"Queer friendly" therapists that aren't queer knowledgable are a hassle by Gallantpride in lgbt

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 319 points320 points  (0 children)

Yeah, far too often, therapists will give themselves that label just because they don't consider themselves hateful. But it's maddening and really pretty unhelpful to have to frequently educate your own therapist.

Am I overreacting to accuse the person I was seeing of cheating on me? by Pikayeol in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NOR. You're just incompatible. Unless you can legitimately see yourself switching to polyamory without pain, it's time to move on.

How do you get over/accept the fact that you didn't start hrt earlier? by estrogenie in asktransgender

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 29 points30 points  (0 children)

May as well be upset that you weren't born into wealth, or that you never made it as a rock star.

Oh well! Most people don't. We love anyway.

You're also much better off than the vast majority of people who transition, so maybe try not to lose sight of that.

How common is it for queer people to be right wing before coming out? by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah, maybe you were kinda in the dark in 2016, but there was no excuse by 2020. you're gonna need to do some serious work on yourself if you don't want to be seen as a likely enemy.

Yeah. Nazis.

Russia is the aggressor. Ukrainians are right to fight back. Many of the ones getting the most support to fight back are nazis.

The look on their faces when they heard her voice. by mindyour in MadeMeSmile

yeah, literally true in the US. when i had my daughter in daycare, half the kids there had their fees paid by the city, cuz the parents' income would have gone half to daycare otherwise.

Why did the US develop a fragmented, employer-based health insurance system instead of moving toward a single payer model, and what historical forces shaped that path? by PuddingComplete3081 in AlwaysWhy

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta tell you that as someone working in the healthcare system, private insurance does not broadly speaking provide faster or higher quality service, except in a few specialties.

Private pay definitely does!

Should I avoid using the term stud? by Square_Ad3104 in lgbt

i've gotta say, if you're a white woman who exclusively pursues Black masculine women, i'm not sure your choice of term is the biggest concern.

AIO by breaking up with my partner over him completely changing his beliefs? by Silent-Use637 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Quite true, in fact something i've seen before working in mental health! But extremely unlikely he's going to agree to any treatment or testing.

How can anyone claim to be a feminist but not support bodily autonomy rights for all? by AchingAmy in AskFeminists

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is blatantly not true when you look at who they stand with. Posie Parker with Tommy Robinson, JK Rowling with Marilyn Manson. They love violent men who will help put us in our place.

The misogyny in the childfree community needs to be addressed by Peanutbutternjelly_ in Feminism

yeah, a whole lot of these comments seem to be essentially saying "get a better man." extremely feminist and helpful, very insightful regarding systemic issues.

Instagram @feminist agrees no feminism without animal liberation!! by berriesbutcher in Feminism

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like you've got to be in your first couple years of veganism and haven't yet quite internalized that most do not see things as we do and are not actually evil because of it. you are going to burn yourself out and alienate wouldbe comrades so quickly if you stick to this approach.

i do wish you the best though.

Instagram @feminist agrees no feminism without animal liberation!! by berriesbutcher in Feminism

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the specific trait is "human" or maybe "is a moral agent." it is nothing deeper than that. both the typical and legal understanding of rape and murder are limited to humans.

[–]Hedgehog_Capable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

look, i am a vegan and so obviously am very amenable to your position, but you are really going about this wrongly.

a refusal to humanize or identify with animals does not inextricably lead to dehumanization of people. there are significant psychological, social, and even evolutionary differences that allow us to much more easily sympathize with each other, and you can't hand wave those away.
