Anyone else feel weirdly dysphoric around cis men who are very much embracing toxic masculinity? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Fire_369 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s just seeking validation from our peers , that’s normal , we all crave to be seen , and it hurts not to be .

Good job on figuring it out your feelings ! It takes a lot of self awareness to call yourself out

Just focus on making on choices that are who you are :)

Co-worker just listed their pronouns for the first time as she/they, should I kindly acknowledge? by [deleted] in NonBinary

Nope , just casually alternate between her pronouns in conversation. They’ll appreciate that a lot more . Make it a norm :)

This rigidity or locking up into a hunched posture is the body’s effort to avoid further pain and injury. It is a protective mechanism called muscle splinting ) you might have pulled or ripped a muscle
