”"I’m not here to fight about bathrooms. I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families," she said."

Fuck yeah. Rock on. I'm sorry she has to face this bullshit, but Delaware is lucky to have her.

I didnt know she was trans- To be totally honest im actually out of the loop on a lot of this, Visually, she looks EXACTLY like a woman (man I wish I could swap genders and pass-)

Dude she passes 100%, there's not anything to her appearance that looks masculine, and I say this as just someone looking at her first glance. I saw her for the first time and said "Thats deadass a woman, How do you misgender her she's literally a woman. Are they stupid?" then scrolled the comments and found out she's trans.

AND THEY STILL MISGENDERED HER??? Nah dude- fuck whoever did that, they're a prick fr.

(you're still a prick if you purposefully misgender someone but like- idk if the person looked exactly like man but prefers She/her, my dumbass is gonna be struggling regardless; I can barely remember to eat food during the day. But this scenario is like looking at Janet Mock and calling her a He. WTF??)

(man I wish I could swap genders and pass-)

Should we unpack this or nah?

IM NOT TRANS YALL I SWEAR 😭 Sometimes I just wanna wake up one day and be like "Fuck it, im a dude today" And do some real undercover spy type shit and TOTALLY change my identity n shit. like I wanna get to the point where I could meet my friends and they'd be like "Who tf are you??"

GODDDDDDDDD itd be like living a double life- that sounds so cool to me.

[–] Cock_Inspecting_Asexual@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (4 children)

i know that sounds goofy as shit but IMAGINE just being able to effortlessly swap entire genders like that, and then being able to go back when I feel like it?! UGHHHHHHHHH THAT BE SO FUCKING COOL

if im gonna be honest- I'd say im "digitally trans" if that makes any sense at all. I play a lotta online games like vrchat, and I fucking hate my voice cus I sound like a toddler, but the characters that I enjoy playing are all masculine men. So im working on getting a voice changer that can totally disguise my voice 😎 I'm still a girl, And I love being a girl lol, but im just sayin if there was a machine I could walk into and BAM im a full blown man, bits and everything....

👀 I'd invest my life saving into that shit

You can do that with voice training, as long as you keep using both voices. It might give you euphoria to easily switch it on the fly.

[–] tree_frog@lemm.ee 4 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, so everyone is unpacking this lol

Was also digitally trans, until I got sick of hating real life. Now I'm just trans.

Also, voice practice is a thing. If you want to be able to use your 'digital voice' in non-digital life someday.

Nahhh I aint got that kinda bass in my voice, the best I could do if I wanted my voice to match a male persona is be a femboy. I do a lotta vocal work, but I just dont have the natural base, I can speak in a fairly deep voice but it's mostly for singing reasons. Like if ima deadass swap genders, I gotta go full out, FULL full out. No surgery, No T (deff not that lol), ALL movie quality type SFX and a fuckton of scar wax. Finna James bond it...

I think this is more of a Crossdressing interest than it is Trans?? I just wanna achieve that full masculine look cus I like dressing up in really complex costumes n shit 😎

wait- YALL STOP TRYNNA FUCKIN CONVINCE ME TO BE TRANS- I like being a girl by default 😭 😭

I wish you great success with your voice and your avatars.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

right wingers got so mad about GEN V show, when a "supe" had the ability to change genders.

[–] Triasha@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

They were my favorite character from that show.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

anything that gets right winger panties in a wad. also gender, and race swapping in many shows like sandman and invincible. like when lucifer was a girl instead of a GUY, eventhough archange/angels are genderless.

[–] Triasha@lemmy.world 1 points 7 minutes ago

God Tilda Swinton killed it as Lucifer. So fucking good.

Time, resources, and the fact that I dont want to permanently change my body to achieve it. I have been looking into SFX makeup though, Some women cosplay male characters and its like MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM got damn- they make me weak 😭😭😭

[–] oascany@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Not trying to push you towards anything, but what you're saying sounds a lot like my partner, who is genderfluid.

nOOO fluid is not enough, I need a full fuckin set of sixpack abs n shit, I need that jawline, that voice- BITCH I WANNA BE A WHOLE ASS MODEL- 2 whole ass identities n shit.

Im not an egg im not I just really fuckin love theatrics and putting on costumes 😭 😭
