When My Man Says– “Does It Even Make A Difference?”
I have this really smart, really empathetic
Super emotionally intelligent
Communications major professor friend from years back who is like
My go-to man for random thoughts–
Anything I need picked, I go to him and straight up
I enjoy him. I often think of him
When I think of who I want to be like, but
Sometimes even he says stuff
IRL that is just so fucking dense it makes you
Want to start a podcast where all you do is
Rant about it, but still like–
Oftentimes he will ask
“Is it really that big of a deal, does it really make
That much of a difference–
I don’t treat people differently based on gender
It’s all the same shit”
And it gets to me sometimes because
I really enjoy him and his perspective, and we agree
On so much, I wonder how it is
That someone who listens to me
Can miss all of it, and can distance himself
So easily from “the hysteria” and I then I realized
If it’s not a big deal
If it makes no difference
Then why doesn’t he just wear a wig, put on a dress
Change his name to Theresa and
Live as her for a few weeks–
Then switch back! No harm no foul!
It’s not a big deal, it makes no difference, right…?
Your male colleagues will think of you the same
Nothing about your life will change…?
So just go ahead and
Prove your point–
I’m very very curious and
Eagerly waiting. This experiment sounds
Awfully entertaining!
