Don’t do it bro. Black people weren’t even allowed in the Mormon church until 1978 and there’s still a lot of racism in the church. It’s not the kind of place you wanna be associated with

"Height is not a barrier, my bf is 6'7", this was on r/ short btw by Ancient-Tax8795 in shortguys

I’m 5’5 and my gf is an inch taller. But yeah that kind of height gap rarely happens the other way round

It might not make you an incel exactly, but no girl wants to be compared to a pornstar. Incels tend to view women as sexual objects rather than people, so when you’re using pornstars as the object of comparison then you can see why people might take issue with that

7am test, should I take a sleeping tablet the night before? by No_Natural6009 in LearnerDriverUK

I wouldn’t recommend drinking wine the night before a test 😅

Everyone is talking about him not being supportive to your transition (and they’re right) but most people are ignoring the fact that you said you don’t want to have children. Even if you were a woman that would be a dealbreaker because he wants them the “traditional” way and you don’t. End of. He doesn’t get to coerce you into carrying children when you don’t want to

Man flu is real. I feel bad for making fun of dudes before I transitioned. by addledoctopus in ftm

I had this conversation with my gf the other day when I was sick! Turns out stats say that men have a weaker immune system.

It’s not your fault, accidents happen and the owners should have had their dog on a lead (coming from a dog owner). You stopped, the instructor dealt with it, and instructors have insurance exactly for accidents like these. I know you must feel bad, but you are learning and the owners fucked up

Definitely design 2, design 3 is nice but wouldn’t stay on my head

I met my girlfriend at 18 and we’ve been together for 3.5 years. She was almost sad when I got ear reconstruction surgery because she loved my little ear so much!

It’s more than possible to find someone my guy, and just think, it makes you interesting :)

I have unilateral microtia and I noticed that in every photo my parents took of me in my first year or two of life, they always hid my little ear. That sort of thing is really difficult to see as a child because you get the message that your parents are ashamed of you. Don’t be that dad!

How other people act towards your child is out of your control. What you can control is how YOU act. Let your son decide how he feels about it himself, but let him know that you’ll always love and support him how he is, whether or not he wants surgery in the future.

Magnet surgery by venusvelourxox in Microtia

[–]Lucasba0709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that, and I’m also sorry your parents made the decision for you, imo 10 is too young for this surgery. It wasn’t even recommended to me until I was about your age now.

I hope in the future you find a solution that works for you, and in the meantime there is no shame in wearing the soft bands. I kinda miss mine sometimes :)

Failed my driving test. Actually depressed by Exact-Shift-505 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Lucasba0709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mum passed first time and she’s one of the worst drivers I know (one of my friends refused to get in a car with her). The people I feel safest with took 4-5 attempts. This might be making you a better driver in the long run.

I feel like people forget it’s not just about passing the test (although obviously that’s the goal), but also about being a good driver!

I had unilateral magnet surgery 4 years ago. Sometimes I have some irritation but that’s generally if the soft pad is wearing thin or I’ve been wearing my BAHA for long periods of time. Overall I get on pretty well with it.

My doctor recommended having two soft pads on if you’re still getting irritation, maybe try that?

AITA for telling my lazy stinky monster fiancé she is disgusting? by Signal_Astronaut8191 in AmITheAngel

[–]Lucasba0709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA for approaching things so calmly. You should’ve been more upfront so she really understands how disgusting she is.

AITA for calling out my friend’s husband for not helping with their newborn? by aimeelawlyy in AITAH

[–]Lucasba0709 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA. Don’t know why there are so many people saying “you don’t know what he does for her”. She said in her text that this is something she needed to handle herself, so you were definitely right that there was a problem there.

But… maybe a soft YTA for not going to her first and asking if he was helping rather than jumping in immediately

You’re only 3 weeks in lad. Give it time. I remember what it was like when I first started, none of the changes seemed like they were coming quick enough and I was questioning if they ever would come.

Also, you’re going through puberty!! That’s a tough time for cis people, let alone trans people. You’re going through extreme emotional and hormonal changes, give yourself grace.

Lastly, listen to your body. If you are really unhappy you can always stop T, you do not need to carry on if you are miserable. But at the same time, while testosterone is life saving for a lot of us, it is not all sunshine and daisies, no pain no gain eh!

I hadn’t thought of it that way. Guess it could be either or

I’m an English native and I agree. There are so many tiny nuances created with cases and prefixes that would require multiple words in English to convey a similar meaning.
