Time to offend someone? I mean, time to set down something that's been bothering me.

I don't hate men who were born men and feel male. I don't think they should be spending their time thinking how lucky they are compared to me or telling me how brave I am.

The best thing these people who've never heard of me can do for me is keep living their lives without any thought to whether they're 'wasting' their 'privileged' status because they don't campaign for queer awarenesss, spend time consciously loving their cisgenderedness, etc.

(Basically, putting aside the gender thing I chose as an example, what I'm trying to say is: if I was a starving child in China, I'm sure I wouldn't give a flying frell whether a Western child ate up her carrots.)

edit: I expand upon this rant in my LJ comments.
