    HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I’VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER-THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD ‘HATE’ WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

        I don’t feel I’ve read nearly enough to explain this properly but it’s on me for uttering the words so here goes. Sexual dissent is any act going against the established sexual order. This concerns gender identity, gender roles and sexual orientation. The rules being challenged can be tacit social codes or official laws. For many members of the LGBTQ+ community, existing is dissent. A cis person may be dissident by challenging or subverting their assigned role in society. Feminism did a lot in this regard. The goal is to reach a greater level of freedom in the way we express ourselves.
