THIS is not a face I can relate to, sympathize for, or even have a dialogue with. This screams at me to kill it with fire. Even IF I didn't want to kill this thing, I want to be in orbit, far away from this creature. It's horrific, and only a contrarian can argue against that.
@ZoeRoseBryant
it was so so so fucking cool though. I was curious how they were going to adapt Alia and I think they did it perfectly. Anya will have a larger part in Dune Messiah.

it's literally normal for doctors to ask starting in adolescence about sexual activity especially if an infection is involved. Kids get embarassed talking abput sexual activity in front of their parents and might be incentivized to lie

starbucks isn't giving money to israel. But they did try to sue a starbucks baristas' union for voicing support for palestine while using the starbucks name

i'd rather die than permanently go back to masculinizing, but i'd try to castr8 myself before getting to that point.
It's not about becoming female in the biological or metaphysical sense because that's impossible. I take what i can get. That's X-sex hormones/social transition
@fireandstons
i think there's a definite gap in the discussion. People are talking at each other but not with each other. I'm inclined to say that the sexual proclivities of consenting adults doesn't need approval from others. What about your position should I understand?

it's ok not to be into it, just don't act like clutching your pearls during a sex scene in a movie you didn't have to watch is gonna earth you sympathy

CNC isn't even that crazy on the list of kinks. I know people with blood and gore kinks. If they wanna fuck up their room with fake blood and guts to play a scene, who cares? We're all depraved animals. Not everyone who plays GTA V is a psychotic mass murdering drug-peddler.
@raplinerkive
Yes that is my version of things. Consent inherently implies no coercion. Enthusiastic consent is inherent in cnc. Anything else is just NC otherwise known as ๐
@oatsandmag
I used to be scared of detrans spaces too. Then I plunged headfirst into them with an open mind. Then I realized that they're as diverse (even more so) in opinions, experiences, and outlooks than trans people. And then I found I can *really* learn from them.

@PanderShirts
gay people have always been on the kink scene. You can make a very compelling argument that overt kink bordering on public nudity shouldn't be at pride, and i would agree with you. But kink has always been a part of gay culture.

@tiredgirl428
you didn't get misgendered because of your look. You look absolutely gorgeous and beautiful. And I think you vibe fem. So it had to be the voice.
A boy with a botched circumcision forced to be raised as a girl, forced to have his brother mount him in a sexual manner, and forced to take hormones is not the same as a transsexual who transitions willingly.
I can't recommend
@JohnColapinto
's book about David Reimer enough.
'As Nature Made Him' is a must-read. It gives great insight into how gender identity became a thing between 1960-2000. Absolutely brilliant
no we don't. Spironolactone, a common anti androgen, raises potassium blood concentration, which sometimes causes abdominal cramps. It's not a period. It's an adjustment period to new electrolyte flow rates.
Um, sir. Periods give us gas and often manifest in cramping throughout our entire abdomen.
And if youโre talking about trans women - they actually do experience pelvic pain similar to period cramps because of HRT

@PanderShirts
This ^^^^ There's nothing wrong with plain old vanilla missionary sex with satin sheets, rose perals, candlelight, and ethereal music. If that's what you enjoy most, hell yah! But some people like doing more kinky stuff, and you don't have to like it to acknowledge that it exists
this line of nonsense helps zero people. No, doctors should NOT be circumcising infant boys. But also, as someone circumcised an infant (i cant believe i have to say this) circumcision is NOT FGM!!

it was. Alia in the books is pre-born, meaning she's born a reverend mother, with the knowledge and maturity of someone thousands of years old.
I think it's entirely reasonable to ban males from being things like judges, politicians, engineers, CEOs etc on the sole basis of the immense rage and otherwise irresponsible behavior that can accompany high testosterone levels and I suspect most level-headed men agree.
GCs in 2023:
Dress in a stereotypical way for your sex.
Only call yourself by your sex.
If you're a tim don't sleep with a consenting lesbian, and if you're a tif don't dleep with a consenting gay man
KYS tr00n
GCs in 2019:
Dress however you please.
Call yourself whatever you like.
Sleep with any consenting adult whoโll have you.
Live your best life in peace and security.
But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real?

Sure but why should people have to suffer unnecessarily? For some women periods aren't just annoying, they're physically disabling (i.e. endometriosis, pmdd). Should they have to suffer for the sake of some abstraxt spirituality that *you* experience?

Because no hormone pill or surgery is going to make you pro social and socially well adjusted. It's also not going to suddenly give you the self esteem you lacked. It just makes working on those things a lot lot easier
- blanchard was right
- passing matters
- straight twomen are not privileged over bi/lesbian twomen
despite that...
- i'm agp. it's okay to be that
- be patient with yourself. rome wasnt built in a day
- remember that as a bi/lesbian mtf you can be a good ally to str8 mtfs still
Getting fillers and buccal fat removal does not a transsexual make.
No different to the fillers and face surgery Drag Race contestants get after their season.
Heโs just a drag queen.

what exactly are they supposed to do about it?? what about men having piss and reproductive fluids come out of the same hole? isn't that a flaw?? it's almost like evolution isn't a very intelligent designer tho ๐ค

@seriouslysushi
it's not. We have no epithelial tissue to shed. We don't have periodic fluctuations in our hormone levels beyond how often we take our estrogen (for me, injections once a week). Even those fluctuations are tailored to be as minimal as possible
if you claim to care about gender dysphoric boys and men, telling a representative of a non transitioning autogynephile that he's a disgusting freak is not the best way to go about it. agp isnt just a "sexual fetish." it influences every aspect of our being
The system failed everyone. He shouldn't have been in public school. But if his answer to frustration is to lash out in violence, he needs to be kept away from the public.
NEW: The mother of Brendan Depa, the 6ft 6in teen who beat his teacher unconscious over a Nintendo Switch, is pleading for the teacher to "show mercy" on her son.
Depa's adoptive mom, Leanne Depa, says sentencing her autistic son to prison will be a "death sentence."
Depa isโฆ
Another trans individual harassing employees because they call him a HIM.
Tolerance only flows one way with these people. Do not give into people who demand you use their word choice. No one owes them anything~ especially free speech.
@kelly_cadigan
as someone who's getting the ball rolling on this stuff: no. some people don't need the surgery and that's okay. We shouldn't be pushing ppl to get surgeries they don't need
@Greerista
Not all that surprising. First, because autogynephilia: duh. Secondly, plenty of gay and lesbian couples are doppelbangers. I still don't dress as well as my girlfriend, but I still implement bits of her style that I like into mine.
People mirror the people they admire.

Largely because companies see AI as a magic black box that promises to make them lots of money by finding a competitive edge in the market. But the truth is that serious neural network/GPT research is still in its infancy, and AI isn't a magic black box.

The same reason a woman would want a career solely focused on male genitalia. Sometimes things are academically interesting to people. Idk how that's so difficult to understand

probably see a neurologist? estrogen isn't supposed to make you clumsier or dumber. Check to see if you have a neurodegenerative condition
"Not to be a mean girl or nothing" into just actual transphobia. This is the natural conclusion of all u girlies who have cis passing as the ultimate goal of transition. Some of you are just blatant right wingers idc this is just abject transmisogyny
Grifting for republicans makes you lose brain cells apparently. It takes 3 seconds to google T4T. I know at least 4 transbian couples in my trainee clique. I'm the weird one in my group for dating a cis woman ๐ญ

i hope i can cultivate an environment for my future kids where they feel comfortable telling me about this stuff, but if not, i'd hope the doctor can. They NEED to know so they can rule out certain things and what questions to ask/tests to run

that people are horrified by the lengths we need to go to be comfortable in our bodies, not by "trenders," but that it's abolutely ridiculous to say that binary transsexuals have more privilege thaj nbs
i don't understand why these people think sydney sweeney hosting snl is some anti woke turning point. She's a rising talented young actress and SNL has talented young actors hosting all the time to benefit the show and increase name recognition.
You can have the fat women, transgenders and circus freaks you want in all the ads and magazines you want.
But Sydney Sweeney just proved that for 200,000 years in a row men still prefer blondes with racks.
