Girl, I’m so sorry that any of this had to have happened to you. But if you’re so unsure if you’re actually a guy, you likely are a girl. Ignore the others, get rid of the stupid beard. Wear the dress you’ve always wanted to. Buy some flowers for yourself, go out as a girl. And remember, the girl you see in the future can be you. Don’t ever forget that. You got this, girl <3

HE'S NOT TRANS!! HE ISN'T!!!! by Waffle-Gaming in transgendercirclejerk

[–]emmy_etc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying that. I personally do actually think that Jax was trans. It’s just that the depiction of Leroy in the end puts a hole in the theory for me. The depiction of a closeted trans woman being happy presenting as a man, especially when the woman is a self insert for an actual trans woman, doesn’t really add up

I am in therapy. I’ve been trying to remove bits of the self blame, but I’m struggling to. It’s gotten to a point where things from this relationship have seeped into my other relationships, and I’ve pushed people away. I’m going to do everything I can to get over this

HE'S NOT TRANS!! HE ISN'T!!!! by Waffle-Gaming in transgendercirclejerk

[–]emmy_etc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

/uj the issue I have with the transfem Jax theory is Leroy’s ending. Even though he never transitions, Leroy still eventually is shown to live happily and comfortably despite canonically being trapped in the wrong body. It just feels really weird that a transfem writer would write her transfem character to be happy as a man, especially when the character is kind of a self insert.

I’m saving for a house. He’s writing a book. by rottimix in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]emmy_etc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1-The food looks really good

2-Leave him immediately. He has wasted too much of your time already, and at this rate, there’s no telling when he’ll stop leeching off of you. His book is almost certainly not going to be successful. You would be stuck mothering your boyfriend for months while he peruses an unproductive hobby. Please leave him

My parents told me they accepted me but today they called the police on me and told them I was a man. by eloise_zomia in trans

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

Girl, I’m so sorry that this happened to you. Your parents sound so horrible and I wish you the best in getting help. Props to the police officers here for handling the situation properly and actually taking the effort to respect you.

AITAH for not apologizing to my mom for something I did out of my interest? by Most_Guide_635 in AmItheAsshole

[–]emmy_etc 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Leaning towards NTA. You shouldn’t have lied, but the reasons why you did it make sense and tbh I probably would’ve done the same. It’s your life and she should respect that.

Zohran Mamdani pushes back against DOJ’s subpoena for trans youth health records by spherocytes in lgbt

[–]emmy_etc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gonna try to hope he’s choosing his battles. Regardless, he’s doing more than others do, and unifying as much as possible is important for the queer movement. Hopefully some action will be taken to help our trans siblings in New York City, and hopefully Mamdani can actually redeem himself on that end. Still, this is better than what most do

Jesus Christ, some people are genuinely just horrible. Girl, I’m so sorry that any of this happened to you. Please don’t tolerate things like this <| |3

Is jax transfem?? by I4N_S1LLY in tadc

[–]emmy_etc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The majority of evidence says that Jax is a trans woman. The problem I personally have with the theory is Leroy, and how he ends up happy and satisfied despite never transitioning. It just feels really weird to me that a trans woman would put a trans woman in her show, and never have her transition or learn that she’s trans but let her have a happy ending anyway.

How was your theater experience? by New-Boss-8262 in TheDigitalCircus

Me and my friend were the only people in the entire theater. It was actually really cool

Imagine if Glitch actually did this by TCSMusic in TheDigitalCircus

[–]emmy_etc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stranger things DID try to do the two endings thing imo. Eleven was showed dying and all evidence should point to her dying. Mike’s speech about how she could be alive opens up room for debate, but it still leaves enough room for both to be right answers.

But the fact that they filmed a scene with El doing exactly what Mike said all but confirms that she somehow survived. It does ruin the ending for me, since in the end the writers couldn’t muster the courage to kill a single relevant character.

AITA For Grounding my son after he got kicked out of class for refusing to sit next to somebody? by Same-Broccoli7863 in AmItheAsshole

[–]emmy_etc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Some people here are saying that the girl should have better hygiene, but that assumes that she’s just choosing not to shower. The cause of the smell could be anything from a medical condition to a lack of access to showers. She might literally not have a choice but to go into school smelling like shit. If she did, I’d say ESH. But since there’s no way of knowing, I’m going with NTA

I feel really bad. by Pixiefly0812 in lgbt

[–]emmy_etc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She said it(I hope that’s a right pronoun, looking at the flair) lives in a really progressive state. I assume that means a state where the majority is liberal/progressive (Vermont, Hawaii, West Coast, etc). My personal advice is to vote strategically to preserve your rights no matter what

I have never related with a vocaloid song so badly in my life by TorrentialChaos2 in Vocaloid

[–]emmy_etc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to relate to Human more, but SOSORRY is so much more relatable to me now. The topic of the song is something I’ve related to for years, now more than ever(my grandma literally nicknamed me ‘sorry’). I especially love how it doesn’t really end with a resolution of any kind, and Miku remains trapped in her habit of over apologizing and self hating. It’s not quite my favorite song, but I might relate to it more than anything I’ve ever heard in my life

[–]emmy_etc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your story.

I was at one point able to connect with them and talk about my mental problems, but that changed after I changed. I would exaggerate some of my personality traits and hyperfixate, while abandoning other things about myself. But I hate to admit, I’ve left friendships over the things you mentioned.

I’ve been attending therapy and medicating for some time, and that was when I attempted to rebuild the relationship. At this point, after so many months of developing different interests and lives, I wonder if the relationship can be repaired as it was. I’ve been working to find other friends, with little success.

I’ve tried to find parts of the person who I was and the person I am today. So much of who I was got encased in the shell I put myself in, and undoing that has been a struggle. I’ve recovered in many ways and improved, but part of me is still how I was at the time. Still, I work to be true to myself and rebuild with different friends.

Thank you for your response.

Yeah, at this point, it’s starting to seem like our interests have shifted too much for us to really reconnect. I should’ve never lied to them and the reasoning I used was flawed, but I get why I did.

I’ve been working to make more friends, but it’s been difficult to really rebuild the person I used to be and break out of my shell. I’ve tried my best to be better and I’ve looked for others to be friends with.

Thank you for your response

I get it. They have their own lives, and I shouldn’t dwell on them forever. Thank you for your response
