Telling someone what they do or don’t “need to add” when they are respectfully sharing their personal experience doesn’t sound like acceptance to me. I can only imagine how much better your life can still get.
- discoursism 9y agoI don't think, "questionable opinions about other people's choices which don't affect you at all," count as personal experience. Unless by "personal experience," we mean, "all possible utterances."
- richard_todd 9y agoPhasma’s post acknowledges that the opinion is questionable by comparing it to an ideal (that her appearance/presentation shouldn’t matter), and calling that disparity “something I struggle with.” That was my interpretation of the post, anyway. Re-reading it now, I still see it the same way. If you do not, then clearly we will interpret the responses to the post differently as well.
