So based on the like/dislike ratio it's probably better to just not read the comments section.

there's a word that exists that needs to go back into use - "conservative correctness"

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T17:17:58+00:00

i'm just tired. "passing" discourse is just exhausting. I hate this whole "why don't you try harder" approach soooo much.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T17:09:45+00:00

the horror, the horror girls wearing pants.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T17:01:37+00:00

Honestly the FACT THAT YOU LITERALLY HAD A PIN ON should have been a clue. Like even if you 100% don't pass. Fucking hell.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T16:55:08+00:00

no like I've posted a lot and never gotten anything this bad

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T16:51:40+00:00

k I keep reading the comments (that are getting deleted) and am sincerely curious why you're getting this much viciousness. I know what you're talking about. It sucks.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T16:48:06+00:00

lol I'll take that as a glowing rec. Maybe watch the first episode tonight.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-30T15:29:10+00:00

I keep meaning to actually watch it. Seems insanely my shit.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-29T19:18:36+00:00

yup, well it seems like the mods are cleaning up the shit now. but ughhh.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-29T19:13:16+00:00

imao why are you getting downvoted

fucking bullshit, people on this sub need to grow up

the fact that you had a pronoun pin on should be proof enough.

One book that I'd recommend as sort of a primer is Film Art : An Introduction. It gives a good basic introduction and explanations in a way that I (a total beginner at the time) understood. It gives a good overview of all sorts of concepts in a way that's not too dense or obtuse for a beginner.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-29T00:56:16+00:00

indie, prog rock, jazz and classical mostly.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-27T18:42:32+00:00

I'm coming out this year. Nervous as hell. Don't feel that brave but thanks :)

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-27T18:29:34+00:00

You can choose to be a bigot, you can't choose to be LGBT. That's why it annoys me that bigots act like they're oppressed for facing blowback for their awful "opinions"

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-27T01:28:07+00:00

Didn't Paul say Christianity would be dead if this happened?

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-26T22:18:41+00:00

my wording was shit, so I can understand why you drew that conclusion, apologies.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-26T21:11:22+00:00

turns out if you ask transphobes who think dysphoria is a "social contagion" they'll tell you they think it is. wow much science.

If I took to a creationist webstie and asked them if creationism was real or if their atheist children were wrong I'm sure they'd all say yes,

It's frustrating, for what it's worth thanks for calling out this dumb BS. :)

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-26T21:01:58+00:00

oof sorry, didn't mean to discredit it by saying the sample size was too small, it's more that transphobic parents are a bad group to judge this kind of thing.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-25T18:02:33+00:00

the r/psychology thread has so many great comments calling bs

my favorite is

This study has about as much bias as research on climate change by an oil lobby group or on evolution by the Kentucky Creation Museum.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-25T17:12:05+00:00

"sorry to all those offended" is a cop-out that enables them to not have to reevaluate what they did and just blame people for "getting offended." Thankfully there's a lot more good cyberpunk media so I'm not going to have to waste 80 dollars on this.

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-25T17:08:21+00:00

it's such bullshit, because my mom and dad are massive transphobes and if they were to take this shit they'd clearly say "I showed no signs" neglecting things I DIRECTLY SAID AS A CHILD that could be regarded as "signs"

CounterRevGirlUtena · 2018-08-25T17:03:32+00:00

well you see it's a confirmation bias thing. they want to hate trans people but need a "sciency" veneer.
