Very well said.

literally grew up in prime misogyny zone.

Listening to old Opie and Anthony clips where they called women holes. Was my 11 to 16 background noise.

You are right. My experience of what prevented me from deep ending:

Empathy. Empathy. Empathy.

I remember the look on my first girlfriends face when I was such a piece of shit to her. I was an asshole.

That internalized guilt feeling of hurting another person made me change.

Dated a man, saw the amount of trauma men can put vulnerable people in.

Allowing your worldview to change with new evidence. Admitting fault. All increibly valuable. But the act of putting yourself in someone else's shoes and really understanding it, or at least wanting to, cannot be beat.

I'm scared for the algorithm generation. I was and to an extent still am terminally online, but your interests being weaponinzed against you is another beast completely. Being too young to know you're being pigeon holed into hate

Happy to have changed. Love is the thing
