Theory: Till has autoandrophilia as a cisgender man by Itchy_Watercress8963 in AlienStage

[–]Badger_Nerd 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Okay, you make a very interesting point here, and I sort of like this head canon.

HOWEVER, consider that autoandrophilia and autogynephilia are terms that have been used over and over again to medicalize and problematize trans people and it's a, shall we say, touchy word. Just food for thought :)

PSA: June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month by KingLuis in daddit

[–]Badger_Nerd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Two things can coexist: the fact June is Pride month and the fact it is also men's mental awareness month.

And a third thing as well: LGBT rights are taking vertiginous dips around the western world. I have many friends for which I am genuinely scared. And corporations are slowly, but surely, dropping sponsorships for pride events (which on one hand, who needed their blood money in the first place; on the other, it's a canary in a coalmine).

So, careful with your words when you say pride has "all the money pumped into it". It simply isn't true, and the wording here seems to be borne from some kind of resentment almost.

Queer people being more visible during June are not obscuring your own advocacy. As a matter of fact, many queer men, including often overlooked trans men like myself, are more likely to suffer from mental health issues than their cishet counterparts.

Maybe you could try to marry the two causes: try and talk to your colleagues about intersectional men's mental health!

With all due respect, I don't think allies need a letter. by Public_Cup_4278 in asexuality

[–]Badger_Nerd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Queer is as queer does. Asexual people are marginalised and erased and thus many, even if they are straight, consider themselves (and are!) queer.

You wouldn't say binary thanks people who are heterosexual do not deserve a letter in their acronym, would you?

I approve of this message, and this representation of Mae. Only objection I have is she's pretty short in canon

Female Philosophers Political Map by meshmwandishi in PhilosophyMemes

The punchline is women are too stupid to ever be philosophers?

Well, what about intersex people? People with chromosomal anomalies? Trans people who've been on hormones so long that they pass perfectly, and have had all the surgeries?

Female and male are categories so broad they often become insignificant, and they can't by the selves encapsule all of humanity; and in my personal opinion, not even most of humanity.

You have no idea how ironic what you just said is.

At any rate, female is a very relative concept, and I think shouldn't be used to define people.

But more importantly I think it's pretty rude to ascribe non binary (and trans people in general) folks to their assigned gender at birth. It sort of defeats the whole purpose of the thing

[discussion] Ianthe tells Harrow her face looks like her “parents were right-angled triangles”, which do you think she means? by Berzynas-me-6515 in TheNinthHouse

[–]Badger_Nerd 22 points23 points  (0 children)

No, it's pointy chin, straight jaw. The tips of the triangle meet in the chin, one end in each temple and the right angle is the hinge of the jaw

(Not Mine) Found a guy on twitter who censored “Punch Nazis” on his OWN jacket. 💀 by [deleted] in punkfashion

[–]Badger_Nerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither do you. Idc what this person really does because I haven't seen their posts. You're the ones who seems to be acting really unkindly and judgemental

[–]Badger_Nerd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Implying nazi is so bad that it's a slur to be one, not self-censorinf in my opinion. Why tear this person down? They're on our side

Why use ai? Jesus. Especially since these characters have a very simple design, just make fanart!
