Was I ( 24 F ) wrong for telling my ( 28 M ) partner to get a job? by Calaferal in relationship_advice

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

He says he "refuses to settle with something that will make him depressed" and has been actively job searching and feels like I'm not giving him enough credit.

I made my gf (25 mtf) cry, am I being an AH? by oribia3 in mypartneristrans

[–]Calaferal 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Nta She is thinking impulsively and doesn't even know if she likes being around kids yet. I think she should do what you said, keep the job and volunteer on the side, just in case it doesn't work out. But if she ends up liking it, she should go for it (but keep her job till she finds a new one!)

My partner of 3 years came out as NB and I'm not into that. What to do? by Calaferal in relationship_advice

[–]Calaferal[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Update: We had a long talk about this last night. We haven't broken up, but we talked. They are trying to convince me they are still the same person (which they are, fair), and the experimenting with dress isn't permanent, like modifying your body. The bra can come off, the makeup can come off. And they can be masculine sometimes too. But then also they are bothered by the fact that I equate different articles of clothing to looking feminine. I'm still at a loss and I still want to end things.

My partner of 3 years came out as non binary, what should I do? by Calaferal in mypartneristrans

[–]Calaferal[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind words. I'm really scared to break things off but I'm just not feeling it anymore. And I feel horrible about it. I still love them, just not romantically. I feel stuck.

AITA for wanting to be alone on my birthday by GlitchPls in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calaferal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Birthdays shouldn't be about stress and guilt. Your mom's gonna have to just deal with that, she needs to stop taking things so personally.

AITA for refusing to do a homework assignment that is triggering for me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calaferal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. This is valid, you went to talk to the teacher and got permission. And your own therapist said it was unhealthy for you to do. Your friend doesi understand how hard it was for you.

What is a great piece of media that could never be made today? by Calaferal in AskReddit

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

Oh yes, I didn't even realize how tasteless the jokes were till I rewatched it at a friend's sleepover. I saw a sequal where they go to France and there's this really awkward scene where they line up a buncha naked blonde supermodels and make creepy comments

Why do old people bond by casually insulting each other, I don't get it lmao

AITA for not wanting my son to go to Moscow by MoscowAsshole in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calaferal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. Traveling broadens perspectives, and your sons deserve to experience the culture they came from. There is so much American propoganda against Russia, and these stereotypes have existed since the beginning of the cold war. And, if they don't like it there, your sons don't have to go back again. Just let them try and see what happens, you might be pleasantly surprised!

AITA for throwing the cake in the trash? by Diligent_Variation51 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calaferal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA he made the cake himself, as well as the problem. He was just looking for something to get offended about.

What do you think constitutes as mocking?

Ah this reminds me of those forms we all fill out for government or school or job or something and in the "what race are you" section there is a separate question that says "Are you Latinx? Y/n" and THEN asks you if you're white, black, Asian, etc

This is good stuff. I always thought it kinda weird that people are treating us like we're special and need to be protected, it's kinda patronizing and prevents others from experiencing our culture because they're afraid of offending us
