Reply to comment by Sea_Concentrate_6543 in What is your guilty pleasure? by Sea_Concentrate_6543
I’m aware. It has shame attached to it. I refuse to feel shame for things I personally enjoy.

So what are some of those things?
WomanNotAGirl t1_jab9u2g wrote
I like some of Justin Bieber’s songs.
I am unintentionally loud when I’m pleasured during sex and I don’t care if people hears me ie: roommates and stuff
I like TikTok a lot
I like cheerios and juice boxes
I like watching cartoons
I procrastinate and I’m more productive when I work on something the last minute
I love reality tv shows
Though I am not a die hard fan, I like Kim kardashian
Edit:
Guilty pleasures are activities, products, or habits that a person participates in because it brings them joy, yet it also makes them feel slight shame

I'm 'guilty' of most of those myself.

It’s all good. Doesn’t mean I don’t have substance. As one psychologists said it’s good to have those things. They are “mostly” healthy coping mechanisms. I’m big on looking at where terms come and on purpose trying to reframe them.
Like the term male dominated industry actually means an industry that’s refusing to adapt to accommodate women into it. I should know I’ve worked in such field for years.

I just retired from a female dominated trade in public education.

I hear that’s very difficult as well. Curious to hear your experience.

It was good, I got lucky and worked with a good group of people. I may have been blind to things.
