        @MelissaBearTrix Yes, I do. I might be a cis male *checks - yep* but I'm a gay cis male, and the potential for crap is always there.

            I’m concerned for everyone else’s safety but not so much my own. I do get concerned about the consequences for my family and friends if I was to get hurt.

            I’m sure the fact that I’m a large white cis man contributes. I think my form of ADHD contributes more. In a crisis I get calmer and more focused.

            I used to love the deep wide area focus I experienced flying hang gliders years ago, especially when taking off and landing.

            The digitization capabilities in 1997 were quite primitive. This is me taking off from the launch on top of Mt Holyoke in 1997 with my 225 Wills Wing Falcon hang glider. I take off from a cliff, he...

              @MelissaBearTrix I am a cis white male who knows how absolutely bonkers the world is, particularly other cis white males.

              I appreciate how much worse it is for people who aren't in my situation too.

                  @PatrickoftheG @MelissaBearTrix Same here, but I don’t worry much about safety. I’m old enough that it doesn’t matter too much anymore.

                    As a white cis male, I value the sense of security the Atlantic Ocean provides.

                      Just like any other woman, I have to always be aware of my safety when going out. I carry my keys in my hand. If you know, you know...

                      When I could present as a dude, nobody touched me. I also learned the skill of being the fastest runner to avoid bullying, but never competed as I despised the hell out of competitive sports.

                          As a cis male with some kind of strong build, I'm rarely concerned about safety, and despite this once I got followed by two guys who wanted to beat the shit out of me because reasons (they mentioned some vague improper driving style, which was probably false).

                          I managed to evade the confrontation by locking myself in my car.

                          That was a scary experience, but it didn't leave any kind of trauma, and I still feel safe when outside.

                          This always makes me think about privilege.

                              @MelissaBearTrix The secret of breaking things is to hit repeatedly and very hard on the same spot, head knucks and punches. Also I do this only if attacked or to protect another disabled against a troop> take the biggest of them and bring him down and the rest will flee.

                                  @MelissaBearTrix Testicles, or a straight kick on his knee etc all work well, I concentrate to leave them a scar for life so that they never again dare to approach me.

                                    Do you think of safety when leaving your home or castle?

                                    P.s. as a trans, I always think of safety before leaving the castle, I also know there is a higher chance that i will be in a unsafe situation

                                    @MelissaBearTrix So in short, yes I think about safety when going outside, not for mine but for others.
