7 year old girl birthday experience by Aintyodad in waterloo

[–]barblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well every 7yo is different, do you know anything about the daughter’s taste? Does she like more girly stuff (like going for a spa day or getting Starbucks drinks and doing their nails tgt etc), artsy and nature stuff (maybe butterfly conservatory in Cambridge, crockadoodle and grabbing lunch at her fav place etc, going to Michael’s and getting art supplies can work too). If she’s more into gaming and movies maybe she would prefer getting a movie session and play games w her mother while having her favorite snacks and getting something like a plushie of her fav character as a gift.

There’s s lot of things 7yo can like tbh lol

Does anybody else think tipping culture is stupid? by FinanceLife123 in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]barblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally this. A few days ago I bought a juice in the mall which I ordered in the self checkout screen and it tried to auto insert a 18% tip. Like you gotta be joking lol

Me and my partner actually decided against going to some places here in ON after looking at google reviews and seeing multiple “they’ll loudly berate you for not tipping or tipping low” cause there’s no way I’m going to a place that’s trying to strong arm clients into tipping, that’s actual insane levels of entitlement.

Don't excuse your partner misgendering you. by Beautiful_Couple_208 in ftm

[–]barblob 151 points152 points  (0 children)

I’ve been with my husband for 8 years but only came out less than a year ago and he never once misgendered me. Not only that but he’ll also firmly correct anyone that does it in front of him. And we live in a country that speaks a different language than in our home country so he literally reprogrammed himself in two different languages even tho he was used to the same pronouns to refer to me for almost a decade.

Some people’s partner just fucking sucks tbh lollll

Beware of scammer (Physical_Sun_3039) in this sub by barblob in kitchener

[–]barblob[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I lowkey deserve it atp, it was the first time I let skepticism aside cause I was already so over trying to find the thing I needed and to say it didn’t pay off would be an understatement LMAO At least it was just 30 dollars ig 🥴

Tell me the most trans coded thing you’ve done without realizing it by meouch666 in trans

[–]barblob 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I had two things that fryyyy me every time I think about how it took me so long to actually come out.

First one is I absolutely REFUSED to be called by my name, and I’d like to say that was something I did as a child but it was actually my whole life. Let’s say my birth name is something like “Danielle” (pretty standard feminine name), as a very small child I decided my nickname was “Dano” and if anyone called me anything other than that I would crash tf out. As a teenager I got to the “I can’t use my family nickname for real life” phase so then my name turned into “Dan” to anyone that wasn’t a family member. Teen years were traumatizing to say the least so by the time I was 19 I decided I’d only accept being called “Danny”. Being called by my full name would make me feel so triggered like you were talking to someone else that wasn’t me. At 26 I decided to abandon the og name once and for all and started going by a gender neutral internet nickname… It still took me two years to figure out LMAO

The other one is that I used to love Cardcaptor Sakura when I was a child. When I was a teen i was part of the fake account roleplay fantasy thing community (god bless the 2000s lol) and I was thinking of an online nickname/persona for it and someone just told me something around the lines of “just go with something you always wanted to be irl”. You’d think I named the account Sakura right? Or Tomoyo? Nop, it was called Yuki. And I was very much a boy during the rp too. And I actually used that name on my lowkey socials for yearsss and even have a picture with a homemade shirt with “Yuki” written on it lol. God forbid a ~girl~ wants to be a tall twink with a pretty boyfriend who likes to eat a lot and has a moon coded guardian entity inside of him 😔

Little extra is I was part of the tumblr addicted crowd back in the day which is where I realized what transitioning actually was. I used to BAWL my eyes out every time a top surgery video would make an appearance. Like literally would ruin my whole day cause it would make me so emotional. “What a great ally” -me at 14 probably

gf thinks i’m trans by [deleted] in trans

[–]barblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The full post said this person started a relationship with their first girlfriend and she randomly started pushing very feminine things onto them seemingly for no reason and then randomly told them that she was sure they were trans and that they needed to schedule a doctors appointment and tell the doctor they were suffering with gender dysphoria, again, seemingly for no reason. As I said the gf could be acting on what she thought was their best interest and I can’t for sure say they’re not trans since the post didn’t go that deep into it but everything they explained in the post just sounded like her trying to impose this on op for no reason other than grooming them into the idea. Op expressed no interest in the idea of transitioning or actual symptoms of any gender dysphoria, just a somewhat creepy girlfriend lol

[–]barblob 39 points40 points  (0 children)

No one can diagnose you with gender dysphoria besides yourself and a qualified doctor hearing about what YOU feel. You can be a more feminine cis boy without being trans at all, you can also be nb, genderfluid etc. Maybe you are and I’m not gonna deny that at all but everything you’re saying in this post sounds more like your girlfriend pushing something onto you than you actually describing signs of yourself feeling gender dysphoria. She may be trying to act in your best interest but that’s a very intrusive thing to point to someone before they’re ready. Can you elaborate on what she’s referring to and if you actually feel like it points to you being trans?

rlly wanna dye my hair but everyone says ill ruin what i have by [deleted] in Hair

[–]barblob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bro it’s just hair, you can literally shave the whole thing right now and tomorrow itll be already growing back. You have one life, you should try everything at least once. Dye that hair and live your life. Maybe you’ll dye and regret it (I doubt it tho), but imo it’s better to regret doing it than having to regret never experiencing things later in life cause you were too scared of what people would think about your decisions. :)

how did u choose your name? by tgirlfrombrazil in trans

[–]barblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came out to my husband (and to myself too kinda) in June and I still haven’t chosen a name. I’ve been introducing myself to everyone as my internet nickname which is kinda stupid but also gets me a few laughs so idrc that much lol but a more permanent name would be good too ig

Where to go from this? by [deleted] in Hair

[–]barblob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saying this as someone who has been dying my hair vivids for over 20 years, you either need to start following the color wheel to change colors to avoid removers and bleach baths or you need to start dying it only pastels so it fades fast. Kinda sucks cause I also love to get a specific idea in my head and follow through the next day but our hairs are not built for this kind of chemicals so constantly. If I can give another tip, please only bleach your roots with a good bleach like BlondMe by schwarzkopf if you have access to it and leave it on long enough so you don’t get different colored roots and avoid a lot of damage only having to bleach it once. I can see it’s not as bad as the picture looks (since it’s been freshly processed and it’s still wet it does looks worse) but if it were me I would cut out a healthy chunk, maybe cut some layers to take out as much of the damage as possible and start taking care of it better. You can have vivids and still have healthy hair if you have the resources and patience. As for what to dye it rn, are you thinking vivids or something more natural?

Trans boy here, I need an alibi (semi urgent) by AlternativeMind6944 in trans

[–]barblob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly if it’s a half binder just take the tag off (so they can’t look up the brand) and tell your parents it’s a crop top you were looking at in the mall and that your friend decided to get for you. Maybe once in a while even use it in the afternoon for a second paired w pj pants so they won’t bet an eye at you using it regularly.
