I rarely bother leaving any tips for the cashiers at the grocery store, though I might occasionally drop a few extra cents if they’re just cluttering up my wallet...
Yeah, I always make sure to leave a tip at restaurants, unless the service was just totally rude, then I'm definitely not leaving anything... 😬 I felt so bad yesterday morning because I picked up some new shoes and the lady working there was just incredibly sweet... since I was still half-asleep when I rushed downtown to grab them, I realized I didn't have a single cent of cash on me, and I honestly felt terrible that I couldn't leave her something for a coffee...
Emily Collins14 said:Just speaking from a guy's perspective here... honestly, it feels great.😁 Especially if you're out in nature and can just "go" wherever. It's actually pretty fun. 😁
But yeah, life is definitely easier for us in a lot of ways... 😁
Oh please, don't even start with that, especially not with me. I have a tiny bladder and I find myself constantly looking over my shoulder at all the guys and how they just pee wherever they feel like it...😁
Jamie Jackson3 said:As for me, I voted for the permanent route, even though those who opted for the three-month trial seem more sensible—assuming they find they enjoy it and decide to extend the term.😁 After all, there is no guarantee we would actually like it.🤷 I previously mentioned my choice in the main thread, but here is the breakdown of my motivations:
The ability to walk around shirtless during the summer Having zero cellulite Never having to deal with hair removal again Being able to commit traffic violations to my heart's content without being dismissed as just another incompetent woman behind the wheel Not having people constantly pestering me about when I plan to get married Being able to have children whenever I choose (perhaps in my 40s😁), rather than being limited to my youth Eliminating periods entirely, which means no ruined vacations due to cramps, no nausea, no pain, no bleeding, no messy discharges, no pills, no injections, and no swollen breasts Avoiding pregnancy and childbirth altogether, so I don't end up physically wrecked and needing stitches after labor No one taking offense if I stay late at the office Finding a female companion willing to pick up my laundry for free—without it being my mother😁 Finally understanding what makes beer so appealing Hearing the actual conversations that happen in men's locker rooms and restrooms Securing a higher salary No longer feeling the constant need to prove myself Not having construction workers turning their heads or catcalling me Being able to retain my maiden name after marriage without facing societal judgment Gaining a greater level of respect Walking like a normal human being outdoors without destroying my hips, spine, and feet by wearing high heels The freedom to do absolutely nothing all day except jerk off and complain about how hard life is Being able to completely let myself go, look terrible, and still charm the most beautiful women, given the widely held belief that women are attracted to personality and soul rather than mere aesthetics😛
So, those are my reasons.😁 If I recall any others, I shall list them accordingly.
Those are such great points, especially the ones in bold 🙏:
slymaker9 said:Of course I do; I have always been very fond of Dinko Šimunović’s stories.🙂 However, things have certainly shifted since Brunhild’s era... Those specific advantages—and perhaps even some of the hardships I haven't yet experienced—are things I would be curious to feel firsthand. Men face their own set of pressures, too. For instance, imagine you're in a job interview with an attractive woman and you find yourself getting physically aroused; you really have to fight to stay focused.🤣 🙈
I am also interested in how a person's height influences others and dictates social behavior.
What do you mean by height and its impact on behavior?
slymaker9 said:I am curious too. Even accounting for the possibility that men might have voted—which is theoretically possible for this or any other option—I believe at least one woman who genuinely wants to undergo the transition and become a man permanently will step up, own her stance, and explain herself on the subject.🙂
Oh, and in her new life, she’d definitely find some tree to pee against.🤣
🤣🤣🤣 It's actually funny how easy they make it for themselves, because men really have no clue how practical peeing can be...😍
redharbor9 said:How do you even know women voted for that? 🙂
I guess it's just because she wrote that she wanted to be a man permanently😁... But yeah, guys could have voted for it too, though I suppose the options would've been phrased a bit differently if that were the case...
It would be really fascinating if those ladies who voted saying they’d want to be men permanently would just share a little bit about what's driving that feeling...
slymaker9 said:Interesting.😕 Why exactly do you think I don't care?
Honestly, I just feel perfectly comfortable being a woman... I don't really have any desire to understand what it's like to be a man, because we're just different, and I think there's something beautiful about that distinction, so I'd rather not go digging into those secrets or differences... It just feels more right this way for me...😍
I usually leave a little extra tip for my hairstylist or when I'm grabbing coffee at a local cafe, though I don't really bother doing that with the ladies at the grocery store... the only exception is when I run into those super sweet girls working in boutiques, then I might leave something small so they can grab a drink later... I rarely give anything to panhandlers, since I've just never been fond of people who make a career out of asking for change on the street.
Betty Chase54 said:Laughter is really more of a social thing than anything else...
👍 I couldn't agree more... When I'm hanging out with friends, I find myself laughing so much and truly from the heart, plus it just seems to spread to everyone else so easily...😍
Gosh, Pac-Man has seriously driven me up the wall before. I usually have about five or six tabs open at once, and I remember the first time I left that Pac-Man page running in the background, when it suddenly started making all those noises, aaaah 😲 It was the middle of the night and I had absolutely no clue what was going on because I completely forgot I even had that tab active 🤣
amberheron64 said:So, I have a question for you all, Let's say our friend here is a size 44—and we’re talking about how her pants seem to just give up the ghost right between the thighs after only a month or two—whether they were high-end brands like Wrangler or just some budget stuff from a big-box store. Based on what you guys have dealt with, do you actually know where to find pants that are... well, sturdier? Specifically in the crotch area? I need something that isn't going to shred itself through sheer willpower. It feels like a silly thing to ask, I know—but honestly, these jeans I picked up at Macy's just last month already have a hole in them.
That's honestly a tough one to solve because everything seems to be made of much softer fabrics these days, and that constant friction on the thighs really makes things difficult... A tailor might be able to help out by sewing some small triangular patches on the inside, which can save the pants and make them last way longer, plus you can't even see them once you're dressed...
I was thinking the exact same thing, it really seems like JPMorgan Chase has the best rates for that... Between the setup fee and the monthly online banking charge, $2.75 it looks like they include a certain number of transactions in that price too, though I can't be totally sure if that was just a special promo or if it's always been that way Personally, I keep my checking and savings over at JPMorgan Chase, and then I have my foreign currency account at Miami... Altogether, it comes out to about $1.75 in monthly fees across all my accounts, which honestly I'm pretty happy with 👍
If you think they messed up your payout, the register won't even balance at the end of the shift anyway, so you might as well just head over there and let them know...
People just love broadcasting their massive amounts of affection to the entire world😍
I find it pretty ridiculous too, but hey, everyone’s got their own little way of being happy, I guess...
Oh, and it just crossed my mind, there was this rumor going around about a friend of mine and some guy she's seeing. They’ve actually been walking together for two years now. And then everyone starts acting so surprised, wondering how it can even be a "real" relationship when nothing is posted on Meta 🤦 And look, we aren't eighteen. Not even close. We're more like, well, over ten plus...
casualharbor9 said:... and don't forget the moss! Don't you dare forget the moss! 🧐
... though, I suppose you could always just leave a few breadcrumbs behind...
Oh, and about that moss 🤣 I actually ended up getting totally lost in the woods the other day :asparagus: and honestly, a little bit of panic started creeping in because everywhere I looked, everything just looked exactly the same, and then I had this sudden, bright idea—I should go look for moss. But once I actually found some, I realized it wasn't going to help me at all since I still had absolutely no clue which way the city was facing, so it didn't really matter where I stood 🤣 So I eventually just started screaming, and luckily someone actually heard me 🙂
