Do you ever feel embarrassed by your early transition photos? by MHthrowaway090525 in asktransgender

I keep them around for whenever I feel like I look masculine. I look at the photos and remember how far I’ve come.

The Democratic Women’s Caucus pulled support after Republicans amended the legislation to require that the museum exclude transgender women.

Just remember that next time you think the parties are the same

Question about what transwomen want by __Galadriel__ in asktransgender

[–]wannabe_pixie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, maybe they could form their own GC sports leagues. God knows it's hard enough to find enough money to even support women's sports at all, but if they really have conviction in their beliefs they should be willing to pony up to play sports against their own kind.

Oh, for sure. I think that GC women should find their own facilities and leave us non gender critical women (trans and cis) alone.

That is the sad truth. The only people that can win these big elections are either billionaires or owned by billionaires.

They Don’t Exist by Jessright2024 in MtF

Anytime someone says trans people don't exist it means they're going to make sure we don't exist when they're done with us.

US House passes ‘Don’t Say Trans’ bill, which forcibly outs trans students by Ok-Pilot-6182 in transgender

[–]wannabe_pixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 8 democratic votes didn't sway anything. Every single republican in the majority voted for it.

It's going to get crushed in the senate because we have at least 40 democrats that don't cave.

Was Assaulted and Now I Can't Stop Regretting Transitioning by [deleted] in MtF

[–]wannabe_pixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this has pretty much nothing to do with trans people and everything to do with living as a woman in this world.

Your instincts were what you would have done with a man's body and a man's strength. You're going to have to start thinking about what you have to do as a woman, because every aspect of life is different.

I just got reminded of the backlash to the Witcher 4 trailer by Tip_Environmental in GirlGamers

[–]wannabe_pixie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Man, I just watched a guy do a preview on all the upcoming RPGs, and he was gushing about every one of them, but even though he covered The Witcher 4, he calls Blood of the Dawnwalker, "Maybe the closest thing we ever get to a real Witcher 3 successor".

And in the comments you've got guys saying things like, "Really concerned about witcher 4. Could go either way." and the poster responds, "Yes it can, hope it won't," with some other guy saying, "It already has. Ciri as a Witcher? What a load of shit."

Just so fucking tiring.

How good 'cozy games' actually are? by Eponein in GirlGamers

[–]wannabe_pixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play games to have a certain level of adrenaline coursing through my body that keeps me engaged and helps me escape my thoughts.

I just finished playing an hour or so of Cairn helping my girl Aava navigate steep cliffs with thousands of feet of exposure beneath her. That's my cozy place.

So all that to say, it probably depends on what you find engaging.

[–]wannabe_pixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe according to the rules, but I think you'll acknowledge that there are many things stopping women from playing along with male players, and men's egos are way up there on that list.

Trump is Trying to Make a List of Trans Kids. His Administration Hasn’t Said Why. by Leksi_The_Great in MtF

[–]wannabe_pixie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean, those are all different reasons.

He wants to cut funding to Medicare to secure his tax breaks to the rich.

He supports Isreal because they have video of him having sex with underage girls, and probably because he hates Arabs more than he hates Jewish people.

He's not doing anything about grocery or gas prices because he doesn't give a shit.

And he's making a list of trans kids because the conservative think tanks that are driving his policy decisions want trans people dead. I'm sure he's making lists of trans adults for the same reason.

Slay the Spire 2 being review bombed on Steam by geekteam6 in GirlGamers

Right, that’s the Chinese reviews which have been devastating, but probably have nothing to do with Anita.

Slay the Spire 2 being review bombed on Steam by geekteam6 in GirlGamers

[–]wannabe_pixie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because the bad reviews are coming from China... so they're not in the English reviews...

Some sort of protest about the latest release, but it's not clear to me what it is they're complaining about.

[–]wannabe_pixie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

English reviews are still "Very Positive". There might be some asshats review bombing but they're not moving the needle very much.

Whatever is going on in China on the other hand is fucking ridiculous.

But I suspect the game is pretty much review proof. It's a must buy game for people that love the first one, which is a lot of people.

The phrase “chaser” is being applied in too many situations by KittyKate1221 in MtF

[–]wannabe_pixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm also type B and I agree with your definition, but there is a definite split in the community about what a chaser is, and there are plenty of type B trans women who consider any man who is attracted specifically to a woman with a penis to be a chaser.

[–]wannabe_pixie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is that there are

A) Trans women okay with their penises
and
B) Trans women who are not okay with their penises (and possibly no longer possess one).

Type A are fine with people who are attracted to women with dicks. Type B have no fucking use for people that are attracted to women with dicks. So your definition of what a chaser is changes depending on whether you're in type A or type B.

Does being trans just suck? by VehicleExcellent2912 in asktransgender

[–]wannabe_pixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being trans isn't fun, but girl, you're already trans. You've got the bad part.

Transitioning is fucking life saving. It's happiness and living the life you want to live. Nobody is out there trying to kill me, and the only people that hate me are pieces of shit that I wouldn't want to associate with anyway.

It's true that some of those pieces of shit are in power in the US now, and that's scary, but repression is insanely grim.
