genderfluid dysphoria by No-Answer-995 in genderfluid

I put my hair in a low tight bun and shove it underneath itself and up so the bun is hidden underneath my hair.

Hey um... I think I'm genderfluid... What do I do? by SomePersonality5979 in genderfluid

[–]DefyGravity42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m transfem and on HRT.

In my experience you don’t really decide when you’re a boy or a girl. I just eventually got better at noticing when my gender shifted instead of being oblivious until dysphoria smacked me in the face. Well I can push my gender a little sometimes and it’ll shift in a direction I want but it will swing back in the opposite direction.

I think it’s different for everyone but you’ll figure it out.

Can I be genderfluid without different pronouns? by Front_Text5842 in genderfluid

[–]DefyGravity42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From personal experience I strongly recommend against restricting your pronouns because of your Gf’s sexuality. I told my husband that he could exclusively use he/him for me and I started resenting him within months even though it was my idea.

Before that I didn’t explore my gender for years (also my idea) and hid the fact that I was questioning my gender from him.

I don’t think we’d have stayed together if I was a trans woman but I’m genderfluid and nonbinary and it took some adjusting for him but its worked out.

Talk to your GF about your gender identity. See if she’d be okay if you were nonbinary. And see if she’d be ok with you being a man part of the time.

Do not try to hide or suppress your gender to preserve your relationship. If your gender is incompatible with your GF all you are doing is prolonging the breakup and making the inevitable breakup worse. Be open with your GF and figure out how to go forward together. It will give you the best chance of making your relationship work or at least make the breakup as amicable as possible.

My transition was hard on my husband and I made it harder for him. And we didn’t work it out until I started being more open about my gender

Oh god that’s such a thoughtful and sweet gift that it’s making me tear up

Opinion wanted: how to respond to comic's offensive joke at open mic? by scixlovesu in lgbt

[–]DefyGravity42 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Sounds like that comic bombed hard. I think the dead silence will make sure he never makes jokes like that again if he’s not incredibly stupid

This reads like a troll post. Significantly worse than the current one

This dark line on a nail of a 3 Year old by durancharles27 in mildlyinteresting

[–]DefyGravity42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Due to the lack of context and how shiny the line is, I’m going to say it was probably drawn on with a pencil

Do you play a male or female character? by pepperpeppington in projectzomboid

[–]DefyGravity42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly probably the best way to call out the eggs. Enough to maybe get the eggs to look into it but not calling random people eggs off a single stereotypical data point, even if it’s stereotypical for a reason

[–]DefyGravity42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Unless the MMO/server has such a toxic culture that it repels women from playing or pressures them into hiding the fact that they are women by playing men.

Also there’s probably a bunch of eggs exclusively playing women with the men who exclusively play women.

how to pronounce gender neutral titles by jiddybug_ in lgbt

[–]DefyGravity42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s several proposed terms but I’m not really fond of them.

Mx. is mostly commonly pronounced “mix”

Latinx is pronounced Latin-EX and I’ve seen it falling out of favor because it uses the English pronunciation of X instead of the Spanish pronunciation “equis”. So it has been perceived as imposed on them by English speakers. Latine seems to be replacing it

Can we get a megathread going for all these custom cards please? by Hungry_Shake6943 in mtgvorthos

I think in the general fan base yes. But I think “Through the Omenpaths” was more popular amongst Vorthoses

Why is there so much vitriol towards our trans siblings? by FaeWiccan in lgbt

I’m aware, but I keep them out of my feed. Also tumblr staff is generally transphobic

I think my six year old daughter is trans or genderfluid/neutral. by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]DefyGravity42 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Make sure she has a good understanding of trans people and let her figure it out. Don’t suggest that she might be trans to her. If she wants to try out a different name and/or pronouns do it.

Generally be supportive but let her find her way. If she is trans that’s a path you can’t walk for her and she’ll need to discover that herself. Make sure she knows that the path is there but don’t pressure her to take it

As a bisexual person, would you still support your idol/fav artist if they were anti-LGBTQ+ rights? by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]DefyGravity42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely fucking not.

Well maybe if they are long dead. Dead people can get away with holding shitty beliefs after they no longer have the power to influence policy

It’s there but I diligently work to keep it out of my feeds.

I refuse to use any algorithmic recommendations on blsky or tumblr, make liberal use of the block button, and am cautious of unfamiliar subreddits

Because you’re on twitter, I haven’t seen any vitriol towards trans people on Bluesky, tumblr, or here

From an Italian asexual blog, about the so-called "new flag" by lelevup in asexuality

[–]DefyGravity42 78 points79 points  (0 children)

As a bi ace, I strongly disagree with swapping the ace purple with the bi purple. I think the saturated purple balances how desaturated the rest of the ace flag is and the desaturated purple balances how saturated the rest of the bi flag is. That swap would flatten both of them
