the "it's just a phase" diagram

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This shit should be titled “it’s just a phase”

Your joke is funnier than the OP.

My dude you ought to steal this and add it to the chart and repost as your own.

when I thought of it, I thought to myself "this is either going to be massively misconstrued as me trying to be a dick to trans people, or I'm a comedy genius, lets find out", rad that it's the latter

sidebar: I also considered "I Can't Believe It's Not a Phase Diagram". so, whoever steals this next, you're welcome, not one but two good title ideas!

Pressure: pushing down on me, Pressing down on you, no man ask for, Under pressure that burns a building down, Splits a family in two, Puts people on streets

They say it gets hot between states.

If you crush me, then reheat me to just below my melting point, then quench me back then crush me some more, my microgender structure gets stretched and tensed with smaller and smaller grains. I become harder and harder until my yield strength is equal to my ultimate strength. Deep down I'm still the same alloy but heat treated.

Thanks! I just like the feeling of the microcrystalline structure solving and re condensing with new orientation that prevent my gender planes from dislocating on all sorts of cleavage directions.

Are you saying that under enough social pressure anyone will revert to the gender binary? (j/k)

[–] thisfro@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

No, hot people will be supercritical

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

So is gender fluid by definition sub critical gender or am I missing something (yes I know I'm missing something but I'm not telling you what)

[–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Gender Fluid? You mean like the kind you clean up with a mop and bucket?

[–] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

The kind you get when you get them to the right temperature and pressure.

[–] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 42 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The moral of the story is don’t put someone under too much pressure or get them too heated, otherwise they’ll go gender critical.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Well normally it'll get gender fluid all over the place but if you do it right they'll go gender critical and get gender all over the place. That's how we got the month of June.

[–] leisesprecher@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That is ...

Surprisingly deep.

[–] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 9 points 1 month ago

Nah, just math. Look at the graph!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 1 month ago

Be pansexual; it's a gas!

[–] Vytle@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The "Gender Gas" joke has always bothered me for no reason other than because gas IS a fucking fluid.

[–] Comptero@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Both gender gas and gender liquid are gender fluid

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Looks like you cracked your phone screen.

[–] marte@lemmy.eco.br 6 points 1 month ago

I'm at the triple point

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 month ago

Ok so... what exactly would the gender triple point be?

... A person at their first rave, first time doing molly or E?
