I'm glad you can do that for yourself! I'm so used to feeling like "other" that it surprises me to feel met, and to remember that maybe it's a systemic othering, and there may be many people out there who share my experience.

I've been struggling a bit with the whole male perspective lately in my xin yi (Tai Chi) class. My experience (what I notice changing in my body) is so different from what my instructor describes. I've had to do a lot of stepping back, reminding myself that just because I experience something different, it doesn't necessarily mean it's wrong or that I'm on the wrong path. Keeping in mind that my body is very different than his and the other men in the class has been helpful as well. It's nice to hear other women struggle with this stuff as well. Thanks for sharing.
