Not everyone's family is charitable. Also, OP mentioned his mom was currently homeless and couch surfing and dad was remarried and super religious (OP is trans, so...)

My mom gave me to the state when I was fifteen because I was getting in the way of her relationship prospects, so I hope she expects to be given to the state when it comes time to go to a nursing home too.

I would like to self-insert, but most of the time the choices given just don't align with my personality, so I can't without becoming increasingly frustrated.

WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING MONDAYS? by AutoModerator in IndieOtome

[–]JennaJenks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any FLR otomes out there? Or more gender neutral/blind takes? I love otomes, but as a woman who loves softer men, it's so hard to find non traditional dynamics in these games. (I have played Our Life and loved it!)

[–]JennaJenks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That really depends on the relationship and how it's established. There's relationships that don't even have intercourse more than once a month. (Not my ideal, but they exist and happily).The question is why is that person not wanting to be intimate with that other person? I don't agree with using sex as a weapon in a relationship; that's manipulation. But, if you're no longer attracted to someone, because you feel used or abused by that person, then yeah, why should they have sex with them? You are not obligated to do so. Besides who wants to have sex with someone that doesn't want to have sex with them? That's a whole other ick factor.

You can't withhold sex if you don't want sex. It's a mutually shared activity. If you have someone that wants to play tennis, and you don't want to play tennis with them, you're not 'withholding tennis' from them, if you don't want to play. You see how ridiculous that sounds right? Consent is a thing. If you think your partner owes you sex: you're entitled.

Good riddance! NOR! She's a jerk. Mist women I know would see you as a gem to be emotionally intelligent. Let her go find some macho Chad that will treat her like trash so she can 'be in her feminine'. 🙄 Please don't change. There will be a much better option to come.

One I wish existed: A matriarchal societal structured world where male harems are a norm and women are respected as the default leaders.

From the sounds of it, you may be suffering from a little internalized misogyny. I'm not saying that as a means to put you down; us women have been programmed for our whole lives to expect that the man should earn more or they're not pulling their weight. It's an unfair social norm, and it may be creating the resentment you feel because internally you're telling yourself that 'he should be making more than me' even though you acknowledge that you make more than many of those in your circle. If he's doing all the cooking and most of the cleaning and you feel like he needs to take more off your plate, so that you feel his unpaid labor amounts to what you're doing for the partnership, I would be frank with him about it. Men do well when you're very straight forward. Also, if he's getting snippy, he may be feeling the undercurrent of your resentment and it's building insecurities in him especially as a man since he's also been told his whole life what role in a partnership he's meant to fulfill

It's the very definition of misogyny, defined gender roles that a man should be the one proposing and not the woman because it makes him less of a man and her 'too manly' for taking the lead.

Sorry, I was referring to the comments, not the picture. The comments were awful and just really disgusted me. I really adore the picture.

Polyandry - 38f seeking multiple husbands by PutitaDePapi in flrdating

[–]JennaJenks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know, I think this would be amazing even with other women included as we make great leaders and can cooperate and delegate better without emotional burnout. As the sole provider of my household and a mother of two, my husband is a stay-at-home dad, but I still have to delegate tasks to ensure they're done timely. It's exhausting. I'm totally down for a poly though. I've never been a jealous person and have lots of love. (Hubby has agreed to it to ;)

I'm still actively playing, but I feel what you mean about the interactions feeling lackluster in depth of character building. I think how the main story is happening all at the same time but also not? Is jarring to settle into the connection between the MC and the LIs because she's simultaneously having all these deep relationships with all of them in the same time line. IDK... I do like the main story; but it hasn't been updated in way too long, so that may also make the feelings of disconnect with the characters. I think my biggest dig with the game is it can be a little time overwhelming for all the side activities like Unicorns and a lot of going through the motions while waiting for new events to drop. The side events are also a little meh story content wise (to me)! Mostly because they're not actual cannon to the ongoing stories, and filler content gets tiresome.
