When I was a child, I was more often with girls than with boys so it seemed to me I preferred them. If I became friendly with a boy (and I did, as early as and even before kindergarten and 1st grade) that made it seem like he was special, and not like the others, although I suppose he was.
And now I like feminism. I like that it's become more acceptable to say so. But I believe a lot of people who are at all sensitive to inequality issues really suffered at a young age by being told girls shouldn't be a certain way or this sort of thing is off limits or it's up to you to keep boys away from you and shame shame shamey B.S.
So I know these things. And I really should put myself to sleep soon.
