@rubyjones@wandering.shop I remember writing my third book on a computer that everyone shared - so I could only use it when nobody else wanted to. But I didn't mean to say 'I did it so it's possible'. I more meant, 'ooh, that's something I hadn't thought of'. And my partner (a man) *does* have his own room. It's just weird to think how different my writing might be if I'd had that, and to consider whether it's even something I'd want. I like the feminism that isn't about being the same as men.

@paranoiapen@mas.to Yeah, I wasn't assuming that was what you meant, but I wanted to clarify just in case 😅 As an agender person I struggle with the idea that we aren't, at base, the same as men, but certainly society has forced hugely different experiences on us. There's no need to be the same as men, but I don't think there's one single thing there is to be a man either. The frustrating thing is being denied the opportunity to find out who you would be and what you would write with equal resources>
