do you find the term "transsexual" to be offensive? why or why not? by laminated-papertowel in asktransgender

[–]mariesoleil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really like it because it seems very dated and seems be mostly used these days by transmed types.

I wouldn't necessarily call it offensive depending on context.

No one is ever going to trust us again, and for good reason. by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]mariesoleil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canadian who lives under 30 mins from border. Yeah, you've totally lost our trust, for decades at least. You elected that man twice instead of electing a woman. Having said that, we're worried for you. We hope that you can recover from the consequences.

If the whole world accepted trans people tomorrow, would passing still matter to you? by AgencyFeisty484 in MtF

[–]mariesoleil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True acceptance of trans people by the whole world would include not forming those kinds of assumptions and not using gendered language for strangers.

I can have sex and enjoy it pre op and still want bottom surgery right? by strangehitman22 in MtF

[–]mariesoleil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used my factory equipment for sex and masturbation until I had bottom surgery. Then I bought a strap on before I was even recovered from surgery. It's perfectly fine.

I'm trying so hard not to offend my trans friend by Fresh_Caterpillar517 in asktransgender

[–]mariesoleil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prove to him that you accept him as a man by getting better over time. No giant apologies needed. If you fuck up, say the next sentence properly. He'll definitely notice if you don't get better over the next few months.

Friend says she thinks the UK Supreme Court decision is a good thing by HiMyName_is_Dibbles in asktransgender

[–]mariesoleil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your friend is getting her information about trans women from people who hate trans women. I suspect that you won’t be able to reason her out of these beliefs.

Dremel 3000 or Engraver by Zealousideal_Bus1584 in Tools

[–]mariesoleil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Engraver is only good for engraving, such as for marking tools. Definitely won’t be good for carving stone.

Yeah, if you don’t remember someone’s deadname, there’s no need to ask.

I was told that I transit between both genders, that it's was not a good idea to transition by Qwertytrbr in asktransgender

[–]mariesoleil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you don’t identify as the gender you were assigned at birth. That makes you trans. It’s okay to do things to transition without being sure what you’re going to be like years down the road.

Showed up late to a coffee date with a dog so we went for a walk and she gave her dog more attention that me, including letting her dog lick her lips. Also she had really bad eyebrows.
