    How does that paint a good picture in any way?

    I wasn’t trying to paint a good picture, I was being honest.

      Then be honest with yourself for once.

      You say:

      I don’t believe this to be the case,

      How do you reconcile that with “maybe I’m being racist and misogynistic”?

        I am being honest with myself: I may have internalized biases that I’m not consciously aware of. There’s nothing to reconcile here as these two statements are not mutually exclusive or even contradictory in any way.

          I understand what you mean now, and I stand corrected. Thanks for clarifying, friend, and sorry for being so quick at judging you.

          You’re right. Even myself may have some internalized misogyny due to the culture of the country I grew up in. It’s a constant battle between what has been shoved into me as a kid vs. what I’ve later learned or discovered.
