my monologue

Nikita 2022-03-21 09:02:44

In the beginning, I was not one of them. I found them inevitable, touching them by chance, and being with them suddenly.

At first, I couldn't understand them either, and like many people, I watched them from a distance, almost silently.

It wasn't until after this suddenness that I started to face up to the oppression I suffered, and I started to want to be a person.

When I tried to be a person, I was misunderstood, mocked, bullied, and shut out of my family.

My dignity has long been trampled in the mud, and when I wanted to pick up my dignity, they tried to step on my dignity lower in various ways.

Therefore, when ridicule spreads, coercion surrounds, and family affection becomes conditional charity, I can only move forward more firmly.

I don't want to be an enslaver, an oppressor, a hegemon, I just want to be a human being.

Enslavers, oppressors, and hegemons often make rules, they think men come first, then men.

And I know that first there are people, and then there are men and women.

I am a man first, and then a woman.

I should have the rights that people are born with, I should have the freedoms that people are born with, and I should also have the rights given to people by society.
