Cigars. Whisky. Guns. Camping. Bonfires. Loud explosions. Fireworks. Fast cars. A lot of my interests are like that. But I feel ostracized. For not being feminine. For not liking feminine things. And not being progressive like that. I can't cry. It just doesn't happen. I get mad. I get upset. I get sad. But I can't cry. I'm not afraid to. I don't care what others think. It just doesn't happen. And I feel hated for it. I feel attacked for it. You see it all the time. They say to cry more. To be feminine. Otherwise you're one of the bad men. Who are causing all the problems in the world. But I promise you I'm harmless. I just want to sit out back. Pour a glass of whisky. Mow the lawn. And watch the sun set. ------------------------- Archived from https://theredarchive.com/post/828520
