you’re a (cis) boy and i like you

grave-wisdom:

and these are some reasons why:

you barely ever reinforce patriarchy and when you do and realize it,

you apologize.

not because i was offended,
but because what you said was offensive.

you respect women regardless of colour, size, sexuality and recognize the fact that some women have a penis, and they are to be respected too. 

you don’t care what beauty standards i reject and which ones i accept, as long as i am content with myself, you are happy.  

when i get hyper emotional about my appearance or weight, you don’t body shame me or any one else to make me shut up about it.

even though i know i am annoying.

we can both recognize the fact that yeah, you like my butt. 

but(t) you are far more likely to compliment my on my thoughts. 

we make jokes about misandry together, and you offer to make me a sandwich (even though i am obviously a far superior cook, not due to gender but years of shitty kitchen jobs) 

when i talk about how misogyny affects me you just listen.
that’s it.
you listen. 

you criticize white feminism with me. 

you don’t care how many sexual partners i have had,
and understand the concept of slut shaming. 

and even think consent is sexy. 

you think me talking about my sexuality is awesome, 
and you don’t think a girl talking about her needs is weird. 

and
you are
pretty damned
good looking.
