Thanks for revealing the serious "issue". We should have members of congress discussing this every single day and invest ton of money to legislate on the subject.
I just wanna pee in peace and safety without being looked at, talked to, heard, smelt, harassed, raped, beat up, mugged, arrested, or executed.
One time I was at the mall with my partner and some friends (all girls) and we were drinking bubble tea and shopping and hanging out, it was really nice. After a couple hours, we all had to pee and walked towards the nearest bathrooms. Everybody else got to go, and I was just too uncomfortable to go into either of the bathrooms, so didn't and was just physically uncomfortable for the next few hours while I held it.
I wish it wasn't an issue and I could deal with my own transition without the added riling up of people and possible legal issues of GOING PEE.
I honestly just avoid doing stuff now because it's so stressful and risky. I can't even leave the country anymore because I can't risk getting my documents confiscated and put on a list trying to get a passport. I feel like a second rate citizen in my home country. Land of the free: only if you're a cishet white man.
It’s so fucking stupid. And the gotcha of “well, you don’t want the masculine trans man in the bathroom with your daughters” doesn’t work either. It’s not about bathrooms, it’s about not wanting us to exist.

The clownfish deserve clarity, damnit!
The male fish use anemones, the girl fish use awonemones
The Ocean.
Ask a republican. They’ll have lots of opinions.
The big blue one
Reality is so woke.
One time I was talking to a friend of my parents (all Christian maga) about Cicada Killer wasps, and how the female is the deadly one that provides for the colony. The response from the friend was, "That's so backwards to nature!"
Luckily, my mother saw the ignorance and replied with, "How do you think Lions hunt?" That was just as surprising.
Humans are backwards if anything, humans are the invasive species, humans are superior only through war, killing and stealing from others.
Nature is beautiful. The human species is not.
No, humans aren’t weird at all. Read about parasites, River blindness, Surplus killing, Chimpanzee diet (note the abundance of monkeys in their preferred prey).
The only thing remarkable about humans is our success. We’ve been able to use technology to adapt to and survive in environments far from the ones we evolved in. Otherwise many insect species such as ants have been nearly as successful as humans, inhabiting every continent save Antarctica.

Turnin the fricken frogs gay
Raises questions about the movie Nemo
Nemos dad was a bitch
Well, it was about growth. So I guess he transitioned to female at the end of the film.
I'm happy for her
its called sequential hermaphrodism, many fish do this, like wrasse. also thier sex determinism is very different mammals. as oppose to things like silmultaneous hermaphrodites: annelid worms, tapeworms.
This isn't even my final form!
sheds penis and grows boobs
Jokes aside, I think Frieza (at least the American VO version) was the first character that made me wonder about the gender norms forced upon us by the church. The voice and initial behavior was fairly feminine, but then it was supposed to be a male the whole time? Or maybe neither! I'm kinda glad they never really called it out. If they did, I missed it and wasn't a serious part of the plot.
They've referred to Frieza as a "he" a few times in the English and original Japanese version.
As well as the non cannon movie about his brother Cooler.

I have genitofemoral neuralgia. According to my neurologist, my pain most closely resembles severe period cramps, and occasionally will manifest akin to childbirth.
Women are the stronger sex. Trust me.
Since I've had my IUD it's super sporadic and sometimes I kinda forget and then last week I wasn't even up trying to pass meds or lift patients or anything I was literally just sitting suicide watch and just doubled over in the chair wondering if I was about to involuntarily expel my IUD, the world's biggest shart, or both simultaneously. I wound up begging a coworker for a break and finding a bathroom off the unit to destroy.
Nursing lyfe.
Idk, I've had a vasectomy with no anesthesia.
But, there's really no standardized way to measure pain, so this conversation will always be moot.
Same here. They just did it in the office with a laser. Nothing in comparison. I have persistent lightning-like stabbing pain in one testicle. That’s what my neurologist likened to period cramps. It’s bananas that women can just go about their day in that condition. It’s way beyond distracting.
When I move the wrong way, the pain floods my entire groin, to the point of complete disorientation, visual white out, profound ringing in my ears, and freezing cold rippling chills throughout my body. I’ve almost passed out on several occasions.
This is a great description of severe cramps. Please accept your honorary Period Enjoyer Certificate™ and also my condolences.
Hopefully they come up with a solution for yours, because the solution for mine was an IUD and it sounds like that one won't work for you.
Thank you. Me too. I’m glad to hear you found a way to make your pain more manageable.
Your doctors have ruled out physiological causes of it?
It was initially caused by crossing my legs the wrong way and pushing back while sitting in an office chair. I was then misdiagnosed and had a surgery that compounded the problem with adhesions. It’s been a rough five years.
Only someone strong would want to have another child after having gone through childbirth before.
Does https://lemmy.world/c/196 know about this yet? Seems like a story that’s begging to be cross-posted if anyone knows how.
Nemo and his father would have been a lot closer in a realistic version.
Why do you think he was so desperate to find him? Did you see any other clownfish throughout the movie?

Thanks for the share. This article led to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_hermaphroditism and then further down the rabbit hole. Hermaphroditism is wild.
