I've been on reddit for years, under a different name, and have participated in this subreddit for a long time. I'm just here to say that my heart is pounding and I feel terrified and exhilerated, because for the first time ever I'm having a debate and countering feminist dogma on Facebook under my real name.

My hands are shaking. I just wanted to share this with you all. The reason I'm not using my regular reddit username for this is because I don't want that slight chance that someone from FB would see this post and then the cat would be completely, utterly out of the bag in terms of my multi-year history of MRA theory and debate.

I have kept my mouth zipped for years because I didn't want to be scorned and attacked in my real persona as an MRA. But I consider it my duty to put the words in my own mouth - so to speak - and risk my personal identity with this controversial position.

Geez, I'm literally full of adrenaline right now. Nervous as heck, butterflies in my stomach, heart's pounding, brain energized. What a rush!

Just wanted to share. Carry on, everyone.
