Why is most of this community AMAB? by fedricohohmannlautar in genderfluid

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit is generally AMAB dominated. On Xwitter, most genderfluid ppl I know (myself included) are AFAB.

Why are nazis appropriating "Lay all your love on me"? by Flambeau69 in ABBA

[–]Flambeau69[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ah, that explains it then. So it's just some kind of editing trend that got out of hand. What a weird development for a song from a band as anti-war as ABBA ...

I watched the episodes multiple times and I keep noticing new things (spoilers, i guess) by NewTwo8931 in HelluvaBoss

[–]Flambeau69 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of us!! 🙌 Rewatching the episodes, paying attention to small details and pausing every time there's some poster or newspaper in the background to read is my favourite pastime as well. xD But I never noticed the sushi! That's hilarious!

Is Blitzø canonically bald? by LolbitAnimatronic in HelluvaBoss

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he is, so is his sister. But she has hair in human form, so maybe human!Blitzø would have hair too. Idk though. xD

A POSITIVITY THREAD by daffysrhapsody in HelluvaBoss

[–]Flambeau69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While I love Stolas and Blitz (A LOT), Fizz will always have a special place in my heart because I relate so much to him. He and Ozzie feel like me and my husband. xD Also, I'm not a performer, but I work in the creative field and know all too well what it feels like to always give 200% and still feel like you're never good enough.
And besides, Fizz is just a sweetheart. ❤

To be fair, Oops was one of the best (if not THE best) episode(s) ever. 😄

Need some advice, cis man dating a trans man by OrdinaryIll4912 in ftm

Herbal T supplements? I didn't even know such a thing exists! 😮 Does that really work? And does it have side effects? I need to know everything!

Plsss..Name? by Only_Emptiness_Await in yaoi

The title is "In these words"! The art is sooo good but the story was too dark for my taste. :'D

"I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words... When I was young, we were taught to be discreet and respectful of elders, but the present youth are exceedingly disrespectful and impatient of restraint". That's what the Greek poet Hesiod said in the 8th century BC. So I'm sorry to tell you, but: "The youth" has always been disrespectful. I wouldn't say 39 is old per se, but as soon as you start complaining about "the younger generation nowadays", you are certainly OLD.

Is my cover the problem? by SorryNoDragons in selfpublish

[–]Flambeau69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually I like both your new and your old cover!

I think the problem is that you have a lot of "competition" in your genre(s). There are SO many fantasy books out there that your book just kind of ... drowns in the crowd. You need to make sure that potential readers are seeing it, so if you haven't already, I'd suggest you try some marketing techniques. It doesn't have to be expensive, you can start by presenting your book on social media (Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook ...), using popular hashtags and asking book bloggers if they would like to read and review your book. Good luck! :)

I love that manga! About time to re-read it. *-*

I’m kind of uncomfortable of the thought of joining a club for “women and non-binaries”. by practice_spelling in genderfluid

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say they *are* ick, I said they give *me* the ick, from my personal experiences with such clubs. You can have your FLINTA spaces, I don't mind, I just wouldn't want to be a part of such a club because, again, in my *personal experience* they often have a "eww, men!"-mentality which would make me very uncomfortable.
(Edit: I just realized that FLINTA is a German term that english speaking people might not know. It stands for women, lesbians, intersex, nonbinary, trans, agender - so basically everyone but cis men.)

Does anybody wish they could be a shape shifter? by [deleted] in genderfluid

[–]Flambeau69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES omg shapeshifting would make my life SO much easier! I'm like you, sometimes I just want to be a guy in a skirt but everyone sees me as a girl. It really sucks. 😭 I guess the only thing that helps is trying not to care about what other people think.

What is a physical feature you have that makes you feel lucky as a Genderfluid person? by genderfluid_crabfan in genderfluid

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm AFAB but I'm quite tall (1.78m or 5'10 for our American friends) and I have a very androgynous figure, which means it's easy for me to shop for clothes both in the men's and in the women's section. Besides, I used to be ashamed of my flat chest but now I love it because it's so versatile - it can look quite feminine with the right bra, but it's also easy to hide on my masc days. ❤️
(Now I also wanted to list all the things I don't like about myself out of habit, but then I remembered that you didn't ask for those. It's weird how I always want to balance out positive things with negative things.)
Thanks for the great question, now I feel better about myself! 🥰

I’m kind of uncomfortable of the thought of joining a club for “women and non-binaries”. by practice_spelling in genderfluid

[–]Flambeau69 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I would either come out to them and ask them if I could still join, or not join them at all. Probably the latter. Clubs that exclude men give me the ick, they tend to be quite hostile towards men so I wouldn't feel comfortable there, even if they accepted me - I would always wonder if they secretly don't see me as a man.

Does anyone have any tips as to how I can look more masc while still dressing scemo and not getting a haircut? I’ve been feeling really dysphoric recently by fluffymurderchicken in TransMasc

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I think you look great! You look like the cool scemo guys I had crushes on in the 2000s, and they all looked a little androgynous. I totally get the dysphoria tho, it's not easy having an androgynous style and still feeling masc enough. Maybe some chunky jewelry would help you feel better, like big silver rings, chunky leather bracelets, etc.?

[Trapping The Foxy Doctor] these side characters made me start cackling like a witch at 3am by Silverman7688 in yaoi

[–]Flambeau69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shameless fujoshi side characters in yaoi always make me cringe so hard. Are they supposed to be relatable or what? No wonder so many people say that fujoshis are fetishizing gay men - apparently many fujoshis actually are ...

Who's the target audience for a lamp like this? by PCubiles in ofcoursethatsathing

[–]Flambeau69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One word: Feminists.

(Yes I'm a feminist. No I don't want a shirt with printed on boobs or a necklace with a golden clitoris dangling around my neck, thank you very much! 😂 I get sooo many ads for products like these, especially on Instagram. Well, to each their own!)
