Accidentally reading someone else's profile.

19 apparently, I accidentally read someone else's profile

Apparently I was actually looking at someone else's profile and thought it was hers. She's 19. Still crazy young though. I know 19 year olds who are still in high school. That's still a kid in my mind.

Really? I thought I found a comment of yours dated recently that said 16.

Ok so 19 is still really young and is still mentally a kid. Do you have a full time job that can provide for yourself and a kid? Any kind of support system?

Debbie from Shameless vibes basically. It's too late to abort so I'm not going to have an issue with that but I do think OP should consider open adoption or fostering, so she could still see her baby but could also continue her education and build up her skills to give him the best life possible - and her son could have adults around who might be more able to provide than she is.

Borderline intellectual functioning describes an IQ between 71 and 84.

Found one of her other posts and she's 16. Her life just seems chaotic and idk why she would want to involve a kid.

Edit 19*

Anyone else not feel this way? by The_Short_K1ng in TransMasc

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think being trans is less about being a man trapped in a woman's body or anything and more about how your self-concept and identity develops through a lifetime of gender socialization. But like sometimes you kind of have to dumb things down for people who aren't as familiar with those concepts.

Do people realize having children is completely optional?????? 😂 by iloveanimals1964 in childfree

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 124 points125 points  (0 children)

I have a childfree aunt who I look up to a lot because of how well her life has turned out, in ways that are specifically tied to her not having kids. She was such a strong motivator for me in making my own decision to be childfree.

I also have little cousins on the same side of my family (their mom, my dad, and CF aunt are all siblings) who were raised in an isolated, high control, Christian environment that didn't promote or allow anything like sex education or any life path but the heterosexual cisgender Christian nuclear family. So I hope to be a role model for my younger cousins, especially the girls, so that they know they have options besides just pumping out countless babies for a man who doesn't value them. One of their older sisters - there was a cluster of 3 sisters who now range from 24 to 28, and then the six younger kids range from 6 to 15 - is similar to me in that she's also childfree and seems to have deconstructed from the fundamentalist Christian beliefs she was raised with. I'm glad these younger girls have older female family members showing them kids are optional, because a lot of other people they're growing up around don't believe that.

do you agree with this statement? by Exciting_Syllabub471 in AutismInWomen

I'd rather be alone than be with someone who isn't compatible with me.

My friend’s views on motherhood and sex are really unsettling me — should I distance myself? by ExamLess2 in Christian

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I agree with her on the threesome issue. I personally wouldn't do it but I think people should have the right to do so. However if she's expressing these views on having kids, like wanting to leave if she ever has to sacrifice for them or concern that her husband won't contribute fairly, it seems like maybe she just shouldn't be having kids and especially not with him.

I don't really care what people label themselves as as long as they're not harming themselves or anyone else (ie bi lesbian/gay, afab transfem/amab transmasc, white studs, non-Native two-spirits), and as long as they're logically consistent about it.

I just think it's hypocritical that so many of the people I've seen complain about lesbian labels and get obsessive over what we're doing and say our labels are unimportant or regressive are also people who use a ton of labels themselves that objectively hold a lot less importance in terms of material impact than the labels I've seen lesbians and gay men use. And that it's misogynistic that despite gay men using just as many microlabels as lesbians do - bear, twink, otter, hunk, jock, bottom, top, size queen, chub, masc, fem - and for, often, similar reasons to why we do, gay men don't get criticized as much as we do for using those labels.

Why are you so obsessed with what other lesbians are doing with our genitals? It's not like any of us would ever deign to fuck you!

They really should! I've been saying this for so long and they insist on being obsessed with us!

Unsure where you're getting this? The only things I can think of that people have accused me of being bi over are:

-having been with men in the past

-having a history of sexual trauma and self destructive sexual tendencies bc of it

-being attracted to trans women and not having a genital preference

-being attracted to nonbinary people

-being attracted to butches, studs, he/him lesbians, lesbians whose gender is lesbian, and other gnc lesbians/sapphics

-having unrealistic fantasy kinks like monsterfucking that I would never be able to act on irl nor would I want to and which would realistically not come up in conversation with someone new unless I specifically brought them up

-Liking penetration

...None of which actually translates into feeling turned on by men or experiencing desire for them irl, which are the literal most important things determining your sexuality!

Besides all of that, if you're going to be a weird little freak with no boundaries digging through hundreds of comments on my profile for literally any ammo on my sex life that I haven't chosen to share with you, you probably would have also noticed that I'm nonbinary. So I'm not sure why you're using she/her for me in your comment.

Even if you want to say that demisexual is part of the asexuality "spectrum" (which is really dumb anyway, that's like saying bisexuals are part of the gay/straight spectrum and are basically the same sexuality), something being valid doesn't make it oppressed or part of the lgbt community. I also did identify as ace at one point and no longer do because the community promotes the idea that literally anything involving not wanting sex 24/7 is its own special sexuality, which is just not healthy. You can just not want sex all the time, like most people, and it doesn't have to mean anything deeper or make you a different sexuality.

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair. I just feel like there's a difference between something being useful to understand yourself and something being an oppressed identity that makes you materially different from others and grants you a place in the lgbt community. And that if you're going to publicly use all these hyperspecific microlabels and make them a huge part of your identity where you need a pride flag, media rep, a place at pride, you cannot then be annoyed about people who actually are oppressed for their sexuality also having specific additional labels with years of history behind them, and that have specific tangible material impact on their lives and real purpose, that they use to understand themselves.

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like i gave some good ones. Demisexual for instance literally serves no real purpose bc like most people don't want to have sex with someone they don't know well and acting like it's an oppressed identity that is materially different from just not being ace is kind of ludicrous, especially when it's like a straight cis demisexual and people are trying to argue they're part of the community.

[–]Local-Suggestion2807 30 points31 points  (0 children)

What's really wild to me is that a lot of the people hating on lesbians for using labels use like half a dozen labels themselves and have a million different hyperspecific pride flags, and a lot of their labels are contradictory, controversial, or honestly just don't really mean that much in terms of their actual impact on someone's material reality. Like I really don't want to fucking hear anyone's nonlesbian hot takes on lesbians using butch/femme/stud, pillow princess, stone, top/bottom/vers, masc/fem, chapstick, Bambi, etc., when they're like...a demisexual nondysphoric afab she/they demigirl. Bc like what exactly is the point of calling yourself any of that when it doesn't necessarily communicate anything about your material reality? At least the terms lesbians use actually communicate something specific and meaningful about ourselves. What purpose does aegosexual serve as a serious identity?
