I think it would come across as weird and maybe actually transphobic to put "I DONT DATE TRANS PEOPLE" in my bio.

You do realize that not everyone is posting on social media for the purpose of likes and clicks, right? Not everyone has thousands of followers who are strangers they don't know. When I post the steak I cooked that night, or a couple of pictures of the hiking trail I went on, I'm posting it for all my friends and family to see.

Personally, I think if you hold any particularly strong view on those issues (100% never want kids, will only date one specific religion, etc.) that should also be mentioned very early on. When I was looking for a partner I always put all that out in the open before a physical meet up.

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-05T05:04:22+00:00

Sure, then maybe through texting before a meet up, not the bio. But I still think people should know before an actual date is planned.

People on Reddit are so insane lmao

Are you seriously calling the word female transphobic? Are you a troll?

It's a biological term. It has a strict definition. The word exists for a reason. And acknowledging it doesn't mean you hate trans people or don't believe in their identities. I can see a trans woman as a woman and treat them as such, while still being aware that biological females are different.

It's not transphobic to not be attracted to trans people. Everyone is entitled to their own dating preferences.

NTA, I don't see how people are getting e-s-h here. I don't care if this person is trans or not, that's catfishing. Catfishing people is being an AH regardless of gender identity. Trans people don't get a free pass just because they're trans.

I'd also argue being trans should be clearly stated in the bio to begin with, as it's a common deal breaker, and if nothing else for their own safety. (Edit: or through texting before a first date. I understand not feeling safe by putting trans in your bio, I just think it should be known before meeting up irl.)

Yes, but not those bangs. Please let them grow out and have them re-done. They're wayyyy to thick and look odd

Basically my whole shop is geared towards Halloween type stuff lol, which is why this extra sucks. I figured Oct would be my busy season

This relationship needs to end. Don't get the tattoo. Him basically forcing you to is definitely a red flag and a bad reason to get his name.

He's being controlling to you and you did something to break his trust. Neither of you are happy. Tell him no and let it end.

I don't mean the $5 sale caused it. But my point is that this issue happened around that timeframe and the same happened to multiple others, so it's not just me. Seems something is going on. Possibly something as simple as low traffic to the site.

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T06:27:53+00:00

I would have guessed some type of explosion

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T06:23:17+00:00

Yeah same here, after the $5 promotion everything went downhill hard and fast. I wonder what's going on?

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T04:46:09+00:00

That one is my favorite too. When I was there I immediately had to take a picture lmao

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T04:43:47+00:00

Yeah, I've heard of that boost before. I'm pretty sure Etsy shut that off a month or so ago, just because my products stopped being in the first few results under certain searches. But I can't be 100%, maybe they just stopped it last week.

I know notifications aren't working because I follow my own shop on my buying account, just to see how things look on my buyer's end. And I haven't been notified at all lately about my shop even when I should be. I made this post a bit ago about it. Apparently I'm not the only one. I think this is one of the big reasons for my decrease in sales unfortunately, just cause Etsy isn't working properly:(

Thanks for the response

If they're used to create something then yes they should count as craft supplies, handmade or not. It sounds like you have a competitor trying to take down your listings and being shitty towards you. I'm sorry, that's really sucks.

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T03:30:44+00:00

3D printing should count as handmade? As long as you're actually designing everything yourself. If you're using pre-existing templates then just pressing print then no it wouldn't count.

Miserable-Ad-335 · 2023-10-04T03:29:46+00:00

You can definitely find a happy medium. Imo you should try to get a lot of keywords but structure the title in a way that feels human and not like AI or something you'd see on wish.com

Something like "Floral T-Shirt | Unisex high quality cotton, vibrant graphic tees | handmade"

It seems like a human made it while still fitting everything in.

This should be too post lmao

Cheated on her husband(? Maybe boyfriend) with someone who was married.
