About Tree of Finches
Ok, so I’m not really a tree. Sorry to have kept you going for a bit there. I’m actually a radical pro-feminist, radical environmentalist pagan-ish male with lots of little voices in my head that constantly chirp about really heavy subjects.
As a male, I have been indoctrinated, beginning before I was even born, into Patriarchy. That is to say, sexism, misogyny, priviledge, entitlement, and willful ignorance is as much a part of my social makeup as speaking English. Just because I make an attempt to “get it” does not in any way make me enlightened or “decent” or anything else positive. If I’m a couple inches above the bar of “average d00d”, I don’t need a cookie for that.
My writings are a journal of what’s going on with me as I observe the world and myself while attempting to keep my eyes open to oppression at all times.
