Girlboy with a he/him pin on one sleeve and a she/her pin on the other. Two people sitting on either side of her aggressively correcting each other on his pronouns

*her pronouns

*his pronouns

could the ultimate gay dad joke be “you are what you do, so I guess I’m your dad lol”

fullmetalfisting:

I love this website because one time someone told my boyfriend to kill himself but used she/her pronouns and came back like two minutes later apologizing profusely for misgendering him but also reaffirming their original message that he should kill himself

Male Captions

I started a sideblog for a kind of cursed project that amuses me. Basically, it’s intentionally bad forced masculinization captions in the style of unintentionally bad forced feminization captions, with what I think are some very good choices of pop culture characters. Check it out if that sounds appealing to you.

im real life bisexual but anime gay. Totally indifferent towards anime girls

those things aren’t women. They’re actually so—okay I think they manage to be APPEALING rather than GENDERED? Related to this, loads of boys and young men are perfectly comfortable in a basically non-transgressive way (on VRChat) presenting themselves as anime girls, they’re bedecking themselves with “anime girl” the same way they would with fancy shoes or fancy motorcycles or fancy cars. Like, an anime girl is desirable without being or conferring gender, in a way that feminine ACCESSORIES are not. Anime girl avatar people with drip are always cishet boys or men, anime girl avatar people with actual feminine accessories boys are taught not to touch or hold are generally gay or trans. Like, a handbag has legit got more femme/female gender to it than a whole ass anime girl intrinsically has.

An anime girl is like Air Jordans.

An important distinction is between two different ways of being a girl. The first is that of a true and proper girl. This girl has a real, true self. True girls believe in real magic. True girls don’t want the world to end. They know about science fiction and adventure and real things – like stars – that happen far away in the real world. They don’t believe in silly made-up things like fairies and spells. True girls don’t want to live in a world that’s all made up and pretend. True girls want to help people, and be friends with people, and try to do good in the world, and know the real facts about things.

There is another way of being a girl. That is the wrong way. It is like the way of the fairy. If you are the fairy, you don’t really have any self. You just live in the world of magic – the world of whimsy, of romance, and of fawning and softness. Sometimes, if you live in the world of the fairy for long, you will start to believe in fairy tales, too. When that happens, you will never be a proper girl.

So anyway, my sense now (since Covid went “long” in my brain, destroyed my personality, and left me to form a new one, from perspective of which I realized the old one had been well-“masked” autistic) is that autism is a matter of the personality constructing itself such that it has no role for pre-rational, pre-human “animal instinct”, and thus must do everything (including further self-construction) by conscious logic alone

(Like, I don’t know how social species without language would organize themselves if they couldn’t parse each others’ feelings directly, and we come from a long line of such species)

This also means that autism and sexuality (the old personality was heterosexual, this one’s bi) aren’t set at birth (and thus conceivably might be externally influencable), but are set prerationally and aren’t consciously (or possibly at all) changeable within an established personality

Also another insight I’ve picked up is the reason for all the transbians and manly-men late-life transitioners and yaoi fujoshi turned trans men is it’s absolutely a Kinsey 0 thing, it’s not so much autogyne/androphilia as a fetish as you only see value in the opposite from your birth sex yet you want to see value in yourself

Since I’ve been bi I’ve absolutely had “gender euphoria” about inhabiting a male body like I didn’t before, and it makes me realize this is what I wanted identifying as a girl (a lesbian, even!) in adolescence in the 90s. If there was some treatment available that made you bi honestly I’d recommend that over gender transition but there isn’t.

So in retrospect I guess we can flag “What was up with Princess Maker, why were all those 90s nerds obsessed with a game where you control a girl as she develops into a woman?” as resolved

It’s a question a woman asked a man, in a dream, and the man did not answer

…huh

Long hair, shaved legs, painted nails, collected but didn’t really use makeup, sometimes I wore my first (renn faire) girlfriend’s skirt or let her faire friends do me up in bodice and dress and makeup, generally a few more notches more femme than now.

Identified as lesbian but tried bihacking myself, a lot more subby and less confident as a sexual and a general being; appreciated femaleness as an idiom in which my delicacy and elegance and vulnerability counted as virtues.
