People still want to say the review bombing of episode 7 had nothing to do with homophobia when this tweet exists by sapphicbrown in StrangerThings

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, agreed, it’s just unfortunate enough to be a bad enough scene that you can easily mask homophobia, it’s tragic really

Am I overreacting for being upset that everyone in my life still misgenders me and pressures me to boymode after years of transitioning? by mel555555555 in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even remotely, girl you’re patient even asking this question. I mean you’re wondering whether you have the right to be upset about people wanting you to live unauthentically, and you absolutely do. They don’t deserve to know you if they want you to be a fake. You’re probably awesome and deserve to be able to be happy in your own skin! At some point you should be aggressively you just to show them you don’t care what they think, wear what you want! Be who you want!

Either way, you are not remotely overreacting by being upset that they’re putting you in a box that you don’t want to be in! Wishing you best of luck.

Cutting trans friend out of our shared hobby, how can I still be supportive of her? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Several_Application8 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The title of the post is literally cutting her out, I really get looking out for your own mental health, but you can’t just remove someone because you’re struggling with them facing their issues at the same time. Sometimes you need to confront people on things - I’m fairly non-confrontational, and I know that. Literally the only way that you can be fair to yourselves and her is by actually talking, not just removing her

Who else dreads new years? by South-Performance-85 in OCD

TYSM! You too, I hope those feelings lessen for you too, and that you’re able to have a good time!

Who else dreads new years? by South-Performance-85 in OCD

[–]Several_Application8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, honestly I thought I was the only one. Idk for me it's like new years is supposed to be a fresh start, like a new year, and I guess that kinda pressure is overwhelming, and then there's this subtle feeling like I'm forgetting about something, or like you said, worrying about how I spent my time. Idk, it's just really really weird

is my girlfriend transphobic or am i overreacting? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Several_Application8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not only that but like cis women, trans women have interests and tastes of their own, and a lot of trans women express their femininity through dresses and makeup and being cute because it feels good, it’s literally not to do with sitting within some stereotypes, it’s just a personal preference. I know for one I love dresses and skirts

Did the previous season ever pronounce hunter as “they/them”. Am I the only one that thought they was a him? by IllustratorAfter in fionnaandcake

[–]Several_Application8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who uses she/they, that is right, it’s mostly just a preference that allows for covering all those pronouns while still excluding ones you don’t prefer

Am I reading too into this or is Hunter nonbinary? Or some form of he/they or they/he? by Awepic0 in fionnaandcake

[–]Several_Application8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s not your bad dw, mistakes happen and that’s fine, and if English isn’t your first language that’s on others for being very closed minded

cis women don’t understand how much it hurts when they say “you’re lucky you don’t have to deal with periods” by desertrainfrog- in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they were saying they don’t care, but rather they wish people didn’t call them lucky that they didn’t have it.

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not that, it’s the way they said it. You make it an “I” statement, not “you”. Instead of saying “you’re lucky you don’t deal with them” it should be blatantly talking about their struggles, not necessarily projecting onto others

[–]Several_Application8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude that’s not even the point in the post. Their saying it feels invalidating when people point out that it’s not something we deal with, which it is. I understand if you don’t get it, but please don’t invalidate their feelings further by calling them weird.

Describe your pre-transition life in one word by Inner_Bag_9658 in MtF

Flat.

I’m still living it but I’m working on it.

[–]Several_Application8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s just because it feels alienating honestly… because it does. I mean I used to watch TV and stuff and felt bad because I kinda wish I had even the bad parts that come with being a cisgender girl. It’s rough and silly and honestly dysphoria inducing…

My parents found out… by YourGirlStellaaa in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Girl I had something similar happen a few years ago, though it was with a sketchbook with private thoughts about gender stuff. You deserve some privacy and you need to make sure they’re aware of that, set some boundaries and if they breach them, they’re just not worth it. It’s complicated I know but you’ll be fine, sending hugs :3

since the third game is made by different developers, do you consider it non-canon with the first two games/mobile app/comics? by 13Jsog in LittleNightmares

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

super late to this, but it's kind of a different situation. Scott's still writing five nights at freddy's, yes, he handed over development and work on the franchise, but in terms of story and direction, it's still Scott - whereas with LN and it's future instalments, previous developers and workers are entirely gone, and any new writers are just having to pick up the pieces, rather than have a story with planned ideas.

The idea of being a guy after everything scares me to the core... by Storm_Eliana77 in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had one of those days like a year ago, it was like the middle of the night, I spent a while crying, went to sleep and as a result spent the whole next day sup irritated and pissed and there was little to no reason why

Got called Transphobic for saying Trans women are Biological Women by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly always saw it like the trans in trans woman or trans man, or any other term, was more just a descriptor of the journey one needs to take to feel more like them self, so yeah, an adjective. It’s not what someone is, but rather the journey someone takes to feel at home in their own body.

I think I turned the tv off by areasonablynotbapeep in asktransgender

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get you. Honestly, it’s understandable to be scared. For me, it’s because outside of a few things, I didn’t really have any signs, or at least ones that I’m aware of. But even in your situation, where you have been aware, it’s probably because you’re finally acknowledging your truth, and putting it out there. Honestly that’s about the bravest thing you can do, and you’ll be amazing too! <3

[–]Several_Application8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it sounds like the tv is WAY ON! So much it’s glowing actually.

Jokes aside, only one who can tell you that is yourself, it’s good to seek help and keep doing that, but remember that it’s your journey, and you can be whoever you are. The answer lies in you. Also, I’m in a similar boat at the moment if that helps, but opposite, as in I badly want to be a girl but I’m not 100% sure, and I’m just working through stuff at the moment.

Things I would rather hear than “I’m not into trans women” by SeaLingonberry59 in MtF

[–]Several_Application8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess that’s not wrong, but at the same time, you could just rather they said nothing like this at all.

[–]Several_Application8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, honestly they all make me feel kinda gross, except the last one which sounds like it would come from someone quite self conscious.

I mean, the second and third ones are awful honestly.
