Recently, the Washington Post interviewed several women who had gone through a sex change operation. Now they lead life as men and during that time they managed to literally look at many things with different eyes.
The history of one of them - or rather, one of them - contains quite a lot of moments that can not be described otherwise than epiphany, tells Yandex.
Zander Keig, 52, a Coast Guard veteran at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego, describes himself before gender reassignment as "a courageous radical feminist who is always ready to stand up for her rights and challenge injustice."
Now, says Keig, when he does exactly the same thing, in response, he hears accusations of menspleiling, that he takes up too much space (obviously, this is about menspreading) and that he is only one white privileged heterosexual man. This is despite the fact that the origins of Cag Mexican.
“When I say that anger or a propensity to violence can signal psychological trauma or depression, they simply do not listen to me,” says Keig. - It all comes down to the theses "all men are prone to violence" and "their actions have no excuse."
He also noted that women expect him to receive special treatment and flexibility - for example, letting them speak first, letting them go forward when boarding the bus, etc. According to him, this destroys one of his basic convictions, which is that women are not the weaker sex and do not need concessions and condescension on the part of men.
Even Keig notes that now he has the impression that he is on his own: no one except his relatives and close friends, doesn’t care whether he is doing well. He even remembers the moment when he realized it.
“One morning I was riding a bus,” says Cag. - Including me, six people rode there - five men and one woman. She discussed something loudly on the phone and, characterizing the men, said “men - such goats!”.
Keigu did not like it, he looked up at her, and then looked at the reaction of other men on the bus. They were absolutely calm, as if they had not heard anything. In the meantime, the woman noticed his gaze on herself and added “some goat on the bus is staring at me.”
“I was shocked because I myself had been in such situations, only it was the other way around,” says Keig, recalling that there were always women nearby who were ready to support him (then still her) and together report off the next impudent one. “I'm not sure that I fully understand why those men were silent then, but it made an indelible impression on me.”
