Pillow Talk w/ Hannah: Follow Hannah!

Hi!  Yes, I have a Twitter/X account @HannahTGirlMN and on Bluesky @hannahmcknight.bsky.social.  I mostly use these accounts for posting a photo each day.  

I also have a website (hannahmcknight.org) where I post photos and other writings about my adventures in the real world.  

My website is a better reflection as to who I am.  I write a lot, like a lot a lot.  I write about the things that I do, whether it's writing about a photo shoot or a new experience or thoughts about how certain things in the world impact the nonbinary community.  My social media is, well, it can come off as a little shallow, I suppose.  I'll post a picture and a short little comment that can be sassy or egotistical and although sometimes I do feel sassy or egotistical, I don't feel that way all the time.  Social media isn't real life, afterall.  Most of the time I feel a little insecure, truth be told.

Social media also can give someone the wrong impression which can be frustrating.  When I post a picture from a photo shoot that features a lot of cute lingerie from XDress, I get a lot of DMs that are very sexually charged.  I am not posting in an effort to hook up, but guys will shoot their shot anyway.  It's an interesting (to say the least) experience to chat with guys.  A typical DM exchange with a guy complimenting me and we go back and forth in painfully boring small talk about how I am and what I am doing.  Annnnd then BAM, an inappropriate comment or photo.  I tell them that I am not interested and most guys will back off but there are plenty of dudes who will call me horrible names once they learn that I am not going to hook up with them.  

I suppose the anonymity of social media allows someone to say things in a message that they would never say in real life.  It gets a little disheartening to be called names throughout the day but I still keep my DMs open.  Social media is a double edged sword and it's also incredibly unbalanced.  I have made some wonderful friends on Twitter but for every lovely chat I experienced ten unpleasant ones.  

Love, Hannah
