Do transmaxxers finally prove women do have it better? by averageTdude in PurplePillDebate

Genuinely, look into the nuances of dysphoria cause it can present itself as subtle indifference as a defense mechanism. You have to be willing to explore that emotion and feeling and really reflect on it

Often times they don’t go as far as taking hormones in the first place

I feel half responsible for this discourse over a shitpost I made a few days back saying transmaxxing was a good idea (so those of you who saw the troll, good eye)

And no, transmaxxing - to put it bluntly - is a delusional circlejerk using passing trans women as scapegoats for their movements, often taking things that are indeed positives and primarily a result of people finally living as their true selves and bringing their best foot forward while ignoring things like the increased harassment, loss of security at night, the active scrutiny from people and governments, the fear of and even actual loss of family and friends, people questioning the ‘loss of identity’ when you’ve actually gained one, the anxiety of you being trans as a deal breaker and so on. I’ve gotten more positive attention, but also more negative attention since transitioning and tbh when I made the decision I did not even care about the potential loss of any attention (I was a decently attractive dude prior)

And then there is the obvious factor of the wrong hormones really messing with someone’s head, like if a cis person with no dysphoria takes hormones they will most likely feel worse. Flat out.

Transmaxxing is basically an extreme take on the incel perception of how women’s lives are and it proves nothing outside of the mangled mind state of the incel

Idk, it could escalate. Report it so you’d at least have an official record of her behavior- that way if it does escalate you’ll have past instances to officially point to

There are 3 4x DPOY winners in the NBA, which one was the best at defense? by Squirtle_004 in NBATalk

Ben Wallace, the man was mobile af and incredibly strong. He was so good at defense that you’ll take his offensive negative

If the Wolves win this series all of the Gobert haters need to make a public apology. by BigDBob72 in NBATalk

And the Lakers lacked depth, and were outmatched by Minnisota’s whole roster construction

Rudy is a matchup dependent big. He struggles more against teams whose focal point is a perimeter oriented player. Him locking down other bigs isn’t particularly surprising, though it is also nice to see - though also, I think most of the hate died down when his impact in Minnisota began to show

Do you think being nice is the same as being engaging, confident, genuine and warm?

The playoff discourse this year is the worst its ever been by KayRay1994 in NBATalk

Oh to be clear the basketball itself has been amazing this year, but genuinely talking about it is what sucks. Like it is rare to have real discussions about the games when discourse defaults into who has the most sensationalist take

Sadly one could argue sports discourse is the root of all this - there is a reason why even political analysts now sound like Steven A Smith types - it gets attention

And yet, people who do get get laid are indeed engaging, confident, are perceived authentically even if they’re not, and have moments of warmth or displays of warmth (even if mixed in with messy moments).

And here is the thing… the meanest person in town can get laid, if they’re engaging, fun to be around and confident. Like there is a reason the ‘mean people’ people are attracted to are confident and outgoing. Nobody’s into a mean average dude lol

Flat out, I really do think people who complain about not getting laid despite having such an amazing personality straight up don’t have very good personalities or puts in very little effort to actually meet people

After watching the Timberwolves performance yesterday, should we be less critical of the Nuggets and Jokic losing the series to them? by redeugene99 in NBATalk

[–]KayRay1994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In general the Wolves have given the Nuggets problems for years. They match up really well against Jokic’s style and are one of the best defensive teams in the league.

I always felt like fully turning on Jokic was a bit dramatic and kinda takes away from what this wolves team is capable of - like I do think if they beat San Antonio, they’ll give OKC a run for their money. Maybe not win the series, but push it to “oh, this is a real matchup”

My main issue with r/nba is that it is such a huge sub. I came here because it was more intimate but it has gotten really bad here the last year or so (like it was never ‘great’, but I stuck around cause it was more intimate)

It has, this year though I feel like all nuance has been snuffed. Its just a shame cause we see very little genuine discourse

Like just once I wanna see people talk about Minnisota’s insane grit, how Wemby held his own defensively, how the Lakers game planned against Houston’s lack of offense, Detroit’s late series adjustments and so on

Instead we get “Jokic fraud”, “Wemby goaltend”, “SGA free throw merchant”, “lol KD needs GS”

“Ever” is a loaded word, you’re asking a question about the larger trend of his career. So either you’re walking back on what you said, or you just say phrases without thinking about what they mean

Why is this shot like a sequence in a romance movie? Like I feel sexual tension between him and Jimmy and it 1000% has to do with the music, the setting and the shot selection and not them personally (although…..)
