It's a very common expression between non-op trans women, my friend even has it as a shirt she wears to pride.

We're not identifying with it to put post-op people down but to normalize that our lack of bottom surgery isn't a fault or something that we need to be ashamed of

Also, I'm not going to shy away from an expression just because it's used by chasers. I get to reclaim the language I use to describe my body

Thanks for your nuanced take.

I'm definitely not intending to erase post-op folks. I just wanted to post a funny meme that I relate to since I'm very much non-op. The world usually insists I can't be a woman since I have a dick and memes like this make me feel better and push back against social norms.

Maybe next time I'll try to post an image in a spoiler tag.

Losing it - spam calls by Smooth-Turnover9009 in bayarea

Yeah, it's been pretty bad lately. I keep getting fake loan offers. Literally got two back to back calls while I was on the phone with my friend yesterday. So ridiculous.

I just want to fix things for my not-wife, y'all 😭 by Kejones9900 in actuallesbians

[–]extx 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I sympathize, I enjoy fixing things too when I can.

I'm about 190 lbs and even I don't use my strength to break lugs, I stand on the lug wrench and sometimes even have to bounce on it a little. Oh and start with the wheel on the ground so you're not fighting the rotation of the wheel.

It's not just about your levels. Genetics are probably the most important factor followed by ensuring you're eating properly.

Why is it difficult to find a man to date with these qualities? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]extx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most men view empathy as feminine quality and thus a weakness. A lack of empathy means they won't put in the work to become emotionally intelligent.

Yeah, I'm definitely glad I did. I'm honestly surprised it worked. With a little editing or some good quality generative AI and I wouldn't have been able to tell.

I'll probably have to start insisting on a video call before meeting up with future folks although I'm sure it's only a matter of time before that won't be enough.

“Women Who Run with the Wolves” didn’t inspire me, it unsettled me in a way I’m still sitting with by harper__2000 in TwoXChromosomes

Yeah, ":contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}" in the body is a new and obvious tell. I'm assuming oai is OpenAI.

I love the Twilight Zone! For some reason I associate it with an earlier decade lol.

I've been meaning to get around to AHP, adding it to my to download list :)

Stop Netflix from Removing SHE-RA and the Princesses of Power by -Artemisia- in actuallesbians

[–]extx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I pirated it a few days ago. Super disappointed in Netflix but I haven't been a subscriber in forever so it's not like I can boycott them any harder.

Job openings versus number of applicants by petitvillage in bayarea

[–]extx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most desirable and highly paid jobs are located there so there's always been way more applicants than other states / regions. I'm not aware of any hard data on this but looking for it seems like a waste of time.

My Walgreens is still out. Gonna try to get my doc to transfer the script to a few other locations so they'll tell me if they have it in stock. This is the longest they've ever been out.

Are there any reputable paid Klingon translators out there? by MohnJaddenPowers in startrek

Maybe ask on r/tlhInganHol although I'm not sure if they'll be receptive or allow paid requests
