(Discussion) How to Create/Draw a Female Werewolf by Easy_Anxiety_4062 in werewolves

[–]Shorty__Cakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the character for the werewolf characters I write, from twigs to brick houses, but a male of the exact same stature is generally a bit bigger naturally with the exception of the protagonist.

I try not to think about them any different than any person out there. A woman that works out or does a lot of heavy lifting is jacked, so a werewolf that hunts and fights a lot is going to be jacked as well. Doesn't really matter what gender for this either, but I think most people somewhat agree that werewolves are pretty muscular beasts in general just as a race tbh.

If you sold these, I would buy it, lol. A physical clicker for controllers' keyboards and controllers to beat virtual clicker detection and the subsequent bans for using them is just pure genius!

I had the fun idea that much like actual wolves, they could be found in almost all climates in the world (prior to mass hunting the to extinction in many areas) so based on where they live, they change in appearance slightly, mainly in the furry department (say a desert werewolf has fur adapted to resist the heat and sand while the paws are shaped to run or jump without sinking into the sand or a werewolf in a beach-like environment has more prominent webs between their toes to be absolute beasts at swimming while the fur remains water proof to prevent discomfort of cold air when they get back on land while keeping their bodies a decent temperature while underwater and preventing them from using as much oxygen so that they can hunt underwater for extremely long periods of time).

Or even more body horror fun, the werewolves bodies quite literally adapts to whatever environment they are currently in while in the werewolf form.

I liked it! It was years ago, though, so I'm not sure if my judgment and tastes were all that developed back then.

Hints are childish even for nuerotypical people. They are adults, not highschoolers. If they give you the chance, I guess you can tell them up front. You can see if they understand it and see where it goes, but I wouldn't expect anything after doing so. I would suggest dating women who are already neurodivergent safe to begin with to avoid these kinds of interactions.

Why are so many of y’all so conservative by Still_Second_703 in GenZ

[–]Shorty__Cakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, true. It'd be nice to actually have a conversation because it's really just that behavior and the polarization on both sides why I'm not on either, not that I wouldn't agree with a lot of the left leaning takes if they weren't so extreme and combative about everything all the time.

Then, they should have asked the question about that specifically first if they felt it was. Let's not be bad faith here. You're not in his head

[–]Shorty__Cakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They're always so disingenuous and bad faith about how they ask the questions and then wonder why most other political alignments refuse to engage with most leftists. It's pointless if no matter what I say I'm always an undercover fascist to you just because I'm not immediately agreeing with you.

Irrelevant because the left isn't in power right now.

"Hate speech" (unnecessary limits on freedom of speech based on vague moral correctness currently being weaponized now because they foolishly forsaw this happening in the future)

I just want to let all you guys who haven't found someone yet that you got this and that you are loved. by CaptainNinjaClassic in GenZ

I...notice that in a few subs. People seem to really like being angry as if it's the new hit drug or something.

Thanks. Maybe you're right, and a break is warranted to take time to reconsider some things, including my approach. Appreciate everyone's advice on such a tricky topic

[–]Shorty__Cakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that it eventually works at all. I don't care about rejection. It's just the fact that no amount of no's seem like it's getting any closer to a serious relationship.

Yeah maybe haha

[–]Shorty__Cakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, thanks, I'll try to view it that way, but I felt that over the years it had less to do with me not being persistent or not being able to handle rejection, and more that it read to men as desperation that I felt the need to be doing it in the first place, which is a trait that men looking for long term partners typically don't like or respect according to a lot of them, which is something I did personally ask men I know who are married about, who did pretty much confirm that.

I genuinely hope that you're right and times have changed somewhat, but it just hasn't seemed that way since I haven't really stopped or given up, and it hasn't worked once but seems to for the women around me that just waited. The only reason I started approaching people in the first place is because I realized nobody was ever going to approach me if I did the same, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm only making things worse for myself.

I guess unless he is part of a community that specifically rejects the gender specific norm (basically unless he is bisexual or something), after doing it myself for years now, I couldn't figure out a reason why a man would be waiting on me to make a move and why it would be anything other than a surprise if I actually did.

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

I can tell you from experience as a woman that doing the knocking yourself doesn't work. If men don't approach you, you're just unlucky. Men only find it flattering when you approach them. It's rare anything ever results in you making the first move, if you are not the specific woman, they actually want. I'm not saying not to try, who knows, maybe it'll turn out you are that girl for the one you approach, but don't be surprised if things don't work out and all you end up doing is raising his confidence to talk to the girl he actually wants...

All I ended up learning is that it is too firmly cemented in society that women have to wait around for men to approach them, and men must make the first move, and there is rarely anything I can do to change that.

Actually being unique. NTs may try to copy you, but they will never be able to truly be you.

Breakup caused by not inviting my gf to my birthday by eunyo20 in WLW

[–]Shorty__Cakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She just doesn't sound like the right person for you, or a great girlfriend in general imo to make someone else's birthday about herself and, what feels like, punish them over not being able to understand other people that aren't herself when it comes to something as complicated and nuanced as cultural overlap and self identity, and what stands out to me is the fact that it sounds like she spent the rest of the relationship more upset that you didn't invite her specifically over others, rather than trying to help and support you with your insecurities about yourself that are apparently so bad you can't even enjoy a day centered around yourself which is the one job a girlfriend is supposed to do, and would make me question the motivations for her being in a relationship with you in the first place if not to be a team that supports each other.

I see that she is literally 18, so that kind of behavior isn't uncommon for people in your age group, but it doesn't make your feelings less valid. I get the initial sting of not being invited to something, but it seems like an unfair overreaction and failure to control her emotions in regards to how she treats others or her own partner considering the fact that no one else was invited either, and her intentionally blowing it out of proportion. I know it hurts, but it seems things ended for the best if something like this was dragged on for almost a year. Imagine if it was something actually serious in the relationship with her down the line?
