hey DONT USE those evil words! >;(
(i thinksies
trannyis evil wrord... im pretti sur, pls correct me if im wrong)alsuu i dun lik how u put de evil bad wrords all undr de fems... lik... womn aren't... a fetish or... always sissy... neithr are men n bois... i rlli dun lik feelins from dis one... ;(
EDIT: I added "pls correct me if im wrong"
But saying “NOT [evil word]” is kind of important when you are trying to draw boundaries and inform people. If you are vague about the word that shouldn’t be associated with femboys, then people can claim ignorance.
Also, the one with the female symbol is not about females, it is about things femboys are not: Not girl, not fetish, not egg.
Does that make sense? Let me know if you need more clarification. 😊
ahaaa, see, dis mek mor sens.. bt alsuu... thn why is the table not:
u see my point?... now its:
which... i wud say dis cud be falsely interpreted vrri easily. dis rlli is a table wif male column havin comfi words, n female column havin
"not " + uncomfy_word...i see the point, i kno dis post is not evil n i believe peeps correctin me on stuff r correct <3
bt i wan to say, dis vrri mch cn be falsely interprtd...
or rathr: if the female symbol were replavd wif transfem flag, peeps would be way more aggrsiv bout dis one i thinksies
n now ur obligated to commnt agn, becuz i but the "but actulli i thinksies i hav point" part at end of commnt...
I get what you are saying. It would have been better to use X symbol as the header and maybe female symbol under as one of the things femboy is not. I can see how it could be misinterpreted.
Nice use of the table!
I don't think they're implying that women are any of those things, they're saying they aren't those things. Also sometimes it's necessary to say evil words to describe what not to call you. Censoring can cause confusion (unintended or bad faith intentional confusion) saying what not to call you removes all ambiguity.
yes i know... n I didn say that they meant that.
im jus vrri senstiv with evil bad words.. i dun lik em, cuz them make peeps, including me uncomfi. i believe onli dum peeps use evil bad words cuz theyr too lazy to come up with bettr, tru insults. bt yes, in dis case it mek sens... fine. u won... ;(
That makes sense, some people are sensitive to the evil words, and that's totally valid.
I still understand your reaction, Smorty. You had a gut reaction that was unrelated to the intention of the post, and that's okay. 💙
you don't like how it makes you feel when someone else is asking to be respected as their chosen gender?
I think she feels that the things listed under woman are being synonomized or otherwise associated with "woman", and doesn't like that. I don't read it that way, but I can definitely see how she is, as the headers on each side work to that effect
yes!! u got it exactli right. i kno op is vrri nice n comfi so i kno intention isnt evil <3 bt is nice! n i undrstnd what meme says.
yis, fembois r not womn or transwomn!!! diffrnt!!! jus lik tombois r not transmascs or men!!!! vrri tru n u totalli agee <3 <3 <3
it rlli jus is that the top symbols mek me thnk "hmm comfi words on male side, uncomfi words on female... grr big sad ;("
it wud maybsies mek mor sens to hav somthin lik femboi flag on left side n like--.- ❌ symbol on othr.. maybe. this way is vrri obvious what is meant n theres no side thats presentd "bad"
Smorty is a chill girl, and based on previous interactions with her I try to give the benefit of the doubt. I think she interpreted the gender labels as headers rather than being items on the lists. I was trying to get her to re-evaluate her response, but this is the internet and subtlety is a lost cause. I should have just expressed what my actual opinion was, in plain english, instead of trying to be clever. This isn't a dig at Smorty, but just an observation of internet culture at large. As for my actual opinion, expressed in plain english, that's the hard part, i'm bad at actually describing my opinion, so that's still in progress.
oooh... actulli, dis fair point. wait.. no is not...
if were items of list, it weird how there is female symbol n alsuu "not female" in same column.. evn in this case of no headrs, it doesn mek sens....
jus lik... wud mek mor sens if:
what?--- nu! i wud nevr!!
i jus dun lik the evil wrords bein usd here... n alsuu thad their seprated by gendr ;(
when
Chaotic Cookiefeels comf with being man, its of cours totalli supr oki!! <3 <3 <3 i thinks thats supr comf!! ~ <3i dunno where u got thad idea from... thad i dun respect peeps.. i wan evrion to be comfi, nt sad ;(
I know that's not what you meant, we've talked before and I know you're quite reasonable. you, me, and op all want for the same thing.
the phrasing tho makes it sound like you want to shut down a valid conversation because there's a word you don't like in it.
oh... did we? (is hard to rembr username when no pfp...)
nunu, conversations are almost always gud <3 especialli when their bout feelings n being open with one anothr <3 <3 <3 (they not gud when peeps hurt each othr n r not bein honest
;()bt if the conversation involvs swears n bad words... i will leav the tabl. evn if topic is intrsting, n evn importnt to me, i leave when peeps use bad evil words ;(
i change my mind about my first comment, i could have been more clear in what i meant, and I could also have not been a jerk about it, and I should have waited to comment until I thought of a better way to phrase it, especially if I'm going to complain about someone else's phrasing
is all gud! <3 <3 <3
u did no harm!! ~ ~ <3
no one is harmd, no one is uncomfi, is all gud ! <3 <3 <3
