Set em, let em be known. Evaluate offenders: ignorance, disrespect, necessity? I think they can be “soft” which I guess is sort of against the idea. I think in life we need to be flexible though. I guess this is all to say - it’s good to know yourself and your needs. You are absolutely welcome to leave spaces that oppress you. Not all oppression spheres can be ignored, and instead must be handled. Not all boundary breakers are oppressive, sometimes things must be met regardless of feelings. Sometimes people break things because they forget (a simple example is dead-naming which I think can happen with people accidentally - it’s sort of an extreme example but it’s what came to mind). Sometimes you need to meet people half-way because that’s just life. You can find a way to honor other people’s boundaries while honoring your own. Thanks for asking, although it felt like it was sort of out of left field =P!
Ooo, hahaha! I gotcha! a) Thank you! I am black and white by nature, and I think at certain points we have to fight our nature and when it comes to interacting with other humans this for sure is something we can find compromise with. Also, having an opinion that never shifts of grows is pretty freakin’ rough. Oh, I just meant it was outta nowhere only on account of me just making a dumb joke =P! Thank you though =)
It’s good to have boundaries =)
What’s your take on boundaries?

That’s a great take. It’s not black and white.
I don’t know this expression but it was a joke based off the OP yes.
