Though a "Diary" my online diary is a work of FICTION.

It may at times strongly reflect actual events of my life, often how I honestly perceived them and display my genuine reactions. But not always and everything contained within should be treated as a fiction.

This is also a personal diary, so by reading it you are violating my privacy. And as it is a personal diary you are not allowed to hold anything you read in it against me, as you shouldn't have been reading it anyway.

Also, this diary is not to be read by anyone who has gone out with me, would like to go out with me in the future, or suspects I may like to go out with them.

Maybe they aren't always, always

Stayed up too late reading "2016 Southern Sociological Society Presidential Address: Are Millennials Cracking the Gender Structure" Barbara J. Risman First Published March 6, 2017 Research Article 
https://doi-org.ezproxy.otago.ac.nz/10.1177/2329496517697145 (the link probably only works with Otgao Uni library login).  It is not a fun read, I am just humble bragging about doing my motherfucking homework.

So slept through my alarm again.  Not helped by a bit of lying awake being annoyed by things my trans-sister has bitched about over dinner.  She ripped in to me when I was talking about a movie i watched about the Alfred Benning murder of the 1970s.  The movie suggesting it was  reverse battered woman scenario where a husband snapped in an attempt to escape the control of the other is apparently just glorifying how men kill women.  My trans-sisters feminism is very aggressively "men are always in the wrong, no matter the details of the situation" - so it isn't a huge surprise.  If only I could project myself back into eight year old me and prevent my parents even having the sex that created that git.

And I am now late for the class I was up doing readings for.
