RaveA heartening playground interaction
I don't even know how many times I've made offhand TERFy comments in casual conversations with new people. Occasionally, someone will seem uncomfortable. I'll refrain from making personal remarks about the type of person I believe stereotypically responds that way, except to say it sure does always seem like the same type and not the type I'd feel like I'm missing out on. Far more often, it is well received. One such encounter happened yesterday. We've been cooped up most of this awful winter, and we had our first warm day. My small one was playing with some other children at the playground and called a long hair boy a girl. I corrected her, and assured her, the child was male. This kid's dad then complained to me that his wife wouldn't let him cut the boy's hair short, and so he looks like a girl. I disagreed. I told him his child didn't look like a girl at all to me, that many men have long hair and lots of people love long hair on men. I said equating long hair to girls was very "trans thinking." His wife, and another mother near us, both reacted positively, nodding agreement, laughing, and the wife saying "Yes! See?" I know it's just one small encounter, but it's the first I've been out aTERFin' since last year, and I found it encouraging. Thought I'd share.
So Allana doesn’t even know how to smile and looks like a tired housewife. And yet, Allana does:
Seems like an awful amount of adrenaline, freedom, and excitement for such a boring mature lady on the picture.
Allana seems “unmarked” by such an adventurous past. An avid outside sports girl who is also into modelling later in life?? Seems unlikely. And if she were, she would look more like a surfer rather than a Nottingham housewife.
Why is she “unmarked” by her adventurous past? Because he was a normal bloke with no sense of style beforehand, being free to selfishly go around doing all the risky sports he wanted, and now his new adrenaline project is pretending to be a woman and a special “model”. Also selfish. The disconnect with what they actually look like is obvious.
I thought the same thing! “Well this is clearly his next foray into attention seeking adrenaline hobbies”
Becoming a woman is an adrenaline passion project for many of them. Just another addiction to cover up their deep-seated self-loathing. A flight from the self.
People running from themselves 😒
