Had to take a bite out of that sweet tart pie nonetheless
im so fucked if anyone irl finds me on Lemmy holy shit
I love watching the crushing realization of ones own internet brain rot setting in.
It’s not brain rot if the internet is an outlet where you can be who you truly are. It’s the rest of the world that is fucked for forcing people to hide their interests and identity.
Fair point, if only real life could be the hedonistic frontier that the internet is.
Real life is ruined by the blunt and ignorant people that spew hatred and division everywhere. Best to avoid them by having good friendships and using the internet as a substitute
fr like, why cant we just all fuck all day😮💨
We truly do live in a society
inside you there are 2 monkeys: one is a chimpanzee munching on the flesh of its enemies and one is a bonobo tossing off 5 others simultaneously.
we need to seal the chimp inside a block of concrete and give the bonobo a big stage to perform on
True. If anyone in my social surroundings found out I like femboys and Tomboys they would be weirded out and shun me from their socials, I guess. The internalized shame is so strong, but why?
Yeah, internalized shame is a hell of a thing, but - at least in my view - it is good to realize that it is forced upon us and not something that comes from within ourselves. It is hard to unlearn, but very liberating to do so, even if the possibilities to live the way we want is limited.
Well said, you sound like you are at peace with who you are. I hope and wish for you to be able to express yourself the way you want.
I exist IRL. I found you.
same boat bae
second panel
based
This sucks. Implies he can only like a trans woman if he’s bi and not if he’s straight.
wait how tho?
bi flag in the bg of the last panel.
oh jeeze egg on my face for not recognizing it!

Why does it matter?
Because the idea that a man attracted to trans women could not be straight is transphobic. Trans women are women and a man attracted to women can be straight regardless of whether they’re trans or cis.

Not sure what that has to do with what I said. I didn’t suggest anyone should be compelled to have sex with anyone…

Nah. Even if it’s hetero, it’s probably not straight. Straightness is similar to whiteness; simply a term to say “you’re normal and deserving of respect.” It’s a normal word, not simply a descriptive one.
Dating a nonbinary person as a binary person is definitionally hetero, but hard to call straight. An agender person and a bigender person would totally be het, but totally not be straight. If it’s not a relationship between 2 monogamous, cishet people assigned opposite sexes at birth, it’s weird and unnatural.
Bigots can literally gatekeep straightness from a cishet woman dating a cisbi man. It’s like a tainting of her for being with a queer person, even if neither she nor the relationship is queer. It doesn’t matter if they’re monogamous for life; it’s one drop of queerness poisoning their ability to be normal. They’d need to hide his true orientation.
You definitely have a point there, although I would say that any person with interest in cis-hetero relationships only could call themselves straight.
Mods here deleted my comment, idk why tho. Seems like a classic case of: "bisexuality is le heckerino transphobia!!1!!1!
So wait, are they a femboy and not a trans woman then?
I think boils down to “similar optics, different gender identity”, but I’m neither of these flavors so I really don’t know. But for this joke, I think either works.
Calling for assistance: we need a ruling here. Halp.
i would say femboys are generally seen as not wanting to be female, just feminine. Same as how crossdressing doesn’t make you trans, it just means you like crossdressing.
a term sometimes used synonymously with femboy is tomgirl, as a mirror to tomboy, and you wouldn’t start calling tomboys trans men would you? They’re people who identify as female but present less femininely.
Thank you for replying. This makes complete and total sense.
so the feminine character is a femboy and not trans because of the bi flag in panel 2? also what’s the difference between a femboy and tomgirl?
the more I read this thread the more confused I get 😓
yeah I noticed that’s why I’m hitting on you.
Anyone else see Little Mac?
Yeah, it’s a costume party.
… how is he holding that beer?
A costume party makes sense. But I don’t recognize the other outfit.
He’s an M&M.
I get it now. It all makes more sense. Thank you.
I…
Okay this works on at least two levels.
Nut a problem
hmm…they come with nuts…body creme maybe?
