On Feb 27, 2022, with shaky hands, I gave myself my first shot. Here I am, one year later (minus 2 days, but close enough) feeling so much better about myself and who I am, thanks to support from my amazing fiancee @Tabi_42, and these wonderful little vials ☺️
@tuvya68@AvaLovelaceX Thank you for demonstrating to the class that you don't know the difference between dysmorphia and dysphoria. Now do us all a favor and go look up what the difference is between the two before you try to engage any further.
@_celia_bedelia_ I know this doesn't need to be said, as it's painfully obvious, but someone needs to give these people a dictionary for Christmas or their birthday or something, so they can learn what words mean.
@AjtrReid@daniellismore Some may hide, but some of us look that fear in the face, recognize where the real threat lies, and get a tattoo on the bottom of our feet, the ink made with the ashes of our dead abusers, so we can walk on their grave for the rest of our lives.
@AjtrReid@daniellismore heard about someone being arrested for repeatedly assaulting their own child over the course of years? Why do you think that is? Because children are threatened into silence, and / or the family / community turns a blind eye or sweeps it under the rug. You're not just barking up
@AjtrReid@daniellismore Hey, hi. One of those one-in-five here 👋🏼 Governmental guidance, bathroom doors, and signage wouldn't have made a damn bit of difference when my father SA'ed me in the living room. Also, statistics show that the overwhelmingly vast majority of SA victims know the perp.
@Trumpistheg0at_@OldManLefty1@LeslieS93182671 Aww, you really thought you were onto something there, didn't ya, sport? And yet you still didn't try hard enough to even get a participation trophy.
@BestMidwestMan@brianatheroux@HilldurG Just a thought here, but maybe women would be more inclined toward sex if mens' idea of foreplay and arousal consisted of more than an ass or tit grab and the equivalent of "lemme smash".
@turnintoabat These are the same clueless people who never look close enough to see the eyes. The eyes always tell the story. I've seen so many trans people who were definitely attractive pre-transition, but their eyes were so dark and dim and hollow. But after? After, oh how they shine!
@Blade94Razor@Mikacakey@Willowfoxxo They're not the same thing. Dysphoria is psychological distress caused by feelings of incongruence between sense of self and outward appearance. Dysmorphia is a distorted view of one's physical self (such as what's experienced by people with EDs)
@LottieCircus@_celia_bedelia_ Any sort of gender affirming care, regardless whether one is cys or trans, tends to benefit the individual's mental health. And if you want to be taken seriously in a conversation, you may do well to refer to trans women as women, not men. Otherwise, it's all just bad faith.
@girlfromsouthie @luxemiaa This! My kid has their own space at both homes, but brings certain things like in-progress craft supplies, sketch books, plushies, etc back and forth.
@TysStuff@_celia_bedelia_@legaltweetz I can see it now. She shows up in some terfy shirt, is categorically ignored because *yawn* yet another unimaginative terf, must be Tuesday, amirite? She later takes to social media to go on a screed about being shunned for being detrans.
@_peluchev @garlotic While many artists use needle groupings for heavier lines and for shading and color fill, it's absolutely not uncommon to use single-needle bars for super fine work. However, placement is a huge factor and in a highly mobile spot like this, the ink will definitely get displaced +
