Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt
At uni there was a group of four girls in my halls known as “The Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt“. They were slim, conventionally attractive, feminine, confident and very bubbly and the men were obsessed with them. And then there was… me, a shy, average build and not very feminine woman, and I was invisible. Some men seemed actively disgusted that I had the nerve to even exist in the same sphere as these godesses, while the nicer men would be flirty and shy with The Angels and talk to me like I was just One Of The Lads, a non-threatening, sexless being. I did wonder if I should starve myself, start wearing dresses, feign more stereotypically feminine interests etc but I just felt so ugly that it all seemed hopeless and I was doomed to be The Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt forever. Now I’m in my 40s and a bit more confident. I’ve learned to embrace my non-femininity and I feel more comfortable than I ever did feeling exposed in dresses and struggling to walk in heels. I enjoy my nerdy, “masculine” hobbies and thought the female colleagues who judged me for buying an Xbox were the ones missing out. And I have a wonderful partner who has never tried to change me… I still have no body confidence and struggle with self-esteem but it has got better. I see these incel types who think all women have to do to get laid is exist and they don’t realise that a lot of us women are invisible to them and struggle just as much as they do, we just tend to blame ourselves while they blame women. I wish they could also see that teenage insecurities do get better and let go of some of Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt

Kind of related, I remember back in the Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt when I was like 14, I played Neopets and I changed my gender and name to something female. I thought it was a huge advantage because most men/boys would either treat me like I was incompetent or they would bend over backwards to accommodate me. I would make bank playing them the fool. Obviously Neopets was heavily monitored and this was pre-social media, so there was very little creepy predator stuff going on. I still have the account too if anyone still plays and wants some Neopets stuff. Now a days I play a lot of poker and I see the exact same stuff. If you are smart and good at games you can make a killing off the Book Cats Love Books Magic Hawaiian Shirt of men who will discount your intelligence or abilities. Stay winning queens.
