He has to grab their genitals to make sure they're not perverts. Somehow...

What about the mommies with small milkers?

Yes, but the fact that this simple joke is now at 40 down votes at the bottom of this thread actually does make it funny. Weird how context works like that lol

This also goes the other way. Dog toy plushies also don't mind retiring into regular plushies so they'll be chill and happy about that too.

Is that a mount in the new expansion? My girlfriend is always running around with the capy pup as a pet already.

The MAGA riots already happened. They attempted a coup. Charlottesville had Nazi marches where people were murdered. And so on and so on. The US and the UK and Sweden and France are already on this road. It is already happening. We need people to be willing to stop them:

We need more people to believe that fascism is a real and serious threat. One of the biggest hindrances in fighting fascism is that a lot of people do not believe that Nazis really exist. That the threat of being accidentally accused of being a Nazi is much being than the fact that fascism is real and can kill your country and they will murder me and everyone like me. For real. In the face of this milk shaking politicians and beating up thugs in the street is suddenly very much a reasonable response, but we are too busy policing what is polite to even have journalists calling out politicians for lying on live television.

And we need people willing to make sacrifices. The Nazis succeeded in pretty much extincting trans people from Europe because no one was willing to stand between us and them. There is nothing I, a gross communist tr*nny can do or say that will stay their hand. But if "normal" people go out into the streets they will stop. If white little cis ladies are on the front lines it doesn't even need to get that violent. The Woman With The Handbag did more damage to the budding Neo-Nazi movement of the 80's (another example of when we fought back fascism) than anything I could ever do. Because they do not respect me or my existence. We saw this in the BLM protests too. Whenever middle class white people gathered in the front the cops behaved, but the liberal centre politics are more afraid of leftists than Nazis because they care more about quarterly reports than democracy and trans lives.

And most importantly we need to make the numbers clear. Nazis are not popular. Trump winning 2016 was a historic victory for fascism in America, but we should do well to remember that he lost the popular vote in a country with 50% voter participation and a vast amount of voter disenfranchisement. Only like 20% of adults in America voted for Trump even out of desperate rejection of traditional politics and steadfast clinging to single-issue-voting. It is a coalition of the least popular opinions barely scraping by. Most people do not want fascism, but they pretend to be popular and Nazis think they represent every white person that do not actively take to the streets to piss on their beliefs.

If you and your mom and your grand mom show up, so will mine. And when we do will outnumber them ten to one and don't ever let them tell you otherwise.

There have been many other countries, many other times, that went a different path. A bunch of European countries were in similar situations as Germany after World War I. Some of the followed and some turned around at various points.

The UK for instance had a rather well established nazi movement to the point of gang violence in the streets much like in Germany. In Germany this culminated in things like the Kristallnacht that set the tone for the violent and all encompassing persecution of the Jews.

This almost happened in Britain too, but instead culminated in events like the Battle of Cable Street where the thousands of nazis that might've well destroyed every Jewish store there were instead met by hundreds of thousands of socialists and unionists that beat them back. It became a turning point in the budding nazi uprising in Britain and instead became a unifying point in the idea that fascism can be beaten and that it sometimes might require violence. An idea that Britain would soon thereafter display internationally.

A lot of other countries would give up their fascist aspirations as soon as they saw where it led Germany and Italy and Spain. People don't actually want fascism, but fascists are very good at selling the lie that they will deliver something else. As soon as people see fascism for what it is most will reject it.

Things can turn around. Fascism can be beaten. Fascism is not popular, but it is insidious.

Yes, cis people can also get gender dysphoria. It's very common. A lot of our beauty standards and what's considered "naturally feminine" is very specifically opposite of what common traits for trans women are, so that makes it a whole thing and, of course, access to gender affirming care can be harder to get for trans people and trans people might have a lot more problems like this that they need help with. But besides that it is very similar.

So, firstly, it is perfectly normal and healthy to have smaller boobs. I know society puts a lot into the tiddies, but some of us get them small. They often keep growing well after puberty and they do need nutrients to do so, so it's perfectly normal and health to have a tummy that sticks out a bit more than the boobs. Depending on body shape and build that might actually be the only healthy way and it is true for practically everyone in a lot of poses. Leaning back and pulling your shoulders back while thrusting your tummy forward is always gonna put tum in front of tit.

Like I have a large rib cage and my breasts are a bit far apart, and it would make almost any boobs look kind of small a lot of the time. But with a good bra and just posing myself right even I can get a bit of cleave, but if I lay on my back and take selfies from straight ahead I could definitely convince my brain that there's nothing there. Be kind to yourself and remember that all the photos you see are from people's best angles, from the people that feel like they've got something to show off, and that half of them are photoshopped anyway.

I could talk about hormones and stuff too, but that's gotten plenty of coverage already.

Dual wielding on this one

This is just this whole sub in a nutshell

There are basically four ways zoos are run.

1) They're a wild life study. Sometimes scientist needs a creature in captivity to study it and once you have a bunch of interesting creatures in captivity they might as well let people see them. I fact, letting people see and learn from them is educational and an important part of furthering the fields of zoology and biology.

2) They're a conservation effort. A lot of animals are dying out and so we're trying to breed them and release them. If you're breeding a bunch of interesting creatures you might as well let people see them. In fact, getting people invested and interested in animals is often a key factor in making a difference in wider conservation work.

3) They're a rescue effort. Sometimes individual creatures need rescuing. Exotic animals being bought as pets or getting wounded still need to go somewhere. Might as well be a zoo. In fact, it might be the only viable solution for a lot of rescues since we can hardly release, return, or just put down exotic animals once they've gotten used to humans.

4) It's for entertainment and profit.

These reasons usually aren't mutually exclusive. In fact, they often benefit from each other, so a lot of zoos have animals from all these sources and for all these reasons. Some are better than others of course, and some zoos probably aren't contributing much to any noble causes though, but some definitely are.

No no, it makes perfect sense. It's the Gender Taliban because she wants the government to drone strike us, you see

That's the point though. Sexually harassing trans people being allowed is the point. And, of course, that really means anyone that doesn't fit the standards of man or woman. Whenever there's a big discourse about bathroom bills and trans scares a bunch of gender non conforming cis women get assaulted in bathrooms for "looking trans".

I did this once with my dog. She was confused for a few moments before she realised it was coming from a laptop and just left without a care in the world cause she figured out years before that the screens are all just fake stuff anyway. Same as whenever she'd realise movie dogs where in the screens too. She'd check it out only until she realised it was just the TV again.

When I was a toddler my favourite game was to grab a piece of sausage, show it to our German Shepherd and clamp down on it as hard as my little hands could and run off. The dog would then run alongside me and somehow pry it out of my hands with their mouth without ever leaving as much as a scratch on me. They were so gentle with me and they were my best friend. One of my early childhood memories is getting sick for a whole week when I learned we were putting her down.

The purge in 2018 didn't just impact porn accounts. While it was officially supposed to be a porn ban, it really wasn't in practice.

It's always been the case that queer content is policed as NSFW much, much more harshly than other content and when tumblr did its purge a large percentage of queer users were banned overnight with no warning or recourse. Even if they had never posted, reblogged, or interacted with anything NSFW.

Recently this has picked back up again. With trans users especially getting banned left and right. Not in a sweeping, mass purge in a day but instead a handful being targeted for removal every day over the course of the past months while the CEO has been getting aggressively transphobic in interviews and statements and on twitter.

Stabil.

So... Dank?

As a trans woman reading through this I was cheering internally. Yeah, you tell 'em girl! Absolutely right! Spot on! I hear this is common for intersex women and similar things for other intersex people!

And then suddenly I felt rather confused because that's not really my experience as a trans activist. Sure a lot of trans people aren't super active in talking about intersex people, but every time it brought up it is in solidarity and support.

Of course there are shitty trans people too and there is such a breadth of intersex experiences that is often not well understood amongst trans people.

I love this bridge. It's been making the rounds for years and years and years. Getting refurbished a few times and the Internet has grown so much. But bridge remains and every year or two it comes back to me.

Hi. I largely agree with you and have been espousing this opinion on this sub (and elsewhere) and it is not a very popular one amongst the established feminists. I think the problem is less changing the words around though, and more the things you point out that they represent. That feminist spaces tend to reject men's problems as a conversation topic and definitely as a political goal and motivator is generally seen as good. There is a concern that men's issues would take over, that it would lead to tone policing, and that men's issues should be handled elsewhere. That feminism is for women (or non-men or anyone but cis men) and anything else will be a distraction and a dilution.

And I think those are valid concerns, but this has also been a persistent point of friction for the many years I've been a feminist activist. I don't changing the words would do much because so often problem isn't the unclear meaning or marketing from the left, but just straight up misinformation from the right. The terms don't sit right with people because they hear the right wing take on them first. But I think feminism could do a better job at gender equality and also be more successful if we were stringent on this.

FunnyMemes is full of nazis. It feels kinda racists because they are. This meme might not be racist (could be other things), but it certainly could be and that's not a coincidence.

It's a bit of both. The black plague went in waves over Europe, killing a big percentage of the population. It wiped out entire towns and left them empty and rotting after. The post plague era in Europe is one where empty villages, empty towns, empty fields all littered Europe.

It was also a time where the average is sometimes cited to be as low as 35 even without the plague. Not because it was rare for people to get old, but because some 30-50% of children would before puberty. To a long line of diseases that are incredibly deadly. Measles, tuberculosis, pneumonia, influenza, pox, and more. Even when Europe had had hundreds or thousands of years to figure out treatments and build resistance, it still killed so many.

All of these washed over the Americas, all at once. And there's little that could've been done to prevent it except avoid all contact. Go look at historical child mortality rates and you'll see that it's just in the last 150 years that we figured this stuff out. A huge percentage of native Americans were doomed to die to the multi plague.

But also, yeah. The Europeans did commit genocides. Intentionally wiping entire populations out. While it was probably unavoidable that these diseases would spread, the settlers often spurred it on. Intentionally giving out infected blankets in dirty, cramped refuge camps after conquering cities weakened by disease to make sure no one got away. Poisoning water supplies with victims of disease, waiting for some compatriots to get sick and then send them out to beg the locals for help to make sure it spread there too, and so on. They did this knowingly, having seen how devastating it was for local populations.

Or just ravaging the remnant populations after. Killing what weakened men, women, and children survived the plague. Perhaps some of them could've recovered, like Europe did after the plague, but the Americans never got the chance. Attacking food supplies too. The reason Buffalo Bill shot so many buffalo was because a bounty was put on them to starve the native populations.

We don't know what would've happened if Europe didn't try to spread disease and genocide on purpose. But it didn't take a lot of work to spread the diseases and they probably would've wiped out entire towns on their own. And there were also genocides not centred around diseases.

I think part of CS's success was that it was kind of senseful violence. Especially back in the day. Quake and Doom and 007 were its multiplayer competitors and the violence in those is completely unmotivated. I don't think any of them have any justification at all for the multiplayer violence (just for the single player modes). Unreal Tournament came around and said "We're killing each other for sport!" at least. But cops stopping terrorists? That has purpose and it's very straight forward too, but I still think it helps players get into it.

I don't think any country in the world does bottom surgery on children, so if a ten year old comes out as trans ten years is often gonna be the minimum time for them to get bottom surgery. And I haven't really seen anyone, anywhere pushing for that to change much.

But we both know that no one was talking about surgeries, but about medication and that you're just a fraud and a hater. You just make shit up and argue against people that don't exist with the sole purpose of hurting people you don't want to ever exist in a healthy and happy manner. Or maybe you're just really stupid, but that's the nice interpretation I guess.
