Quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet. And calm, nice, too nice, slut, fake, weird, stoic, idiot and funny. Are some of the things that come to mind.

I was called a word similar to “slut” before which is utterly bizarre. I’ve only been with one person (not that it matters how many people one chooses to sleep with).

Anybody who likes Sergeant Schultz is not a Nazi----especially since the guy who played him was Jewish.

I don't believe even the character Sergeant Schultz was for the Nazis; he liked to hang out with different nationalities.

I was called a "Cosmopolitan Slut" when I was a virgin.

It takes all kinds.

"A strong cup of tea"
"Energetic"
"A casual manner of speaking"

That last one was specifically in the context of how I present my science at conferences. I'm still not sure if this was a burn or not.

Are you different in person than you are online?

I think I wanted to project myself as a "better" version of myself online when I was a teenager. Maybe it was the last vestiges of childhood imaginative play. Maybe I just wanted to escape my struggles with school and family for a few hours a day, to pretend things were different. I don't know. I'm not sure that I succeeded in convincing anyone, but I do remember trying to seem less nervous, stronger, more competent, and more independent than I was in reality.

Now I don't want to be or seem like anyone else. I'd rather spend my time on learning about myself and liking who I am.

Moody.

I don't mind the label or the name itself.
But in action? I don't like it.

It means I'm inconsistent and I'm sick of inconsistency of myself.
I hate being this emotionally dysregulated "person" who just can't get rid of the sensitivity sh*t baggage and just control myself.

I wish it's untrue. I'd rather be stoic, unemotional, 'heartless' even.
But this "person" -- this body and head is not. And I hate it.
