It's weird

2015-07-31 00:25:28.801903+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

It's weird how people correct me when they think I'm a woman.

I’ll spare you any more but it went on and on and on. I even saw one person (who I blocked because I don’t need to see this sort of nuttiness) on a friend’s Facebook share refer to my work as “typical white women liberal logic”, whatever the heck that means. Time after time what I was assumed to be a woman, and those that did so were usually the ones that immediately tried to mansplain away every seed of logic and well-sourced information that I had planted.
