I always choose women characters when given the option. It's a game so you can do whatever you want, and your character doesn't have to really reflect on you at all. And you often have more interesting clothing choices for the women. That's also the exact thing a friend of mine always said, before they came out as trans.

Not exactly proud of it but at the time playing the toxic masculinity reverse card was the only defense I could think of.

I [26F] won a trip to Disney World. My cousin [30F] thinks I should take her daughter [5F] but I don't want to.quote:I recently won an all-expense paid trip to Disney World for four nights, for myself and three guests. I am currently planning on bringing my boyfriend [30M] , my mother [54F], and my boyfriend's mother [50sF]. I know we all aren't exactly Disney's key demographic, but it honestly means a lot to our mothers that I am inviting them. Both my boyfriend and I grew up in poorer families that could never afford expensive vacations, and this is the first trip to Disney World for all of us. I know this is probably the only opportunity our mothers will ever have to go to Disney, and for now they are both in good enough health to still enjoy the rides.

When video games don't give you a choice, you're almost always going to play as a man, human, white, and aged 17 to 35. When a game gives me options I'll opt for something other than what I'm used to. It took me a long-rear end time to realize that this is not what anyone would consider a natural response, and I still hold that the people who ignore the options and always go for the most generic protagonist are the weirdos.

Conversely I feel that non-human options in most games don't have good enough writers to be more than "humans who only experience a narrow range of emotions rather than all of them" so why bother? I can just be a human who is always angry if I want to be an orc.

I swear there was another story that was the same premise, but with the details being slightly different a few months ago. Going to Disney with a group of all adults is a VERY different trip than one involving a 5 year old. Zurtilik posted:People think I'm [23/M] either trans or gay because I choose female characters/avatars in video games I mean, if you look at the % of characters that are female vs. the % of players that are female in any given MMO, this isn't exactly uncommon.

Heads up this is some no poo poo elder abuse and I really think this is the plot to a film, mercy Dad has severe dementia/Alzheimer’s. His girlfriend bought him a one way ticket out of the US when she no longer wanted to care for him, and I can’t get him back. She continues to email and call him telling him to do dangerous things. quote:My dad has dual US/Danish citizenship and owns a small vacation house in Denmark where he is currently staying. He has lived with his girlfriend in her home in California for the last 20 years. She has isolated him from me since 2017 when he was diagnosed. Recently she decided she could no longer care for him and instead of accepting my request to take over, she bought him a one way ticket to Denmark and sent him off. She even got him a wheelchair escort and wrote instructions how to pay his bills. She told me it was a “short trip” but come to find out there was no return ticket. He got scared after a few weeks and came back, so she had her attorney write to me refusing all responsibility for him, denying him entry into her home and telling me he is my problem only. They never had a lease, there was no eviction process. He showed up at her door, she temporarily took him in, and then sent him off AGAIN!

I think the reason why is that I'm a bit disconnected from reality. I judge others and think they are not as capable as me (an erronous assumption) - in short, I think everyone else around me is dumb and that I'm the only capable person.

People have zero problems dressing up in cultures that they do not belong to. Specifically white people, but everyone in general. People have no problem throwing on kimonos and tugging their eyelids back for costume parties like Japanese people are skinsuits. I remember a drag queen in the last two years got blasted for wearing ao dai without the pants, something common that fetishizes Viet women as exotic and sexually available in old propaganda and media. To say nothing of the racism that nonblack people can do towards Black people. This is a good point, ppl absolutely DO use queerness to try and hide from being called racist or bigoted in other ways. I honestly only am strained to disbelief by the idea that this woman is only now sitting down and picking her name out (and what a source to pull from!!!) after having gotten surgeries funded by what i assume were gofundmes. ofc, i know some trans people do change their names multiple times while figuring it out, but I think the OP would’ve mentioned that fact.

Norway doesn't extradite to any country with a death penalty, so jump on a ferry and go to town. You can live here indefinitely with Danish citizenship. Hell, bring the sister along- "she was blackout drunk and fell overboard, conveniently just within Norwegian territorial waters" is 100% believable on any and all of the Norway/Denmark ferry lines.
