Why I Love Sweet Guys
I don’t love the rebel.
I don’t lust after the bad boy.
I don’t want to be with the tough guy.
I love sweet men.
I love kind men, generous men, thoughtful men.
Murder.
Rape.
Abuse.
Greed.
Lust.
Privilege.
Racism.
Sexism.
Homophobia.
With so many men at the heart of darkness,
I need constant reminders that the good guys exist.
That there are sweet guys.
Magnanimous, caring men.
Pro-Feminist men.
Anti-racist men.
Men who don’t fear anyone’s sexuality.
I couldn’t keep fighting the good fight if they didn’t exist.
It helps to remind me what I’m fighting for.
