being genderfluid ain't easy
one moment you're like " **** yeah I got a beard and I'm so manly I'm gonna go work out"
then your're like "i wanna wear my cute socks and put nail polish on and shave everywhere"
and then you go back to square one and you're pissed as **** that your beard is gone
it's not fun at all

Aren't you the least bit concerned that if you don't ever accept other people's viewpoints as valid(whether or not you believe them is irrelevant, you don't have to agree, but you should listen), you'll never make any friends, then die scared, tired, and alone?
Because I don't agree with a lot of my friends a lot of the time for a lot of reasons. I learn from them, they learn from me. I know that on funnyjunk a lot of people just hate genfluid people with a passion, but when you act like this- blocking everyone with a different opinion to preserve your safe space- aren't you justifying their hatred?

I'm so, so, sorry in advance for what is about to happen. Trolls are going to come into the thread and they will be saying some very hurtful things about you. They will call you some very hurtful names. But none of those things are true. How could they possibly know? How could they possibly know how beautiful you really are? How sweet and compassionate you are? I'm so sorry about them, please do not let them hurt you.
mfw thinking about you hurting
I just want to see you shine and flourish. You are so precious to me. I want to write poetry and sing songs about my love and adoration for you and all of your perfections. My name is Brian, by the way. I know that you're tired of all the assholes and jerks. I know how you feel baby doll. I know. I am different. I am the nicest guy you will ever meet, and if anything I'll be the one in the kitchen. I live in London. Please be in London.

dear god i hope this is some god-tier level copypasta trolling, or else, dear god, this is the biggest white knight on funnyjunk
Genderfluid isn't a thing. You're just a guy with feminine tendencies. Which is completely normal.
Why tack a bunch of labels onto yourself if it's not for attention?

Then it's best to avoid words with connotations that convey an unwanted meaning, because other people's impressions of what you say is just as important as the literal meaning of what you say.

I agree with you. "Gender-fluid" is actually a pretty solid way to describe yourself having both masculine and feminine tendencies.
It's easier to say you're "genderfluid" when you like both masculine and feminine-stereotyped things than to say that whole ******* mouthful. It's the people that don't know the difference between that and being a special snowflake that ruins things for many and leads to the FJ-mentality on the subject.
On one hand, yes I'm speaking from experience - I'm not a special snowflake as a lot like to say, just what I described, and on the other? Damn I'm sick of these toasterselfs ******* things up for someone even remotely outside 'standard'.

Or, you know, you could just call yourself a man and tell other people to **** off when they criticize the feminine things you do.
The whole thing at least for myself, is that one is a sex (I am male) and one is an expression, I suppose almost like a cultur in the way that one generally gets an idea of what someone likes if I say "I'm a metalhead" or "I like punk music". These make you (or most) people think of certain things like music, hairstyles, etc, right? This is how I use genderfluid. It's much easier until you run into someone stubborn and rude because of how breadselfs have destroyed the label.
Oh and yes, it's a label. So aren't metalhead and punk. People need to get over that word/definition being ruined by those types too. If it doesn't stop now they'll subvert the entire ******* English language.

I could respectfully comment in support of you, but I'm not a liar.
I could respectfully criticize what I see as a fundamental, and easily rectifiable, misunderstanding of human nature, gender, sex, and psychology, but that would take time and apparently would simply get me blocked, not result in an interesting and rational discussion.
Or I could just call you faggot, still get blocked, but not waste my time. Plus, I'd get my jollies.
Faggot. This is Funnyjunk. It's for people with enough IQ points to do things like go to universities, code, and understand science, and enough of a backbone to accept comments that disagree with them, even on a fundamental level, without just blocking out everything that we don't like. I may hate vegans with a passion, but unless it gets to the point that they're sending me aggressive messages in my PM folder and chat box, I won't block them. I don't block anybody. Grow up you retarded, self-obsessed, spineless crybaby.

One question about genderfluid.
Who do you want to **** ?
Like
When you a dude do you want women, and when you're a woman you want men?
Which will make having a relationship really really hard.
Or like
Gay guy and straight girl or visa versa.
If what I just mentioned (Gay guy)
Why not just be a trap, something really feminine, but still a male.
Best of both worlds, no?

I am always attracted to the same things, but the way I feel is what changes, it's like. You know how one day you wanna go with one pair of shoes you have and the other day you wanna go with another? Same principle but more drastic. Everything else is the same.
I like a lot of stuff and I have a lot of fetishes but they are for the most part, unrelated to this issue of mine.

I have faced temporarily that dilemma.
I figured that I would just look as androgynous as I could
So one day I can wear cute clothes, and the other day wear manly stuff.
I own both baggy pants and tight pants.
The latter forming around my butt pretty well.
Are you sure you're gender fluid and not just want to wear cutsie stuff every now and then?
Well, maybe that's because I am physically impossible to get a beard, so the solution is simple, but still.

Someone having a different opinion to yours is not being a cunt. Some people were being cunts, others were not. That being said, you basically just blocked anyone that even disagreed with you. If you're not even confident enough to look at differing opinions and prove people wrong yourself then why should I believe you?
I'm not proving anyone wrong, I'm just blocking people I don't like, that's what the block option is for. I know my condition is not normal and it's probably classified as some sort of mental illness but you don't go telling a one-legged man he's a cripple in his face.

That's fair enough. However, you need to remember you just posted on an internet forum where people (most of which don't agree with you) are allowed to say whatever they want anonymously and uncensored. I'm sure you could have forseen there would be a lot of people here who would try to argue with you, or be a cunt. People here are a cunt for absolutely no reason, why do you think this issue would be any different?
I mean, if you really are going to block everyone you don't like, that's like 80% of this site. If you aren't looking for debate then why not go somewhere where people more people share your opinions?
Also, this is djequalizee. I don't want to look like i'm anon because i'm hiding my account, you just blocked me so i can't reply.

That's true, but even on those boards i'm not going to be blocked for telling them i think they're wrong. Hell, i could probably call most people here a retarded faggot and they still would understand i'm also being a retarded faggot as well. I just never understood why someone would block someone for having a different opinion unless they were actively harassing the person and wouldn't leave them alone. Blocking someone for not agreeing with you, or because they called you a name, seems like a pretty terrible idea in my opinion. It's basically creating a safe space where everyone agrees with you and isn't challenging you in any way. That doesn't seem fun to me. Though, as i said below, to each their own. I was just wondering why klina was blocking people for simply disagreeing
I see no issue with what I'm doing. People reply, I block them, nothing of value is lost. I think you're the one who's misjudging the situation. Yes I posted on a forum where most people disagree, but out of the 10ish people I blocked, dehnoobshow replied reasonably and I talked to him, so I am satisfied with the outcome.
I don't see why you feel the need to come back as anon after I've blocked you, and you're not the first, but you're definitely the most persistent one, so I'll ask. Why is it that every time I block someone they feel the need to ask me why I blocked them? Is it an ego-trip? Do you need the approval of everyone online? Do you really care that much about that one person that blocked you?

Absolutely not, i'm just curious on why you were blocking people for having differing opinions and lurking this thread for fun until i saw that you called everyone below a "cunt" and dismissed what they said. I have no issue with you thinking i'm a cunt, but i do have issue with you thinking i'm a cunt under false pretenses. That's why i'm asking questions. In my comment below i was genuinely wondering the things i asked below and i got nothing from you about it.
It just seems strange to me that you blocked people without explaining anything to them, unless the point of the comment was just to get attention or say it just so say it. But to each their own, i guess

Oh no, I used the word retarded.
Take a look at a huge portion of the people who are "Gender fluid" and tell me they aren't doing it for attention. Because i'm willing to bet most 13 year old girls on tumblr are doing it because they see other people encouraging it and saying it's a good thing to be special.
And you said it yourself, it's probably a mental issue. It's nothing personal, lots of people go to therapy. I go to therapy. It's not like i'm saying "get to a doctor you degenerate freak".
It's a pretty tame explanation of how i think, to be honest.

This anon stuff is good **** .
Asrial here. I'm sorry if my first post was a bit too harsh. I am entitled to air my opinion, and so are yours. And honestly, I thought your original post was an exaggerated troll, so my tone was appropriately harshened.
I stand by my opinion; I don't get gender fluidity. I get a lot of **** , but gender fluidity is just not one of them.
Now, blocking everyone voicing a similar opinion and those who call you out is like shooting yourself in the foot. It's allright to disagree. It's not allright to wave a rare flag and silence the questioners, that's the job for tumblrinas.

Well you're not throwing **** at me for being a mostly white male, so I figured even if you were tumblr-ish you are at least able to listen and give logical answers instead of "patriarchy"
I consider myself a pretty tolerant person within reason. I can understand being trans. But i refuse to believe that someone can just wake up and go "I'm a girl today lol" and then wake up the next day and want to be the complete opposite. I do not believe it is in the dsm either, and isn't recognized as a legitimate thing (unless you classify it as a mental disorder under gender dysphoria or some other personality disorder.)
It sounds like a more "PC" way of labeling a personality disorder to me.
as asrial said, i can't take it seriously. If you're at a point where you can't even decide on what gender you "identify" with and it fluctuates consistently without warning then that obviously means your brain is unstable in some way. When i hear "Genderfluid" i hear someone acting retarded for attention or someone who should see a therapist.

Yay, I got mentioned outside Undertale!
But it would be a different beast altogether if the person would just acknowledge that they both like to do effeminate stuff and masculine stuff. Why do you need to verify your personality with an abstract gender concept? Sure, I can drink elderflower cordial and get myself a pedi, that doesn't mean my gender was fluidly female for 24 hours, that's absurd.

That's exactly how i feel. Liking feminine stuff doesn't mean you have to have a special label. It just means you like feminine stuff. Why do people have to make all these labels and ****
If I go into the ghetto or try speaking in ebonics, I don't temporarily become a black person or any other minority, just like I don't magically become Polish when I eat kielbasa or German when I complain about migrants. You don't need mental crutches, just like a person with in-tact legs doesn't need a wheelchair. It's only for those who actually need help, and feeling like you enjoy certain feminine things when you're a man, or visa-versa, is not an example of a situation where you need mental crutches, because literally everybody does that. I lift and am going into engineering, and I drink ******* white-girl coffee with a ******** of soy because it tastes good and I like it. Just learn to tell people to **** off when they criticize the things you do, don't invent labels to describe things that don't need labeling.

Still can't take it serious. Being pissy about your own decision which has zero repercussion or pressure? Yeah right.
I get drags. They have a persona. I get transgender. They stick with their gender and know what's up. I seriously don't get gender-fluids. It's not a persona, it's not a set identity, it's a person that's confused about his/her identity and want differential treatment based on immediate state-of-mind.
Get real.

even worse, they are the people that generally speak about how terrible gender roles are and how there is no reason for girls to act like girls and boys act like boys.
...
if there are no genderroles what the flying **** is genderfluid even supposed to mean.
...

Exactly. Trans is an identity, it's who you are, and it's set in your head from birth, like people who are born gay (trans people, a lot of them, start out as gay/effeminate and make the "switch" later in life once they get their **** figured out). But I can't make heads or tails of people who claim to switch between genders. That's just silly to me. I can understand changes in preference but gender is much more than just a state of mind, it's a part of who you are, and pushing the idea that something like that, well... isn't... that's a dangerous notion.
People who make those kind of claims, I almost feel like they undermine the struggles and ******** that trans people have to put up with. It's probably why I can't say I'm trans on this site without people assuming I'm some tumblr lunatic.

Yeah man I am really insecure when I block people that they will make fun of me lol
I just don't see why people care, I block/hideall people who post troll/hyperliberal **** . Why do you care I blocked you? Can you really not handle a stranger not wanting to deal with your *********** online?
I just don't see why people care, I block/hideall people who post troll/hyperliberal **** . Why do you care I blocked you? Can you really not handle a stranger not wanting to deal with your *********** online?
But then, I wasn't blocked here. But when a person blocks half of a comment section purely based upon his supposed gender fluidity (most of us could care less and would still **** him\her) then there is a problem. They're creating a bubble for themselves that's filled with nothing but people like them. It's a sort of "thought racism". If you eliminate all the thoughts that aren't your own then of course you'll be stuck never seeing anything worthwhile in other thoughts.
Again, why do you care? If they don't want to deal with other people why do you feel obligated to care that they aren't getting a full range of thoughts?
Even if it doesn't effect him badly (which it most certainly does) we live in a world where people can combine to achieve great things. If everyone willingly separates themselves then nothing will ever be achieved.
I feel that this effects me to a great degree. I want a world of free-thinkers and discussion. Not one of closed-minded hugboxes.

So you want to force your views on him... now do you see why I have a problem with this idea?
And that individual doesn't want to. So unless you are going to force them to listen - they've already made their position quite clear. You know you're not going to change their opinion so again, why even bother?
But, me telling him he is an idiot for doing something doesn't mean I'm "forcing him" to do anything. He's supposed to be a rational adult. The same should apply to anything anyone could tell him. Sure harassment is nasty but just getting rid of dissonant opinion is ridiculous.
You're certainly not going to change my stance on the matter, no one's forcing him to do anything, it's just clearly inane.

Not to mention you honestly shouldn't care that a stranger you've never met blocks people they disagree with online.
But if it makes you happy to be concerned for peoples well being you do you. Its your time if you want to spend it telling people theyre stupid have at it

But you're not right. You're still wrong. Try telling this to anyone else. I already did (as you so neatly suggested). No one is going to side with you on whether or not to comment is a stance or not. It clearly is. Everything you choose to do is based upon your own personal stance. Whether or not to comment. What you like to eat. Your belief on fetish control.
Insulting my age (even if you happen to be dead wrong) and blocking me (to which I did retaliate) is not going to make you less wrong.

Lets try this one last time to see if you can get it through your head. Odds are you're going to make up another abstract argument to avoid being wrong
stance - noun - "the attitude of a person or organization toward something"
Your stance is that you think he is stupid for blocking people he disagrees with. This is your attitude towards him.
Your stance is NOT "I am going to comment and tell him he is stupid." An attitude is not an action. Your attitude towards him does not inherently mean you must comment. These are two completely unrelated topics. You said your "stance" is to comment. An attitude cannot be an action so you are wrong. It is quite literally this simple. Your idea that your attitude is you are going to comment is an impossible one, an attitude cannot and will never be an action. An opinion is not a verb. It is not your opinion to comment. It is your decision and action to comment.
But by all means feel free to continue arguing that your attitude is that you are going to comment. You argue an impossible concept

Its your attitude on whether or not to comment?
The actual definition of the word clearly doesn't fit in this sentence when you plug it in. I'm actually amazed that you've somehow managed to make your sentence form a logical statement in your head when it so clearly misuses the word.

Forgive my phrasing, but isn't observing, understanding, and accepting other viewpoints the first steps to global singularity?

I'm a moderate conservative, and the New York Times of all newspapers is hooked up to my phone as my main news source. If you don't like what people are saying, but they're only criticizing your ideas, suck it up and listen. That's how you grow as a person: by being exposed to viewpoints you ordinarily refuse to consider, and debating their own merits.
What's the worst that could possibly happen? You say "No, he's wrong" and move on? You're being ******* infantile, grow up!

And yes, it does affect me because this idiotic refusal to even consider the arguments of the other side is the cancer eating at the heart of many Western countries. It creates politically polarized children who can't even hear a liberal or a conservative open their mouth without bursting into tears and crying about having their rights and needs taken away. The advent of a new paradigm may be a huge event, but it starts when people start caring enough to have these 1-on-1 conversations and call out unacceptable behavior. It starts when people say "I don't care whether I make myself look like an idiot, or get too into it, this is right, it is fas, and it must. happen"

I may not understand it, but I'm not gonna judge, as long as they aren't actually being attention whores
Okay, but my source is having actually met and spent time with some genderfluid people, and the only reason it came up is because I assumed they were trans, and when I said something about that, they clarified that they are actually genderfluid. They didn't bring it up themselves, it didn't even come up for hours. I know that there's a lot of special snowflakes that have nothing better to talk about then their noncongruent gender, but I do have confirmation that there are gender fluid people that aren't attention whores, so that's why I said I'm not going to judge them as that just based on being gender fluid

being "gender-fluid" is a lame ass excuse to say you like men but you also like girls but are too afraid to go out as gay or bicurious. ****** , this post belongs to tumblr.

ragged (01/11/2016) [-] Seriously? I'm tired of this discrimination! I am proud to be toaster-fluid, and I've had enough of this!! I'm going to go toast some waffles in my ass to spite you.
You know, I'm pretty feminine for a man, but I still call myself a man 100% of the time. What the hell has to snap in your head to call yourself "gender-fluid?" That's just a really fancy way of calling someone a pussy.
I dated a girl who said she was gender fluid but it basically meant she dressed like a tomboy which I was totally into. She had a friend who would get mad if you called here anything that wasn't gender neutral though and that was kinda annoying because she'd flip out on people who didn't know better.

My concept in gender fluidity is that it's merely the product of hormones in adolescence. Teens start to go through changes, and thanks to the internet, they think that they're a tri gendered pyrofox fictionkin that identifies as their homestuck fan troll that identifies as trans racial to human transgendered male to female.
I've seen stuff like this in action. Someone saying how they feel a different gender everyday and throwing a fit because they was called the wrong pronoun.
Was also on a forum so there was no way to tell what they was until they freaked out about it.

elcreepo (01/12/2016) [-] You can't be both, gender is not a sexuality.
I don't even understand HOW you can be both.
They're two completely separate mindsets. Not even full hermaphrodites are "both." They usually lean either male or female. So unless you've got some serious disassociation personalities going on, being both is pretty impossible.

Except that sexuality is biological. Except that you can't be both at the same ******* time. I'm not talking trannies here, you ******* sjw. Trannies lean towards being the other gender.
Please go sit your butthurt argumentative ass down. I'm not saying a man can't be feminine. I'm saying you can't be feminine AND masculine at the same time. They're two completely different social constructs.

I have a question for FJ, some guy that shared he was gender fluid got ripped a new one in the comments. What if an individual is gender fluid in private i.e. they don't demand special treatment, pronouns etc. they just sometimes feel more masculine/feminine and dress according to how the feel in their alone time.
See if someone is going around demanding people are OK with them wearing a dress one day and guy clothes the next, changing pronouns daily etc. I can understand being annoyed as at that point its probably for attention. But, if someone is doing it in private how can it be for attention? Could be they have some sort of mental disorder we simply haven't classified yet or maybe DID. Thoughts?

What I don't get about transgender people is that they want to be looked at/treated/viewed as a 'woman' socially, so they basically accept the fact that women and men are treated differently.
If they really want to be treated for who they are, don't want to be rejected by society and want to dress femininely/wear makeup they could at least go for 'men dressing femininely' to not be socially unacceptable instead of calling themselves female, they are men, biologically, instead of creating a new type of naming system, like "YOUR BIOLOGICAL SEX, YOUR GENDER" being a different thing, they could just claim that they're men but they dress out of the norm of men.
I might be bigoted in this case but for me it's like a person creating a new system, like "Your biological race, Your race identity",
it's like saying "I'm biologically Caucasian, but I feel like I'm more of an African inside."
no you're ******* not, and if you feel that way it means you act the way some people of African descent stereotypically do.
You're caucasian biologically, no amount of reverse-michael-jacksoning will change that
Now you might ask, "What about the ones who literally want to become a woman/man?"
Well that's a bit difficult to cover, as we do not yet have the science to do that completely, even if you mutilate your genitals, your chromosomes would still be your sex, it's not yet possible.
Sure I'm not at all against changing your sex with hormonal treatment/surgery, but it's far too early for that now, unless you get lucky you'll look silly.
but in the future, where there will probably be pills to change your sex, I'm all for that, heck I might even give it a try for a day or two LOL, but now it's a really difficult process that you either end up disfiguring yourself or get lucky and fool some people into thinking you're the opposite sex.
in the end, we all get what we all get, I wanted to be born attractive, but I'm not.
I want to be a panda, but I'm not
I get how bigoted this comment might be for some people but I really want a proper response from someone who can actually tell me how it feels like.

way to live up to that name
trans people aren't choosing to be trans. they FEEL they belong as the opposite gender. they don't want to be rejected because their brains are wired differently than most others. they want to be themselves and they don't want to risk having the **** beat out of them every time they leave their home.

as long as you're not harming anyone, why can't we just ******* live and let live?
If you want to dress as the other sex, do it. Just don't expect everyone to respect you for it. Being a faggot isn't a community, or an identity. It's just a thing people do sometimes. Get over it.

anon (01/12/2016) [-] Personally I think that gender is a dumb concept. I'm not saying there aren't things tied to sex, but sex and gender are mutually exclusive (or rather, they should be). Wear what you like, act how you want, and if you're doing it in protest of "the patriarchy" or whatever it is you're protesting towards, then more power to you. That said, being gender fluid and being a dick about your gender are also mutually exclusive. You don't have to be an annoying pissbaby about it.
