Ockham's Spoon Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 One of my daughters is transgender so I know that having representation out there is important, and I appreciate everyone who puts themselves out there, because it isn't easy in today's society (esp. since Nov. 2016). My daughter is having a difficult time as is, but without the people who came out before her to raise our collective consciousness of transgender issues it would be so much worse. Thank you for positively expressing who you are despite the possible negative consequences. drunkonduty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hopcroft Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 I do look like my avatar, or at least I used to. My beard has gained significantly lighter coloring the last few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Certified Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 It's hard to formulate words that would be respectful enough, so we'll keep it short, thank you for the honesty. It takes so much to speak to these parts of one's life. So again, thank you and I hope that everyone in your life accepts you and helps you to more through the transition as painlessly as possible. On a side note, my avatar is me at a computer convention. It's not a great image, but I thought it looked cool. drunkonduty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndianaJoe3 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Grrr. Just had to call someone out in a PM for a transphobic comment. Hopefully they'll take the hint and rephrase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Kudos for feeling comfortable on coming out. And I don't think I look anything like any of my avatars. Though I really need to update my FB one as well. It's coming up on a year since the last change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hopcroft Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I'm only now learning to adjust to the new world of personal pronouns. For some reason I always thought of "they" and "they're" as plurals and it never occurred to me to apply them to individuals as gender-neutral. But I have at least one transgendered friend now, possibly more (I don't pry), and am in a set of fandoms where fluid gender is not uncommon. so I'm making the effort to learn, and to re-adjust my attitudes on the subject. For someone in my generation, that's not always so easy. drunkonduty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eepjr24 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Some people would probably say I resemble my avatar, but most would have to be taking some serious reality altering drugs. Glad you felt comfortable enough to come out here. Gamers are an odd mix, we are an average slice of the human race with all the good and bad that implies. Hopefully you mostly find the good here. - E RDU Neil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
