I worked early today. This morning, I joined the daily Zoom meeting (today's theme was about a popular sort of sushi, the California roll's history and secret). After that, from 10 a.m., I started today's work. While working, I suddenly thought this: If Donald Trump were female, would the world change? Or, if most politicians were women, would the world change? Of course, this must be a silly idea because one's sexuality should be only one essence of one's being, which partially determines one's character. Definitely, recently, I have been thinking about sexuality or genders too much.
I won't believe any too-easy, silly theories that say "men are more logical than women" (I guess why this too-easy theory still "rules" us is because at the back side of history, men tended to "crucify" women unfairly). From this autistic guy's viewpoint, I accept that some men are certainly logical (and some women are, too). However, then (as you know, my nature is too "twisted" to think several things squarely), I want to say this: Is it good for us to think anything so logically? Sometimes, people tend to prefer having emotional empathy rather than logical unison. I believe that is also natural.
Thinking like this... I thought about my past. When I was a teenager, as I've written once before, I was blown by some classmates' random or meaningless claims that said I was a fool who must never be normal. That could cause me to train in this sort of logical thinking skills, even though I am also a chaotic guy. Also, at that period, I had been taught that I must get so masculine to lead women (you must think this too unbelievable, but once people believed such a meaningless bullshit). At that time, I was a little bit fat, so I was never an attractive guy who was loved by many female classmates. So, I felt that I had already been judged as a freak or a "flop" of the human race. However, times have changed.
After today's work, I joined the English conversation class. There, we learned how to make any "imaginary" or "unreal" situations by using the word "if". For example, "if I were neurotypical, I would try driving a car", etc. In addition, we learned how American graduation is different from Japanese graduation. I have been living such a very flat or plain life, so this English conversation lesson that teaches me seasonal changes is wonderful. If I were a teacher, what could I teach my students as a mentor?
