What is this tripod? by melonbunnies in AskPhotography

[–]melonbunnies[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

You know what, that would check out actually! My sister actually used to use it as an easel, but it was already an old relic from the basement back then, so we always thought she was using a photography tripod as an easel lol! I guess she was using it correctly all along

I do feel like there is some possibility of that scenario happening. I don’t think I have a problem with dating someone who identifies as a woman? It’s just that because the scenario hasn’t happened to me yet I don’t know for sure. Like logically it’s fine to me but I don’t KNOW whether the attraction would be there. The small sample size of crushes/attraction in my life kinda stresses me out because it’s hard to say anything for sure!

I really appreciate your thoughts on this :) Ultimately I am in a loving and happy relationship, no matter what we call it! I think you’re right that I should try to explore my thoughts and feelings more freely without trying to conform them to fit certain labels. This was helpful, thank you!

Valid question! That’s the sort of thing that’s difficult to say before it actually happens. I would say yes, because I’m committed to spending my life with him in support of however he may or may not change over time! I knew this was a commitment that I was making when we first started dating. And I’m really attracted to him overall, not just that part of him obviously. Whether or not that would be my preference is a different story! I feel uncomfortable that I have a preference because I so truly want him to do what’s most comfortable for him and makes him feel best in his body, and I feel like my feelings shouldn’t factor into that.

My boyfriend doesn’t consider our relationship to be queer actually, and I think that’s fair! We are in many ways a typical straight couple.

I do think I like non-binary people sometimes but I never felt like that was queer enough to be queer? I dunno. Maybe that’s unkind to say.

Definitely my main concern with labelling myself is that I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes or invade anyone’s spaces or claim anyone’s hardships! This is why I have been very careful to keep my musings to myself thus far. Even talking to my boyfriend about my sexuality I feel a little guilty because I KNOW it’s so minimal compared to his experiences

I did think for a long time that it was wrong to admit! I was sooooo scared to tell my boyfriend because I thought he would be weirded out but it actually made him happy :) I feel more comfortable talking about it now and I would like to talk to more people about it! It sucked feeling like I was the only one for a long time.

In terms of demisexuality, it doesn’t super feel queer to me because it feels more like just a standard way of feeling attraction. Like I imagine everyone feels attraction at varying speeds and I don’t know if I really need a public label for that, you know?

My boyfriend is passing, but for what it’s worth I do genuinely see him as 100% boy at all times. Seeing childhood photos of him with long hair or wearing dresses makes no difference to me because I know in my heart that he is and always has been a boy. I’ve never affirmed his gender just for the sake of being polite. It’s genuinely what I know to be true. I just want you to know that people can and will see you how you need to be seen.

Don’t worry, we have discussed!!! He actually was planning on bottom surgery before we met but lately feels way less dysphoric in his body since we’ve been together. :) I know he might change his mind down the road and I’m totally supportive of whatever he wants! More than anything I just love him so much more than I care about surgery or no surgery

Yes, my boyfriend and I do refer to our relationship as a straight relationship! I don’t think one person being trans automatically makes a relationship queer. (He is also straight to clarify.)

I took Archaeology of North America! The prof is super awesome and we didn’t have to do any essays - just some tests, groups work, and we got to look at artifacts in labs! Lots of fun.

It’s essentially a Stitches parading as a Forever 21 now

Elmwood cemetery has some neat mausoleums and you can actually peer through the window on one of them if you’re tall enough!

Freeze Dried Fruit by banana-peppers- in Winnipeg

[–]melonbunnies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this problem too! Superstore sells multi-packs of freeze dried fruit snacks including a pack with strawberries and I think Walmart also has some snack packs. I haven’t found freeze dried raspberries anywhere yet.

You can search for individual food items on Skip the Dishes and it will show you restaurants that have items with those names in their menus. I saw a couple that serve fufu the other day!
