I think what they are saying is that they are concerned with what other people think about it. If they wanted to know what we pontificate that God would think about it, they'd take it to G&A.

many, many monogamous couples break up because one of them wants to F other people. what you're suggesting is that the reverse is never, ever true for poly couples. see how absurd that sounds?
...you do realize that what you were insinuating is that it always, always has at least *something* to do with poly couples. You are taking your own absurd statement and flipping it around on me. What even is going on in this thread anymore.

We're not all special snowflakes, but we're not all the same either. There are no absolutes when it comes to relationships, or how such actions are perceived in a relationship. Whether you are monogamous, poly, somewhere in between, asexual, or some weird option that Tumblr hasn't made up yet. That's all I'm trying to say.

nowhere did i say anything about always. again you're putting words in my mouth
You made multiple posts saying that their relationship being poly had *something* to do with why they broke up, despite them telling you repeatedly that it had nothing to do with it. If you weren't insinuating that poly relationships breaking up has at least something to do with one of them is sleeping around on the other, what were you insinuating?

I'm not trying to put words in my mouth, but when you say things like...

quote:
amazing that you and your ex didn't make it considering how healthy and normal your arrangement was
...it strongly insinuates that you believe certain things to be true about poly relationships.

I'm not trying to be defensive, or obtuse. I don't understand what you are saying.

Like I said, Ag_of_08 has more authority to debate their relationship than I do; maybe they don't care to. I'll stop trying to do it for them. I'll still read whatever you have to say on the subject, however.

Please put trigger warnings around such macroaggressions in the future. Thank you.

Only if you are a woman and it can be open. Also, we need to set some boundaries.

My boundaries are: lock the door as you leave. No staysies.

I was once in an open relationship that ended poorly. Mainly because my girlfriend failed to inform me that it was an open relationship until I found out she was screwing around on me.

Damn some of y'all are judgemental *******s.

I'm trans, don't give a **** if you consider me female or not. Not having that argument AGAIN, think most of you are just jealous I have bigger tits than some of your wives....

I only date women. Dating in the tg world is complicated, and I got lonely and frustrated enough to date a guy. I settled because neither of us had much interest in sex, and we honestly made good friends.

I broke it n off because he was a hoarding slob, with absolutely no respect for anyone when it came to that, coupled with the fact I DON'T LIKE DUDES. I ended it, amicably, without a huge fight, and we still are very good friends.

We had ONE mutual friend that we BOTH where with on occassion. She is still good friends with us, hell we still go do things together. She had NOTHING to do with the break up, if anything she fought to see it not happen!

So yeah, take your opinion, roll it into a tight little ball, and shove it. Whole bunch of people on here passing judgement on a set of lifestyles they now less about than I do quantum mechanics.

Ok. I'm slightly less lost. You were born a male, but self identify as a female and have boobs now. But you sexually prefer women.

I suppose it would be hard to find a partner that is compatible.

No self identifying to it, have plenty of official identification for that.

Does the 08 in your handle refer to your class year? Or number of genders you are?

I'm sure your fellow tg appreciate you taking such an understanding and patient approach to education. I'm sure your demeanor really advances your cause.

Oh don't start that **** with me. You've been around enough to know I've taken VERY great steps to be an open book, to explain things, have taken some serious BS from people trying to be a good ambassador for the whole community. Don't even try to play that card, it doesn't fly with me.

Just saying that you KNOW it's a difficult subject for a lot of people. You know that by being open about it you're going to be the only trans person a lot of posters have contact with. So, the best approach is probably not being belligerent about it. There's no way you believe that posters who question you are jealous of your breast size. You're just antagonizing them.

If I posted your post, but replaced all the transy stuff with Jesusy stuff, how would you view that post and its author? Would you look favorably on a poster defending his faith by saying "you haters are just jealous of my salvation" or whatever? I doubt it.

That's honest advice, fwiw.

99.9% of the people on this thread are already familiar with me, and I have been very patient all the way up until that point when a group of posters decided to prod a little farther than I was interested in being prodded . I'm sorry that every post I make is not a poignant example of class and sophistication, but believe it or not, I'm a human being.... I'm allowed to get testy and go off.


Aside from you comparing salvation to the size of breasts, I'd say you sound like half the christians I know anytime someone tells them they don't have a "right" to judge others and rule their lives according to their moral system.

I have said nothing against you. There's no reason to be so defensive.

Not trying to be, just explaining my point. I've gone a LONG way, a LOT of times, up to and including being harassed by a couple of posters here, to do exactly what you're talking about. If this was the politics or OB, I would not have spouted off in a smart ass way like that.


I get what you where driving at, I just don't feel guilty not being the paragon of trans women this time.
