I was tagged by queendeedee to list five things that I like about myself:
-My near-effortlessly glamorous hair.
-My butt. It’s a nice butt--plush, full-figured, and fun to grab--and a number of people have told me so.
-I give really good advice. I’ve been consistently told that by a lot of people too.
-I’m unapologetically myself. By that I mean that I live my life authentically and don’t keep very many secrets. (”secrets” meaning things like the fact that I’m gay, that I like guys of size, that I’m agender, etc. Basically things our culture says I should be ashamed of.) It makes life more fulfilling, and it’s brought the right people into my life so I never feel like I have to pretend to be someone I’m not.
-My tastes in music. I don’t mean the kind of music I listen to; I’m sure everyone thinks they have great taste in music, because all of the stuff they listen to is (assumedly) stuff they like. I mean how much time I’ve been able to put into listening to music, discovering new music, trying out new genres, and honing my sense of what I like in music. I also mean how deeply I think about music as a listener. It’s lead to me having a music collection that I really, really love, that feels especially customized to my preferences.
