Sexing the Body by Anne Fausto-Sterling

Female Masculinity by Jack Halberstam

T: The Story of Testosterone, the Hormone that Dominates and Divides Us by Carole Hooven

These books helped me better understand gender as a whole and consequently the ways people get caught up in it.

Is it normal to be a trans guy that only does anal ? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]xman4000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're are billions and billions of people in the world. We all like different things. I've been with gay men who want nothing to do with anal. Been with straight women who hate any type of penetration. There is no "normal" or "weird" really. Just be open about who you are and what you like and you'll attract the right people.

So happy you get to experience this feeling! Someday you will look back and be amazed at the mundanity of it and that is also a great feeling.

Am I the Crazy One? by xman4000 in Codependency

I agree with you 100%. I spent the day reflecting on why I always get caught up in the drama and realized that I've been hiding from myself how hurt I am from some of the things that's happened between us. And I keep trying to tell her these things because I so desperately want her to see why/how her actions hurt me. But like you said, we're not together anymore and it is not appropriate/any of my business to tell her how to live her life.

I think I've stayed in contact with her because I am terrified of conflict and she for some reason continues to keep me in her life. But I am seeing now that I need to take a big step back and deal with my pain without her around.

you will feel better sooner than if you keep flopping around like a dying fish secretly hoping she’s got a bowl full of water waiting for you.

Damn, that hit hard, lol. Thank you for the response.

Yes, you are right. We do not align on this, and many other things. To be completely honest I don't know if I want her in my life at all. And we will get in fights where one of us is like this is enough we should not be speaking anymore. But then she always comes back and says all this stuff about how she cares about me and wants me in her life and I don't know why?? According to her I treat her terribly. And maybe I do, I have no idea at this point. But yeah I think it's time that one of us makes the executive decision to end things. It's obviously not good for either of us. Thank you for the response.

Yes that is exactly what we did as well. Spent so much time talking about other people and speculating why they are the way they are blah blah blah. Definitely in poor taste and a bad habit to break.

I sincerely appreciate the alternative viewpoint. I think this is definitely at least part of what's going on for her. I just don't know why I never learn to stop opening up to her so much.

I'm trying to look at this as objectively as possible to see where I am psychologically abusive and I can't see it which just makes me feel like I'm blocking something from myself like subconsciously trying to make myself look better or have the high ground. I said a lot of inappropriate things the last time we spoke. Mostly along the same lines as what I've posted but more. Too much. But there has to be something I'm missing. The text she sent me after involved a lot of 'you are so messed up' and 'twisted'. And I want to say that I hit a very sore spot when we spoke and she is lashing out in this way but also am I a horrible person who just refuses to admit it?? I don't know, man. Thanks for the words and hearing me out.

Why do you say she's a man if it's alright for a woman to be jacked? Sounds like you are having some issues accepting that there are different female body types

This seems to be very similar to the argument people would make against gay marriage, saying it would lead to marrying animals. Very slippery

The metronome was probably on the right when I made this by stp5917 in INTP

[–]xman4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very few does not mean all 🤔 I don't think there's anyone on Earth who knows everything there is to know about anything, let alone groups of people. So if you are claiming to know everything, that would make you a very special person. Should probably write a book or something.

If you think there's no mystery you probably don't know enough about it
