>>12658143Having less authority means having to adhere to the wishes of the one who holds it. It also means not stepping out of line. It doesn't sound very comforting to me, but maybe your version implies different things.
>Well, that's a little rude.... Why should I?Sorry, I didn't mean to insult you with that. I mean don't you find it degrading? I know we see things differently, but I would find it humiliating to be in your position... Don't you ever wish to be the dominant party? I don't know, there are plenty of girls who don't mind guys with self-esteem issues, aren't there?
>I have heard stories of people being in relationships with women while transitioning.That's just weird, I mean what did those women think of the situation? You marry a man and then he suddenly wants to be a woman? You know, I find mothers to be less forgiving than fathers funnily enough. A mother would want to shape you into a perfect man, while a father would forgive your mistakes because he himself was guilty of them at your age.
>There's also a novel I borrowed from my grandpa, The Magnificent Ambersons, which documents the life of a socialite family in the Midwest towards the beginning of the last century.Oh, I didn't think you were into those kinds of books. Do you like it so far? I am reading a book called Dangerous Liaisons which I swear is not porn.
>What are you getting at with that last part tho?I wasn't getting at anything, but I guess I can see why you'd think that I was making a comparison between us with it. I was talking about pictures like this, except they were in a much older style obviously. I saw the men and I wanted to look like them one day, so I started working out regularly.
>especially when you consider the notion that the counter-culture movement of the time may have been an intentional psyop much like the later conspiracy involving the spread of crack cocaine and its effects on the black community hereGo on that sounds very interesting. The whole post does.
