Also, lots of people really care about Souls story for some reason.

Mint broke all the time for me last time i tried using it. After reinstalling it for like the 8th time, I just decided to take a break from Linux. This was like 6 years ago though.

A single takeaway of my personal opinion from this series of polls is that Gen Z is comfortable with themselves, don’t feel the need to hide, and the older generations are following suit and/or the long fought battle for social change from the older generations have finally yielded an environment that people can just be themselves.

At least a small part is simply people having the knowledge to realize they are LGBT, but this is probably more relevant for the less common parts of the rainbow. Part of that is just the internet has grown. I found I gravitated towards queer spaces personally despite thinking I was allocishet at the time.

I can for sure say the general culture today, I would feel comfortable being out in, but in 2012… I would not have been.

This is still dependent on what type of LGBT you are and what area you are in imo. Personally, I don’t think I’d have had any problem being out as gay in 2012 (pretty sure a fair number of people assumed I was and I thought that was cool), but I’m still plenty uncomfortable being out as trans atm, for example. Granted, part of it was I was in school in 2012 and now I work in the field of education (fortunately not a public school) in Texas.

Even if its not fixed or somehow we find a way to change it that isn’t abusive in other ways, it would still be wrong for parents to make that decision for others imo. People deserve more bodily autonomy than that. The problem with PTGA is that it presupposes that being gay is wrong and that’s the primary problem with it. Whether people can choose or not is irrelevant imo. There’s also the secondary problem that the methods used to try to change children are often abusive in other way, but that’s not inherent to it.

I liked comments like that when I didn’t realize I was LGBT. So in that case, the appeal was getting to be a non-cis-het.

Fem and woman aren’t synonyms. How else would you describe someone who was AMAB but is librafem, isn’t a woman and even further from being a man, but still has a connection to femininity?

Lots of transfem people are women, but its sorta like a rectangle and square (all squares are rectangles, but only some rectangles are squares). Practically all trans woman are transfem, but not all transfem people are women.

Enby is an umbrella term that can includes people who are transmasc (ie: demiboys, libramascs), transfems (ie: demigirls, librafems), multigender, agender, genderfluid, and xenogenders. Transfem just describes the direction of transition and is not just limited to binary trans women.

This isn’t a transfem community, nor a transfem enby-excluding community, afaik. There is a transfem community on Lemmy, but it’s explicitly inclusive of enbies, so still not just a women’s space.

Warning. Taking the pink pill may lead to the following side effects: -others suddenly irrationally upset at you -ewwwphoric experiences -jars are harder to open

My parents always used language that didn’t presume we were heterosexual. Eventually, she started using even more inclusive language specifically for me, which was kinda weird but cool. I think she’s finally just realized I’m not interested in romance or sex. Idk. I don’t like bringing up topics like that, and I think she wants to give me space to bring that kind of thing up when I’m ready, so we just play a guessing game?

at that point, a 2x4 is 2 inches by 4 inches.

From my understanding, as tools have gotten more precise, the raw boards have gotten slightly smaller to reach the same standard size with less waste. So, 2x4 doesn’t even refer to modern unprocessed 2x4s, but rather a hypothetical unprocessed 2x4 at some point in the past.

Thought it seemed a bit exaggeratory, but given bullying (including physical bullying) is a thing people experience for being socially awkward, it may not be an exaggeration for some. I wasn’t aware a the difference between masking neurodivergence or gender as a child or a young adult: I just subconsciously learned to behave in accordance to others expectations and keep quiet about some things.
