One of the hottest controversy of the month

Iโ€™ve seen this post a bunch and never once did I consider a scenario where it wasnโ€™t about a woman.

hey. Wanna hear something funny

HE IS A DUDE!

THE PLOT TWIST A LIFETIME

HE *DID* DO HER RIGHT!

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?

this fucking problem is how they caught the unabomber

hey you should uh. elaborate. for my own personal satisfaction

the unabomber was pedantic about idiomatic phrases like "have your cake and eat it too" and rephrased it to "eat your cake and have it too" (which to be very fair makes sense). fast forward to when he starts writing manifestos. he uses the phrase word for word in his pedantic style and his brother (who has been keeping his eyes on the unabomber shit for obvious reasons) notices the phrase and is like "oh fuck that's my fucking brother no one else fucking says that" and calls in an FBI tip

Well you can't deliberately speak in a way nobody else does and also stay anonymous you know. Can't eat your cake and have it too.

I understand more and more things about cisgender men the longer Iโ€™m on testosterone. I know why teenage boys use so much axe now. I understand the crying thing. I know why they accidentally break things. I know why they wear shorts in the snow. I know why so many of them donโ€™t use washcloths. I see everything.

Okay. Yโ€™all want explainations? Iโ€™ll tell you all the things.

  • Testosterone makes you warm. With young men especially it can actually get really uncomfortable while their testosterone levels are at their peak. Often times coats and winter pants will keep in all their heat and it gets uncomfortable. So it makes sense to pick a part of the body to be exposed to help them stay cool. The legs tend to be the least uncomfortable part of the body to feel cold on. The arms are uncomfortable, the face hurts when it gets cold, and the torso is where all the important stuff is. It doesnโ€™t actually hurt that much to have your lower legs exposed and thereโ€™s no important organs there so thatโ€™s what they go with to keep themselves from overheating in their winter jackets. Along this same vein, they might take their shirts off to jog or just have a naked torso in general during the summer because theyโ€™re in more danger of overheating than estrogen dominant people. Older men, children, and estrogen dominant people tend to do this stuff less because they have less testosterone and are therefore colder.
  • The axe thing is because of testosterone as well. Early on in puberty especially and into adulthood as well boys and men will stink no matter how hard they try. People often complain about how men donโ€™t shower enough and while there is some truth to that testosterone makes you sweaty and it makes your smell last longer. It doesnโ€™t smell worse than womenโ€™s BO, but it is harder to get rid of and easier to get. Before I started taking T I could get away with taking a shower every other day or even every three days. Now I have to take a shower every day. And some days when I shower, put on deodorant, put body spray on my clothes, avoid heavy physical activity, I still end up smelling awful. I just smell bad and thereโ€™s only so much I can do about it and that bottle of axe starts looking really tempting.
  • With crying? Testosterone just makes you cry less. You still feel all the same emotions. You just donโ€™t cry as much. Men are often socialized to not cry, yes, but even those who havenโ€™t been taught that still cry less. Thatโ€™s just how testosterone works. They hit puberty and then itโ€™s just harder to cry. It doesnโ€™t necessarily mean they feel less than estrogen dominant people or that theyโ€™re repressed. They just have a different physical reaction to emotion.
  • They accidentally break things because testosterone makes it easier to gain muscle. Sometimes you even do it without meaning to. I already accidentally grabbed or slammed things too hard. Now I have to consciously be gentle. Some people forget about being gentle for a split second. Then things break. Sometimes I look at my hands now like what the hell did I just do. Relearning how to know my own strength. Itโ€™s a learning process.
  • The thing where some men donโ€™t use washcloths and use their hands or a bar of soap instead isnโ€™t because theyโ€™re lazy. Itโ€™s because theyโ€™re covered in hair and the washcloth pulls at it. Itโ€™s really uncomfortable actually.

WOW THAT IS AWESOME INFO

This sounds like spiderman finding his superpowers

God, I love that comparison.

Op have you felt the urge to slap the top of the doorframe yet?

OKAY I REALLY WANNA KNOW THAT TOO WHY DO THEY DO THAT???

That one is to test how tall theyโ€™re getting. Men are on average six inches taller than women and itโ€™s fun when you get really tall and can reach stuff you never could before. Once theyโ€™re done growing itโ€™s either to demonstrate how tall they are to other people or just because itโ€™s fun. Jumping is fun and slapping the doorframe demonstrates both your height and how high you can jump, or if youโ€™re so tall you donโ€™t need to jump. Hitting stuff is fun too when nobody gets hurt from it. I did that even before I started T lol. I stopped growing before I started T but I still do it because itโ€™s fun. Itโ€™s just one of lifeโ€™s little joys. For a lot of people it also just becomes a habit. Like tapping on a desk when youโ€™re thinking or giving your friend a high five whenever you pass them.

wow I appreciate knowing this so much

Most people: โ€œHuh, looks like itโ€™s about impossible to guess the difference between biological and socialized gender behaviors. Letโ€™s just pick a few semi-plausible generalizations and shame everyone whoโ€“โ€

Trans people on hormone therapy, finally in a culture that sometimes lets them talk a little bit: โ€œOH HEY SO ITโ€™S STILL ALL SUBJECTIVE AND COMPLICATED, BUT WE HAVE SOME VERY PRECISE POINTS OF INFORMATION FOR YOU.โ€

Most people:ย โ€œOh shit thatโ€™s useful.โ€

the secret to life is always having something to look forward to

to anyone saying there's nothing to look forward to, I'm not saying it has to be anything spectacular or huge. it could just be a song or a book that will release in a few days, a tv show, anything!! no matter how small it seems it can keep us going

Quick! Put in the tags what youโ€™re looking forward to right now!

Iโ€™ll go first: Im gonna go out to try a new restaurant this week with a friend!!

So Much (for) Stardust is the eighth studio album by American rock band Fall Out Boy, released on March 24, 2023 on Fueled by Ramen and DCD2.

I love when band guys love each other so I made somethin about it :โ€™) emo is truly anything but a miserable genre
