@Jahdi_ @tuesdaylongway @Tutang96 Well the digging deeper part is true, but its easy to say that a three people having a calm disagreement exploded. And it might be easy to put the blame on me, but i think if you read through. Its not easy to stop standing up for yourself when ppl call you racist out of nowhere.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@precatlady @Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway Double down on what? nothing i said was racist. A disagreement abt gendering. 3 people disagreed. N you jumped in with ur purity pledge wings to tell me you would have handled this better and ironically asserted that you would mind your own business. The internet is so wild.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@precatlady @Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway Just like you have now responded to me, and asserting that you could never get mixed up in something like this. Disagreeing with people and then they decide your racist, that would never happen to you?

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@precatlady @Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway There were three people who replied to me after i came back on twitter a week later. I had no idea it would turn into such an issue except with the one person saying that love languages are only for white women (with white appearing pic) I was merely responding to them.

@beagles_bagel @tuesdaylongway This is twitter, there are no spaces. just public comments everywhere. that's wild.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@Tutang96 @precatlady @tuesdaylongway Then why point out where my twitter says I live? You're trying so hard to trash me. for what? whats the point? what does this solve?

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@tuesdaylongway There was zero labor on your end in this case. I suggested you reflect on respecting what people want to be called and your friends freaked out on me and made this about how i look. The labor is on my end.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@precatlady @Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway Secondly, I did, just what you're doing now. And one person argued i was wrong, so I posted some information highlighting the proof of why i made that statement. This is about misgendering calling what they want. One person called out the way I look and suddenly its about race.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@precatlady @Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway FYI I'm not in Boston, I'm in Oregon. Just didn't change my location. Also, just because I amplify melanated voices doesn't mean I can't disagree a statement that happens to have been said by a Black person.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@HansoDroid @tuesdaylongway @Tutang96 How is anything about this racist? I am not the one who brought up race. And if anything, I'm the one who highlighted that Black people are not a monolith and many of them know about love languages and push it. Its not exclusively a white woman thing.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway I find it so interestingly ironic how excited you all are about a difference of opinion for a person saying they don't care what a person wants to be called. And they say I'm upset and berating people. ����

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@Tutang96 @tuesdaylongway I wasn't upset about the word bub. I was merely pointing out a discrepancy and the fact that either way if someone tells you they don't want to be called something, one might just honor it. Instead of taking it personally and then posting about it on fb 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@DonaldDagon @tuesdaylongway How am i berating you? You posted a reply asserting what you considered a fact. I provided proof that it is not a fact. Is that berating to you?

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@tuesdaylongway @Tutang96 Does it make you feel better to grasp at straws to find some sort of insult? 3 people commented on my opinion of what you said. My opinion wasn't even an insult. It was a suggestion. I was confused a person saying they were misgendered if they are he/him so suspect theres more.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@DonaldDagon @tuesdaylongway And the theres the German

either way, intention vs impact. If someone doesn't want to be called something, your intentions don't matter.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@DonaldDagon @tuesdaylongway bub
/bəb/
nounINFORMAL•NORTH AMERICAN
an aggressive or rude way of addressing a boy or man.
"hey, bub, I'm looking for someone"

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@DonaldDagon @tuesdaylongway BUb not "bubbie" two different things. Perhaps the person heard bubbie, and thought of what you're saying. Either way theres a serious miscommunication happening here and its shrouded in "i get to purposely misgender you and here is my excuse" im calling bs.

[Lima Being @lima_being]

@fancytrashlady @tuesdaylongway 1. how do you know that he was talking about a stranger?

2. Love languages was written by a man and a good handful of Black men I know not only know about it, but believe in it. So you can't really make that assumption either.
