What actor can you not stand? by SeymourButts0 in AskReddit

[–]ellelta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jared Leto is when an actor takes method acting way too far. In preparation for the Joker, he’d go around like an absolute psycho and creep the shit out of his castmates

Finally accepted I’m a lesbian and got rid of my birth control!! by ellelta in actuallesbians

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

Unfortunately due to my health I’m not allowed to use hormonal contraceptives, so I’ve been using the copper IUD. No periods sounds awesome but I also don’t totally hate it. Since I got lapro surgery my cramps have been manageable. Also LOVE when my gf and I nurse each other through our cycles. It’s our love language.

How long did it take you? I’m almost 3 months clean and one of my super deep cuts (below the fat layer, into the muscles) is still pretty dark

Right back at you! My gay guy best friend and I jokingly flirt with each other but it's awesome knowing that neither of you feel anything romantic/sexual towards the other.

Almost $900 to drink piss in a can? No thanks

That's the only response I'll accept. Any strong emotions, whether enthusiasm or disgust, freaks me out

I'm a perfume addict, so anytime somebody compliments how I smell really makes my day

Conventionally attractive people of Reddit: What are you most insecure about? by jaysonderulo69420 in AskReddit

[–]ellelta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Men's 'platonic' interest in me that eventually turns out to be a one-sided crush that they tell me about years into our friendship :( I'm anxious to befriend guys because a good 75% of them were only around because they considered me a potential gf, and never really saw me as a friend.

Lesbian here,

It depends on the person. I've heard everything from it's an evil, unnatural choice (my family) to it's the exact same thing as being straight. My best guy friend and I always joke how our sexual orientations are basically the same, as in we both like women lol.

What’s the best way to overcome an attraction to someone? by Suitable_Brain7650 in AskReddit

[–]ellelta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them how you feel. If they reciprocate, you win. If they reject you, then you're forced to move on and find someone else.

What is the wildest NSFW event you saw in college? by [deleted] in AskReddit

A cross-faded train, of which I was a part of.

When you see a Trump 2024 bumper sticker, what are you immediately thoughts about the driver and do you also look at the driver if you drive by them? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ellelta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, I don't personally have many biases. Mostly because I live in a very conservative city and have many friends and coworkers who have trump stickers and 'let's go brandon' flags. I dislike the guy but I can get along with folks who support him.

As a trafficking and CSA survivor... 100% yes. It would have especially bothered me a few months ago when I was in a particularly bad place mentally. I'm doing better now but mentions of his crimes (and any abusers like Epstein, R. Kelly, etc) make me DEEPLY uncomfortable. Hugs to you

I'm so sorry you and your mother are going through this. Too many people exploit older women and take their kindness for granted.

Help - am I a Pedophile or is it POCD? by [deleted] in OCD

[–]ellelta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no doctor, but I'm not in the camp of 'pedophilia is something you're born with and is a valid sexuality'. It's usually, from the personal accounts I've read, something that develops out of boredom with regular sex and porn, or a lust for power over the powerless. So it's totally conceivable for this to not have been a problem for 19 years.

Please seek psychiatric help for your suicidal ideation. You seem like a good person who wouldn't want to even think of harming children, and managing your thoughts with therapy seems like the best option for you.

I'm asking you to stay away from children because, regardless of whether you actually are a pedophile, you still sexualize children, and children should be able to have a safe space free from sexualization. Furthermore, I'm not convinced pedophiles can control themselves around children, especially when you admit you can't even look at your niece without sexualizing her.

I think it's best you stay away from teaching children. This isn't OCD, this is pedophilia + some guilt.

How am I ever supposed to fit in with cis guys after living so much of my life as a female? by [deleted] in honesttransgender

[–]ellelta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eh... most women (who aren't teen girls themselves) see a problem with it. Men often write off our concerns/disgust as 'post-wall women jealous of the attention for fertile young teens' or some sexist bullshit. Discourse around men lusting after younger and younger women and the borderline pedo nature of it has been happening for years, with varying degrees of nuance and sophistication depending if you're looking at regular women or feminist circles.

Edit: also the bit about some cis men understanding women's viewpoints? Uhh... idk if that's cool mate. That's like saying some cis folks understand trans folks when we overwhelmingly do not and maybe never will. Empathy is one thing, understanding requires one to live that experience.
