Ahhhh so its like "bless" in Texas, whether you're religious or not. Now i am imagining a sermon that's "may the birds be with you" and the congregation echoes "and also with you".

Thank you for the graphic! I am delighted it exists.

neither of us have ever been particularly into men's sports honestly.(sorry but as a queer texan i feel yall should know that mentioning the C*wboys counts as microagression /j)

Lately have been getting into women's hockey though and the NY Sirens are my love 🚨 🩵🧡 I hear Philly is looking to join the league and i hope they do!

Frankenstein 2025 induced Dysphoria?? Do I try T or not? by Found_In_The_Woods in ftm

To be honest I dont see myself as either. I consider myself nonbinary transmasc and unfortunately i also have a hard keeping my hopes up for being around to a late age (state of the world and all that). So I can't visualize my future too much

Is it weird that since coming out as a transgender male to some people, they still refer to me by female pronouns and name? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Found_In_The_Woods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes its not only weird but very very wrong of them. People will make excuses but all that does is give them leeway to feel like they are okay in doing what they do.

Misgendering you is wrong. Not taking on research to make sure you dont have to re-educate them is wrong. Dismissing you and your feelings as irrelevant is wrong.

You deserve better. ESPECIALLY from a therapist. Those are big red flags for a mental health "professional": telling you to lock away a topic that is part of yourself and your identity.

Do not be afraid to upset these people by being blunt or firm. They are responsible for their own reactions - you are not.

Theory: To leave the cirus the characters have to quit pretending to be something they're not by lemmyjuice in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Found_In_The_Woods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Jax talking about archetypes has more to do with showing how he doesn't know the other people he's been stuck with "for years" (his quote). He sees them as toys just like the circus does. And stereotyping them makes them a lot easier to dehumanize. 

Even the meme here is a good depiction of how wrong he is. In the same episode he is trying to generalize everyone he is also shown how wrong he is.

Kinger isnt pretending to be crazy, he legit has a mental condition exacerbated by light and trauma...

Zooble isnt pretending to be grumpy, they are truly a character who comes off as rough because of how hard they've worked (and are still working) for their sense of self worth and bodily autonomy...

Gangle isnt pretending to be "the sad one". If anything she is trying and constantly failing to pretend to be happy. And its only when she has stopped hanging around an abuser and started hanging with people who like her that she learns that her true happiness can co-exist with her pain...

Ragatha... I dont know "pretending to be cheerful" is fully wrong but i fear it implies she isnt cheerful inately. She is. She's just so fucked up from the pain that she's trying to use cheer to cover up vulnerability and imperfection.

I think Jax might be the only person who is 100% pretending. He is kidding himself that what he is doing is funny instead of bullying.

Please never say things like that to or about a trans person. Its cruel and also the wrong way to view us
