There's a hierarchy of how you handle bullshit from cunts in a professional environment, and she never even talked to her boss about it, just a colleague. The moment Mary climbed into her toilet stall to check if she was taking a dump was the moment the OP should have documented with HR. That is just crazy.

Jerry Cotton posted:All old people suck. therobit posted:White and has money, no longer a social pariah, FYGM. Does that help? Yea not that super complex really. Tons of people in the LGBTQ movement as a whole suck rear end because they A) have always been in privileged positions despite having to face discrimination in other ways and/or B) are VERY focused on a narrow assimilationist view of 'progress' where the goal of all queer people is to get a nice suburban home with a spouse and 2.5 kids. Unfortunately what with capitalism being a cancer even among the oppressed those people tend to be in leadership positions in the community due to wealth, so you get a lot of 'LGBTQ' groups that are, say, more than happy to toss the 'T' under the bus as soon as the fight for progress becomes more complex than 'we want to get married and adopt kids'. It's really no different than countless other groups deal with, it's like when you see some older respected feminist figure all 'well I don't know why we're worrying so much about sex workers' rights in feminist communities honestly' or whatever, they're just being old and kinda lovely because it's not really an issue that affects them any more and they don't...give a poo poo?

thatguy posted:nah I just really don't get it, I'll be the first to admit it. I don't understand the dynamic between old trans and new trans, because old trans dudes spend all their time trying to pass with varying success while new trans might or might not, sometimes they'll just self-identify as whatever they feel fits them. But I also don't understand the standard bigotry between old gays and trans people either, because you'd think if there was one group unwilling to immediately discriminate against an already discriminated group you'd think it'd be gay dudes who grew up in the 70s and 80s. There's a long and storied history of formerly-persecuted minorities pulling up the ladder once they've climbed to a respectable levels of society.

Usually people are doing the best they can to relieve dysphoria, but what makes someone dysphoric varies from person to person. Also, it's more acceptable to be non-conforming to gender roles, I think, so if someone is able to get taken seriously as the gender they identify as without having to go brawny he-man or super feminine sometimes they're just not going to bother.

sweet thursday posted:*drama teacher pokes his head through the house curtain before the show* This is the actual internal monologue of half of the high-school drama teachers on Earth; the other half is burnouts or just hilariously laissez-faire. This doesn't affect the quality of the school's drama program, just the degree of micromanagement.

Me [28F] with my fiance [32M] -- I feel like I'm a hostage to his dream wedding.quote:I don't know precisely where to start, so I'm sorry if this rambles. I guess I'll start with explaining myself. I have always hated both most everything about weddings and being the center of attention at events. I can remember several events in my childhood that cemented this: being forced to be a flower girl for an uncle and hating it as a small child, being forced to have large, fancy birthday parties by my father (parents divorced; my Mom respected my wishes on this stuff, my father did not and it eventually cased a huge rift), etc. I did not walk at graduation (HS or college) for similar reasons, and my father and other family members blew up at me, etc. So similar things have been an issue my entire life, I think. I'm not shy or anything (was as a kid) but I am introverted and not keen on being the center of any "day" in particular. I don't want "my day" and really hate the whole idea of a wedding spotlight on me in any way, shape, or form. I also hate a lot of marriage/wedding traditions: diamonds, roses, frill/lace/cutesy stuff at all, white clothes, matching clothes, etc. I don't enjoy planning events or attending big events.

It was signed by the teacher so I had to look after it/wouldn’t be easy to make a replacement.

Grape posted:Making platonic friendships with women as a straight dude is easy, at least once the teen years are gone. I get asked because I'm an ok looking dude, I'm under 40, we own our own business with employees and I work in an outdoor field in National Parks and forests and get to travel a lot. I work closely with my partner (who's gay), and get sick of the conversations that are long and drawn out explaining our odd couple dynamic, so it's just easier to say we're both gay so I don't have to worry about it again. If we did tons of small purchases like a brick and mortar or whatever, it'd be different but we spend 2-4 months per contract usually so we spend time enough we have to routinely deal with the office people. Because most of the parks and forests we work for are in rural areas we're new blood. It's just out of expedience.

Another nanny story then! My (41F) neighbors are making my nanny (24F) really uncomfortable and I am not sure where to go from here. quote:So I am a single mom of 2 twin boys that well call Luther and Donovan (3). My husband died of cancer 4 months after they were born after being diagnosed for 48 hours. It was obviously a huge shock but luckily I have amazing family and friends that all rallied together and took care of me and my boys. I still see a therapist but the years are passing and can feel the pain fading more and more with each year.

MarcusSA posted:gently caress this guy. I wish I had been taught Spanish when I was a kid because lol at doing it now. Spanish for an English speaker in the US is learning a foreign language on easy mode. You'll always have an accent but if you start with a community college class or two it is easy to get to where you can at least communicate. Spelling is super easy when compared with english and you don't have to learn a new script.
