Why celebrate the day I got pushed out of some random vag**a against my will?[Otis Milburn: No one hates birthdays, Maeve.]
The basic human form is female. Maleness is a kind of birth defect.
You’re born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts.
