I agree with the other replies too, but also yes. The hardest thing for some people to understand about my transition is that I don't want to be a different person than I was before. I'm not trying to change who I am. I just want to live who I have always been where people can see it in a way they couldn't before.

As for you: talk to trans people. See if you can relate to them.

I second this whole thing. Consider your gender. Spend a bit of time thinking about it. If you are trans and don't know, it's not something that's going to suddenly start being true, you're just going to put the pieces together.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I didn't turn anything, I just found a way to say what I had already been feeling the whole time. I never felt like a "man" or a "boy" and just smiled and nodded when other people described me in those categories. I didn't have the words, didn't have a way to let other people know how I felt about myself until now, and still struggle with some people who still don't understand.

I'm not a woman because I like nail polish, dresses, or unicorns, and I'm not not a woman because I like video games, dragons, and nerd shit. I'm a woman because that's who I am, and once I realized that was "allowed" it was the only true way to say it. I'm not a feminine man and I never was, and while I don't think I'm a particularly masculine woman, I didn't think "looking girly stuff" or "liking manly stuff" is ever going to define who you are. If you honestly don't know who you are, I can see it helping you figure it out, but if you are comfortable being who you are, you don't need to change it.

I was thinking the same thing.

She asked me to murder someone. You know, couples stuff.

Whaaaaat!? Grooming? But Humbert isn't trans? This is just normal behavior, it only becomes wrong when you are already a persecuted minority.

...in Points of Origin

Okay, I think you need to be more specific? I really don't know what story you're referring to.

I believe you. I meant more that it "won" conceptually than phonetically. To an American ear it sounds more like "aw" or "ah" than "o".

Pretty sure "caught" won and "cot" lost in the caught-cot merger. I don't think most Americans would conceive of it as an "o" sound

White queen has to choose between meeting a king or a bear.

Because it was played twice

It's totally illegal right up until it suddenly isn't squatting any more

I mean, there are so many ways. Just look around

Wait, wait, wait. You're telling me people leave their homes?!

Yeah, it's trans masc instead, but it did give us the very fun trans masc trans mask.

You're good, I just think it's worth saying out loud. There's probably plenty of parents who do think the Bible says it, even though it doesn't

Don't have to tell me twice

What it actually says is not to lay with a man as you would with a woman. It's not about being gay, it's about topping!

The Hebrew Bible maybe, but it's pretty clearly outlined by Paul in the new testament that non-jewish Catholics definitely don't have to follow Jewish custom (and don't have to be circumcised in particular)

I hate that our choices are a guy who should be retired vs a nazi that should be retired.

Very well said
