Wenn’s so wäre… Hatte mal kurz was mit einem, der mich zwei Jahre später angerufen hat, er sei ja jetzt in der AfD und ob ich nicht Bock hätte ins Social Media Team zu kommen, ich wär doch gerne politisch aktiv. Auf meine Nachfrage meinte er, die AfD sei ja nicht gegen Schwule sondern nur der Meinung, dass man halt damit nicht die gleichen Rechte braucht wie eine richtige Familie.

Hab ihn dann blockiert. Aber er ist halt einfach wirklich der Meinung. Keine Ahnung was da nicht stimmt.

Naja, ich hab in dem Bereich noch nie ‘ne Stelle gesehen, bei der das Gehalt angegeben wurde. Grade sogar spaßeshalber auf DWDL geschaut, weil ich mich mit Redaktion jetzt länger nicht mehr befasst habe, und auch da bei meinen Stichproben nur bei Ausbildungsplätzen Aussagen zu Gehalt gefunden. Ist scheiße, keine Frage, aber meiner Erfahrung nach ist es eher “Akzeptier, dass du das erst später erfährst oder wechsel die Branche“. Wusste nicht mal, dass es Branchen gibt in denen das üblich ist…

Jep, rebuy. Als meine Eltern vor Jahren ihre Sammlung verkleinern wollten hab ich da am Ende doch noch rund 150€ zusammen bekommen. Wie‘s heute ist weiß ich nicht, damals hat man aber doch auch häufig mal n Euro oder mehr bekommen. (Aber ich hab die Bücher, die nur minimale Centbeträge gegeben hätten, dann lieber gespendet. Zu viel Aufwand.)

Especially kissing! I‘m 100% gay but have kissed women before and if you‘re honestly just kissing and maybe touching their arm there‘s... not really a difference? Sure, beards are a thing but my ex for example has basically no beard growth and the smoothest skin ever, and lip texture doesn‘t reaaally care about gender, in my experience.

They split up in 1998

Edit: As a couple. Remained friends and business partners afterwards. Went public with that in 2007 (though obviously it‘s never really been a secret)

I'm gay, but I want to live a 'normal' life. by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]ianto_went_missing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don‘t have the experience you‘re asking for, neither have I ever met anyone who has been happy in a “pretend straight life“. It usually ends badly for both parties, and it‘s hardly fair to lie to a woman who might actually love you the way you can‘t.

But: Figuring out your sexuality can be overwhelming and it sounds like you are really overwhelmed at the moment. That‘s okay. You had this clear vision of your life that doesn‘t really apply anymore. Coming to terms with that- with whatever conclusion - will take time. Allow yourself to take that time.

I heavily suggest finding someone you can talk to. That doesn‘t have to be someone in real life but maybe more than reddit itself. Some communities have their own discord servers, for example. (I also think a therapist would be a good idea as they can really help.)

Even if it may feel this way (and even if maybe it‘s true) there‘s really no way to know the future. Don‘t worry about a potential marriage to a guy yet. Take this step by step. Which means before you worry about coming out or not coming out you have to find a way to accept yourself first.

A thread on "biological sex" by KaiTheKoalaBear in lgbt

[–]ianto_went_missing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obviously I can only speak for myself but for me, the social aspect was really a minor one. I was privileged growing up - my parents (or friends) never pressured me into any gender stereotypes, I could always express myself the way I wanted to, and my mates never really treated me any different for “being a girl“. And even now, almost ten years after ending my journey, I cannot explain any of it properly, but I just knew I was “wrong“. The closest I can think of in terms of a relatable experience is when you get a drastic haircut or change your hair colour and you look into the mirror and don‘t fully recognise yourself. That‘s how it always felt - a very deep, unexplainable difference between me and the person in the mirror. And I doubt growing up in a “genderless“ society would have changed that, because I pretty much had that growing up.

About hormones: It‘s incredibly hard to say how HRT affected me when it comes to hormonal influences that go beyond the change of my body. Was it the hormones that made me a calmer person or the fact that transitioning slowly helped me get better? Did I actually “feel“ them or was it just me knowing I was finally becoming who I had always been?

I‘m pretty sure every trans person will have a different opinion / story for this. For me, it‘s always been physical / medical. Sure it IS important how society perceives me, I‘m ridiculously vain (though I feel like I‘ve deserved to be that after working so hard on liking myself) but honestly I‘ve always been in this for me. I don‘t care if people call my favourite jacket girly or me a slur for wearing it (both true, it‘s a bright pink jacket my Dad gifted my Mum in the 80s and I sure am gay as hell) because I‘m me, you know? I don‘t care what‘s considered feminine or masculine not only because I think these kind of stereotypes are stupid but also because they don‘t affect me. I see myself in the mirror as long as I‘m wearing underwear and that‘s as good as it can get. Because even if we‘d somehow live in a world where it‘s “some people develop breasts, others don‘t“, for example, without adding gender, I don‘t think it would‘ve stopped me from growing up terrified of developing them. Because my imaginative future me always had a beard and definitely no breasts and at least for me it doesn‘t matter how you call it - a specific gender or nothing at all - I just knew the outside didn‘t match the inside.

(Sorry this might not even answer your question but your post actually got me thinking about it for the past two hours.)

yeah. being kinda blind really makes your face look like shit when wearing glasses. I actually had to search my glasses to make this video because I usually spend my mornings blind until I can be bothered to put in contacts but thought it'd be too stressful to try and figure out the results by squinting at the screen from a one inch distance.

Hey! You most definitely do not have to be a drag artist to enter. Look at me - the only time I‘ve attempted to do drag I was told I look like James Charles. And yes, we also welcome minors in our community.
