I generally keep the bits on my blog to things from my life that I can extrapolate to something larger that everyone can relate to, but I think giving up some of the personal bits helps people understand and feel as well as think about things. because I see a lot of problems that come out of understanding things perhaps on an academic level but not really on a visceral level (like the white-knight male-feminists, perhaps?). or thinking about entire groups of people as blocs to be talked about rather than as people to be engaged with.
