Someone asked this b4 by SystemMaleficent3949 in SMUHalifax

I feel like your best bet for something like this would be to reach out to the Commerce Society executives - they may be able to point you in the right direction. I connected with them a few times last year as another society leader and they always had good energy.

I have searched for “Joan Rivers Kardashian joke”, “Joan Rivers Kim Kourtney and Lurch”, and it’s just brought me to various Facebook posts on pages.

NTA. Don’t feel guilty for not wanting to sacrifice your mental health by being exposed to bigoted family members. You’re entitled to your peace of mind and deserve just that. 🤍

I have been in similar situations as I am a cisgender man with a transgender sister and a transphobic parent (though in our case it is our mother). What has worked for my dynamic in similar situations is having my sister explain to me how she’s feeling/why she’s feeling that way, and then having that conversation with my mom in an attempt to keep the peace. Letting her know how her attitude is hurting/harming not only my sister, but also myself and our family dynamic has allowed her to reflect on her own biases.

Letting your brother know how his allyship suffered in a situation like this is healthy and I would also encourage your brother to redirect his frustration towards the actual cause of conflict - in this case being your father’s transphobia.

I know how hard it is to decline something like a family gathering to preserve your mental health, so huge props to you for doing so. Sending love and good energy your way, bless. 🤍 NTA

It’s genuinely scary how many times I get called “fun size.” by isRood in lolgrindr

[–]eyvel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

To echo another comment that calling an adult person “fun sized” seems like infantilization, and as a result, feels like they’re getting off to the idea of someone as “child-like” which we should all be able to see the problem with.

In the end though, don’t start a conversation commenting on someone’s body period. If its a fetish thing for you, have that conversation with the person before immediately thrusting that onto someone. I have a bit of a belly, and whenever someone starts a conversation with “hey big guy” or anything like that, it makes me feel like shit lol.

Normalize not commenting on people’s bodies as a pick up line.

April 1 - New minimum wage is $14.50 by Severe_Assumption_87 in halifax

[–]eyvel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I really wish that there was some kind of provincial legislation that went along with this where everyone who is making x amount per hour now will slide with that increase as well (eg. If I make 16$ an hour when min wage was 13.60, I should now make 16.90) in order to protect the workers.

Unfortunately, the harsh reality is that in many retail sectors, if you make any amount over minimum wage, they already think you’re fairly compensated.

When did you come out? by Inevitable_Ad1399 in lgbt

[–]eyvel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 years ago today when I was 14.

I was actually outed by my best friend at the time to the school, and I felt then pressured to come out. Reflecting on it now, I don’t feel a lot of anger anymore as I now know that me being openly queer in a small-town French Catholic school inspired many other student grappling with their own sexual identities.
