My best guess is that he wanted to say "look how they're being treated" but forgot what he was talking about mid-sentence and opted for "anyway"

Does Lemmy even track karma? I don't think so

absolutely cat-trans

cw: some self-loathing and maybe internalized transphobia depending on your viewpointHonestly, I do often wish I had just been born differently and didn't have to go through so much effort just to feel like myself. I'm glad there are so many people here who love being trans, but while I don't feel any shame about it and it's definitely part of my identity, I don't think I could ever say I prefer living this way. I don't know if that's how you feel, but I wanted to get it out there, because while the positivity here is mostly a good thing, I feel like it gets to be too much sometimes

I hope you at least keep using other parts of the site even if you don't want to use the mega anymore.

I think the fact that people here will insinuate you're phrenology-adjacent just for acknowledging cis women generally look like women is pretty unreasonable. This place is still a step up from 4chan though, so consider not going back there

what is the innate womanness that cis women have which allows them to just WAKE UP THAT WAY that rans women do not?

There is no such thing as "innate womanness," but obviously very few cis women put effort into appearing female. That is simply how their bodies and mannerisms will be viewed by others by in their default state. It's correct to say that most cis women have to put effort into appearances, but the vast majority of those that don't will still be seen as female 99% of the time. You're trying to convince her that there's an equivalency between this and what she experiences when there's not. Cis women don't put effort into "being girls," which is what her comment was about.

She said that her sisters still effortlessly pass as women after waking up, which is obviously correct, and someone said this was "a couple steps away from doing phrenology," which is absolutely absurd. It's not a fair comparison at all, and she was at least more correct to recognize this than to think that she's seen the same way as her sisters

just say the same thing over and over

Is something less true if it's repeated? I don't understand your point. I don't even think she was being particularly repetitive either

you were clearly correct. I think people here just have very different worms than you do
