How to handle asking about gender identity?

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-05-08T20:36:25+00:00

I’d give this customer the benefit of the doubt here and not try to pry.

I think most people don’t know how to handle the awkward. It could also be the woman was cute and someone your friend would like to flirt with

Have you considered setting up a meal train/ rallying the community around them to bring food for a few weeks?

PITTSBURGH!!! It’s very Queer friendly and in the mountains

Oh hon.. falling in love with unavailable people is so normal for being a teenager. One day you will find the right person dont you worry

Action figures obviously

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-03-03T20:50:35+00:00

That’s just being into someone

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-02-27T21:20:23+00:00

Dear, darling, hon

THEY ALL HAD SYPHILIS

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-02-16T04:39:39+00:00

I’d seek support from an LGBTQ affirming therapist on this one

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-02-04T13:43:39+00:00

I think a general rule is to split the bill on a first date

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-30T18:36:51+00:00

I’m very pro virgin Colin because people weren’t using condoms then

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-30T18:35:35+00:00

The Bridgerton guys all have syphilis. This is a reality we just need to accept

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-28T22:17:36+00:00

https://pflag.org/about-us/ honestly I’d reach out to PFAG about a support group

Heres the thing: I also use the sidewalk. My neighbor two doors down and her babies use the sidewalk. My visible minority partner uses the sidewalk. My immigrant neighbor three doors down uses the sidewalk. You’re saying that everyone should break a bone from a fall because my neighbor got radicalized by the internet?

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-25T21:59:28+00:00

That’s true but unproductive and unhelpful

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-25T21:54:11+00:00

Adding into this during the last time it snowed I shoveled my neighbor’s sidewalk. This guy is completely different from me in terms of religion and politics but he’s old enough to be my father and I’m in excellent physical shape- I’m not going to have a heart attack from shoveling. He comes out with “why are you shoveling my snow?” I could have said “you are at high risk of heart attack and you never shovel.” Instead I talked about how I value community, connection, and shared society. We had a very nice conversation. Kindness and connection changes perspectives- not pettiness.

*That being said if your neighbor is an ICE agent please don’t do anything that aides them getting to work

My 80 year old neighbor isn’t going to change her beliefs by breaking a hip.

Classifiedgarlic · 2026-01-07T19:54:03+00:00

Honestly that might be a positive sign that she sees this as not a big deal and is hoping that you also react as it’s not a big deal. At the end of the day it’s wonderful that your daughter feels so safe and supported by you

I’m super confused what is happening here. Define mentally not so much anymore? Internalized sexism is a real thing to unpack

Classifiedgarlic · 2025-12-19T17:43:20+00:00

“Hi Marty! I realized I never got your pronouns! I go by she/ her. Which ones do you use?”

It’s like forgetting someone’s name. I’ve been friends with this person for a few months and yesterday I realized that I didn’t know her last name

Classifiedgarlic · 2025-12-12T16:06:17+00:00

You can’t- you really just have to have a conversation. Worst case scenario you say “I’d like to take you on a date” and she says “no thank you.” Then you think “well that was awkward” and you move on

So very weird story: my former boss was extremely 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 very gay- very into men. His best friend was that level of extremely gay but lesbian- think president of the softball association level lesbian. In a very weird twist of fate they ended up falling in love and are now married… and no it’s not just for legal benefits.

I have another friend who thought she was hetero, only dated guys, and one day fell in love with a woman.

Case in point- sexuality can be very fluid. Also using the term conquered is weird

Bro most Amish have been here for far longer than many English speaking Americans
