Defining women in relation to men, so progressive. How do they seriously miss their own irony?

She's a biological woman with DSD. For people who complain about the lack of fact-checkinf you dipshits sure don't bother with 30 seconds of googling.

It certainly isn't oppression, just a great annoyance when it happens time and again. Like how gingers are asked "does the carpet match the curtains?" constantly, it's personal, rude and invasive. It stems mostly from not often being around "races" different from you, I suppose. Like if I met an albino person I'd ask them how they deal with sunlight, if their vision is affected etc, and I'm sure they get these questions all the time, but it's not malicious.

Actually these kinds of discussions always remind me of a picture somewhere of an asian guy surrounded by small black kids pulling on thei corners of their eyes, they didn't have bad intents obviously but they're just curious about this person who looks different from them. There's also a black teacher in Japan who makes tiktoks about how his students ask if he's made of chocolate and he answers them nicely without getting offended because he knows it'snew to them, it's all adorable. This behavior goes both ways and ignorant black people would also be the ones asking asians if they can see properly or some dumb shit like that.

I used to find their annoyance with touching their hair petty, because in my country people (of the same sex) are up in your face all the time and may touch your hair as they compliment it, but I realized that cultural norms of course differ so they might perceive it differently.

Take this last example: A white woman with curly hair would face almost the same level of touchiness as they do, because white folks generally have straight hair so they're not used to it, but she'd have the right to be annoyed if it keeps happening constantly, especially without her consent AND by strangers. Has nothing to do with race, but add to it the layer of someone being a different color than you, one of two scenarios would play out : 1. They indeed would be seen with saucer eyes as some sort of "exotic" creature, treated as such and constantly be reminded of their differences 2. The admiration really would be innocently towards their hair and nothing else, but they would PERCEIVE it as a "microagression" due to being on the defensive. Who knows how often the second case is mistaken for the first.

What's up with Dr. Seuss?

I can't stand listening to all of it. Just what is her point exactly?

I'm hygienic and pay attention to my appearance and diction when I speak instead of not showering every day, wearing wrinkly clothes, and mumbling... I am more likely to be found with decorated nails than my wife, to have showered more recently than my wife, to have applied lotion and sunscreen than her, have coordinated clothes on, et cetera. She thinks of herself as a feminine woman, but she's been jealous of how I can pull it off since I came out... the difference is because I've been a woman longer, I was just stuck in a male body thinking I was a typical depressed man. I've paid more attention to the women in my life because I had to, she expects it to come naturally for her, but it's something we all have to have role models for and work towards.

How do you type this and not realize how regressive it is? You're a woman because you paint your nails? Because you don't wear wrinkly clothes?

Genuinely curious, what do you think about Jazz Jennings? Or Blaire White?

stoptheearth · 2024-07-06T13:54:44+00:00

Well yeah but I was talking about her facial features

stoptheearth · 2024-07-05T17:45:33+00:00

I understand your point, it just bothers me that friendly fire is needed to make other women realize this. But it also seems efficient since they end up offended when they're told they look trans lol

The comments here are disappointing. It's been a thing for YEARS for straight women to admit they watch lesbian porn because it focuses on female pleasure and real orgasms rather than shitty acting and gymnastic shots of their insides.

Tell me you're sarcastic

"Well most people under 40 don't trust the TV news" if that were true the internet experience would be much more pleasant than it is, believe me. Just look at all the reddiors and tiktok users who believe any clickbait headline (without actually clicking) and go straight to comment wars. Perceptions of innocent people are ruined, misinformation spreads just as easily as before if not more. Nothing's changed. Young people are as gullible as facebook boomers.

Trivial example to show how much people can't be arsed to check the validity of information themselves: I play an online dating sim for girls where the credits are accessible in one click. Dissatisfied with the writing of some scenes, people started claiming that it's because it was a full-male team in charge of the writing, despite the credits clearly showing that there was only one man while the rest are women. One click, and they can't bother to double check the info. People would rather take everything at face value than do a 2 minutes google search, even with all the fact-checking sites available now.

I believe one of the most popular posts on r/TumblrInAction when it was alive was about healthy people who felt they were "supposed" to have a disability and amputated themselves. This isn't a new thing

"for mtfs i want to say: - knee high socks - short skirt - scoop neckline even tho it’s winter - choker bonus points if there’s a heart" ...Fucking hell. Not gonna say there aren't girls who dress like this, but why is this style especially popular in those circles? It's like an anime fetish, it should stay in fucking anime. It's like they use it as a reference for how girls are "supposed" to dress and act- oh.

Lol post was removed as I was about to comment. I'm surprised it even got 3k upvotes with the "part of me feels gross" comment

stoptheearth · 2023-09-18T11:19:51+00:00

Honestly I would prefer this somehow. It will be followed by waves of "we fucking told you so" and I'd love to see how they defend themselves then.

stoptheearth · 2023-09-09T16:23:51+00:00

I never understood that. Isn't it the same as non-binary?

stoptheearth · 2023-03-14T11:23:34+00:00

Hey man just as there are good and bad Christians dont lump us all with the extremists. You don't see us call all americans for example school shooters.
