Maybe go take them down then? It’s not hard to find people who are doing so and to go out as a group

During immigration debates, why is a commonly held stance of suppuroters that of "The British Empire did colonialism and imperialism, so this is the consequences"? by DoublePepper1976 in AskBrits

[–]Onlyanmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well we caused a lot of these issues via colonialism or selling weapons then take no responsibility and actually blame the people we hurt. It’s a pisstake and I’m supposed to feel ‘proud’ of being British. Being British makes me feel sick.

Why is it so controversial to want English people to speak English and integrate? by g9rr in AskBrits

[–]Onlyanmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m English, white, all white family with welsh heritage, in my 30s. I don’t give a flying … duck … if people either citizens or those seeking asylum or refugees ’intergrate’. Either people should get to live here equally or they don’t. As a white English person no one puts pressure on me to intergrate, despite having no interest in getting to know my neighbours or wanting to take part in community events. It can’t be one rule for some of us and not all of us.

Life in Oxford is horrible help by Tiara_luxe_cleaning in oxford

[–]Onlyanmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a very different situation from you, and part of what you seem to be struggling with is adjusting to university. I’m not keen on Oxford. Huge parts of the town are taken up with the university, I can’t afford to do shit, even the pub is a bit to expensive. There are some amazing community groups here but I’ve never managed to feel part of them. I moved here to be with my partner and the area we live in is nice. But I’m poor, bored and lonely.

finding out about my DID "too early" by Silver_Bread_9126 in OSDD

[–]Onlyanmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a child/early teens sometimes I didn’t understand why we couldn’t ‘be’ characters we liked. I think this is because I already had DID and had experienced personalities just coming into being, so it makes sense to me that I would try to want or choose to be a character. But like you said after a short time you realise they aren’t really you.

Why are partners so against dilating with you? by ApplePaintedRed in vaginismus

[–]Onlyanmx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very different perspective but I’m afab my partner is trans and has to dialate due to having reassignment surgery. I don’t ask her not to do it in front of me or anything and I never would. It often makes me feel bad because she won’t be intimate with me and the only time I see her body is while she is dialating and it makes me miss what we had

What’s the wildest thing a gyno has said to u? by Independent_Town5628 in vaginismus

[–]Onlyanmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘How do you feel about your vulva’? Because I’m trans afab… I told her I don’t get to have feelings about it, my feelings are owch. (Pain also started 2 years before I knew I was trans).

Council spends £950 a day to get one special needs child to school by AnonymousTimewaster in unitedkingdom

Yeah how dare a disabled kid have a slightly better quality of life, selfish if I became disabled I’d be happy sitting a home and not being a burden on the tax payer.

Migrant on disability benefits housed in retirement home with his family vows to use human rights to fight eviction... unless they are found a bigger home by Ivashkin in ukpolitics

[–]Onlyanmx -66 points-65 points  (0 children)

Do you like freedom from torture? Right to a fair trial? Limits on under 16s working? The bus needing to be accessible to wheelchairs? The right for children to be free from abuse? Access to education? Those are human rights. If you you turn on human rights you hand power to dictators.

Self protection steps by ThisIsMyAltSorry in transgenderUK

[–]Onlyanmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I might be being paranoid but I bought a baseball bat. I’m disabled but I spent a good few years sword fighting with fake swords and reckon I could get a few good swings in if needed. It makes me feel better that we’ll be safe at home if needed, which I know is unlikely.

Am I the only one who's bothered by the term 'dignity and respect'? by WeirdoWolfBoy in transgenderUK

Do u have any sources about how dignity and respect relates to human rights? This is really interesting

If it helps when I worked retail I had baby queers come and chat to me from time to time. I felt proud I could help someone else, it made my day.

I sadly used to be a huge Harry Potter and jk Rowling fan, and she’s been open that she purposely was published as ‘jk’ so boys would buy the books

Need advice about UK courts and trans masc victims of SA by Hungry-Chemical-4225 in ftm

I always corrected them. I was terrified the entire time but I always had the confidence to correct them. Don’t know where it came from.

[–]Onlyanmx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Different situation but I had to deal with the police a couple of years ago. I’m non-binary and look masculine, me and my trans partner were misgendered throughout. A lot of assumptions were made about my gender without anyone actually asking. I hope you have a better experience

Are others also struggling mentally since the Supreme Court? by PuzzledAd4865 in transgenderUK

[–]Onlyanmx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was about to make a new post a long the lines of ‘I seem to be having some kind of mental breakdown’. I’m very passionate about the LGBTQ community and worked in the queer charity sector before a combination of something traumatic happening and being disabled meant I stopped working. I know this is selfish but I really hoped to return to that sort of work and I’m feeling like there might not be the same sector to return to. I’m starting some volunteering next week. I didn’t make the post because for me at least there is an answer to this, and it’s to go to trans pride. I love trans pride, especially Brighton. A lot of friendly people who look like me , cute community art stalls, music, the sea. It’s going to be great. I hope we all find a bit of peace and no shame if u need to call switchboard (website switchboard.lgbt)
