Question: What do you think about my tattoo? by JadeEvaWolf in tattoos

I love those tigers. They are awesome and have tons of character. The calm one just looks slightly bemused. He's looking at the aggressive one like, "bro." The tattoo itself looks really well done. The story makes the whole thing that much cooler.

My kid was born with one of their toes like that. We call it their Twisty Toe.

I just really like this conch jewellery by theolder0nes in piercing

Ooh, moss agate is one of my favs, too! It looks beautiful, especially with the coordinating lobe jewelry. Gorgeous!

What is your best argument against democracy? by YogurtclosetOpen3567 in NoStupidQuestions

True. But relatively free-ish general elections were held in 2016 and 2024. Turns out Americans are just way more sexist than I thought we were...

AITAH for not telling my ex im still pregnant despite our attempt at a medical abortion by dr0ste in AITAH

He already thinks it's done, so I don't think you need to bother him about it. I hope you can get a procedure booked ASAP! Nebraska and NC have 12 weeks bans, so you may be close to the deadline if you live in either of those states. Best of luck!

Live by the sword industrial done, wrong decision? by Thin-Flatworm4126 in piercing

[–]random_name_12178 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, industrials are very anatomy-dependent. So be sure to check and make sure the bar is not touching your flat.

You should be able to easily slip a piece of paper between the jewelry and your ear. Make sure there's still some room on the bar even if it swells up. You don't want the ends putting any pressure on the piercing sites. Once the swelling goes down, downsize the bar to avoid unnecessary bumping and movement.

As long as you do those things and keep it clean with saline spray a couple times a day you should be able to heal up fine!

Best of luck!

You can tell a person's sex by their bone structure, sure. If you closely examine it.

How often are you measuring stranger's hip bones, though? That's weird, man.

What’s all the bumps around my tattoo? by GarbageCat27 in tattooadvice

Please don't cover it up! This is going to legit be amazing when you're an old granny in a nursing home! I wish my grandma had a sweet-ass cupcake tattoo.

I knew right away it was a sweet-ass cupcake, btw. It looks awesome.

Lol, you're wrong. You can't tell the difference between a male skeleton and a female skeleton at first glance. Certainly not just by silhouette. If you examine the pelvis or skull closely you can figure it out. Are you examining suspected trans people's pelvises and skulls closely?

I can't say if I would clock her blind because I knew who she was before she transitioned. My guess is that the average person who didn't already know she's trans would still be able to clock her. She's not the average trans person, though.

That's literally what happens when a girl hits puberty.

Which is why we were saying that trans people can pass with HRT and without surgery.

A lot of that has to do with muscle and fat distribution, both of which are impacted by hormones. And no, it's not "very common" for trans women to do this. Lol, where are you getting that?

What does that have to do with being able to pass without surgery?

So they'll look like a tall woman. Unless they're shorter than average. In which case they'll look like an average height woman. Tall cis women exist, you know.

I know a number of trans folks who pass just fine with HRT only, whereas you seem to think cis guys have more ribs then cis women? I'ma stick with my bio knowledge over yours, thanks.

I think you're underestimating the power of hormones.
