i feel totally the same but slightly different in that it makes me less motivated not because of any personal doubt concerning my abilities but out of spite that they my abilities are being questioned in the first place idrk where this comes from but if i had to guess maybe from the years and years of having my aptitudedrive constantly under scrutiny from authority i’m not sure but it’s unfortunate because i don’t think those who try to appeal to those certain sensibilities are intentionally trying to be patronizing or anything i just think my brain can’t help but take it the wrong way either that or the offense taken on my part is totally rational probably a case by case thing to be sure
