Emphasis on was.
You know kids don’t really have their sexuality developed, right? Right?
It takes some kids longer to figure things out than others, but if they're old enough to feel attraction to people then they have developed some amount of their sexuality.
“It’s unfair because girls are so much prettier than guys.”
Gay guys: O.o do your eyeballs just not work or what
Femboys are prettier than just boys.
Maybe I'm just attracted to guy software running on girl hardware 🤔
Aren't femboys the other way around?
Idk anymore. I use femboy to separate feminine looking cis guys from trans girls because I know so many that aren't trans. They still behave like and identify as boys; they just look and dress like girls. But I also see it used almost like a slur (since it's kind of misgendering) for trans girls, too.
I mean, I'm a gay guy, and is pretty much agree. "Pretty" is a pretty loaded term that almost by its nature implies femininity. Linguistics are weird, and while many things can be pretty, pretty and attractive aren't exact synonyms. I find men way more attractive, but there are far more women I would apply the term pretty to than are there men I would I would do the same.
Though, I wouldn't compare women to an old shoe, and frankly I'm offended by the little lesbian for besmirching my gender. We are not like old shoes!
What kind of shoes are men most similar to?
this is some Woke Shit but I like asking friends which of these adjectives they enjoy being called:
- cute
- pretty
- handsome
- hot
- beautiful
I over heard my friends saying that they think someone in our group is gay. I hope it's Tim. He's cute. 😉
can't help but notice this is the only entry on this page. and that all but one of the words are correctly spelled.
i'm calling untrustworthy poptarts on this one i'm sorry
This was written by a mid-twenties med student.
I'm inclined to agree. "It's like comparing a flower to an old shoe" is just a bit too witty for a little kid.
Did your elementary school not cover similes or something? It's not that witty
we don't know the authors age, I had recess up to the sixth grade and this would be well within my skill level at that age
My son's school has recess up to grade 7, but I think grade 5 would be a better guess for learning the meaning of the word lesbian and also the quality of the handwriting. This is also about the time I recall girls and boys starting to have crushes.
If we're judging by handwriting then I'm nearly 30 and my handwriting isn't much better. So I say the writer was clearly somewhere in their early 20s.
We don't know the author's gender.
"Journal", "it's", and "because" are all mispelled in the original.
Fake and gay?
Maybe fake, but definitely gay
- yeah, i think most people do a single entry per page, no matter the length. that's not uncommon for a journal
- none of these words are particularly complex
- the author's age is unknown
- i'd rather choose to take people at face value until given a reason otherwise
Not saying it's fake, but point 4 is a good way of spreading misinformation on the internet
You're absolutely correct there. My issue is that I feel like so many of us are almost giving in to the desires of those that spread misinformation, and becoming completely cynical towards anything that's shared online. A healthy amount of skepticism is required. Asking yourself "what does this person gain here if they're lying" and if that answer is "some notes on tumblr" then I'd personally rather choose to believe them. To instead get to have the positive feelings that post provides. Rather than dwell on it and believe that all of humanity are dishonest and disingenuous.
That's just my two cents.
This is really funny
And kinda sad.
