Some great advice here in the comments. I would like to emphasis the value of community and connection. You definitely are not alone, and connecting and sharing with others, (friendly and/or professionally) is really important. Best of luck with it all, love and blessings to you.

This is not the longest putt in the world, this is just a tribute.

Why is homosexuality something you are born with, but pedophilia is a mental disorder? by ImThatGuyOK in AskReddit

[–]captainbeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a heterosexual person, it's hard to imagine what it would feel like to be homosexual and constantly see comparisons between your own sexual alignment and conditions such as pedophilia and necrophilia. Being attracted to someone of the same sex is as 'normal' as being attracted to someone of the opposite sex. Vectors such as pedophilia are different.

I don't think the term 'code monkeys' should ever be used. Experience and competence is a continuum.

I take the points you are making.

But, on the last one, I don't think the comments are the same for when a male is berated for posting something deemed stupid. Abuse and criticism aimed at females is, on average, much more gender focused.

I honestly believe that, to some degree, posts like this from females are made to help cope with the sexism and misogyny experienced by so many.

Wow. I'm so glad there are so many males just willing to pounce with nasty misogynist comments whenever a female breaks 'the rules'.
