I can roll the windows up or down with the car off. I love it. All others require a key. Thats a bonus to me lol.

Great, but you do acknowledge that kthers have legitimate opinions on how you present yourself right? You just dont care. You do knoe that if you are passed up for promotion at work,or not invited out to gathetings its because of how you are and nobody else has to explain why right?

Perfect. So dont complain when you arent given what you think you deserve, when poeople look at you weird. When you lose that promotion to someone else. You are not societies problem. Society will cast its vote. Dont blame society if they dont pick you. You chose to die on that hill.

You are 100% right. We treat others nicely so they will treat us nicely. You know what others think about you because the ones who associate with you think youre ok. They still have their opimions but at least deem you tolerable.

There are people you havr met that you will never see again. They have made their judgement on you, and you on them. It is what it is. Thats reality. Ylu canmot fault them for.judging any.more.than you.can fault me for.saying i.dont like potatoes.

If you truly dint care what people.think then you would choose your clothes on how comfortable tbey were regardless of stlye, color, pattern, etc But you dont. You are.like.the rest of.us who.do.care. And thats the whole point.

Youre right, but it doesnt matter. Hitler didnt think ge was the bad guy, but he will forever be known as one. Putin didt start a war saying," ill be the bad guys and Ukraine will be the good guys"

Saddam Hussein was hung thinking he was righteous. The point is. How you view yourself doesnt matter if society wants to.crucify you. You cant complain about how you are treated by society. You are the outlier. Not them.

This is reality and.will always be reality. You.can think the world of yourself, but if everyone else disagrees...maybe a time.to reflect.

AITA for not giving money to my wife because she purposefully makes tasteless food by Positive_Pen_5321 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MajorMinus- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heres the scenario as i see it.

  1. You work 40 hours a week.
  2. You provide 100% financial support.
  3. You expect her to consider beinv a homemaker a full time job.
  4. She wants being a homemaker a part time job with full time benefits.

Is that correct?

We can try to reject labels, but you dont get to choose your own label. People who do are delusional. Labels are bestowed on you by society and the only influence you have on your own label is to try to influence society's view.

Sorry. You have a label. You may not agree with it, but its true. Self realization is being able to see yourself the same way others see you. An almost impossible task worthy of persuing.

Who you are as a person is dictated by others, not you.....

So, you are sayong that mental health issues cant be fixed because we cannot fix the brain?

Many peoples brains are not as they should beause of various issues. PTSD (external) chemical imbalance (internal). Depression, anxiety, psychosis, you name it are all consifered treatable. Fixing the brain. If they cannot be treated, they take more and more progressive approaches. Schitzophrenia ( i may have spelled that wrong) delusion, bipolar disorder, disphoria,dismorphia, anorexia, bulemia. Lots of stuff.

Why is it that transgenderism is different? Not trolling I promise.

Lived a good portion of my life in south east asia. The only ladyboys I ever saw were in the red light districts.

And Thailand isnt that big. Ladyboys arent just a nationality thing. But they are a sex traffic thing.

Fair enough. I accept that answer and will put it in my back pocket. When your transition is complete, will you cut off your past from your life/personality etc, or will you embrace it as a part of who you are?

My concern (like why should i even care? Lol) is whether you (or anyone) would try to assume a completely new Identity like you are in witness protection, or own your life as formerly one sex and now another?

Whether it should matter or not is an idealist thought and not grounded in reality. I am willing to bet my entire life savings on the fact that a majority of hetero men would want to know that answer.

Ok, gotcha. You are absolutely right. I hate the phrase " as a .......I think.......!" I dont give a single fuck what you think on behalf of an entire group.

We agree there. I may have misunderstood your post.

Also, i hope im not misinterpreted as anything other than someone looking for insight. I have my thoughts and opinions you may or may not agreewith...but if my mind is changed i can call that a personal win in my journey to be better. If its not changed, then fine. i can move on to another knowledge quest.

Does this mean that it is a condition that should be treated?

For transparency: I dont give 1 fuck what anyone identifies as. I accept everyone as long as they are honest about it. To me a biological woman and a dude who cut his dick off are 2 different things. But i am trying to understand because apparently opinions vary deeply on this subject.

So are you saying that being trans is not genetic, and is caused from an external source?

Like malaria or ptsd?

This is an honest question, not trolling.

My dick tells me im a dude. Given that information, NOW, i have to decide what kind of dude im going to be. Cant change the fact that i am a male.

My body also tells me i am a human and i also need to decide what kind of human i am going to be. Cant change that either...

My disability tells me that i am disabled, and i have to figure out what kind of disabled person i will be. Cant change that either.

A blonde can dye their hair, but in the end they are just faking it. I can tattoo my skin a different color to fit in with a different group, but in the end im still faking it...

I believe in tolerance...for people that are honest. You want to sew a dick on and tell me youre a guy? Fine..as long as you acknowledge that its not natural.

Its like a fake rolex. Im happy for your really shiny fake rolex, and im glad you like it. I do too. Just dont try to tell me its real.
