  • A year ago i would have agreed. Then i had to clean up a vomitted banana shake. Still love the circus peanuts, banana laffy taffy, and those pink-brown-white coconut candies that everyone's grandma used to buy.

  • Agree. I understand expressing acceptance of non hetero love so kids know that there are other options and they're valued, but i don't need to know what labels everyone has chosen, who they're having sex with, or what is under their undies. And i believe that many people who are medically trans are chasing a masculinity or feminity that they feel is not allowed as a male or female and it's sad that the stereotype is what they're moving towards or away from instead of individuality. Also, kinda drunk, so probably disregard.

  • It's totally anyone's choice, but it makes me sad that some people are so unhappy with their bodies and i think it often has much more to do with meeting a stereotype or perceived norm or beauty than with the actual body. Obviously many people have serious issues that impair function and the opportunity to increase independence is huge. For those who are chasing something else, that may be more internal than external, what happens when they augment and have the same (or more) problems?

  • Do you have insurance? Cognitive therapists and speech therapists work with people who struggle after stroke, head injury, etc. It might be worth seeing if your doc will refer you for an eval or maybe talking to a neurologist. There's a group called BIND (brain injury network) that may be able to help you find free/cheap resources. They have a website with faqs and contact info.
