Status Updates From Sissy: A Coming-Of-Gender S...

Clarion- (historical) a shrill narrow-tubed war trumpet

For such a woke person, they didn’t capitalize Black. Tsk tsk. /joking

“…can you forgive a queen for embellishing the truth a teeny bit to reclaim a shred of her dignity?”
I doubt many of the details of their stories for exactly this reason.

Re: comparing oneself to god/jesus, it’s not about that, it’s about showing off my knowledge of the Bible and wanting to make Sunday school teachers proud. Can you blame me?

Yes, yes I can. It’s so out of place and unnecessary. If you aren’t really equating yourself with Jesus, then don’t. They’re coming off pretentious enough without the extra Christian shit

Pusillanimous- timid; cowardly; showing a lack of courage or determination

Acuity- sharpness or keenness of thought, vision, or hearing

Spritely- (especially of an old person) lively; full of energy

I know it’s just supposed to be funny, but I think it just comes off as bitter and insecure all the “I gOt InTo HaRvArD” stuff. Which, I guess whatever, they’re allowed to be bitter and insecure. It’s just not fun to read.

“It was the only way I knew to tell people I had to go, that this relationship was no longer working, was, in fact, abusive.” A little awkward sentence here

Alright maybe I’ve been shitting on them too hard. That paragraph about diversity being about action and sacrifice was good. And damn, they got into a bunch of good schools.

Just accept that you do have male-appearing privilege? Even if you don’t want to be perceived as a man, there is privilege that comes with that perception.
I don’t have strong ties to being white, but there are completely privileges associated with being perceived that way.

Waifish- (of a young person) thin and unhealthy-looking and uncared for

I get the vibe that a lot of these stories are over-exaggerated, which makes it difficult for me to believe anything they say. I also get the vibe that this person perhaps peaked in high school.

Ephemeral- lasting for a very short time

Jocularly- said or done as a joke: jesting; joyfully

Ostensibly- seemingly, apparently

Epistemological- relating to the theory of knowledge, especially with regard to its methods, validity, and scope, and the distinction between justified belief and opinion

Paucity- scarcity

Eponymous- giving a name to something or being named after someone

Nascent- budding; just coming into existence
