hi, so i recently discovered im more left wing (democratic) than right wing (republican), but im still not the most politically correct. earlier today we were discussing abortion and i said i felt bad for the women who the anti abortion people affect, but my friend corrected me and said i meant "people who get pregnant", because men (like trans men but still men) can get pregnant. and not all women get pregnant so it doesnt affect them. she said it gently but i feel like an ass</3

I don't think you're a bad person, because you're questioning this.

I will say, it's weird that I've seen you and 1 other recent account that has a similar story, both of which are new and posting a lot about Russia. If you're legit, I hope you can learn about your heritage and also unilaterally denounce what Russia/Putin is doing to Ukraine.
