I don’t go on OKCupid anymore because I’m so tired of the most compatible men on there being pretentious middle class college students who only understand feminism as presented in a college course and absolutely nothing about classism and ableism

I got tired of being reminded that I’m considered the dregs at the bottom of the barrel because I don’t have a college degree, even by people who were supposed to know better 

Like nothing about me is important if I don’t have Typical Success Milestones under my belt

Fucks me up

I imagine I’d feel the same if I spent long enough there.

Especially since a lot of my dealbreakers are around things like cognitive disability, and it’s really really disappointing to see people listed as highly compatible with me, only to find they have horrible ideas about disability, or yes, high school dropouts (I’m that, too), etc.
