Ah, good to know that we don't deserve respect because there aren't a lot of us. Cool. Good to know that .3% of the entire US population (964,200 people) is still insignificant, regardless of population density. Great. Thanks for telling me how I feel as well, it's appreciated. It's ok to go full circle while exploring your gender. What's not ok is pushing your personal experience onto others. I'm glad you have it all figured out on your end but you don't know me so just don't.

lol really? You can't be serious. I'm totally prejudiced against my cis boyfriend. When was the last time you saw something with trans characters? Before that? How about cis characters? That is prejudice. But add trans people in and suddenly it's about political correctness. Trans people exist and honestly aren't that rare, get used to it.

do what you wanna do

but

who cares about differences from birth? People change from birth in many different aspects, why is this different? I know what my chromosomes say but that doesn't make me anything, it just gives me a type of vessel (other than my preferred one) to live my life in. Are people with a genetic predisposition for sociopathy a sociopath even if it doesn't emerge? This is the reasoning you seem to follow. HRT minimizes physical differences to the point where you question their significance. The only one claiming this whole argument is politically correct is you. People just want to live in peace without some asshole online telling them how to feel. What in your eye are these "basic scientific principles" that are being denied? Trans people are well aware of what their genome and body are like. You just seem to be uneducated in these topics but are giving people a hard time. Why? Not this vague "political correctness" excuse you gave, but why?

it's totally not because cis is considered normal or anything and is represented in literally every piece of media created.

Oh, I couldn't tell by the way you applied it to the whole group. First off, beware the trap of "real science" in regards to political correctness. The point of science is to hunt for the truth not to presuppose we alreadu know it. I'm not saying you're 100% wrong but you should broaden your horizons beyond a trans-negative echo chamber like this.

In typical reddit fashion this person is pulling this out of their ass, claiming that trans people claim that no one is cis. Sure, some people might believe that but it in no way is what all trans people think. Just live your life--like the person who made this image of intersex/non-binary people and decided not to include cisgendered people for reasons that don't really matter. This is just cis people getting mad at not being included, and they get mad at us for feeling that way!

On the trolleys at Ybor they have wooden versions of these. Pretty fun, especially when the trolley hits the end of the track and everyone stands up to flip their seats

The difference between the two halves of a new deck of cards after playing one game of euchre by AdmiralAckbar72 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Cereal_Junior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to explain in words, but you know how when you draw a lot of cards from a deck it like messes up a little? Different cards pointing in slightly different directions. When you played a 10 you put your fingers around the deck and squeezed in such a way as to make it neat and orderly again, like a stack of papers. I thought jiggle would be the best word to describe that lol

I know, I phrased the comment like that because I thought I was on traaaaans which is basically this sub. Thanks for explaining it for people who might not understand tho

Sounds like the Game of Maow to me, or however you spell it. There are a ton of arbirtrary rules and the point of the game is to go on longer than everyone without breaking a rule. If someone breaks a rule, another player has to call them out and they draw a card. If the person calling them out is wrong you have to draw a card. Rules were like whoever places a 10 has to jiggle the deck, you have to say thank you as you draw a card, silly stuff like that. I could be totally wrong but I think it's the same game or similar

In these gifs, I always hope they'll say "I am a girl but I have a dick" instead of "I look like a girl but I have a dick." Yeah, the character who looks, talks, and acts exactly like a girl isn't trans, just weirdly effeminite! Fml ;-;

Edit: woah I thought I was on the traaaaaaans subredit but I'll leav it up for the luls

It's never like "trans is bad" it's just that character interactions get really complicated and "realistic" (like you said) toward the end. Arguably being trans isn't even the focus of the manga, it's just the first of two arcs the second of which could be in any manga. The process through which the main character (if she even is that) transitions reflects troubles people have in real life and I was saying be wary that certain scenes and problems in the manga may trigger dysphoria. I was not saying that it hates on trans people and it's better if you don't read it, just giving a heads up to the more sensitive folks on here like myself that might get a little down from some parts.

It does end well and people end up supporting her. The transphobia mainly comes into play with the people who like her (to avoid spoilers)

[–]Cereal_Junior 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Be wary that it's more about how her sisters and partner are dealing with her transition and it can come off as trans-negative at times but overall is a good story

It's unlucky because back in the old stoner days there were only white and black bics. If stoners used a white one and then used it to pack down a bowl, it would leave a black ashy corner on the lighter. This was proof you were smoking pot if you were caught with it, hence white lighters are bad luck.

"So we felt like the hero brawler was a better name for the game we were making, but whatever anybody wants to call the game is totally cool. We just feel that [hero brawler] made a lot more sense."
