So here we go first post. I don't know what this blog is gonna be about. It's gonna contain a lot of my thoughts and views which is weird considering the site this blog is on. Of course, I will include my thoughts as a submissive and include submissive stuff in general as I continue to learn more an expand my horizons in that department. However, I feel this blog must go beyond that. I'm a submissive but I'm also human.
So something I don't understand is how people and the world needs to see things in black and white, boxes, categories, labels, etc. Obviously, I'm speaking generally not everyone sees the world this way but in my experience people more often than not view the world like this. People seem to think that people are simple and that the world isn't as complex as it actual is. They, for the lack of a better term, want to put other people in a box store it away an not think any further on it. When in reality that person is much more than that box that they were put in.
For example, I'm a straight white male but I'm interested in trans-women meaning male to female. Not in a creepy way or that I'm a "chaser" but in the way where I see them as an a potential relationship partner. Same thing as a cis-woman. If I meet a woman who I'm interested in an she happens to be trans then that's fine. It doesn't matter if she is pre-op, post-op, or non-op. What matters is who she is as a person. Same thing goes for cis-women if I find a woman that I'm interested in an she is a cis-woman then that's fine too. However, the world or society or whatever doesn't seem to think that idea is okay. That those ideals can't exist at the same time in one person. The view point is if you're interested in trans-women and you're a guy then you're gay. First off, it's 2020 there's nothing wrong with being gay in the first place but the reality is that's not the truth. The truth is way more complex than that. The truth is that you view both cis-women and trans-women as equal options for a partner. You're open to both of them an you're okay with whichever way it works out.
Or another example. I'm a metal head. I love metal music, metal events, metal culture, etc. People view metal heads as violent, angry, church burning, devil worshipers. While that may be true in some situations it's not the reality. The reality is most metal heads are the coolest people I've ever met. They're some of the most chill, caring, and understanding people out there. Most of them are also against violence of any kind towards any body as well. Myself I'm a very shy, quiet, sensitive, and feelings driven guy. The complete opposite of the stereotype. Hell, even me being submissive as a guy goes against what people view a "man" as but that's a whole separate blog post
I don't understand how people can put others in boxes or categories so easily. The world is a very complex, deep place. There's so much more meaning to things than people know. I don't understand why it seems so obvious to me an not everyone else. Please everyone remember that the world is full of grey areas. It's not black and white an that is a wonderful thing.
P.S. I'm speaking in a very general terms in this post. It's just easier to write people or the world than explain it every time. I realize not everyone does this or views the world in such a way. It's just in my experience they do.
Anyways. Cheers, have a great one!
