I've never had to think about it very much at all. Even all this feels exceptional.
Or maybe that's just what I want it to be. I've been privy to a lot of hypocrisy since I was a child, the rationalisations and the secret keeping, what men and women tell themselves when they do what they shouldn't. I'm not above learning bad habits. But I do not think of it as morally reprehensible. Scandalous, at worst.
If it's any comfort about the difference of people based on their identity or reproductive organs, everyone looks exactly the same when their insides are spilled out on the floor for forbidden ritual magic, and there's no real way to tell anything apart.
