    I mean this works both ways.

    You can’t tell people to be accepting and considerate, but refuse to budge on yourself.

    That’s how growth happens.

    Edit: I don’t care if you downvote. But if you’re expecting others to change but not yourself, you’re part of the problem. This is why people don’t take us seriously.

      Society routinely expects particular groups of people to change so that other groups don’t have to. Society itself is unfairly expecting us to change, and why should we?
