also the male validation may not be 100% due to trauma and could partly be a side affect of living in a patriarchy but semantics. The important thing is that I’m working on NOT always feeling like I have to impress men, and I can very much feel the difference compared to how I was a few years ago.

I’ve been dying to say that aloud to someone so that’s why I’m putting it into the yikyak void instead
