If you're worried about the full context not being understood, maybe add the necessary details? It doesn't have to be every possible detail, but you seem to have a clear idea of what context is missing, judging by your comment. So why not add it?
Also, if your blog isn't meant to be read by people that don't know the context of your life already, making it public seems like an odd choice, especially when you say things that might be taken the wrong way.
Also. If you really didn't care about what others said about it, why are you responding to such comments and displaying indignation? Why are you here at all?
And re: the blog being pink, do you really think it's because there's an "adults/men can't like pink" prejudice going around on this very liberal site? Or maybe it's because pink (unless done right) is like neon green: not a very aesthetic choice?

People who have followed me online enough to have my blog in their feedreader or bookmarks, they'll all know why I'm approaching the issue how I do. You seem to blame me for your and others' eagerness to jump into discussions about things I didn't even link on here. Hacker News was never my target audience. That aside, reading the newer comments I can see a lot of people who do actually take a bit more time to see my background and develop a fuller opinion on my blog piece, so evidently I already must have all the information needed to come to an informed conclusion about what I write. Maybe it's just a problem for most people to assume ill-intent out of my writings that aren't even meant to attack anyone.

If someone defames your image, you're telling me you would just shut up about it? You'd just let people keep kicking you in the gut while you're minding your own business? Again, stop excusing your negative actions.
>not a very aesthetic choice?
https://wowana.me/about.xht which is very clearly linked on the site, explains that I'm happy with the theme. It's my website; it only matters if I myself am content with how it looks. There's reader mode in many browsers now, I offer an Atom feed for consumption in a reader that strips that styling, and better yet, people like you don't have to read my site if you have nothing good to say about it.
