    Foreword These are a collection of thoughts I have concerning every subject that makes up this experience we call life. I'll try to keep this entry ongoing because that's what life is, an ongoing experience. If you want me to talk about a certain subject/topic and want to know my perspective on it, feel free to ask me or message me your suggestions. Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy. Life is made up of different experiences. Life is also different depending on the different people it is experienced by. Our hardships can be very similar or vastly different from each other, but one underlying value we should adhere to is understanding. I describe myself as Catholic, Chicano, queer, and a younger brother. Now, I don't know how many of you can identify the same as me but all of these adjectives carry different stereotypes, leading to varied responses. However, I would like to share my views on an and all subjects because understanding serves as a basis to love and respect one another in the recent turmoil the world is in. Each topic I decide to discuss about, I guarantee, will be composed with the upmost attention and sincerity. Hopefully I can bring a new perspective and/or better understanding of these topics through my own experiences.

I do not claim to be an expert about any of these topics, these are just my opinions and views on the many aspects of feminism and gender equality. Thanks for reading!

    I'm totally looking for feedback here. Warning f-bombs. _________________________________________________ @}->-- Charlie is a person going through some changes, zie works hard, goes to school, and stays in the shadows as much as possible. Til zie saw a transcendent slam poet. The poet speaks Charlie's truth in ways that seem beyond coincidence. But it looks like everyone in the room is also having their truth told. The moms are old Women Loving Women Lavender Menace lesbians. They mean well and are really good people, but typical of parents, they don't see beyond their own idea of what a kid should be. Charlie wants to say a few words: About the zie and zir shit. Sorry, I know it sucks and it makes you have to work harder and all but fuck if I know what else the narrator should call me. Some people call me she, fuck that. I never did see that as me. But I am also not he... yet. So this zie bullshit seems to work for the narrator, he or she wanted to say "he or she" to mean me. Fuck, what? No. So, when I talk to you I will not use those PC whatever words and then when he or she talks about me he or she will use zie and zir. Zie is like she or he. Zir is like his or hers. You'll live, buck the fuck up.

    My dissertation was rated a 1:1 an it's especially helpful to read if you identify as female and have a hard time trying to get loved ones and friends to believe you have autism. That's actually a fundamental basis of my research. I knew from 12 but didn't get diagnosed until 17 because of those unfortunate social biases. I'm sharing this because I needed this when I was growing up and by "this" I mean something that is not too hard to digest, but accurate and educational, because sometimes understanding is all you need to stay afloat. My original story's title "I won't force you to love me" is kind of confrontational, so it should be interpreted as "I will not be a different person from the one I am, just to gain your approval". There are many more insights that might be added to the end, which couldn't fit in the 10-12k word limit. I'm just so excited to finally share it all, since I'm finally passed the assessment phase.

    This isn't a love story, it's a story about deep passionate intersectionality. Where people thought paths would never reach, stories would never cross, and a bond that has yet to be known. just two complete strangers living in a world of their own. Both having ups and downs, struggles, and dealing with adversities of life. Eve is an 18-year-old girl from Philadelphia who lives with a heart too open for her own good. Though her mind is often heavy with the weight of hazardous tendencies due to her borderline personality disorder, her spirit remains generous. She is thoughtful, articulate, and endlessly kind. She moves through life with a quiet understanding of people, no matter their background or story. Alexander, a 33-year-old man from Tianjin, carries his own regrets. After years of working in Beijing to satisfy his parents and others, he finds himself trapped in a factory job that drains him. Yet within his gentle soul burns a longing for more. On a humid August evening, their paths cross, and everything changes. Eve sees in him a softness the world had forgotten. Alexander sees in her a truth he never knew he needed. Together they find beauty in their differences and courage in their shared humanity. Beneath the same sky, two souls meet not by chance but by fate. So we may began..

    This book is a series of chapters of what I believe it means to be an intersectional feminist. In it, I explore content ranging from the false dichotomy, to rape culture and toxic masculinity. It is important to note that this book will not be for everybody. Some of these concepts are difficult to understand. If you disagree with what I have said, I ask that you exit my book and move on. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion; this is mine.
