boring person rule

  • I'm interesting I just am out of the habit of acting on it. Theres a bit in a book I'm reading about imagining filming yourself all day. What would the video look like? (it'd be a video of you sitting at the computer). And that imagery is meant to be inspiration enough for me to work on my avoidance. TBH the entire CBT book for avoidance can be summed up by that "gamer posture" meme where the left is bad posture and the right is great posture but its a cat girl with a big butt. This meme is all I think about while I'm imagining the camera pointed at me, gaming all day. In other words, my day would be better if I had... Better posture 😹

  • Where can I buy a quality pleated skirt? I'd prefer something not 100% polyester. It seems like such a helpful passing item (two thirds rule) and yet not so easy to find. I found some denim skirts recently, and Ive gotta say that might be the ticket for me.

  • I had the opposite happen, my therapist wanted me to "just try estrogen for two weeks" to see if my foggy brain symptoms would resolve. Scared me and I decided to keep working on my depression symptoms without her help. But I did keep in mind the more helpful things she did to help me crack my egg.

  • As someone who this meme applies to perfectly - this meme doesnt explain why I had angry mannerisms or why I wouldn't put on cute clothes (I didnt accept myself, had gender dysphoria etc.) So its not really hitting the mark as helpful / informative even when it hits that perfect target audience. Thank you for pointing out the many other issues with it that I'm not as aware of.

  • Thats not how trans actually works though. You can't just be convinced youre trans if youre not. Well I suppose a male who wants feminine skin could be a femboy. But otherwise? Every currently masculine person who would like to be feminine... Is some sort of transfem.

  • Please follow the egg prime directive.

    So many people tried to tell me I was trans and I was but it just led me to me repressing memories and avoiding the topic. It was extremely harmful to me that all of my friends did this.

    What worked was someone sending me to a website and saying "read this, if you have any questions, I'm here for you and I have some answers and more websites."

  • This is an important observation. You're probably more right, that things can get worse without people caring. Sometimes when we say things will get worse unless we do something, that does prevent a bill from passing or someone awful getting elected or some business going bankrupt etc.

  • I'm so sorry you were told that. I'm glad you know its bullshit and you're spreading the message with this meme. I thought I was aware to the extent transmeds were transphobic... Nope, you've shown me where the goalpost really got moved to.

  • Americans do this with property too. If we only regulated foreigners from doing it, that would allow american investors the opportunity to do it more beduase they have less investors to compete with.

  • Definitions change based on who they are useful for. The medical definition used to say dysphoria only, and now its starting to say euphoria too. Because thats valid.

    And saying you're queer while claiming to be a straight male to prove a point might be... Rebellious, but Im glad youre trying the labels on for size. Youre valid.
