"I support my friend identifying as a woman but not as a huge fucking nerd"

maybe she is just into having those german barmaid vibes

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's definitely not the vibes I get from Mildred

For a German barmaid? Gerta or Brunhilde maybe

For Mildred? Someone who dies alone and gets found weeks later after their cats have eaten their face

Brunhilde says valkyrie to me but Gerta definitely works. Mildred I think mousy librarian of indeterminate age with coke bottle glasses and clothes a couple generations out of fashion. Definitely a cat person though

i'm glad i had people in my life brave enough to say this to me when i was picking my new name. they were very right. people pick stupid names sometimes and you have to say something.

"I realized I'm transgender and am going to start transitioning too."

"That's great! I'm totally here for..."

"And I'm changing my name to Mildred!"

"...get out of my house."

When meemaw gives you mad mad gender envy

[–] batsforpeace@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

hm, is this like some liberal 'I support trans people BUT only with names that sound cool to me' performative type of logic?

oh ok got it, I thought this was someone raging online for real

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Mildred is just a bad name. That’s the joke

[–] batsforpeace@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

lol, 'hey you, I don't like your name!'

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

Forum arguments be like

[–] GreenTeaRedFlag@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

if it's genuine, I don't think it's transphobia. They'd probably react the same if someone changed their name but kept the gender

[–] batsforpeace@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

yep, I misunderstood the context in this one

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

This is why I gave the family a choice of two names xi-vote
