It is telling that girls are trying to remove the parts of their bodies for which they are objectified and men are trying to gain those same parts. Girls dissociating from sexualization/objectification and men trying to become sexualized/objectified. This is horrifying all around. And for lesbians there’s a few things going on but for butch lesbians it’s not hard to see the appeal and pressure of appearing like and being treated like a straight man rather a masculine/GNC. Change your body so that people will exalt you for having the same personal qualities as they ridiculed you for before.

I’m going to be sick. But thankfully I’m finding more opportunities to engage others in discussion and spread awareness. And Ellen Page’s mental breakdown is going to function similarly to JK embracing her tervenness, but in America. The more we actually see and hear from Ellen the more people are going to be interested in finding out what’s going on.
