Re: OP

(Anonymous) 2013-12-07 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm butch *and* a geek woman, and have had this unhealthy attitude as have a lot of women I know, and yes, there is definitely some internalised misogyny about it. Without knowing the OP, OP's wording is very much in accordance with how many less feminism women think who have grabbed onto the strategy of distancing themselves from sexism by looking down on girly things. OP's crisis is something many of us have had to confront at one time or another.

It's common to react against something by doing the opposite - and then ideally learn as you grow to ignore the backlash and do whatever the fuck you want.
