      As long as the pouch on the front isn’t too constricting for my male bits and there isn’t too much material and stitching in the seam underneath, I agree. Just like anything, gotta find the right fit.

        Butt ones as this isn’t Australia, lol. It wasn’t until I was older myself I realized that thong had a different meaning around the world. I remember as a kid taking trips to Australia people used to always call things “thongs” and thought anything of it. As a New Zealander they’ll always be Jandals to me.

      I’m a fat, unsexy dude, I bought a goofy leopard-print thong to get a laugh out of my life wife once

      It’s not my favorite pair of undies by a longshot, I still prefer my usual boxer-briefs, but it’s certainly not uncomfortable. Even wore it to my city’s naked bike ride to bike around in.

        Yeah sure dude, you totally did it cuz it was funny.

        Same here. There not my favourite but there not as bad as people make them out to be. I mostly wear them as men like them. I did a music video a few years back as a backup dancer and I woar one underneath some sweatpants. Maybe it’s because I have histrionic personality disorder but I like to look sexy. Not like a hooker or a stripper but more in a seductive way like a belly dancer or a show girl.

          Small typo in my comment, was supposed to say get a laugh out of my wife

          It served its intended purpose. It was for Valentines or our anniversary or something, so I was waiting in the bed for her to come home in my leopard thong, rose petals scattered around, and some funky 70s porno music playing, and she cracked the fuck up.

              Personally I’ve gone in on Hawaiian shirts, bit less good for a laugh, but still attention grabbing and easier to show off in public. No one wants to see my fat hairy ass sporting a whale tail.

                ¿Por qué no los dos?

                Just the same, the confidence to wear it in public is what really matters whether you still do or not. When you don’t give a shit, nothing can touch you. Total liberation. Except if there’s kids around. That just feels creepy lol.

        You can about geopolitics in a simplified and comedic way but there’s a limit. If I used sock puppets to explain the election to you wouldn’t you would think that I thought you were the stupidest person ever?

        It’s like, I’m an adult I can understand the concept of countries not liking each other without the need of simplistic cartoons. This is how you would explain geopolitics to a five-year-old.

          I’m American. Speaking about geopolitics at a five-year-old’s level is often far too advanced for many people. Sock puppets might help actually.

    My hill: Laws that give “unnecessary” rights to people are still good overall and shouldn’t ever, EVER, be reversed. Laws that give “unnecessary” rights keep society stable and have come from past times soaked in blood. If you reverse 60-100 years of these gains, then society will collapse.

        Sure. Some people think it’s not necessary to have local anti-discrimination laws against minority groups here. Some people think why should LGBTQ get married in a fucking church, can’t they just sign a paper saying legally they are as good as married without sullying the institution?

    Ok, I don’t like making generalizations, but let’s play the game:

    • Dynamically typed programming languages are for babies.

    • Having depression is not being sad. Having anxiety is not being nervous. Mental health exists and it’s very complex.

    • We should start trating unhealthy use of social media as an actual addiction, and the platforms should be held accountable for the damage they have and still are causing.

    • Sometimes older people have actual knowledge and wisdom that is only gained by experiencing life, and younger people shuld learn to shut the fuck up some times and stop pretending they were born knowing everything.

    • LTS Linux distros are not good for desktop usage and terrible for beginners. (And for servers too but a bit less ig).
    • The current distribution model of Linux apps is garbage. The concept of package maintainers, in most cases, is just redundant, duplicated work.
    • Bash is horrible and relying on it for anything else than personal scripts gets messy really fast.
    • Having a standard “platform” in Linux is key.
    • SystemD is actually good, not perfect but very powerful.
    • Apps not using Portals are a crime.

    1. The big hill in my neighborhood park.

    2. Capital Hill

    I don’t really know of any other hills or why I would be near them so if I die on a hill it will probably be one of these.

    It is possible to crossdress/be gender non-conforming without being trans

    I’ve never heard anyone suggest otherwise. Who are you having this argument with?

      I see the opinion that people presenting in a way that’s uncommon or “opposite” of their gender assigned at birth has to mean that they’re trans being made all the time, it’s so common that i doubt this comes from a single person they had an argument with.

      I was curious what they meant, too.

      I have wondered if there is some mixing of non-stereotypical gender roles and gender identity. Like, if someone who grew up in the 90s and identified as a “tomboy” might consider themselves transmale or transmasculine if they grew up in the 2020s. But I don’t know enough to make any assumptions about this. Also it’s none of my business, really. It probably depends on the individual and how they see themselves.

      (I do know JK Rowling has used a similar complaint in her TERFy ranting, which is why I tend to couch such curiosity in careful wording as best I am able.)

        It’s not unusual to say something less controversial than what you wish you could say, so it tracks that someone who wants to say “I’m a boy” would say “I’m a girl who isn’t girly” in a time where the truth is presented as less of an option than it is today. It’s not that trans guys and tomboys are the same thing, it’s that the same label can be either true or a euphemism when applied to different people.

        What gets me about the original post is it looks like it’s saying I as an unambiguously masculine man could wear a dress and be called ma’am by a stranger and when I respond “I get why you’d say that but I’m actually a man wearing a dress” then there’s an expectation the stranger might respond “don’t be ridiculous, that’s not a real thing. You’re obviously a trans woman.” I just don’t see this kind of scenario playing out.
