			==Commentary==
			This was, of course, long before I discovered my gender dysphoria, so people are still referring to me with male pronouns.

			{{markup/tquote\|...he seemed much more open to a serious, honest discussion. I told him that ability was useless without serious effort/investment in learning – that there were many other talented students in the class that were leaving him in the dust. Some of this seemed to sink home, particularly the talent vs. effort angle.}}

			I do have a vague memory of this conversation. Some points:
			* I think I remember feeling kind of shocked that Mark would believe I thought brains made effort unnecessary. I was always interested in science, especially then, and wanted to learn more about it.
			* I was also depressed and didn't know it, which made it difficult to be motivated.
			* I was almost certainly feeling "more open" to discussion at this point because I finally had some friends who made me feel like I deserved to exist (most notably [[Woozle/Jenny\|Jenny]]). I finally had a bit of motivation to spare; the depression began to lift substantially.
			* I had been trained at [[DA]] that demonstrating any kind of apparent superiority was good. I didn't ''like'' that attitude, but I thought it was what I was ''supposed to do''. This is probably part of what Mark interpreted as me standing on my "innate ability" without making any effort.

			{{markup/tquote\|I think he needs a bit more firm outside direction & frank comments.}}

			"Frank"? Well, ''honest'' and ''direct'', yes... but also ''listening''. "Firm" would just send me into spirals of feeling inadequate. What I really needed was regular, frequent talk-therapy. Anti-ADD or anti-depression medication might have been a good idea too, though I'm not sure what existed back then.
