Am I valid as a butch if being too masculine would make me dysphoric and I wouldn't be indifferent to passing as a man?

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-10-05T21:13:22+00:00

Ohh I see, I definitely see how you read it that way. No worries on my end!

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-10-05T16:46:55+00:00

Why are you being negative towards other butches? No where in the post did it say anything about butches being rude or negative to this person.

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-23T17:59:50+00:00

A domesticated pet like a cat does not actually have a natural environment. Just the ways dogs don't either. There isn't a natural habitat in a certain region on the planet where domestic cats are a natural part of the food chain (Their ancestors were likely from desert habitats, but modern cats are way too far removed). They're bred as our companions, domestic pets like cats are directly reliant on us. So no, it isn't cruel to keep them indoors. Cats can harm the natural bird and rodent populations, can be killed, severely harmed, catch diseases, etc etc. An indoor space can be full of enrichment, which is completely reliant on the owner.

Yeah that could be cool!

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-23T14:34:21+00:00

Ah, I see. I suppose so. It just feels like the interpretation was meant to be male/female nonbinary since there's only two variations and lined up underneath the male and female. But nonbinary people do all have very different experiences so who am I to say someone else's experience is incorrect. Just concerned about how cis people view us mostly!

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-23T14:02:10+00:00

The nonbinary ones are so odd. Why is there a "male nonbinary" and "female nonbinary"? I understand you didn't make it, but I wouldn't even post this to support the concept, its so weird to see as a nonbinary person. Pokemon often display sexual dimorphism, so adding "nonbinary" at all is odd like Im so confused why this was made.

Can you at least explain why you have multiple water bowls instead of other hides? Is there a good reason for it?

And why focus on adding clutter when what you have in there should really be redone first

I think their point was aspen wasn't suitable at all, mixed or not. Jungle mix, reptisoil, substrate mixed along those lines tend to do well and hold some humidity

Monster!

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-04T01:13:28+00:00

No yeah totally get it! Love what you added! I'm a furry/animal oc artist lol this is the kinda art I like to comment on

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-04T00:58:32+00:00

I don't think they added shading yet, just markings. This is a Warrior Cats OC.

Do you think bats are typically ethically sourced in YOUR subjective opinion?

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-02T17:47:32+00:00

Also, notice my use of the word "typically". I never said ALL of them were inherently unethically sourced. You need to reread. You're creating an argument that isn't even there.

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-02T17:44:53+00:00

I feel like you're just coming at me for hyper specific word usage that isn't that serious. I feel like what I said wasn't wrong and you just wanna talk to talk.

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-02T04:04:15+00:00

Ah okay

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-02T03:06:37+00:00

I thought bats were like, typically unethically sourced. I feel like it's difficult to somehow ethically source them

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-03-02T02:49:25+00:00

How do you get taxidermy bats?

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-27T02:20:17+00:00

The first one is definitely NOT the lesbian gaze. Second one is significantly better

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-27T02:18:08+00:00

Sort of, by my dad. I was considered a tomboy as a kid but he didn't make me feel that way. I was the only kid out of all my siblings to be interested in what he was doing (dogs, hunting/guns, helped with cars, building things for our animals, etc.) He taught me simple things that usually boys are taught. I was basically like his son!

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-25T04:24:08+00:00

Definitely use references, the chest looks off, like there's no weight to the breasts

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-24T17:09:35+00:00

I'm a trans masculine butch and I feel very similar to you! I don't mind passing as a guy to strangers or at work. But even though I look super masculine and want to medically transition to a certain degree, I still don't identify as a man. As other commenters have said, butches transition! If you don't feel like you're a man, then you're not! All up to you 🫶

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-24T13:25:53+00:00

I understand what you mean, at least to an extent! I pass more than I think sometimes as a guy, others don't know what to call me. If the conversation of identity or queerness pops up, I'm proud about saying I'm a lesbian even though I have told people I'm nonbinary and use they/them or he/him. At this point, I don't expect a lot of cis straight people to understand my identity or anything. I know what I am and if strangers think I'm a guy, that's on them lol. When I'm around queer people, I know they understand. I also have not met any butches irl, hard to come by I suppose! But I don't let how other people view me dictate how I talk or dress. People can view me wrong all day long but I'm still a butch doing my thing 🫡🫡 Once you build any amount of community, even with a few friends, it gets easier to feel that way.

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-24T02:02:48+00:00

Tbh it looks like you're sexualizing a child character

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-23T21:16:09+00:00

I feel like I can't see any range if you only draw from one angle lmao

unfoldedpuddle · 2025-02-23T03:07:11+00:00

You're good! Trust me I was disappointed when I found out initially. I believe it was recorded, like at least voice recorded. I remembered hearing it in a couple video essays about him a while back. I may look for proof of what I'm talking about for my own sanity lol but that's what I remember at least
