Incorrect Assumptions
Things I've been told throughout my life that turned out to be bullshit
That people cannot and will not change
That because I do well on standardised testing I am intelligent
That because I approach the world logically that I am cold and unfeeling
That because I pay attention to my appearance I am vain (or, that I am queer)
That because my skin is a particular colour my brain is good at maths
That because I am good at maths I cannot be creative and artistic
That there is no point thinking about or trying to make sense of the world
That people are irreconcilably different at a fundamental level
That men and women cannot
just be friends
That I am successful because I earn a certain amount of money
That I am wasting my life when I choose to attend parties
That I am boring when I choose not to attend parties
That your relationships will play out exactly like anyone or anything has told you they will
That you are hard to love
That no one will ever really understand you
That because I experience my feelings intensely I am not masculine, attractive or mentally healthy
That I only exercise to attract potential partners
That drugs can only do me harm
That drugs are only for recreation and pleasure
That there is ever only one path forward
That my aspirations are bizarre and unachievable
