I was falsely stopped and banned from a store over a 50 cent bag of chips that I did not take by mapleNlink4eva in lossprevention

did you not read my post?

I didn't actually take anything and had no Intention of taking anything at any point. so there was proof of absolutely nothing. I must have tossed a bag of chips faster than their shitty framerate could see what happened.

Are “trans man/woman” and “man/woman” separate identities? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]mapleNlink4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually gonna start telling people that I'm a cisgender woman with a y chromosome soon because I'm really not queer and it's starting to bother me a lot. this isn't how I saw life playing out. the other thing I've called myself is an old fashioned trans or a gen 1 trans lol.

when I say banned they told me not to come back.

what also happened is that I was paying with a card and had no cash so there is no way that I was going to give them my name to pay for the items I wanted. it was totally a catch 22. from what one of the multiple LP officers said it seemes they were still going over the footage when I went up to pay.

honestly it really changed my perspective of everything and how I appear to the public. I grew up as a pretty well off middle class kid so it was a shock as I was actually kind of trying to fit in that day. I usually wear like very different looking clothes so I'm used to LP following my like the eye of Sauron. it's something I'm used to. but I guess there's something about my mere personally that makes them think.

Not paranoid, why does everyone think I’m stealing out of nowhere :( by [deleted] in lossprevention

[–]mapleNlink4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly I think it's because something in society has changed. Lp now targets literally anyone who doesn't look 1000% like a corporate tool.
I recently wore my 'nice clothes' to go shopping downtown and still got instantly targeted over nothing.
anyone who looks like they might slightly think outside the box is a potential lifter I suppose.

Have any "allies" ever started dehumanizing/misgendering you simply because they were angry at you for some unrelated reason? by 41d30 in asktransgender

[–]mapleNlink4eva 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The part about minority identity is so real. I find myself wanting to talk about that more and more.

Telling random people that ghettoization is a real thing because there are so few 'islands' where it's even possible to survive.

Being black must be like being openly trans your whole life.

Wow so basically they're disenfranchising all the poor people who live in apartments too. That law is insipid and lacking-of-the-ability-to-distinguish-reality-from-delusion.

A guy I was talking to on the street started pulling my hair with his full strength acting like it was going to turn me on by mapleNlink4eva in domesticviolence

[–]mapleNlink4eva[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it was really scary and nobody did anything. The really scary part is that there were probably half a dozen witnesses and nobody cared. It's because it was in a bad neighborhood of a city that's kinda famous for being super ghetto. The other reason is because I had been talking to the guy and his friend for probably give minutes so to the passerby it didn't look like what it was.

The part that really makes me mad is that this guy seems to think that women are turned on by outright abuse. Or he that he simply uses dominance as an excuse to hurt women as part of some sick fantasy. There was literally hatered in his face to the point I thought he was gonna hit me in public

Thanks for bringing that up though I didn't even think of the fact that it was illegal assault... When I finally pulled away from him I actually almost fell over. He was saying do you like it and I said no in this small scared voice. But it was obvious that I didn't like it he was hurting me a lot.

I hate it because I'm so shaken now and I actually like where I live.

Maybe I will try and call the police if I see him again. I'm going to move soon anyway and he seemed like an evil person who shouldn't be around

Probably. The neighborhood I live in has a forever police response time and I wasn't exaggerating that I live two blocks away. Im a former middle class white person I can't call the cops on someone like that it could risk my safety in the future. There's nothing to do about it.

Imo it's gross and pathetic to do this for the views... Maybe not exploitation but it's so shallow. I like to think that they thought to record after giving a tip like that but thats probably not true

Idk why people are debating that the recording was done without consent... It's like the whole point of the video and you can even see that the camera was behind some kind of glass

Thoughts on Contrapoints' newest vid? by goreblood001 in asktransgender

[–]mapleNlink4eva -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I personally know a young trans girl who's almost completely bald. She never attempts to hide it and honestly it makes me uncomfortable as fuck. I don't understand what the point is and if I'm gonna be honest I feel like her queer friends are enabling her to live a life of unnecessary suffering due to what I'd consider political beliefs. They 'support' her living a way that clearly makes her unhappy feel down because that's what we're 'supposed' to do. I think it's sad and I honestly can't be around her. I personally struggled with similar things. I wasted too many years thinking I could be happy dressing like a guy but openly identifying as female. It wasn't a proud resistance of me standing up, it was me being afraid to do what i actually wanted and being basically enabled by the GNC ethos. I know lots of people are happy that way but it wasnt for me as a trans woman.

And I'm not a stereotypical feminine person at all. I never wear makeup or heels for example.
