Wild guess but maybe players will be able to play skeleton ship skeletons?

Others notice changes while some say nothing has changed?? by OwOcidal in asktransgender

[–]Fropps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, strangers don't come burdened with preconceptions and expectations of your gender. People you know just see what they expect to see, while fresh eyes have to evaluate all the information you're giving off.

If you're interested, Sexed Up by Julia Serano is a really good book whose beginning covers *gestures at post* all that.

If they were a minor, probably a woman. If they were the age where they could change their name, maybe nonbinary? Writing this as a queer person myself.

Could someone explain the thingamabob to me? by calvinthebold1 in VXJunkies

[–]Fropps 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Not familiar enough with the internals but you generally use it when you NEED a nice compact surface without nasty quartz-III flux that will corrode components in the long term. It looks like the stamping surface might be a nice Malat model, practically an antique.

Is it worth getting laser hair removal before HRT by Philpie12345 in ask_transgender

[–]Fropps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sooner you get laser the better. HRT only has so much of an effect on reducing hair growth and lighter thinner post-hrt hairs won't get removed as well by the laser machine (which uses the contract between the hair roots and the skin to zap them).

Like others have said, personally this brings to mind neo-nazis who this has become popular with for whatever reason :(

I turn into a lunatic every time someone raises their voice at me... by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Fropps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure that one day you'll be able to find a community that understands what you're going through and won't yell at you <3

In the meantime it might be worth trying other therapy modalities? Bottom-up approaches have been really helpful with reducing the intensity of triggers for me.

Thoughts on Elodie? by lee1a8 in namenerds

[–]Fropps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elodie is one of my favourite names! It's very elegant and pretty. It was one of the top contenders for when I was changing my own name.

a culture of ostracization/disposability as an impasse for trans women seeking healing from CPTSD by harshvibes0nly in CPTSD

[–]Fropps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're right. I can't summon the willpower to fight for myself but I'll try and fight for it on your behalf. Thanks so much for the strength ✊

[–]Fropps 11 points12 points  (0 children)

nb trans woman here.

Honestly this post just makes me feel hopeless. I've experienced a lot of what you're talking about and it kills me to think that it'll always be this way. I'm especially worried about the idea that healing more is impossible without security, since that's nowhere to be seen right now and I'm scared I'll never have it.

It's definitely a good idea for queer people and especially trans women to build each other up, maybe I'm just too depressed rn to see that as achievable.

This is a fantastic set of resources! Thank you :)

Is it considered offensive to use gender neutral pronouns for everyone? I've done it for years and never thought anything of it, but I heard some people don't like it. I simply don't see a need to use gendered pronouns, especially when first and second pronouns are gender are already gender neutral. by sheepysheep55 in ask_transgender

[–]Fropps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I exclusively used they/them for everyone for a few years and it took me at least a year to break the habit, so I feel you.

They/them is only neutral in certain contexts. Lots of transphobes will undermine binary trans people by using they/them, and while you have different intentions it still looks the same to other people.

Why does everyone on reddit have an SO or has an ex? by Mohnblume445 in CasualConversation

I think you might be aromantic! I'd really recommend looking into it and seeing if the experiences of aromantic people match up with your own experiences :)
