If I had a nickel for every time someone wrote a relatively long comment analyzing my online behavior on here, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

It’s weird that someone replied to your post seeking attention about your identity? Only one of my sentences analyzed your behavior. The rest were a response to your post from the point of view of the average person.
Now it just seems like you’re absolutely trolling if you’re going to try to mock people who reply.

It’s funny, comments like yours are exactly what I had in mind when I made this post in the first place. People can go wild with assumptions about my identity, but if I play into it for fun, suddenly I’m “seeking attention”? When men post like I do, people interact with the content; but when a woman posts, her entire behavior gets dissected and assumptions are made just to discredit her, no matter how harmless the content is.
And I wasn’t mocking anyone.

Probably because it’s so rare, that it freaks men out. Please be mindful of us cavemen, who are afraid of things we have never seen before.
You are scaring the cave people!

Yes, this is attention seeking behavior lol. You are making posts about yourself, about what you’re up to each day, about opinions that you imagine people have of you.
You have created this strawman argument that anyone questioning that you are who you are wants you to post nudes or something.
You know what you’re doing, lol, no need to be evasive about it.
This is the internet, we are all bots here. There is no such thing as identity.

Calling it “attention-seeking behavior” ignores the fact that this is just my posting style. You can go all the way back in my post history where I explicitly say I have a stream-of-consciousness approach: something crosses my mind, I look through my Insta saves for a meme that fits, and I share it.
Men never get asked to prove that they’re men or questioned like this.

I have a question. It’s about this part:
Why does this matter?
You are somebody who believes that there is no such thing as identity on the Internet, so why even ask this question? What’s the point? What changes about life if this question goes unanswered?

I’m sorry, but you’re being so obnoxious here. If you’re that upset why not just block a person and move on?
It’s not even targeted at me and I’m getting annoyed
