Re: This thread is so gay
Hey people. It has been a while since I was active here, just been too busy. But I thought I would let you all know things are going well. Hormones are going great. If it wasn't for all of you there is no way I could have gotten on hormones as early as I did. I just wanted to say thanks again.

Re: The voxlunch stream shelter thread
You know, I used to think tough love and facing your problems head on was a good idea. I did that for the first 29 years or so of my life. It made me miserable. It caused me to obsess over my problems. It drove me to the edge of suicide. It did not make me stronger. It made me weaker. How do you kn...

Re: The voxlunch stream shelter thread
I think an error here may be your assumption that anyone can benefit from this "tough love" type approach, and that is simply not true. I benefited from it. Entire generations of people benefited from it. You know, I used to think tough love and facing your problems head on was a good ide...

Re: The voxlunch stream shelter thread
Ok then, can you please explain what you meant by this sentence: "The worst of what can happen is what your brain can create itself." What does that mean if not "the worst" is made up, fake, or us blowing the issue out of proportion? Because I am having a very difficult time figu...

Re: The voxlunch stream shelter thread
Many of us are now at the mercy of people who have demonstrated a complete lack of respect and empathy towards us, who have worked tirelessly to strip us of rights and protections. These are not fake problems that are only in our heads. Why do you begrudge people having a single place of safety wher...

So, I suppose since I made this thread with the topic and all that, I suppose I'll finally revisit it. Stephen more or less says how I feel about this election season: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m2valF3s84 People on every side have been more intent on hating each other rather than having a di...

Re: This thread is so gay
I think that sounds like a solid plan. I know that is not a conversation I would care to have with my mother.
Honestly it sounds like the kind of thing that is based entirely on squick she has not had to overcome yet for any reason and once she has a reason she will deal with it.

That is the strangest reason I have ever seen for someone being anti bi. Also, bi erasure absolutely sucks.

Re: Need some help
Thanks for all the replies everyone, I did read them and all that but I don't know my password off the top of my head and I read them off my phone. I did think of calling a nurse hotline actually, but I couldn't find one that was running this weekend. There probably is one, but I was having an extre...

Need some help
Hey people I hope this isn't inappropriate but I don't know anyone I can ask and I am kind of worried. Last night I couldn't sleep, like I was up until 6 am, and then I got about 2 hours of sleep before I woke back up. Can't fall back asleep now because of some sort of jaw ache, maybe an ear infecti...

Re: Limits on freedom of speech
Personally, my next action would depend heavily on context. History with the individual, the venue where the thing was said and the refusal made, etc. Since they appear to be polite my first step would be to ask why not. The most likely situation is that the individual doesn't know that what they ar...

Re: Limits on freedom of speech
Adding my two cents. I think that freedom of speech should actually be called freedom to communicate. This is why art is included under "speech" when it is often categorically not speech. Art communicates. With that in mind I think that there are different types of speech/communication, an...

Re: Codes of Conduct
@Arclight_Dynamo I think you might have hit on one of the exceptions I noted, even if I didn't specifically call it out. Sometimes there is a legitimate use of these kinds of words. And sometimes these legitimate uses are hit on, and sometimes someone says a word they didn't know was bad, and there ...

Re: Codes of Conduct
I assume this was spawned by some argument on the forums about someone using a word that they didn't want to stop using. I think it is a reasonable request that people don't use certain words that have historically been a problem. For example from my own situation, tranny, f*g, and gay (when used as...

Thanks for your sympathy everyone, and again thanks for listening to my problems. It helps. I really think I am pretty much over it. I cried a ton this past week, it was really bad, but I am fine now. I guess if they don't want a relationship with me, only "him", then I guess we wont be se...
