Bold to imply that people don’t mistake masc/femme couples for sisters/friends.

Do you have any recommendations for Canadians? I recently moved back to Canada from the US and now that I’m trying to actively avoid buying US products I feel like I’m figuring out my routine from scratch again 😅

Echoing the suggestions from others, don’t mention being trans or strangeness at being best (wo)man. You don’t need to explain yourself or anything, just talk about your friendship with the groom, the happiness you’ve seen in the couple, talk about things they share that make them such a strong couple, and if you wanna bring some humour you can always share a story that might (lightly!) embarrass the groom but that you can use to maybe highlight a positive quality he has or talk about how he’s grown since then.

Your role there is to give the guests some insight from a close friend into the couple’s relationship and how special it is, and to help the newlyweds feel the strength of their relationship as they solidify it with their marriage. You can talk about yourself if it genuinely comes up in what you want to say, of course, but only if it’s something that’s ultimately more about the couple.

Same issue, pomade was the fix for me (wavy hair), until then I always just lived with my hair looking like shit until it reached the perfect balance of “unwashed enough to have some weight and texture on it, clean or dry shampooed enough to not look super unwashed”.

I swear someone needs to teach young men about pomade, hair gel, mousse, just anything at all about how to style and texture your hair. I guarantee the guy in the left pic doesn’t look like that when he rolls out of bed, and if you want your hair to look like his, you’ll need similar amounts of styling and product.

Fucking garbage tier party, will stick up for literally nobody, only procedural norms. They won’t fight for trans, abortion, migrants, or any other rights, and God forbid you ask them to at least not vote for their opponent’s department nominations, that’d make things so awkward in Congress!

Fucking useless “opposition”

I’m willing to bet there are boys that roleplay as humans on mastodon. While we lack concrete data, humans are a fairly popular race in roleplaying games such as Dungeons and Dragons. If there are at least 10 young men on Mastodon that play Dungeons and Dragons, there’s a very good chance at least one role plays as a human character.

And now, in one post identifies as straight, maybe bi curious and doesn’t care about homophobia because as a bi person she doesn’t experience it, and then minutes later in another post is a lesbian who only likes men.

If she’s real, she’s got some incredibly powerful OCD and should maybe stop thinking so much about labels.

I’m mostly betting they’re a troll though.

Alright, I am officially done talking to you. Please don’t try and contact me again on another account.

@trans

Glad I could clear that up for you 🙂

Why do you think I care lmfao

I called you transphobic because you made a transphobic post and you got really defensive over it. It’s not that deep.

No I did read your post and replied in good faith. I’m sorry you didn’t like my response but I remain firm in my position that your argument doesn’t do enough work to distance itself from the clear transphobic origins of egg prime directive beliefs. People disagreeing with you isn’t bad faith.

My problem with defences of the “egg prime directive” is that it’s blatantly transphobic, and frames cisness as an inherently natural correct state while transness is something only a select few do. Encouraging someone to question their gender isn’t the same as denying them their gender identity, you can at the same time identify ways that someone seems to be having a similar experience as many trans people do before coming out while totally accepting that they are what they are right now.

I’ll be honest, it feels like a rebranding of the old homophobic defense of homosexuality, that it’s a small percentage of the population that suffers from this condition, so we should be nice to that select few, but oh no don’t you go implying morally upstanding people like me or my child could be one of those people.

It didn’t have a cutesy name associated with it, but it’s similar to why “born this way” was criticized when that framing was used for gay existence and why it played into a conservative framing of queerness: it’s a thing the degenerates do over there, but if they try to come into polite society and try to do things like talk to kids about being gay, it’s not because they’re trying to reach out to gay kids who might be in unsupportive environments where being gay is never presented to them as a thing they might apply to them, it’s because they’re sickos who are trying to groom kids into becoming like them.

In a time when countries are trying to make trans people legally not exist and forbid people from even being able to talk about them, I could not imagine a worse time to stop talking to people about transness and that people who don’t identify as trans might be trans. Our enemies will definitely happily tell anyone experiencing dissatisfaction with their AGAB that they’re definitely not trans just shy/not (wo)manly enough/needing conversion therapy/etc, so why let them control the conversation about who can or can’t be trans?

A move that has been months in the making but only now is getting announced? Has it been announced previously and I missed it or something? I get the motivation for the move, but this feels like the kind of decision that the users of the 196 should have gotten more of a chance to at least give feedback on what other instance 196 should be migrating to.

Counterpoint: vegans that are bad or lazy cooks deserve to have a former omnivore partner that becomes vegan for them so they not only convert another person, but get better meals as a bonus reward.

This happened with me and my wife. I was the omnivore that loves cooking, became vegan because my wife was and I was serious about being with her long term and figured adopting her diet would make sense, then slowly realized it was just morally the correct position. Now she gets to enjoy having a wife that fills her freezer with homemade vegan pierogi 😇

Did people still like Dawkins before this? I’m not an atheist or super interested in his particular field of biology, but every time I heard him get mentioned after his initial New Atheism stuff it was him being islamophobic/racist against Arabs, Iraq war apologia, being an apologist for sexual harassment, etc. He seemed pretty bad for a while.

Does anyone know of any futanari games where the LGBT agenda is forced down my throat? Asking for myself

He wouldn’t even need to do that. He could literally just make a third account (assuming his daughter is blocking the one where Elon pretends to be an actual child) and see all the posts he wants. This is truly Elon solving a problem only Elon has, by nuking a feature tons of folks use.
