yes. everything is gendered for gender warriors.
i'm cishet and i have a garden and most women i date think it means I'm secretly gay. the cat doesn't help.
gardening is considered feminine, or for old people. not for younger men who are supposed to be virile and dominant. they should be hunting.
Well it looks like your garden has at least a double function - it filters out women with weird ideas about gender and sexuality π
Just grow an unkempt beard and wear overalls.
Thatβs wild, Iβm sorry you gotta deal with that.
Survival skills + demonstrated empathy/care with other living beings are positives for any person. Hopefully you find someone who appreciates that. /gen
Weird. Have they seen how much you can provide from a garden?
Also, having a garden doesn't preclude one from hunting... whatever that means in the modern era. You can only eat so much meat.
Sure, but the OP doesn't say "gender warriors", it says "Western man", which includes a whole lot more people than the tiny minority of those bigots.
Sorry that you live in a bubble of bigots, but it is not a general or universal experience.
