Tataaaa this is my one year blogiversary. I can’t believe I’ve made it that long! So, I guess it’s time to take a look back. However, I don’t think that what I’ve been writing is the interesting part of this story, but rather how I’ve changed.
I started off wanting to write. It wasn’t that I [...]

Maybe this is the sort of examining that doesn’t lead anywhere. The sort that’ll just come to the point of shit-is-fucked-up – but we knew that anyway.
So, what I’ve been wondering is: What’s my fascination with masculinity? Not with men in general; with the ideals of masculinity, images of heroes and loners, icons and superstars. [...]

In a seminar a professor once started asking every single student how he or she was doing gender.

As I am the one and only student in all gender classes, who feels the urgent need to talk about kink, this keeps happening:
