About
The Mortifying Ordeal of Being Known is part of a quote by author Tim Kreider in an essay he wrote for The New York Times. The full quote reads, "If we want the rewards of being loved we have to submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known," in essence arguing that to achieve deep relationships with others, one must bare the complexities and contradictory aspects of themselves they may not wish to share with the outside world. The quote became a meme on Tumblr, where it was used both sincerely and in shitposts.

The Child Coin
