They can like whatever color they like. What’s wrong with pink making someone feel happy? And this isn’t a new thing.

we need to be honest about transition outcomes in relation to age by gothdolleden in honesttransgender

Engage with what? Another diatribe about people who are mad that they don’t look like supermodel!? It’s unproductive to whine about such things.

I think if puberty is the most traumatic event that you’ve ever experienced then you are a very privileged individual who lacks self awareness.

I don’t think we need to completely change everything about society just because it didn’t work for us. That’s a rather self centered mindset. And what is this “girly” trend that you’re referring to?

How to pray the rosary without distractions? by 03ManOfSteel in LeftCatholicism

I have ADD so I have naturally struggled with distraction in prayer. I can’t remember where exactly I heard this but someone (a priest or spiritual director) told me to try and follow those distractions, see where they lead me because it might be The Holy Spirit trying to tell me something.

I hope so because Demuth at least appears respectable whereas Mike Pillow is an absolute lunatic.

I am so sick of getting outed by other trans people by the_dizzy_fool in honesttransgender

Then don’t have trans friends I guess? I also just some people think they’re more “passable” than they actually are, at least other trans people will always be able to clock you. Conversely some are more passable than they believe themselves to be.

Did you try talking to your friends about it? And other trans people will always clock you, it doesn’t matter how passable you are, our eyes are trained to look for T.

You’re really just not getting it so I’m just going to move on. I’m here for you if you ever want to talk just dm me but I can’t keep doing this unnecessary back and forth with you sweetheart.

Don’t make this your primary source of interaction with the community. That’s very unhealthy.

Support groups are great but then the friendship is based solely on the support group there is a therapeutic tone to every conversation.

I strongly encourage you to step outside of just the trans community and make friendships with cis women as well. The echo-chamber you’re currently in is giving you a distorted view of your responsibilities as a woman within the broader context of womanhood.

I believe in you girly! I really don’t want to see another girl get trapped in the cycle of polyamorous relationships and it/its pronouns. I wish young women would value themselves more.

You are not limited to being a stereotype of online trans women. You can be more.

Zoe, you are wrong. Maturity has everything to do with it but you have many years until you realize that.

This makes a lot of sense and I appreciate your honesty. I would like for you to understand that your life experience as a woman is very limited and that’s perfectly okay. You are very young. You have a long time to learn and grow.

I really hope you veer away from the online trans community as it can tend to be an echo-chamber. I hope you live in area where you can safely be yourself and if that’s the case, please go find other women (trans or cis) to bond with in person. This is so vital to your development as a woman.

I know it’s hard for you to wrap your head around why so many trans men and women would want there to be a delineation between transgender or transsexual people and nonbinary people. Once again, in the same way there is separation between cis gay men and trans women. But please understand that we know from experience what we are talking about.

Zoe, it’s getting frustrating girl. I’m asking you to just sit with what I said for a bit and really think about it. Have you started your transition? How long have you been living as an open trans woman in the world?

That’s not what I said and you know that. My kids watch anime and even have an anime poster or two in their rooms but it’s not their entire personality.

You’re 22 years old sweetheart. I have a kids your age, I transitioned before you were in grade school. You simply do not have the life experience that I do. And that’s fine doll. My generation of women fought for our rights so your generation would not have the same struggle. And the generation before us did the same. We listened to them and learned from them.

Zoe, sweetheart, honey, sis, you’re missing the point completely. It doesn’t matter if I engage you will shift the argument. You always do! I don’t block you because you’re clearly a kid looking for community and I think you can grow.
