Damn, the only leeway I ever got was for being smart. Sure me being trans certainly helped with the lesbian professor, but she was only giving me leeway because I excelled in her classes. Turns out gen ed English professors dgaf if you go in already writing at a college level
Yeah I was taught to write in a white upper middle class Midwestern style with an explicit push towards academic and persuasive styles. My high school prepped me for it hard. Add in a certain charisma when I write and I’m exactly who skates by in stuff like that.
And yeah that prof was firm but fair and we got on great.
In the words of my favorite Presidents: “Discipline makes things easier. Organize your life”
Just saying letting you do whatever probably didn’t make that class easier.
God fuck I wish I realized I was trans back in College I might have had a way easier time instead of burning out and having a mental breakdown because I went to some liberal as fuck courses (...partly due to said mental breakdown, mind.)
