By wondering how we celebrate people who aren't gay appropriating homophobic slurs because they have been trained that there's something wrong with being straight. Or how we get to the point where we celebrate people who aren't Trans appropriating that while being sexist in the process. Or the sexist "non-binary" absurdity. And to top it off, we celebrate "Pride" by having a pi**ing match to see who can be the trashiest person in public. In front of children. All the while getting praise and affirmation for being "stunning" and "brave". Of course nobody has any idea what the real point of Pride is supposed to be, other than taking the opportunity to spread the lie that Trans activists started the riot. Nobody remembers what it's about. And nobody cares.

i just meant: you seem to be conflating a lot of disparate concerns into one very long tirade. and if now, in your latest reply, it only really boils down to an aversion to sex positivity and drug use, the transphobia of the first comment seems even more targeted.

Continue keeping myself in the closet in front of my colleagues.

One year in NYC—24, enjoyed myself, but no deep connections with new friends/partners. Came to hopefully open the door on a variety of opportunities, but something tells me that spending another year here will not help that. Money flies, space is cramped, not thrilled with my office, hate winter. I miss LA a lot—I miss driving, the weather, the space, people...but everyone tells me I have to give NYC at least 2 years. Thoughts?

I feel like I’ve lost myself since joining McK. My whole world has become about work. I love my job but I’m not the same person I started and I feel I don’t connect with my friends and family the way I use to. I’m not sure if I’ve grown, or lost a part of myself. Is this growing up or do I need to make a career change?

I know this isn’t a marriage therapy bowl, but my husband has a really terrible tendency of saying things like “you’re being really mean” and completely shutting down during a disagreement when i objectively am not being mean, just truthful or vocal about how i feel about something. It’s a really convenient argument for him because it enables him to either be the victim and me the villian, or forces me to concede my stance and not reach a true resolution. Any tips on dealing with the irrational?
