      Didnt downvote but ill bite.

      Dont self-hate. There’s so many self-proclaimed misogynistic chauvanists to hate.

      You offer your humanity. That is unique and not about the gender binary.

      Your intrinsic traits mean people are more likely to listen to you.

      You get to be inclusivity batman

      Gender is made up. A social construct used to divide, for the purpose of economic imperialism. If youre up for a book:

      Self-love is needed if you’re going to uplift others. Your intentions seem to be in the right place. Meet that with humility, humanity and accountabilty to learn and grow from mistakes and you’ll do fine.

      One more thing that feels relevant, a sentiment from a friend:

      I think that a lot of people on the left are focused on the idea of forgiveness coming from the people who were wronged, but I think that’s a misguided notion. It’s not my place to seek forgiveness from those I have wronged, and I don’t have any obligation to forgive those who have wronged me. I think that the harsh reality is that we live in an unjust world, where justice only exists if we fight tooth and nail for it, and will it into existence with our choices and actions.

      So then if you believe what you’re saying, be a part of the fight to make our grass the greener

      Well for starters the meme is BS, check the other comments. Or just use common sense; there are plenty of traditional tribal societies around today, many of which are well documented. Have you EVER seen a woman from one of those communities hunting big game? I’ve been trying to think of one for the last 5 minutes and I can’t. I’m sure it happens but not a single example comes to mind.
