  1. I am also realizing that I am both a man and a woman. Science has not caught up to this phenomenon, but it is getting there.
  2. There cannot be Man without Woman. There cannot be Woman without Man. I am embracing women more and more. My upbringing has boxed women into fixed roles. I no longer wish to see women as mere objects to be toyed with.
  3. It is a paradox, indeed. Going beyond your comfort zone and exploring new opportunities feels like you’re getting sick and reality is getting worse. However, it’s actually an opening and a test to see if you’re truly committed to expanding yourself despite the appearance of illness.
  4. I acted very gay today, despite having core beliefs that being gay is wrong and evil. Gay does not just mean a man loving a man. It could mean a million other things. For me, I enjoy being genderqueer. I’m like a chameleon that gets to be whatever gender I want depending on the day and mood.
  5. @universe Yep. And challenge them not to prove that they’re wrong. Challenge them to discover that they never had any validity to begin with.
  6. Ultimately, accepting and embracing imperfections/defects about yourself will lead to less distress.
  7. The way out is to challenge your assumptions gradually and consistently. I overcame a major fear of mine today, despite having to sift through a ton of resistance and doubt within myself. There is a lot to learn from going through this process. It won’t be comfortable, but the alternative is, like you said, to be trapped.
  8. I’ve heard my sister tell me that. My current relationship is unique in that I am dating a woman and I am genderfluid. She expresses a lot of masculine traits as well.
  9. That’s completely normal, and if anything, will make you much more relatable and authentic in your future relationships.
  10. Those are mainstream and socially tolerated forms of sex. 50 shades may seem normal to you, but normal people will see it like this:
  11. Yes, its called a BDSM club. How you interact in a BDSM club should profoundly different than how you interact in a Starbucks. And not all women are into BDSM. Stop assuming that.
  12. What has worked for me is being much more authentic with myself. Picking up neurodiverse peeps is clearly my strength. Masking and pretending to be neurotypical is my curse. Living near Austin has been great. Lots of weird ass people here.
  13. From what I’ve heard, the newer generation prefers to give out their social media handles, rather than their phone number.
  14. As an experiment, try doing the same thing, but in a different room.
  15. And be flexible with evolving your ideas. For example, religion was not pointless and had a lot of meaning for me when I was a child. As an adult, the religion I was brought up with is pointless and meaningless to how I want to live my life now.
  16. Altering my cannabis dose, whether it is skipping or increasing or decreasing it, gives me a 100% chance of having insanely vivid hallucination and a shift in consciousness, even if temporarily.
  17. Someone is who intuitive and in touch with what they want out of life, rather than what other people tell them they should do.
  18. Life is whatever you hold it to be. The serious work starts with yourself, and you can build your life entirely from scratch if you so choose to.
  19. There are no rules surrounding feelings. You can mourn over your stuffed animal if it meant the world to you.
  20. Works for me. Make sure you’re buying a reputable brand. I personally use NOW Brand because I love to live in the NOW.
  21. Intimacy with a fantasy is not the same as intimacy with God.
  22. You’ll be playing an endless game of Whac-A-Mole. And that’s wack. Notice how you are creating this very moment right now.
  23. Preserving onto any particular thing is particularly flawed. There is only God.
