Tuesday 8/30

On gender neutral kids' rooms:
"But if you paint the room yellow and all, then if you have a boy, it's like 50/50, and a couple years down the road it's gonna cause issues and stuff." [waving hands around head, indicating crazy]

Question: What are some privileges that men enjoy from their gender role?
Answers: "We can pee standing up."
"We can pee anywhere."

On addressing issues with binary gender roles:
"I just don't think there's anything wrong with gendering. I mean, that's just how it is."

Question: Have you ever worn something that physically hurt you?
Answer: "Once, I put on a small pair of pants. My roommate thought they would fit and I was like 'Nah' but I just put them on."

On Provincetown, MA:
"Yeah, I'm from Boston and we all say, 'Don't go to P-town, or Gay-town.' ...It's like something on TV or something, like guys in panties and drag queens--I mean, it's blatantly gay, like everyone is 95% gay."
