New Shy Giant

[Hopper]

Welcome!

Almost like robbb I lose track after the T end of LGBT but I'd love to know more about Non-binary and what that involves. Likewise with BIID.

I'm not as familiar with the former as I should be and whilst I'm familiar with BIID I'm under the impression that it varies a lot between individuals.

What 'geeky' things are you into?

As an aside, I too draw the line at rainbow kilts or anything overt ( I like my men and my kilts rugged) like that but I admire your confidence all the same.

Stick around big fella.

thank you 
and its basically male female both and neither
(tbh id love for one day to rock a black/rainbow kilt (look it up its really cool ) with a black high heel

So it's everything and nothing. Does this depend on how you feel on the day or is it a case of being so rampant that anything will do?

I'll be honest that kilt thing is too overtly gay for me. Read some of my posts and you'll see I am just an ordinary guy who happens to be attracted to men, manly men at that. The whole thing of dressing a certain way, socialising a certain way, speaking a certain ways, walking a certain way is lifestyle choice to me, not homosexuality.

Each to their own though.

R.

i mean gendersteryotypes are that stereotypes
im still manly it just so happens i like fashion i want to build up a tool collection because i can also be a handyman around the house
but the kilt is to much?? its masculine as all hell to wear a kilt!! (scotsmen for the win!! ♥)
but just because someone likes high heels doesnt mean their flamboyant all the time.....some gays with the highest voice can drop it just as low and show off their manly side

but still respect to each their own

tbh the "rainbow kilt" is mostly black (the inner panels of the kilt are rainbow so when you walk you get a color here and there ) 
(just two comments on it was enough for more explanation :3)
and everything from music (old to j pop to remixes of old songs and old style covers of new songs look up "postmodern jukebox" love their version of "creep" <3 )
to games (ps4 switch 3DS (hacked 3:) and looking right at a 360 with no wires) 
anime and movies (picky about anime over the years seen some great ones and not so great ones) 
guilty please movie is and always will be white chicks XD (favorite movie might be pans labrynth or if im going for horror the autopsy of jane doe still makes me jump after watching it 4 times)  

and thanks

ALSO i dont blame you forgetting after the T but the key to everyone's respect is a open mind and acceptance of new terms 
im not even sure if i remember half of the other identities myself to be honest

Welcome, Skrappy . This seems like a great time and place to share the Genderbread Person. I think it's a good tool to help people understand the variety of human identity, expression, sex and attraction. I'm sharing a screenshot because the pdf showed up as a link and I wanted the picture to show. For those who are curious or confused, there's some good info on the website. I can share that it's been a bit of a privilege watching my closest trans friend explore genderfluidity more.

Good luck, K-14, in your explorations. I hope that you can find healthy ways to get your answers.

The kilt being mostly black works but one I saw online has a really rather rancid rainbow sporran which ruins the whole thing for me.

Familiar with PMJ but not even they could get me to listen to that song. 'Just' is a good one of Radiohead's though.

Even so you have a nice eclectic musical style, here that's always a plus.



Been meaning to get a Switch, Smash Bros, Crash (even though I have it on PS4, I'd love to play it out and about-within reason) and Cuphead already seal the deal.

Never seen White Chicks, but I probably will someday. Pan's Labyrinth is great though. Cerebral Palsy and jumpscares are not a good mix so I'll take a miss on the other horror you mentioned.

Oh, I have an open mind, but so many new terms and labels have come in over the past 5-10 years that it's nigh on impossible to keep up. Of course that's not to say I'm ignorant of these orientations, I just need a better memory.


ETA: Big thanks to you Inigo Montoya for that Gingerbread Person diagram, it's a help.

Welcome Skrappy!
Rainbow kilt and high heels sounds like a beautiful choice! Clothing should be one of the many paths to self expression and I love people who use it that way! I wish I were a little braver when it comes to outfits...

Also Inigo Montoya the Genderbread Man is the fictional cookie I didn’t know I needed in my life!

Welcome new giant Kosloski. I love clothes myself, went shopping yesterday! And I like horror movies too. Hope you enjoy yourself at PD.

white chicks is more horror than comedy depending on who you ask XDDDDDDD (its just that bad)
and no thats not a good mix D: 

and everyone could use a vocab and history lesson (EVERYONE... but theres a lot of terms to know i keep on finding new ones 
and my memory runs slower than internet explore XD

When I was 23, we were trying to remove all of these labels from one another. Flash forward a mere 20 years later and we’ve created a dozen labels just to say we are our gender at birth but don’t live up to it’s stereotypes 100%.... 🤷‍♀️

Anyway, welcome. As long as you’re a gay male dev that’s attracted to pwds, that’s the only labels you need to join in the convo. Can you elaborate on what your discovery is? Is it in relation to being a dev, or having BIID? I’m also a little confused- Do you have BIID, or do you have a medical reason to remove your toe/leg? Gigantism I’m sure can cause some pain, have you researched medical professionals who will work with you to amputate?

hell at 18 i was saying im just gay not trans not anything now my whole world is flipped XD 
and stereotypes are meant to be broken ♥ its how you find some of the best people  

and thank you!! 
and the discovery was that it was more common to want to have a limb removed and being attracted to men with disabilities 

and yes but not sure on all the details (details being if there anything wrong with my body besides just pain) but being tall always messed with my knees and ankles as well as having toe issues a lot growing up (at the point of just chopping off my big toe to feel release )

Again, I admire you being so colourful. I bought a black leather jacket the other day as a late birthday present and I've never felt more confident. Don't wear ir with much, just jeans, plain t-shirts, lightly patterned shirts and boots, boring but practical.

She DID have a good voice, still an awful song though.

Thing is I like the Wayans Brothers, but White Chicks just seems crass. Heck, even Little Man was somewhat watchable. Still, a guilty pleasure is a guilty pleasure. the notoriously bad Master Of Disguise bought me to near tears of laughter.

Yeah, startle reflex is common for folk with CP, but over the years I've learnt how to spot when one is coming most of the time, with films at least. 

I agree that these terms should be spoken about more but there is also the fact that sadly, some people's opinions cannot and will not be changed.

awesome!! need a leather jacket myself T_T 

and fair XD

little man is funny white chicks is BAD! but master of disguise will always scare me away XD

i mean i JUMP really bad at the smallest things sometimes (irl or in movies XD) but also learned when things will happen (doesnt help too much XD)

and i never expect everyone to change for a long while we will still have homophobes and racists sadly but all that changes with time and education  
but the terms are just that terms if people educate themselves great but LGBT base should be taught and supported  as well as kids being kids and open to exploring who they want to be :3

Welcome fellow trans dev.

As for some of you asking about non-binary identities, it describes everything in between and outside of the binary (100% male or female identifying... this includes cis people and binary trans people). It honestly doesn’t really tell you much because it varies so much from person to person. Technically, I fall on the non-binary spectrum as a transmasculine guy who is not 100% binary, but I don’t personally use the term because often people think it means 50/50 male/female and I don’t identify with being female at all. The best thing you can do, if you care about a person’s gender beyond just using preferred pronouns, is to ask them what their gender means to them and how they relate to gender.
