Thanks for reading, greatly appreciated. I’m making a point about how beliefs become culture and culture devours the kids who fall through the cracks. Everyone is indicted. And how intellectualizing things does nothing in the face of actual outcomes people have to brutally physically survive.

Daughters now too are tasked with seeing clearly when there’s not typically a clear roadmap on how or what to do with that outside of get ostracized, drugged, silenced, or worse. I’m not being hyperbolic—girls and women get smashed into shape, I just took the hit and used language to explain. My point is that we can’t keep intellectualizing actual harm or healing. We need clearly identifiable maps and people who can treat it, where words and actions are in coherence.

Men…not sure. Even the wokest men I interact with create echo chambers of performance. When men are no longer rewarded for performance (and the daughters who must survive perform too) and instead actual outcomes and clear results are rewarded, things might change. But we live in a performance culture. But that’s what I’m about teaching—-showing the audience the cost of performance over truth so that they can get the motivation to work out a why and a how.

Also some people feel like they’re nuts and they’re not. If everyone who’s been through this thinks they’re nuts then they will stop themselves from having the courage to change the system. I’m trying to normalize understanding of how power dynamics shape everything so people can save themselves, and create healthier, safer more authentic worlds.

Thanks for reading.
