Right hand suggestion

A graphic illustration of a right hand gently grasping a large arrow pointed diagonally upward. The thumb is up pointing in the same direction as the arrow. A smaller arrow underneath the hand indicates the direction to wrap the fingers around the large arrow. The title of the image is File:Right hand rule simple.png

which front-rule is everyone using?

A look at a user profile using the various front ends for lemmy.blahaj.zone in each one, a majority of images are not rendered.

Sometimes I feel like I'm transitioning out of being queer
  • "nope"! I love it! Lol identity is a fucking trip. It's so amorphous, just as you find the words to describe it you realize you haven't looked at it from a particular angle or accounted for certain behaviors or feelings.

  • I'm so sorry about your experiences in straight spaces. It's so easy to be respectful of someone's identity and does so much harm to not be... I'm angry for you!

    I agree about how cisheteronormativity needs to be deconstructed and I probably wouldn't be friends with anyone that says that straight culture doesn't have problems. In the end, I think it's up to each het individual to parse which parts of the culture are problematic. It's not like I can change my sexuality anyways, and I've definitely tried lol.

    I'm finishing up a pair of socks at the moment! I've got a few things on cables or lifelines though, like a pink pig which would be my first stuffed animal!

  • Thank you it already seems to be a welcoming space! I agree that queer spaces should be more accepting of, for lack of a better word, conforming individuals. My style is somewhat subdued, and I admire and appreciate the diversity of style in the queer community, but I just wish it didn't seem like a requirement to stand out.

  • That's exactly how I feel! I think it's compounded by living in a rural area. I want to fit in not only because that's my childhood dream but also for a sense of safety. I'm not sure what the answer is either. Maybe this is just a stage of transitioning or maybe it's possible to form strong bonds with allies, eventually, the way it seemed to feel easier with queer people before. I just know that I feel lonely at the moment and the queer community as a whole has seemed more distant to me.

    Where are all my transhet sisters?

    I love the queer community and I feel like the more I work on myself, the less accepted I will be as a queer person.

    For example, I joined a queer friend-finding app recently which didn't have an option to label myself heterosexual. At first I went stealth and didn't list my sexuality, and I got lesbians calling me a tease. I made a public post about being transhet and I mostly got messages from weird cis men.

    I'm going to look for friends only under the trans umbrella for now, online and irl.

    To that end: I like pop music, knitting, and politics. Please tell me your favorite online communities and people to follow!
