I tend to opt out of conversations about masculinity and femininity especially the way they’re usually framed because, frankly, they’re often rooted in white, colonial, and patriarchal ideas that don’t reflect my lived experience or the communities I come from. The definitions most people work from are rigid, binary, and covered in misogyny. They’re less about truth or liberation and more about control and conformity.

And pleaseeee be for realllll, these conversations are usually dense as hell, full of performative language, and end up recycling the same tired takes with very little nuance. I’m not interested in debating “what makes a real man” or “how women should show up” through a lens that was never built for us in the first place.

My focus is on embodiment, liberation, and showing up as whole people not fitting into boxes someone else built.

If you’re waiting for someone else to “activate” your feminine energy, you may still be outsourcing your worth and identity.

I think I want to talk about conversations worth having. Lol bc I accidentally allowed some podcast content to enter my algorithm and I fucking wanna vomit at the conversations being had.
