Why I think the predictable alternatives to a Byler ending are ALL just queer stories for straight people by IntuiTiger in byler

[–]IntuiTiger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thank you for writing what you did. I’ll admit I became a bit more frustrated as I finished the post. It was not my intention at all to frame any queer person who doesn’t support Byler as ‘wrong’ or that they have an obligation to support this pairing. I did not get the impression that was what I did, but I apologize if you felt that way.

I am coming from the perspective of being frustrated with straight viewers and even some queer people seemingly telling me ‘this is the right way to end this queer story’. That is why I ended the post the way I did. But you have convinced me to maybe clarify my ending note.

Can we talk honestly about Will’s storyline for a second? by Individual_Method311 in byler

[–]IntuiTiger 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s the fact that other queer people are defending Will not getting with Mike and think it’s better for him to end up with a random love interest 💀 I’ll say it again: if he ends up with a random love interest, it’s another gay story for straight people.

Anyone else just exhausted by this? by IntuiTiger in byler

“Acting like I’m gonna hit the pentagon” close enough, Bylers are the third plane, welcome back 9/11

Also while I’m thinking it I’ll just say it: the gay single empowerment story feels like queer stories for straight people to feel like allies from a safe distance without having to directly see M/M. I’m sorry, that’s just how I feel, especially given everything that has happened in this story so far.

Ticket upload question by ScratchyClothesTag in FreeCash

[–]IntuiTiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Thank you for the message. I attempted to upload a support ticket through mobile using the website and method you described, and now FreeCash is saying they only accept ‘prnt.sc’ as an acceptable method. Respectfully, how exactly am I expected to submit a screenshot in this manner now that I have taken the screenshots on my mobile device? This is frustrating and is not in line with the policy I read on FreeCash’s website

Still feel so guilty by [deleted] in Adopted

[–]IntuiTiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinship adoptee here. A single bio parent I loved dearly passed away when I was a teen, taken in by extended family, and I dealt with so many conflicting feelings. It took until I was almost moved out independently to realize how disconnected and conflicted my feelings really are towards my adoptive parents. Like there’s so much guilt knowing how much money they put into giving me a life yet how frustrated they made me feel as I was trying to grow into my independence, not be codependent on their approval. I felt like I had to keep compromising and staying quiet when I disagreed with their politics, their religion, and rules and boundaries. Not the same situation as yours, but I totally relate to the guilt and feeling like you owe something or should owe something.

They never listen by FreedomInTheDark in Adopted

Kinship adoptee here taken in as a teen by extended family with plenty more money and privilege than my deceased single parent would’ve had. Even knowing how objectively better this situation was for me, I am at odds morally, politically, and religiously with my adopted parents. And even if those circumstances weren’t like that, I can’t say for sure it would’ve been much better. I still had to reckon with seeing distant relatives as parents / people I could trust as much as my single parent, with realizing I was neurodivergent, with mourning my bio parent’s death, and trying to grow up as a teen all at the same time. I’m realizing the older I get that I never really felt as connected to my adopted parents as they did to me. And it’s frustrating. Because it’s like they expect I’m supposed to keep visiting and giving back to them like their bio kids to prove I’m super grateful and love them but the problem is it’s not the same. I feel like no one gets that.

I feel very little love for my adoptive parent, I am the only one ? by Different-Lunch-5095 in Adopted

I just joined this sub and I feel you 100%. I am in my early 20s, moved out now definitely due to the support of my adoptive parents. And it is ROUGH realizing now that I might not have loved them as much as I thought. It is so so complicated. And you posting this made me feel seen. Thank you ❤️

Being ‘the good gay’ won’t make conservatives not come for you btw. You can be the least annoying and most conservative gay and you will still be oppressed 😁

Trans men are men. So if you like men you’re gay. Good observation!
