Anyone got a holographic blue hair and leather jacket they're willing to trade? I have a spare Gus from Breaking Bad

If you need to, say it's a modern kilt or that you're ancient Greek (or Sumerian or Egyptian or Henry VIII ffs). I make sarongs with a pocket, great for summer.

it did begin with a kilt. now I need more

[-] MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

Yah, need to get myself a utility kilt :)

everyone needs one. and if its still cold over there, then also get thermal tights

Thermal leggings were one of the best investments I ever did. Finally can I start wearing skirts while its still quite cold outside.

The truscum position is literally just that you need to have gender dysphoria to be trans, no?

[-] RmDebArc_5@piefed.zip 4 points 1 month ago

To my knowledge that is exactly the point

[-] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Is that not a common (sense) position?

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Until you take a step back and realize that excludes a lot of people's experiences. For one, it's very binary-centric.

Another way to look at it is that you don't need gender dysphoria to experience gender euphoria.

[-] Tonuka@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago

no. There's history to the term that's not captured by simply giving its "definition" (though different people would define it differently, so even that is hard).

Think of it like the self-diagnosis discourse. Some autistic people never get diagnosed, because you know, there's no need if your symptoms are obvious. Some people are annoyed by people who they perceive to be "faking" autism, so they take the extreme position that only diagnosed people are allowed to call themselves autistic.

For Truscum, this often translates into "you can't be trans if your dysphoria wasn't confirmed by a doctor" (not a possibility for most). Or more extreme: "You can't be trans if you do not have significant enough trauma from feeling misplaced in society, otherwise you could just be faking it".
