I think it’s really excessive how ppl expect that bc u have ur phone with u that u are available to communicate at all times tbh I don’t respond to ppls messages ALL THE TIME and not bc I fell asleep or am out of service or have a good excuse even but bc I just don’t want to be accessible or in a conversation, all the time, always

Nobody before the cell phone was available to communicate at every second of the day and I expect to be able to draw a boundary and respond to my friends when i can be fully present in interacting with them

People should be allowed to respond to you when it is comfortable for them to do so

i’m really sick of the ‘male/female’ natural interest dichotomy. growing up, males are asked to go help fix cars and mow lawns etc. and females aren’t. then, as you get older, men laugh like ‘lol u don’t even know what a radiator is’ and it’s like no we weren’t socialised to ‘like’ that stuff. it’s not because we’re naturally bad at mechanics or physical labour – it’s because we were never taught. they don’t teach us as children but patronize us when, as adults, we don’t know much about it.
