I think anyone conforming to a strict rigid archetype of manliness is going to wonder secretly about the other world.

I'm not sure if it makes them eggs. I think once they stop caring about it, the stress of their place in the world will wash away, and they can just be themselves (average dude with some girly interests) and actually relax into their masculinity instead of reaching always for an impossible archetype

There's "secretly wondering about the other world" and "he hates looking male, growing body hair" ...

[-] tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

"hates looking male" part I take as extrapolation of not liking archetypical male presentation trends (body hair, short haircuts, moustaches) which I can relate to since I too wish I was smooth

But fair do's if he actually said that

Extremely cis things to say to a trans person while drunk and looking like you're on the brink of tears: "look, what you're doing takes a lot of courage, but for me it's just ... not an option ... I have a wife, I'd have to tell my parents ... yknow ... its just ... not worth the effort, I can put up with it"

For what it's worth, I'm personally more on the (mostly closeted) gender non-conforming side of things, so I totally get where you're coming from.

Though yeah, this IS a 4chan post - about equal odds that it's just creative writing.

100% this.

The question one asks one's self shouldn't be "am I manly enough?"

It should be "what kind of man do I want to be?"

Do you want your body to look a certain way? Then work towards it though diet, exercise, or gender affirming care (everything from hair loss treatment, hair removal, weight loss surgery, hormones etc.)

What style of clothes make you feel comfortable and confident? Wear them.

What attitude and personality feels being true to yourself and how you want to treat others? Work on those behaviours through small actions you can take every day.

What kind of people do you want to be surrounded by and emulate? Find those people and hang out with them.

Introspection is one of the hardest things individuals can do, it's work, it can be a big project.

But getting an idea of the identity you feel would be the best version of the person you want to be is the first step.

The next step is to ask the question "what would a person who _______ do?"

Then make a note of the actions you are about to take and ask "Would a ______ person do that?"

Every action you take that the ideal person who fits that identity would take is a vote for you being that person.

Keep it up sustainably and before you even realise it, you'll become that person.

WTF does "I'm a Jeep" mean?

First time I’ve heard someone say it but I speak 4chan vernacular so: “a jeep” -> AGP, “autogynophile”, an ironic way of describing (and delegitimizing) trans lesbians dating back to some shitbag psychiatrist who described trans people as self-fetishists

IDK whether that's true or not, but sounds plausible.

It's new to me, but there's a meme about every lesbian wanting a jeep, so maybe this is just metonymy for, "I'm a lesbian"?

I'll need a translation for all the non normie terms of this, please and thank you.

Best that I've seen, it seems obscure on Urban Dictionary too, though note the down votes on the post:

This is sad. At least he should try crossdressing and not give up because hormones seem too far fetched.
