Depression, gender abolition, doubting my identity

Your clothes? They were probably made with slave labor? The computer you write on right now? Slave labor? The things you eat? Probably some animal died because of that or got locked inside a cage because of it. And even if you are vegan as much as possible you are consuming resources that could otherwise go to other organisms.

I only buy second hand clothes. You got me on computers but they are needed to function in society. I’m vegan, and there’s nothing wrong with eating enough food to survive. You can’t avoid worker exploitation under capitalism but since when is it an excuse for other bad behaviors? Nobody reinforcing racist stereotypes would turn around and say there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism anyway

You show the world that you can be a woman even if you weren't assigned that gender at birth. You can be a role model for others who similarily struggle with finding a place in this life.

I feel this is mental gymnastics compared to the much more obvious, if gender is meaningless I am reinforcing it and showing everyone biological males who do things designated for women should be categorized as women. It’s the very fact that I set an example for anyone that is he problem.
