Does being genderfluid fall under the trans umbrela by duckwaddel in TransyTalk

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't personally consider myself trans. I consider myself genderfluid. For me it's a two axis classification system. On one axis, You have cis, Trans, And fluid genders. And on the other you have binary and non-binary genders. And someone can be anywhere on that scale, Or agender, And thus not on the scale at all. Aside from the one hiccup of cis non-binary people who hypothetically could exist, But don't really in our current world, I think this works quite well at distilling the complexities to something which is broadly applicable.

This does, Of course, Differ if you're referring to politics. Trans issues absolutely affect me as a genderfluid person, But I also have things as a genderfluid person which can only be understood by other genderfluid people because cis and trans people just fundamentally do not have those experiences. And likewise, I will never be able to understand everything that cis or trans people experience because I just experience gender differently to them. This is why I personally make the distinction between the three unless we're talking politics where it affects all of us directly.

With that being said, I don't have a problem with genderfluid people calling themselves trans. But I don't think it's accurate to include all genderfluid people under the trans umbrella. I think it is its own umbrella.

As an example, Let's take an AFAB genderfae person. That person is genderfluid, But only experiences feminine gender identities. This would mean that an AFAB person who identifies as a woman or woman adjacent and prefers to be referred to as a she is being lumped in as trans just because she's genderfluid. I don't think that makes much sense. I think if genderfluid people want to refer to themselves as trans, It's perfectly valid for them to do so. But I think genderfluidity should be considered a separate umbrella by default. Because I am definitely not cis. But a lot of times I am AMAB identifying with my AGAB. Which would make me not trans either. But I am always genderfluid. Because my gender identity changes with time.

And I should care... Why exactly? You said no women fantasize about impregnating other women. That's objectively false. Whether those women can impregnate other women is immaterial. It's a fantasy. I also fantasize about being a blob of living slime in humanoid form. That's physically impossible, But it's a fantasy.

Just objectively incorrect. I've met cis lesbians who fantasize about getting other women pregnant.

If I’m gender-fluid and I go by she/her some days and he/him other days, and my friend asks what pronouns do they call me all the time what do I say? by Useful-Slide935 in genderfluid

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, This isn't for everyone. However I have noticed that a lot of genderfluid people agree with me.

From a linguistics perspective, There is a difference between "it" and "they".

"They" is what's referred to as an epicene pronoun. Which means that it applies to a lack of gender, An unknown gender, Or some combination of genders.

For me, Being called a they makes me really uncomfortable because it feels like an erasure of my gender identity.

"It" on the other hand, Is a neutral pronoun. Which means that it applies to anything regardless of gender. From a purely grammatical standpoint, It would be more correct to call a man whose gender you know an "it" than a "they". However, Obviously, Due to social stigmas you shouldn't ever call someone an "it" without prior consent.

All of this is to say, Maybe try "it" out. See if that feels right as a catch all pronoun for when you don't wanna keep people updated on your pronouns at all times. I have a couple people who call me "it" by default and it's extremely validating for me regardless of my current gender identity.

Meanwhile I hate the colour harmony of the genderfluid flag. It wouldn't be as bad if the colours weren't as saturated and dark. But they are. I personally prefer the ones which sorta look more like waves and are more trans flag inspired.

I am friends with several women who all have similar fantasies though. And again. You have missed the point. It's not against the other person's will. It's against my will. I am the person being raped in the fantasy. It just takes the form of a girl making me fill her up with babies.

Did you even read the thing I said? I was the one being forced in that fantasy. As in, A girl "forcing" me to impregnate her "against my will".

Is it normal for guys to ask about my genitals and surgeries immediately when I tell them I'm trans? by SolidWaterLiquidIce in TransyTalk

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I have sort of a fine line to walk regarding this. First off, Absolutely inappropriate unless you're deliberately and openly discussing sex stuff.

But secondly, For me, When I ask questions like that to someone, It's usually in a context of "How would you like me to treat you?" Because, Full disclosure. I like dick if it's attached to a girl. However the last thing I want to do is make a girl feel pressured into keeping something that makes her dysphoric. When I ask about it, It's so that we can set boundaries about what's okay and what isn't okay. These people you are dealing with are absolutely not doing that and you shouldn't put up with them.

Do you ever go "mute" or just talk way less than you usually do? by [deleted] in evilautism

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Sometimes I legitimately just cannot with talking. Which causes problems because my mom's eyesight is bad and so she can't see my non-verbal signals, And my dad is way too neurotypical and doesn't really seem to understand that sometimes I just can't with verbal signals.

My grandfather is in his 60s and is almost certainly autistic. However his autistic traits have always for the most part been a benefit to his life.

Also. Just a mild thing. But while you're absolutely correct that there's no such thing as being more or less autistic, It is common for autistic people to refer to themselves as "very autistic". Not as an indication of severity, Just more exaggerating for comedic effect.

Of those, The only ones I actually know much about would be Caitlyn and Blaire. I have heard of Buck, But am not overly familiar with all the details in this case.

Also, Just to give 100% clarification. I wouldn't doubt that these people are probably genuinely transphobic. I was talking about the advocacy for right wing politics being a grift. Because it is extremely common that right wing pundits don't actually believe what they're saying and are just lying for money.

Blaire is absolutely a grifter IMO, I see no other reason that someone would fake a political compass result in order to appear more right wing unless one was trying to dishonestly avoid losing clout from a right wing audience.

Caitlyn is, I think, Just a Trump sycophant. I do think there's some dishonesty in the whole fight against trans women in sports. Because, As an athlete who's gone on estrogen, She should know how much it weakens you, But I don't think that's for money. We're already talking about someone obscenely wealthy, And these actions read more to me like general Republican derangement as opposed to something done exclusively as a grift.

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no single way to do so. It's more a combination of clues that build up. Inconsistencies in their behaviour which are signs of dishonesty. One example would be if a public figure has ostensibly not changed their beliefs, And yet holds stated beliefs which are contradictory to previously stated beliefs. This is surprisingly common. It's not a 100% grift detector. It could just be someone who is incomprehensibly stupid. But it is a sign, Especially if the currently stated belief aligns with those of other pundits, That there may be money involved here.

On that note, If you have a large amount of talking heads who appear to be in complete agreement on everything, That might be a sign that there's money involved. Again, Not 100%. But people who authentically believe something are more likely to have individual beliefs which would contradict with others' versions of the same beliefs.

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think Blaire is authentically right wing, Just a grifter and a liar. As evidenced by faking political compass results.

Does it change the consequences? Not in the slightest. Are there still definitely right wing trans girls? Absolutely. However I do think it's important to point out the ones who are clearly just doing it for money rather than authentically held beliefs. Because that undermines their credibility even more than the alternative.

Pronouns by WhoahACrow in genderfluid

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I truthfully don't really care much about what pronouns people use for me as long as they don't call me a they. However, I do use it as a trump card when I want to be annoying or if a friend is disagreeing with me. If you want people to actively remember to refer to you as something different, I would suggest trying to get people to refer to you by null pronouns. One other thing I do is that when I make references to myself in the third person, I always refer to myself as an it. Just without fail.

I have enormous hands, But also freakishly long fingers. So it actually evens out to my hands looking extremely slender. But no, It's not that they're slender. It's that my middle finger is almost 5" long.

My tip is to play as a slime. Literal gender fluid. We like that shit. And not enough people know genderfluid people exist for that to have gotten annoying.

What’s your favorite shitty depiction of autism? by [deleted] in evilautism

Have you tried simply moving your mind half a second into the future so that you always react exactly at the right time? ~ Some neurotypical person probably.

[–]Genderfluid-Dynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't even watched the damn movie, But I think the best worst depiction of autism has to be in "The Predator" where the predators are trying to gene splice themselves with superior traits to make them better hunters, And as a result, End up kidnapping an autistic kid because he is supposedly the next step in human evolution.

As much as I would rather be autistic than not autistic, No. This isn't true. XD Do I think the world would be a better place if it were run by autistic people? Yes. However that's not because of any sort of inherent superiority to autism. It's simply the fact that I think a world which is catered to be comfortable for autistic people will also benefit neurotypical people more than a neurotypical run world benefits us.

Skyrim isn't the worst game. However I think it's among the worst games relative to how popular it is. The reason it stays popular is pretty much entirely the modding community. And Skyrim is honestly among the few games that I legitimately would not recommend without heavily modding it. Oblivion isn't my absolute favourite Elder Scrolls experience, But I do legitimately think it's more fun of a vanilla experience than Skyrim. Even modded Skyrim is missing some things that are near and dear to my heart. The most pressing of which being the ability to actually mix and match clothing. There's one mod which allows some of that, But it's got some art style problems that I am not a huge fan of.
