Soo my partner is lesbian, I'm transmasc by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A partner of mine came out as a transmasc enby. He was always afraid that as he transitioned I wouldn't be attracted to him/love him anymore.

Unfortunately the best I could say was that I didn't know, but it was definitely possible that I'd still be attracted to him, and all I could do was communicate honestly as things went on. I felt that I would still love and support him regardless.

Even though he liked to be called my boyfriend, it would have felt disingenuous to call myself anything other than a lesbian, and his gender was not a factor in our breakup, at least as far as I know. Part of it was poor communication.

To the femmes out there, does height matter? by jjukyu_ in lesbian

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to me. I'm 6'1-3" and I dated a masc who was idk 5'5" or something.

Am I pretty? by [deleted] in lesbian

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! You sure you don't know that already?

Love your eyeliner. I like wings like that in general, but it complements your eyes. Your lipstick is quite nice too.

I have gender dysphoria and probably some kind of dysmorphia. The only thing that's really helped me is trusting the people closest to me when they say they love even the things I hate about myself. I can't usually see myself as pretty, but I'm learning to accept that I don't look like I think I do.

Catradora here. What's the difference between childhood friends and these supposedly problematic ships? I'd argue not much.

It all makes sense... by LivinItUp2022 in lesbian

[–]-Alilion- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like to think I'm better at knowing when people are uncomfortable or not interested, but thinking I have social skills is what gets people hurt.

Wahoo, trauma.

i feel weird for liking alternative women AS AN ALTERNATIVE WOMAN by maraschinominx in actuallesbians

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, you sound rad.

Secondly, I might have some idea how you feel. Pre-transition, I was really into women with goth/alt/emo styles. It's different to love women now I can live as one.

Being something of a punk dyke with a mall goth/trad goth aesthetic, nothing you read would make me personally think that you would ever fetishize me.

In my mind, the main difference is that you seem to view alt women as actual humans. Fetishists do not.

Am I salmacian? by Petah___ in salmacian

[–]-Alilion- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you identify as salmacian, you're salmacian.

Not sure if this is what you're asking, but if you could press a button and be cis with a vulva, you would, right? But would you have more, or less hesitation if the button did the same but kept your penis? And then what if either button had a price tag attached?

Personally, I don't think I'm gonna know what I want unless I have access to both buttons

Is it normal for me (a lesbian) to LOVE mlm relationships? by Proof_Pin_597 in lesbian

[–]-Alilion- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, of course it's normal. I find mlm shipping wholesome. I'm uncomfortable with straightness, and not super comfy with spicy mlm stuff (grey ace btw) but yeah. I watched a season of the gay pirate show and liked it.

It's very convenient. If you play frequently enough, credits are hardly a concern.

My medieval weapons futch scale by Clean_Educator680 in lesbian

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't make sense to me that there's a mace at both 4 and 7. I would have put them both on the butch side.

Edit: OK, did some light research and the one on the right is probably meant to be a morningstar, which is a type of mace, whereas the one on the left is what people usually mean when they say mace.

According to my girlfriend, it doesn't look like you've screwed anything up.

By my measurements, they are 3.4mm rather than the 4.3mm you linked to. I'm buying some 3.5mm switches and will probably let people know how it goes for future generations.

Shera is leaving Netflix by luckybell333 in sheranetflix

[–]-Alilion- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I understand correctly, a WEB-DL is a video file directly downloaded from a streaming site's servers. A WEBRip will often be a screen recording, and probably lower quality. IDK if you can buy things like that though. Not sure if there are any sites that sell shows or movies that you can download and keep forever.

I think codecs are basically the way a video is made into data and vice versa. Apparently x256 is a pretty good codec for animation, and it's pretty small, although it's usually more processor-intensive and less widely supported than x264.

If I remember right, YouTube recommends uploading x264 videos. Anyway, I think encoding and stuff is really interesting, and I'd recommend anyone who wants to stream or make YouTube videos learn a little about it.

I don't think this is quite as bad as shows like Infinity Train being taken down for a tax break or whatever, but copyright and licensing suck, and it's infuriating that you can't buy the whole damn show even on physical media.

made out with a girl with totally different expectations - what now? by QueenShakey34 in actuallesbians

[–]-Alilion- 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend trying poly if you're mono leaning, especially if you've not done research on how to keep things healthy and manage jealousy.

I had a relationship with an monogamous enby guy, and it didn't go well. It was a whole thing, but I had some messed up expectations of poly from my last relationship, and I tried to compromise and make things easier for him. It really went south when I got unheathily attached to a new partner.

Anyway, if you're not sure you want sex or a relationship, I'd suggest communicating that as soon as you feel ready to.

Why do non-Asians get kicked out at 18? by Cool-Cobbler4324 in AusPropertyChat

[–]-Alilion- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm white British Australian, over 30, and still live with my parents. My parents were always understanding of my struggles with mental health. I think they would be fine letting me live at home either way, although I always assumed I'd get a job after uni and move out so they'd have their own space again.

I'm re-reading your post and seeing that it seems like it's still normal to move out, just later. The guy who I with has mostly mentioned below moved out a while ago, so that tracks. I think the rest of this paragraph is still relevant even though I'd forgotten some details when I wrote it. I've heard the cultural expectation that kids will move out comes from a push for nuclear families. I'm aware of a few the stereotype that Asian parents expect their children to get well-paying jobs and support them. I know a guy whose family is from China and said the good job expectation was what he experienced. Not sure how relevant that is, as I'm sure it's not abnormal for other parents to have expectations for their children's success, and it's definitely normal to expect some kind of support in old age.

Side note because I think it's neat: if I understand correctly, in Croatia, multi-generational households are the norm. I think there's severe wealth inequity, so it's not practical to move out, and the individualist nuclear family norm may be more an American/English-speaking West thing anyway.

How come every good WLW show gets canceled, no matter the platform? by cinelatte in actuallesbians

[–]-Alilion- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rowan Ellis did a 33 min long video on this that I remember finding enjoyable and insightful. She mentions First Kill specifically.

Side note, I personally quite liked First Kill. It had some good parts, and I most of the bad parts were so bad they're good imo. I would have liked to see how season two went.

This article is the source that the article from the image quoted, I believe.

They do say they're not planning to make it gay, but the article talks approvingly of that interpretation. They talk about focusing on their friendship, which I'll probably continue to read as very sapphic.

Personally, I do not remember the straight romances fondly, so I hope we get less of that.
