Tamil peeps (mostly for boys) who follow me on this here bird app (a thread) :

This ain& #39;t a boys vs. girls Jodi number one season 7 dance battle fam. Women are bullies, men are bullies and nb folks are bullies too. I get it.

BUT... yes there& #39;s a but, a big "butt"

TW: bullying

You gotta be open to having dialogues and growing a few extra brain cells and blossom into a wholesome ass Tamil person.

So learn a few things while you& #39;re here on this thread. Need me to read it out loud to you, because I talk too much? I gotchu.

I don& #39;t wanna throw in "Statistically, women are.." but I do want to say -- There& #39;s ladies on here confidently being themselves, putting themselves out there, and breaking glass ceilings that you lot don& #39;t see. They& #39;re trying to thrive and they often do.

And hey, it& #39;s nice to see men do the same thing. But you don& #39;t face slut-shaming, cyberbullying and being told how to dress, and your bodies arent fetishized in the weirdest ways. Y& #39;all can roam freely.

Listen fam, I wanna roam freely too.

Harassing someone is one thing, but full out traumatizing them in the DMs and threatening them with shit ain& #39;t.

People wanna be free, and this kinda bs cages them up, and clips their wings for good. So if they do escape, shit ain& #39;t the same for them anymore.

A person could get a thousand compliments, but that ONE negative comment will negatively affect their mental health -- for days, and even years.

How would I know? It& #39;s the same reason why I wasn& #39;t consistently making content since 2010, and only recently started going awwwf.

Trauma can be related to any of the following
- War
- Intergenerational
- Work/stress related
- Sexual abuse/Physical
- Mental/Emotional
& so much more.

Words and actions hurt in more ways we can fathom.

Bullies can have unaddressed trauma that forces them to behave a certain way the same way victims/survivors do too. It& #39;s all about becoming more aware of this shit.

So check yourself first, before you go around doing reckless shit.

And wait let me put my sociology hat on :

The more you perpetuate abusive/sexist/anti-black behaviour, you& #39;re signaling to others that it& #39;s okay to behave like this.

So when you do check yourself, check your crew too. Y& #39;all can thrive together.

I mean I can easily tell y& #39;all what to do or how to think, but again I& #39;m a nobody. But my boy Anniyan ain& #39;t.
