Fandom Problem #13,094:

The point of all my research and crowdsourcing (from people I know, mind, not tumblr children) was to portray a gay man realistically, with nuance, and without offensive stereotypes. It was not to covertly indicate to the reader that I am gay.

I am not gay.

I've never been gay.

I'm ace.

Fandom Problem #12,107:

When lesbians shit talk other lesbians who like a straight ship.

That’s it. That’s the problem.

This is a good interview she did in 2006 with NPR

The line from the book

"Men are suffering. They have different problems than women have, but they don't have it better. They need our sympathy, they need our love, and they need each other more than anything else. They need to be together."

Kinda sums up the whole experiment.

I will say there were plenty of other factors that led to her going ending her own life, reintegrating was one problem, there was also the way feminists decided to treat her after she had done her whole thing, something broke and the whole 18 months under cover as a man was a big contributing factor.

Till this day most feminists will not accept the stuff she found out and mock you for showing what she found out.

Its also horrifying she "found out" a genuinely horrifying truth, tried fighting against it and no one even cared. Not even the victims of the system she tried to fight for seemed to even care. Like she found out this truth and the response she got was either rage and bullying directed at her by her former side and apathy from the people she was trying to help.

She went through over a year of hell just to be mocked and then die.

I knew a rapist who was an absolute ride-or-die friend to his gamer bros. Like, give the last dollar from his pocket to a friend who got a flat tire, and then turn around and go rape a Freshman that evening.

I knew a vicious child abuser who wept like a baby when her dog died.

The nastiest human being on the planet nevertheless feels obscurely melancholy sometimes, or has high spirits when they step out doors on the first warm day of spring, or has opinions on their favorite TV show and which side the toilet paper should hang on and whether or not the room should be cold or warm when you go to sleep.

We're all still just people. Complex, with fully-realized interior worlds.

None of that will save you from becoming a monster, if you decide to do monstrous things.

I personally got through something like that when doing pokemon smash or pass a while ago when it was more popular.
