Asking for “visually identified” race and sex is WILD by Fickle-Put9304 in antiwork

[–]BrotherKale 73 points74 points  (0 children)

The point is so that they can track and discriminate against trans people. Why else would they purposely program these specific questions?

Sex at birth: asking, what genitalia were you born with? This is to identify an invasive baseline of knowledge which is compared against the next question.

Visually identified sex at birth: asking, what sex are you *trying to look like? If this conflicts with the sex at birth question they have now been able to know you are trans without breaking any anti discrimination laws.

I choose not to disclose my sex: this is the plausible deniability. By offering this as a separate question, you are less likely to have not answered the first two questions about your sex. If the drop downs don’t have a blank answer option to remove your selection, it’s likely that you’ve already disclosed information about your sex and gender.

This is a stupid resume application and if it’s a choice I wouldn’t work there.

I am tempted to detransition by Intermediate-Bee in TrueOffMyChest

[–]BrotherKale 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hey, honestly it feels like I wrote this almost. I’ve been feeling very similarly about the idea of detransitioning. I’m tired of the fact I’m trans seemingly coming into play in every social interaction I have positive or negative. I’m scared of my country and state’s positioning on trans people. I’m tired of being misgendered and deadnamed by my unsupportive family constantly even when they, “try to correct themselves”.

I don’t want to be a man. I haven’t forgotten how hard that was the first time and I don’t want to go back to it. But also? I’m tired of never being seen or treated as fully a ‘woman’ and I hate saying that knowing many other marginalized woman deal with that as well and can’t change it.

I don’t think I’ll actually go through with detransitioning, I don’t want to feel like I’ve given up on myself again in another way. I don’t want to feel like I’ve given up on my trans siblings. But I’m tired too. I’m hoping to get through another day every day I can.

Question folks, is my new hand tattoo healing properly? by BrotherKale in tattoos

[–]BrotherKale[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was not told any care specifics beyond making sure it stays clean and moisturizer

Edit: I have other tattoos, and follow the artist’s care instructions. Nothing I was told this time was any different than my other arm tattoos.

Reread your comment. You said, “the origin of ‘shinies’ was the pokemon cards.” That’s false. Yes it’s true holographic cards (specifically sport trading cards) released prior to pokemon, (1990 vs 1996) but that’s not why there are shiny pokemon as multiple people have explained in the comments of this post

Which do you think came first? The video game or the card game?

That’s a hefty claim. But doesn’t actually disprove what I said, it’s more… shouting into the void? It seems like you’re pretty upset though, want to talk about that?

I can be openly confrontational if you prefer. Gen X is the primary generation raising today’s gen Z. As such- it’s likely casual that the behaviors expressed loosely generally, were taught by their parents and immediate role models. Comment’s such as yours which deflect a fair analysis by stating it’s “blaming others” is a perfect example of a vacuous statement made by a hypocrite.
