it's even worse when you're black. every one wants to calls you King to "affirm you". but i hate that word. i fucking hate it.

every masculine assumption is that of men and maleness and dominance and it gives me no space to be read as just *me*. i continue to float.

i suggest asking more or simply going completely neutral. "you look great" can be said to anyone by anyone for anything. just... calm down
