Once while I was at work a grown ass man told me “no matter how tough you act you’ll never be a man, just like I’ll never be a woman” and I know he MEANT like “I’m tougher than you because women are weak” but I heard it in Queer and went “Oh…. sweetheart” and he just completely recoiled it was insane

“You’re a woman”: Would be meaner if I wasn’t in girl mode but okay good start
