/lgbt/ - LGBT

a /pol/ wouldn't have restraint to be normal about it, there'd be traces of spaghetti. The reason you can't discern it is because you don't know much about therians.

I definitely reccomend fedi over bluesky, bluesky is basically just a bunker a bunch of artists that couldn't wrap their heads around federation stuck to and will probably bail from soon. That said, the average blueskier is fairly normal about advanced queer stuff, but occasionally has discourses you'd expect of like 2014 tumblr or pre-zuckerberg tiktok.

>they seem too humanist
humanism is believing in any kind of transcendental essence not just making fun of your larp you stupid pseud

>>5550
who cares
why would i pretend to hold a closed-minded position against some slightly odd but ultimately harmless people trying to be happy just because /pol/ might see me doing it?

normalize kink shaming again

I don't use public pools, which is probably a factor as to why I've never been all that dysphoric aside from my face.

Can we stop with this stupid fucking "take your meds" meme already? Meds didn't magically cure your brain and make you come out as trans that is utterly absurd and you know it. It was obviously a long and difficult personal journey of self-discovery and you did the work figured it out yourself, meds had nothing to do with it. Stop externalizing.

Also you were the same person when your uncle was alive as you are now, you existed back then, that was part of your life too, your identity is one continuous everchanging whole that has always been there from the day you were born and you have been gradually figuring it out and evolving as you go through life just like you are supposed to. Your uncle knew you, he didn't get the chance to know you exactly as you are today in the most recent update, but he still knew you and it's not your fault that he died and can't be here to see you right now. He just died, it happens. Nothing you can do about it, nothing you could have done about it.

Also just because you realized that you are trans and not nonbinary doesn't mean that the same thing is true of me and other nonbinary people, you can validate yourself without having to invalidate other people in the process, you realize that right?

That's a wild turn of events but kinda sounds like it worked out in the end. Congrats on finding a top to come breed your bussy.

Still here, still 33, still no bf.
I'm my own worst enemy because I'm too scared to put myself out there.

I think the girl I like just gave me the clap or gonorrhea but honestly I feel like it's my foult for going raw and not taking the doxypep I literally just bought to prevent this exact situation
anyway rn I only have some very balanitis so I'm mostly just sad I wont be able to have le sex n such

>is it true most of the LGBTQ+ community are now filled with middle class individuals or not?
yes? so? even marx in the fucking 19th century noticed the middle class was growing and was going to continue to grow, its only natural that most queers are middle class today, especially as they gain rights and join proper bourgeois society. also ofc the thread is going to be amerilards pretending the proletariat is a majority anywhere except the biggest shitholes today lol

>>5497
>most LGBT people are poor and marginalized
this is only true of trans people today lol

>because they're systematically oppressed
yes being poor is "systematic oppression", kinda redundant there

>>4941
you can be middle class and poor retard, its called being downwardly mobile. theres also something called HDI

>>4939
you have to define the category 'middle class' for it to be meaningful. 'LGBT community' should also be defined (do you just mean "LGBT people" or do you mean the specific, online, english-language america-centric LGBT community?)
most of the online LGBT community are downwardly mobile lower middle class westerners, with a weird sort of distribution that means the loudest voices are either unemployed and impoverished (lots of time to post, not much else to do), or upper-middle income. (they do a popular podcast about gay movies and posting hot takes doubles as advertising)

but this is a function of a bunch of selection biases (there aren't too many papuan tribesmen with an income of $444 a year posting in english on twitter.com even before you look for the sub-set who're LGBT, and the sub-set of that sub-set who want to talk about LGBT things with foreign strangers they'll never meet irl) rather than because of the distribution of LGBT people themselves.

>>4939
gay and trans are trve proletarians, unless most of them dislike my take on AI art, in which case they're petit bourgeois roaches being proletarianized

>is it different for women? this is why im confused.
its basically about staying in memory, be it through exceptional looks, personality or money
>do i just need to annoy women and get them to argue with me and they'll want to sleep with me?
if you look good yeah if not youre just a chud, sorry kid

>>5500
I like lean muscles guys AND twinky girly boys :(

>>5499
God, i hate how men who are assholes get rewarded. I hate mean men so much

>People aren't attracted to anything. We're just deluded into being attracted to shit based on ads shoved in our faces. Take a child, pump him up on Victoria's secrets ads, and he'll grow up whakcing it off to scrawny female models that look like they survived the Holocaust. Attraction doesn't come from within you. That's why you can't explain it. It comes from the outside like a virus.

Behaviorism is outmoded and has been roundly disproven by modern science. The idea that everything humans think and do is determined entirely by outside influence is just internalized totalitarianism, a personal denial of autonomy and agency. It's also a lazy copout - you don't want to do the very difficult and scary work of developing your metacognitive ability to learn how your own brain works, so you just convince yourself that you are not a person, you're a parrot that repeats back whatever you hear and you have no creativity or imagination or will of your own. And it's a self-fulfilling prophecy - by doing this, you've basically committed intellectual suicide and you have renounced your own humanity. Nice going retard.

>its basically about staying in memory, be it through exceptional looks, personality or money
i dont know, im really not convinced of this. if it we're true id get a lot more attention from women. or at least, it would mean that "exceptional" has a very narrow definition. i dont think women are attracted to a man just because he sticks out. i imagine it has to be in a every particular way.
>if you look good yeah if not youre just a chud, sorry kid
im pretty average in looks and ive gotten laid just because ive been able to keep a girl's attention. i believe that it would be more accurate to say that women are attracted to guys who are able to keep them hooked somehow, like they can't really just let you go for some reason or another. like there's just something about them that makes you want to engage. i think this is why good conversation can really turn a woman on in a way that just doesn't work on men. if you can keep a woman enthralled as a passionate speaker, make her think, make her laugh, make her engage with what you say, then she can definitely fall for you, this is why i think they often fall in love with their teachers or professors.

Mods, permaban this voluntarist, NOW!

why so angry? can't handle the slightest challenge to your worldview? the etymology of a word doesn't explain why it becomes popularized and maintains popularity?

>>5453
first off, you spelled it wrong. second off, why sapphic? what does that mean? is a trans man a man or not? can straight men be sapphic? can bi ones?

>>5503
>fascism is when words have meaning
asserting that words have primacy over material reality is fascist-adjacent, yes

next you're going to tell me that the words "man" and "woman" exclude trans people because [merriam webster]

>>5504
>the etymology of a word doesn't explain why it becomes popularized and maintains popularity?

Yeah I'm sure you are right, it's not like Ancient Greece or Rome were vast empires that influenced all of human society or anything.

>>5507
>asserting that words have primacy over material reality is fascist-adjacent
I'd say the material reality is that if you aren't a woman you can't be a lesbian.

Using it is good. Having regular erections is better for penile atrophy, orgasms for that and your prostate as far as rule of thumb goes. The problem is that you might stop feeling compelled to do so, which means you'll spend longer getting used to changes in the sensitivity of your genitals. Or, you could find some sort of testosterone cream, though I'm not sure the specifics on that

Low doses of estrogen acrually work? I heard that microdosing estrogen doesn’t do anything because the testosterone would cancel it out.

>>5373
Not to be hugboxy, but did you get second opinion on your looks? Self perception can be biased.
>t. spend years thinking I am repulsive goblin creature

>>5458
I can second this. I've met people who insisted they were ugly when they were actually insanely cute. I myself always thought I was meh but a number of people have found me really attractive.

hello lot. aap poonah visiting from /tttt/. board's going to shit so some folks said to start checking this place out instead. what's y'all's deal? i kinda expected it to be like /tttt/ but without the neonazis but this just feels like edgier tumblr. can't say it isn't kinda nice tho, i've been starting to explore leftism and it's nice to be in a board that's not full of random white chuds calling me the nword.

>"Femboy" eceleb
>look inside
>woman
Should be illegal tbqh. I'm not normally a fan of gatekeeping labels but if you're going to call yourself a femboy you should at least be AMAB or identify as a man.
