How to gain and lose a friend in 2 weeks.

[Violet]

Vaeolet: I would say you missed the point but that's kind of like saying the Holocaust caused some grief; indescribable level of understatement. XD Not only did you take what I said to the extremes of literal, you also have said something that you've mentioned in like six different threads that I can recall off the top of my head.

I repeat all sorts of gibberish

* Violet doesn't think she missed the point... she thinks that she was simply more creative with it than you.

I'm probably going to lose respect for saying this because if you don't know me you'll read it in the voice of someone who is trying to crush someone under his boot while saying it [try amused exasperation instead, that's far more accurate] but I am not one known for holding back on what I have to say:

Then I'll read it in Morgan Freeman's voice, and make it simply epic

You're pre-op, you talk about it all the time. I'm a guy; I think this might be like the first time I've actually pointed that out in any real context. We get it. You're a woman in a guy's body, and you're getting a sex change; I get it, you don't need to bring it up in every. single. thread, alright? Don't get me wrong, I like your personality, you're delightfully cheerful and have a wonderful sense of humor, and whatever you want to do with your body is not going to affect me one way or another...unless you weaponize it in which case I will be the first to ask for specs so I can do the exact same thing.

Oh, knowing me: the moment I have my vagina I won't be shutting up about it for 3 years. Probably more. Actually, I might never shut up about how wonderful it is to have an enchanted vagina.

I simply find the humor in my being pre-op. It so happens that it was relevant in this thread (you telling me that most women can't get laid without work, me countering that with something that should be a *major* aside beneath your reasoning).

Also: it isn't a sex change. There is currently no way to change someone's Y chromosome into an X chromosome. It also is not a gender change, for gender was already there. It is cosmetic surgery.

I don't care that you're getting a sex change. You could tell me once you're pre-op, soon to be post-op, and leave it at that, and my perception of you would not change. But I don't need to be reminded of it every single time. I don't need to know of your sexual exploits.

I do need to remind some people of it every time. There is no excuse for 6 years of very open, informative, clear communication that I'm a girl... and no change. Don't worry, i overuse everything in phases: I'll stop saying anything about being trans for months and suddenly pick up again some other time. Maybe not even that much.

And I don't tell of my sexual exploits on a need to know basis... I freely share it. Someday, some poor human will read something I wrote, and their sex life will improve dramatically.

Unless it involved tentacles...

I don't need to know that you think all men are dumb muscle.

This was my ribbing response to you stating that all women were bad for innovation

This is a gentle request: Please stop bringing it up. It's like the gay people who are not content with being gay; the ones who feel the need to remind me every ten minutes. You need prove NOTHING to me; my opinion of you is happily neutral; your choices are your own! I am not going to judge you for those choices. Ok? You need not assert yourself, you need not work for my tolerance and acceptance because I already both tolerate AND accept you.

Please stop making transsexual jokes? 0.o That's like asking Minimalist to stop making theist jokes. I post a lot, I sometimes post what's on my mind (or my mind)... you can remember *6* times when I've referred to transsexuality, and you bitch about it? Does this mean I get to bitch about all you wankers about your atheism? I don't care, and yet you make post after post about it every day. Do I complain? Rarely, and when I do it's tongue in cheek.

* Violet thinks you need to grasp some perspective.

You say that your genderal issues are the forefront struggle of your life; if nothing else, it need not be the case here. I cannot help but labor under the intense suspicion that nobody here looks down on you for it. Well. Except the theists, but they can eat my ass, anyway...

Case in point

Again, I'm trans and transsexuality is funny. One day I'll be able to walk up to a plastic surgeon and ask for a 'vagina job' right alongside my 'nose job'

You lot struggle with (a)theism... I struggle with being trans. Even with the entire support of the whole world, being trans will still be a struggle. If you want me to stop posting *anything* about being trans... you all must at the same time stop posting *anything* about (a)theism. Wouldn't want a double standard here, I'd have to stop coming.

There, I just...felt that needed to be said. Please don't be mad.

Please don't be mad? I'm being firm, not mad

Now, if you would like, I can write out an explanatory post that removes all elements of rhetoric and exaggeration, but I assure you; it will be a very boring post.

You can do that if you like... just remember that blankets are for cuddling: not for judgement.
