      What is this weirdness where people decide others are being dictated to if someone tells them what they think they should do or how they shld see a thing? This is called discussion. We make arguments. We agree. We disagree. We take positions. We advocate things. Discourage thingshttps://twitter.com/_mrb/status/944760893178613760 …

      ... so they can't have those traits or be proud of having those traits as soon as you stop liking their writing? Ok...i don't think that's up to you to decide for themselves any more than I think your status as feminine or unfeminine is up to him.

      For the record, I was upset for just this reason...that you didn't engage in discussion with him over it, instead you just thanked him and bowed to his insertion that he should be able to tell you what ur.

      You can carry on hectoring me about how I should read & understand people and respond to them but I won't hear it. I am muting you because I do not need to justify my values and interpretations and language to you or anyone else.

          It doesn't matter. I've said all I needed to for you to now know there is a need for discussion with people who seek to pigeonhole you... not just lazily thank them if they also compliment you.

          Hopefully I've now made it clear to you why you shouldn't tweet people and tell them why they should think and speak about things in exactly the way you tell them to even when they've explained they disagree with your assessment and have a mind of their own. Get over yourself.
