First : I totally support whatever decision whoever makes. I really do not care and encourage people to be and act however they want. But, I'm quite ignorant of LGBT in general (born in an older generation). I have a few questions maybe some people can answer here. Please, please don't take the first one badly but : - does transexuality come from a scientific reason/malfunction in what is supposed to be a man? (there's variations in femininity and masculinity in everyone, but I also still believe that most men and women have specific attributes and way of seeing things/acting in general) Like, is there any difference in the brain/genes, for people who feel like they're not the gender they're born with? (I feel like it can come from various factors like education, life experience, etc, and maybe this is not one of them, but still, wondering) - I feel like wearing feminine clothing sometimes. I'm not very masculine in my attitude in the traditional sense (see here, I suspect it might be my overprotective mother's doing but I'm not quite sure), but I still do look masculine, with a big beard (I look good with it and 80% more ugly without so shaving is not an option), also now getting older and balding and skinnyfat (currently trying to fix that and getting more exercise), and I can't imagine that it would ever look good on me. Actually, it's not even me, but when looking at 99 % of bearded people with dresses or skirts, it does immediately look off to me. Yet I still really feel like I want to wear feminine clothing and act feminine sometimes. Why do I seem to have this imediate reaction when I see results, yet still want to do it? Sorry, all of this is a bit confused. But if anyone's got thoughts. Edit : adding a question : what does it mean to act feminine ? I want to act feminine but Iknow I don't want to be a woman. Does that mean that the whole picture of woman we have is nurture? I'm pretty sure some female traits are nature tho. But what about feminie gesture, clothes ? I'm quite lost here

As for Facebook and other platforms where people were saying "they're dead", they'd still probably be active. I mean look at FB. Everybody from my generation and after is saying it's shit yet people still use it. People also complain about Youtube but despite the various alternatives, I feel like the number of user and creators there is so big that nobody will ever move somewhere else. And sadly it might be similar for Reddit? I have to admit it's very convenient and my go to for a lot of things. And its power comes from the number of users. (as in, if you want to know something, you just have to see which posts are the most upvoted. It doesn't mean it'll always be true, but this is certainly a way to know some things are better than other in some categories)

Of course I didn't mean it in a bad way. But more as in if there is a norm for male or female, which well, is the case (not saying it's good or should erase everytghing around it, just that it exists), we can consider that certain biological aspects are divergents in trans people. I don't know ANYTHING about science, but like "they have less of this or more of this in their body" or "their brain is wired in a different way than the average stereotypical male" Funny thing is, that the right answer to anything. It actually is. But for people who like to think about things a little bit too much maybe, it's not enough. In the end you have the right idea, but in practice there are things like fashion, physical appearance, and other sets of things we find appealing. Now this is separate from how I feel, and maybe this one should come before the other. So...yeah, maybe I should just avoid questionning (I think it's also a way of slowing down the thoughts of having to show myself in public like that, which I feel like would definitely not be a good thing and even dangerous, even if it's very sad to think about it. I'd feel at ease with my wife and friends, but clearly not with everyone else) Just want to point again the visual harmony/fashion, etc...I think both this and what you say is true. Like, I can like wearing something, but it can just look bad on me. Everything does not need to look good. We need to respect everything but that doesn't mean it looks great from a purely visual standpoint. That being said I love very off looking or sounding movies or music, so I don't think the fact that I have this sort of epidermic reaction to bearded men in dresses is a sign of being close-minded. So yeah, still a bit confused. It is a social construct but also not? I mean, the avergae male and female are more "made for" some things, right ? Of course it's hard to say without living in a society where nobody is influenced, but clearly the biological differences are enough to know the gender we're born with will affect us in most cases ? I might be totaly wrong by the way. Just my current ideas about all of this. Also anyone knows if it has been proven that male and female brains are literally different ? Now this is a very interesting though and I'd really have to work on this. But at the same time, even if I believe this can be beneficial, I also know that it's not everything there is. I think personal taste is very important too.

What's that about tap water being bad? Is it the case in specific countries only maybe? Where I live (France), the water is safe to drink pretty much everywhere and what could be bad in it is said to be in such smaller quantities that it's not dangerous. But maybe I'm wrong, or maybe people doing those analysis are.

Considering the fact that it's included in some of the best diets (mediterranean), I'd say it's pretty healthy in decent quantities (I think it's about 1/3 of the plate being carbs). But even japanese people eat a ton of rice, white mostly I think, and they still seem like a decently healthy population (Not sure what else plays a role in this tho)

I don't get it Of course they need respect? Also I don't get the point in posting if you didn't read? But thanks anyway

English is not my first language so hopefully the title is not misleading. Basically, I mean, I've tried lots of different things in different domains, and also some that I've never tried and want to, but I'm getting quite old, and I'm feeling some kind of huge emotional pain thinking about the things I'm not doing, or those that I've decided to give up on. I might be ADHD (self diagnosed but lots of signs), so hopping for one thing to another might be my curse, but as I'm getting old, it makes me wanna cry how I've accomplished nothing compared to people I know IRL or online that specialized in certain domains. I'm also naturally not "gifted", not very smart, think to quick and I have terrilbe memory, so I really envy smart people.Me, I just know small bits of very trivial things, mostly pop culture, and a tiny bit of some arts like music, videomaking or drawing, but I suck at those. I'm sorry, I'm noticing as I type that I don't know what I'm trying to ask here. I guess I just feel bad that I'm halfway of my life and I don't feel like I can tell who I am, what I do. And the more it goes, the less energy in general I have so it's not making it easier. Edit : I forgot to mention children. Big FOMO here, but if one part of me wants to try and know I'd do my best, the other part knows that sometimes I can barely take care of myself and get overwhelmed at very small tasks so taking care of a baby...very risky. But the feeling of missing out on having children hits so, so hard...

Yeah it's been a long time since he's been teasing other forms of content, but then for some time now he has been releasing older infield videos etc I often find very interesting things in his videos, but having to hear the same stuff again and again and now going back even further is starting to test my patience. I've been so close to click unsubscribe for some months now, telling myself that maybe I've learned everything I needed to from him, but he still has a lot of credit considering everything important he thaught me so I'll wait just a bit more that he finally stops reposting his dating stuff to see what comes next. (and yeah the marketing stuff...clearly he has to do this in some way, but man it's annoying too how he sometime wastes so much time on this)
