    abolish gender

    Years and years of therapy and I still do it: mansplain to women, compete with men. I understand that the gender is oppressive but I find it necessary to establish some form of understanding of the other before shaping it into something that looks like the person.

      Agreed. Even if everyone is on the same page that wouldn’t happen overnight, but it really seems like we’ve just been further entrenching it rather than trying to move away from it.
