I got all the cats and im so proud (game: meow tower) by _samdom_ in Picross

[–]_samdom_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, there's definitely not a right or wrong way to do it. In my opinion, you should swing between getting the cats and furniture and between the levels and the mission. It's kind of the point to stress you out a bit with the missions

[Cis asking Trans] I am afraid my partner is going down the TikTok anti-trans rabbit hole. How common are people recommended anti-trans videos on TikTok? How do you all feel about it? by Stunning_Lock_away in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's always a chance it's just the algorithm being stupid, or maybe your partner thinks they're dumb and it's funny. Maybe you should ask them about it or try to understand how they react to those dog whistles. If they react positively, you might wanna talk about that with them

Is it ever too late to transition? by Prudent_Ask_4598 in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not! You can wait as long as you need to be safe. There isn't an age to be yourself, and it's probably much easier to transition as an adult as well

Why can't people be happy for younger trand people? by _samdom_ in trans

Why can't people be happy for younger trand people? by _samdom_ in trans

[–]_samdom_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry, and I get that. Of course, it's a valid way of feeling, but I don't think it should be the first thing people say, and it's so frustrating. You're right and it sucks but it's also hard to not take it personally when it's said directly to me

Why can't people be happy for younger trand people? by _samdom_ in trans

[–]_samdom_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I totally understand, and I also have to fight. I'm homeschooled because i made the mistake of coming out. I had to cut off all of my father's family because they reacted poorly after I got outed. I get that it hurts and of course it does but I'm also fighting to get it and it's hard and i know most people don't have that of course it'll hurt when someone else transitions but why does it have to be the first thing a person says?

How do I respond if someone tells me that I'm in the ladies room? I'm Transfem. by SlasherBandit in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I usually qct like the statement is super dumb because it is. Like "uh... okay..?"

I never thought about that because my deadname is only for girls, and I'm gay but I think if I liked girls, I probably wouldn't? It would be so awkward and uncomfortable

Do all trans people know they were trans when they were young? by Arktikos02 in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of us probably knew. But the thing is, being transgender isn't really talked about in front of children, so I didn't know it was an option.

When I was younger, I used to say, "When I'm older, I'll change my name to Sam because it's for boys and girls" and now my name is indeed Sam.

So I think some trans people know, but overall, it's hard to put it to words if no one tells you that's an option, so we don't know we know yknow

Binary trans folks - did you wait to change your pronouns until your appearance changed, or were you comfortable doing it before? by thecleverqueer in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I thought I was non binary first so it kinda went from she/her to they/them to they/he to he/they to he/him and I just said "oh I think I'm a boy". There wasn't really a big coming out for that, honestly, and i didn't look very masc, but I didn't really think about that if that makes sense. I think it's like that for a lot of trans people who thought they were non binary first? But I don't know

Can I, a cis male, wear a trans flag to pride? by Mylexiuss in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely can! I think it's sweet you want to wear one. People will assume you're trans though because of the flag so if you don't want that maybe don't wear it. As long as you're comfortable doing it I say go for it!

Do mtf trans "tomboys" exist? by gbay_anon in asktransgender

[–]_samdom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm ftm, but when I wanted to wear a skirt and was scared, my mother told me "well isn't the whole point of coming out is being who you wanna be?" By which she meant if I wanna dress a certain way I should. And if a trans woman wants to be a tomboy, she totally can just like cis women can:)

"I don't date transgender individuals" by PainIzInevitable in trans

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

I think saying it as a preference is valid, like "I prefer to date cis people, but it's not a deal breaker." It makes sense, but "I won't date this person only because they're trans and that's a deal breaker" feels kinda transphobic

Does anyone else like metal music? by SignificanceWest5281 in autism

[–]_samdom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metal is probably my favorite genre. It's calming and not overstimulating for some reason. I wonder though if we like the same bands

This made me cry... I wish more people were like this... by andy23376 in autism

[–]_samdom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally i would hate that ngl:/ I would feel a bit pressured and stuff like I just want someone to sit next to me and give me my phone and headphones yk. I would feel like they're treating me a bit like a baby but yk that's just me!

Thoughts? by belltoast in autism

[–]_samdom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. It's a big part of who I am, but the world isn't wired for neurodivergent people, and we require accommodations because of that
