Going to see Finding Dory tomorrow with two friends and grabbing something to eat afterwards, one of them is a QT crush. How do I not fuck this up?
...how do you fuck up watching a movie?i don't know, but i'm sure you'll figure out a way
toast/envelope method
make sure to tell them all about your anime
We went to Epcot a few months back and they were cool stopping off at the Japan Pavilion so I could buy another Gundam model kit, and I've worn a Gundam shirt the last time I went with them somewhere, so it's not like they don't already know.

But do they know about the hentai and pillow?
it's almost like gender is a social construct to which we hold disproportionate value for the sake of tradition and antiquity GASP
But...gender has biological ties...Sex*
Quote from: BC on June 20, 2016, 11:51:24 PMBut...gender has biological ties...Sex*the entire point of the distinction between sex and gender is that the latter does not have biological ties
Ian if you're going to movies and dinner with TWO girls you've already fucked up
The reason I put sex* is because for some reason I forgot to just edit gender to sex and say nevermind.I find it much easier to refer to people as their sex.
Quote from: BC on June 20, 2016, 11:57:36 PMThe reason I put sex* is because for some reason I forgot to just edit gender to sex and say nevermind.I find it much easier to refer to people as their sex.in order to learn someone's sex, you must confirm whether they have a penis or a vagina--so, barring the potential for sexual harassment there, you would have to personally ask them for that information--which would seem rather obnoxious, wouldn't itpersonally, i find it easier to identify someone's gender identity by observing their gender signifiers--most people make it very clear whether they're a guy or a girl by using things like hair length, hair style, makeup, clothing, body shape, and body sizethese signify gender, not sex--so, i mean, you're kind of objectively wrong there, but all right sonny
What if believing you were a different gender than your biological sex was the real social construct
and that's why no boy dogs have ever said they were girls, only humans have
Quote from: Tyger on June 21, 2016, 12:02:33 AMWhat if believing you were a different gender than your biological sex was the real social constructthat would be exactly what i said, actuallyi mean, you literally repeated my exact point, and tried to make it sound like some kind of refutationyes, gender is a social construct--that means, some men can feel like women and women can feel like menit doesn't mean anythingQuoteand that's why no boy dogs have ever said they were girls, only humans haveprobably because dogs are simpler organisms who are incapable of forming words or doing math--let alone contemplating their identity and existence in the universeyou've merely pointed out that humans are indeed more complex than dogs are, and so, the possibility that a human being could grow uncomfortable in his or her own body seems not only plausible, but expected
this was not serious you stupid head
Meaning, "Are you male or female",
Quote from: BC on June 21, 2016, 12:10:27 AMMeaning, "Are you male or female", wow, so do you actually ask this to peopleif you get someone's gender wrong, most people are gonna say, "uhh, i'm a she" and then you'll be like "oh, i'm sorry"you don't have to ask people if they're male or female, that's weird as fuck
BC is oppressive cis scum
*sigh*, once again I wasn't saying that I literally ask that. I was clarifying.
And it's lunch, not dinner. Quote from: Tyger on June 21, 2016, 12:21:41 AM
oh no that's a bad sign
Quote from: BC on June 21, 2016, 12:24:43 AM*sigh*, once again I wasn't saying that I literally ask that. I was clarifying.it's not a great clarification if it just produces more questionsso, if someone who dresses, looks, and acts like a girl, you'd call them a girlbut as soon as you found out she had a penis--you'd call her a guylet's say you knew her for 20 years as a girl
Finally got off my ass and saw Zootopia
