Well tbh you'll never be a girl
well yeah, but I know that I won't/can't be
Why the hell not? If I can transition then hell yes you can. You look so much better than me already.
Nono, it's that no one can just become a boy or a girl biologically
The fact that I've been on both sides, essentially, and have seen the actual, noticeable changes in my mood and judgment, leads me to believe that yes, I am a woman.
No, no you have not.
That is 100% placebic.
Anti-androgens work very slowly, and will take several weeks, two in the very least (and then only if you weight like 100lbs) to even begin to suppress testosterone production.
Your brain chemistry hasn't changed just because there's estrogen in there either. It isn't some kind of hard drug that you can feel hit you in a couple of hours, it will take around a week, maybe more for the increased levels to have any effect on your body whatsoever.
It will probably take three months, not three days for your brain to reflect female-like neurological patterns.
Don't get too excited and trick yourself into thinking that you're suddenly a different person because you've got these drugs.
First of all, I immediately did double what my prescription said to do, because doctors will always start you off on the lowest possible dose for liability reasons. I know my body, and I know how big I am, so I'm running two patches and two pills per morning.
And oh damn man, you can't possibly imagine how different I feel. You aren't even on HRT so please don't tell me I can't feel them effects.
It does take longer than a few days. I felt a difference probably 1.5 to 2 weeks in. Itβs probably placebo if itβs been a few days.
hmm maybe you're right, but all bodies are different - people on reddit say dissimilar things and I legit have not been as angry. And as of today, it's been 5 days.

When you use this word, you're just assigning an irrelevant label to another word. So you're saying I'll never be the label of a girl. I'll never be the literal label sticker on her shirt, no - but I'll feel like one, act as one, and be treated like one. Of course we can't have all the advantages cis girls have, but we can still forget the biological aspect and just see each other as a mind not a body. People are so vain and I think the shame of not passing deals with the loss of your dignity, but it's all just pure luck whether you pass or not. But that's the thing. All of that comes from society, not from biology. You feel and know you're a girl from the simple fact that your entire viewbox has shifted. Not so angry, or quick to get aggravated. I feel more alert, yet calmer. The fact that I've been on both sides, essentially, and have seen the actual, noticeable changes in my mood and judgment, leads me to believe that yes, I am a woman.

Wait, you've been taking estradiol?
Yeah?

People called me a trender and that I'm not even trans or that I'm AGP for so long, and now when I get on hormones, those aggressive faces turned into friendly ones. It's sick seeing people questioning the legitimacy of a person's "transness" (way out of my element here so bare with me) based on whether or not their current social and/or financial status allows them to take HRT. So much toxicity within trans groups is all I can say. You'd think it would be like, we're all in the same boat, but no. It's just funny that I've now joined this secret club/clique, and fucked up as well.

Aw thank you for the support! I take selfies a lot so this shouldn't be a problem. Oh you're on Spiro, too?

I think he made two excellent points.
I refuted his first point, and instead of continuing on, he just changed the subject.

this made me SO hyped for the game when I first saw it, and I was disappointed because I was poor as hell and had no system to play it on well now I have like 200+ hours in the game collectively (first PS4 a few years ago, and my new PS4 now), and going back to this trailer it makes me want to play all over again even though I'm at the end of New Game+ and really need to get on with playing Death of the Outsider dont move this to gaming, and I'll tell you why: my next line in which I make this a non-gaming related thread What trailers, can be game, show, movie, w/e, get you pumped up as hell?

But these flaws just make us love the character more.
nope
it seems to me that you just like shit characters
LOL dude, I'm far from alone in loving these people. You just have the bleakest outlook in the world, and it certainly extends to how you feel about fictional worlds and the characters within them.

note that one part:
normally, well-written character flaws are supposed to make you like the character less for the purpose of the narrative, or at the very least, hope that they improve themselves over the course of the story
This isn't even true. Maybe if the character is a heel - which Azula isn't. You're never supposed to think she's a monster, by the way - she's a fucking child; it's clear from like 7 episodes into season 2 that she's only this way because her father was the only one in her life who cared about her (in a utilitarian way, sure, but how is an 11 year old supposed to know that?) She was never a candidate for Iroh's tutelage or even for her mother's care and support. Again, all of this didn't come from some late season 3 episode - it came nearly as soon as her character was introduced. But going back to this "flaws are supposed to make us dislike the character" nonsense, how much can you possibly miss the idea of likeable flaws? That's not bad writing - it's good writing. Britta Perry is the worst ever, and constantly says dumb things that come from the heart. Still, her flaws are numerous and people are quick to point that out. Does that mean that we, the viewers, are turned off by those flaws? Absolutely not! They endear us to her even more. Britta can't be a mary sue, because she's not supposed to be "cool", she's supposed to be the opposite. Yet, she still has leagues of fans and tons of intellectual discussion about her. But Britta is a hero. What about someone like Aku, a villain? Well, his flaws are literally the essence of his character. He's not just pure evil in some wordy 3rd grader understanding of "good and bad". He's pure "evil" (toxic) in terms of his actual personality traits. His braggadocio, pettiness, smugness, narcissism, and straight-up rudeness are all embedded character traits, and he has those traits because of his very nature (a big black evil mass). But these flaws just make us love the character more. They don't make us dislike him and aren't in service to a larger arc where we like him more when he overcomes those flaws. He never overcomes them, and he has the flaws throughout the entire series. But like I said, that's why he has fans and why he's such an endearing, funny character. EDIT: Didn't see you edited your post to include villains, actually - but my point still stands.

There's no set definition for this type of character,
i was always well-aware of this, and i thought that you were tooβthe whole idea is that i think my definition is better than yours, because it's much broader and captures the essence of the common tendency for writers to want to write "perfect" characters, whether it be a weak attempt at inserting a projection of themselves into the narrative, or a projection of their innate desire to write a perfect character that everyone will think is cool (which is where azula lies)
you can like her all you want, but your overzealous appreciation comes across to me as shallow fetishization more than anything else, which has always been extremely off-putting
Azula is cool, though. And Verbatim, I'm overzealous about literally everything. Maybe someday you'll realize I don't fetishize Azula any more than I fetishize Britta Perry, Dale Cooper, Stanley Pines, Diana Lombard, Clover, Emily Kaldwin, Colonel Moore, or any other amazing character that I'm obsessed with. You only have the idea I do it with Azula because I did unironically have a crush on her as a child, and it was probably she who awoke the BDSM/sub tendencies in me and my desire to serve a strong person. Put those healthy mental developments the character helped me with aside, and she's no different than any other character I like for actual characterization reasons.

https://youtu.be/hAiySOONc2I?t=711:11 - 1:36 is the part I'm referring to - just listen to her monotonous, joyless, hateful tone, but clearly trying to grasp something greater than that. (Next part is more of a writing thing) Mandy's character in this episode is just so good. From her first interaction with Grim & Billy, where she asks something seemingly very OOC, it's so heartbreaking to see her struggle with her own identity and try to progress herself as a person. "Birds fly, over the rainbow. Why then, oh why...can't...I?"It's part of the song, but from her inflection, you know she's literally asking this question out to the abyss - it's not fair that she has to be this way, in other words. And she indeed does have to be that way - when she drops the negativity at the end of the episode, reality itself gets torn apart. Pretty goddamn tragic and poignant for an irreverent horror comedy, and that tragedy wouldn't be nearly as illustrated without GDL's acting.

the true definition of a mary sue is an author insert nope
sometimes it's a manifestation of a writer's desire to create the coolest possible character
which is why it backfires so hard and so often when writers write like this
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MarySueFun fact: We're actually both right. There's no set definition for this type of character, though I've always heard it referred to as an author insert.  HOWEVER: So my perception of what the character is isn't baseless, anyway.

No offense but this is why I have very little to 0 sympathy for the homeless drugged out disassociated weirdos I see on the streets or in SF or something. We got to watch your descent firsthand pretty interesting
No offense but you're just as gross as Carmen.
how am I gross
I'm saying he's "gross" the in the same way he considers you to be gross. There are things you've done here I don't approve of that I could describe as gross (working high, stealing, b & e), but I would sooner just say "disapprove."
My problem with Jive's post is that he's trying to shame you for sucking dick... while he relentlessly talks about his sex life and posts grotesque photos of his last conquest's dismembered vulva. As if he isn't a slut. Then he tries to look down on drug users as if he isn't a junkie, too. And he does all this to fuel a superiority complex and justify looking down on people he doesn't even know. He's in no position to say anything.
thanks for actually using my name tho
Of course  Although admittedly I still call you Class sometimes out of habit.
Yeah except I didnβt say anything, let alone care, about him sucking dick lol. Iβm unsympathetic because he is just clearly a trashy person who is completely delusional about a ton of things, homeless druggies being his friend for one. Wonβt listen to a single person here giving advice that would improve his wellbeing(far too late for that anyways). Shows up to work intoxicated(trash) steals from stores(trash), interacts with family and younger impressionable siblings while strung out on drugs(trash). Iβm sure similarities of Carmens mindset are shared among a huge majority of the trashy homeless druggies that arenβt making attempts to get better.
And also, Iβve never posted any naked women on here(much respect to the ladies), have been in a committed relationship for months now, and donβt do any drugs except some social alcohol maybe twice a month and the occasional tab of acid twice a year. So my superiority over Carmen is highly justified if you ask me, Iβm on a much higher ground in every aspect
Your "advice" is shit like "stop doing DXM you piece of trash", and yes when you approach me that way I'm probably going to ignore you. No, I don't judge ANYONE - a homeless man is just as much of valid person as a rich CEO. John (name of the one I'm familiar with) is doubtlessly a better person than you. Your entire life is made of judgment. My life, on the other hand, is fine. I'm getting a Starbucks job soon (getting that trans insurance) and I'm literally starting hormones this week when they call me. I waited at Minnie Jones for about 3 hours this morning (it's my third appointment with them), and signed a bunch of consent forms. Pretty positive outlook for my life. I've told my clinician about my DXM habits, by the way, and he was far from concerned. He asked if it helps me with my dysphoria and upon my affirmation of that, added it to my list of medications that I'm on, along with marijuana. Not everyone, even in the medical industry, is as close-minded as the people on this forum. I'm stopping cigarettes altogether because with estrogen, there's a huge risk of blood complications if I were to continue. Please don't pretend I don't improve myself every day just because you enjoy a different lifestyle than me. I finally went to the eye doctor and got contacts, so now I can finally see more than a foot in front of me! Also I've been keeping up a journal which is helpful. I haven't done DXM in like 6 days but got some today, which is awesome. No weed to go with it but oh well!

Bro that's all such bullshit, you have no idea what a mary sue is. Being perfect is a symptom of a mary sue and not the definition of one, sure, and that's because the true definition of a mary sue is an author insert. It's who the author wishes they could be, so they insert them into the story with no flaws and where everyone loves them, and where any flaws are good, reasonable flaws.
Azula is none of that, and HOLY SHIT did you seriously just insult GDL's master-class voice acting? She was the only one in the audition booth who actually voiced Azula with a clear, crisp delivery instead of the cliche evil villain hammy delivery. You're delusional.
