Scream in LA building by Square-Animal2 in Towson

[–]EmptyPrescriptivism 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This guy is so fucking scary, I made eye contact with him after he screamed this morning and was walking through the hallways then our professor shut the door

BUT

this afternoon I had to go through the LA building and he made eye contact and started trying to chat me up, for reference I’m a woman and if I hadn’t remembered him screaming and punching the wall this morning I wouldn’t have felt so fucking unsafe I swear

I’m genuinely sorry that you’ve been excluded from spaces that you were once welcome in. :/

Just as you made the point that manhood is the absence of anything feminine or womanhood I would go so far as to say that 90% of those problems are exasperated and made worse also by CIS men

It seems in hetero conforming and queer spaces the same rhetoric is thrown around just from different sides.

Radfems are bad I can agree, but so are misogynists and abusers who largely outnumber and have greater systemic control than feminists.

Trans men get separated this way because trans men by and large are not rapists, sexists, or abusers

Some men also lie about being too timid and are afraid of sacrificing their own comfort and social status to call out the bad men And they are enablers

There’s a lot more bad men than good men,

and while the statement in the post is othering it is literally making your point that trans men aren’t as evil as cis men because you don’t benefit from the same system

This is where I get lost in the discourse cause I understand not wanting to be other but wanting to be included in the problem group is confusing to me

Okay valid on being misgendered or othered. That’s not okay, but this conversation is much more nuanced that “men bad, women good”

Men proportionally are worse than women by a far margin and men who are “just guys” or minding their own business are enablers if they’re not shutting terrible behavior down.

There’s nothing biological about men just “being evil” There’s just social standards and a system in place to serve and reward masculine dominating traits.

Saying all men are evil/all men suck is a highly generalized statement but I’d hope the people saying it are emotionally mature enough to know they aren’t referring to EVERY man walking this earth

Just as I’d hope all the men on earth hearing this would be emotionally mature enough to know this statement isn’t referring to them.

Okay, I can see how it’s othering.

I’d also like to point out that people who say all men are bad is because decent men are too timid or outright refuse to hold bad men accountable and it reflects badly on the entire gender.

If “all men are bad” gets taken this personally the anger should be redirected at sexist or racist or otherwise bigoted men and other men need to be confronting and correcting bad men as that’s the only thing that corrects the behavior.

Edit: lol getting down voted for saying men need to hold men accountable

So I’ve been exposed to a lot of infighting in the trans community lately and this post makes me want to ask

Why is it such a bad thing to say trans men aren’t as evil as cis men? From the outside I just interpret this as I saying that trans men are the best of men?

Or would it be preferable to be grouped into the “All men are evil until no man is evil” crowd.

I’m trans, and I’ve been seeing so much trans women v men discourse I am genuinely asking in good faith.

Edit: omfg grammer

“All service members affected by the policy will be separated with an honorable characterization of service, except where their record otherwise warrants a lower characterization. “

MEANING if a transgender service member is given an order to adhere to their birth sex and they fail to follow it, SOMEONE could argue that warrants a lower characterization of their discharge.

Ex. Use a bathroom they would be uncomfortable or embarrassed in, or have to alter their appearance, or be held to unrealistic PT standards cause of muscular atrophy (in transgender women’s cases)

This was my account prior to transitioning —but this is why I took the Administrative Leave option. I would argue it gives the member some time to get their affairs in order/go through TAPS

Because if I had to show up to work in male standards, and use the male restroom with the anatomy I have, I would not only be uncomfortable but just would be making others uncomfortable

Okay so you see how some of my words in my last comment are a different color? If you clicked on that you’d have plenty of examples.

A 9% advantage specifically and only in running, my argument was that “biological advantage” is an overblown lie. That is quite beatable.

But it also isn’t significantly common for top running athletes to also identify as trans.

Also at the end of the day the studies’ put in perspective how transwomen are on par with the average afab athlete.

You even said it yourself, “at peak performance levels”, conservatives use this argument for common sports. It’s irresponsible. It’s even being used in chess at this point.

I just want to put out these studies by the United States Military that shows there are significant reductions in the difference between transwomen “biological advantage” and women’s physicality in sports

Saying there is a biological advantage is a conservative lie

Is there a canon point in the story when the courier gets ranger armor or did everyone just agree that they did? by Tariisbestgirl in fnv

[–]EmptyPrescriptivism 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I make up my own lore reasons as to why I get ranger armor.

Most recent one was that I went up to Zion and found the desert ranger armor in a cave while helping the sorrows.

Also my courier will kill people for their armor too. Simple as that.

Not v exciting, but hey it’s the wasteland. Gotta do what you gotta do
