  • working with a manager is not automatically a hierarchy of power. the keys is non coercion and voluntairy association.

    as long as you can chose to switch manager, can choose to work without manager, can access the information your manager has, can resolve conflicts with your manager as equals, and have reasonable control over the distribution of the profits, all without threat to your livelyhood, this is not a hierarchy of power.

    you do not have to do everything by yourself. thats what we got each other for. as equals :3















  • you are right, there is not much reclamatory or rebellious on a societal level about cis men (in their role as such) taking up the space they need and even less so, when they take up more space than they need.

    i think it is still positive when people - including cis men - overcome their insecurities and take care of themselves. but i understand if that is not what you meant with your post.

    i would give the commenter the benefit of the doubt tho and assume that they are not a troll as well as even restrain from assuming their gender and therefore the reclamatory value of their action.

    personally, i still struggle with internalizing that i can sit comfortably on public transport without that invalidating my feminitiy or making me a toxically masculine man
