I am not obtuse, in my opinion. My personality is consistently perceived as obtuse, hence the name. The label has been consistently applied to me my entire life, so I co-opted the word for myself.
People call me "white knight" and "social justice warrior" and whatever a lot, too. But I like the word obtuse better. This obtuse side of men only emerges when something bothers me, usually of a societal nature.
I'm right about this meme and if I was better at expressing myself I wouldn't get so many downvotes. Being downvoted for being right isn't actually a hobby of mine, but sometimes it sure feels like it is.
