Wait, I'm genuinely asking, is this hard to do? I've been able to do this since I was a kid

i WISH. It's 10%, we get these posts every couple months. It's honestly really good; there was more flavors in Japan, but most Japanese stores in my area carry these.

But what if Ninja got a low taper fade...

My wife used to be on Implanon (now Nexplanon) and she basically didn't have a period for like 3 years. I think the new dose has protection for 5 years (it's primarily a birth control that they implant into your arm)

It's a Japanese alcoholic drink. Very tasty

Reminder that we have our email 196mods@protonmail.com

Important tool for those who have been banned and feel it undeserved, etc. While it's awesome that we have a small active community to double check the mod log and post any oddities right now, this may not always be the case. Hierarchies are wack and knowing the tools to hold people accountable is always a good thing. I do occasionally go back and check on our sent folder to see if anyone is being treated unfairly (which to be clear I haven't seen anything on the email side).

Thanks for the post ✌️

Won't hold up in court, but more importantly, don't order from them because of the free meals they're giving to people committing genocide.

Even if they are so worried about chromosomes, the existence of intersex people completely voids the binary. They don't care about reality, they just want to back up their shitty position

"lame" isn't super appreciated here. At best it's a homophone of a word that is ableist. At worst, people are actively being ableist. You never know with the internet, we have a ton of extremely problematic people pop in and use words that mean the second option. There's just better ways to express disbelief or calling someone socially inept.

But yeah, prude.

Hey, I'd rather ask than downright just take down the post. There's been some reports that this should have been marked as NSFW. Can you remove and repost as NSFW please? It's funny but showing this is in a work setting could result in a sexual harassment case.

I know people have ideas of what NSFW entails (I got yelled at on reddit a few years ago for saying Aphrodite in Hades is NSFW) but if it's not something you would feel comfortable showing a kid, it's most likely NSFW.

Hey a random use for my degree.

Gender is based on how you feel about yourself, obviously different than sex, which is based on your chromosomes. Each culture has a different idea of what gender means. For example, the US is a mostly patriarchal culture, meaning men are mostly in charge with some exceptions (this is SLOWLY changing to a more equal culture) compared to a matriarchical culture where women are mostly in charge with some exceptions. This puts pressure on people for how men and women are expected to act.

Gender performativity is how you perform your gender. I don't want to assume your gender, so just think about the things you do to feel more like your gender. For some men, this is buying a muscle car or BBQing or going to the gym. These are stereotypes of masculinity, but they show how men purposely try to perform gender. For men who don't do these things, they're called girly or feminine.

(bonus lesson) -Rhetorical questions- What does this say about American culture? If not performing the "man" gender results in being calling a different gender, what's wrong with that? Why is being called girly or feminine considered a bad thing? The US spotlights masculine identities without spotlighting the gender itself, therefore making feminine traits less desirable without explicity saying so. The US have moved away from overt misogyny into subtle misogyny in order to appear more equal. It gives plausible deniability.

The meme specifically is referring to how much harder trans people have to "perform" their gender compared to people who were assigned their gender at birth.
