I referred to an upcoming outing with my friend as a "playdate." Not only do I look 10, but I act it as well.

Bio

I'm an eighteen-year-old autistic trans boy with a great love of people and Pokémon. I play Dungeons and Dragons and other tabletop RPGs, and am heavily involved in the Nuzlocke Forums. I tend to ramble quite a lot and can seem rather pretentious, as I have a large vocabulary and tend to utilize it without thinking. I swear I'm a nice person I just sometimes Aspie out and end up going on super intellectual, disjointed rants.

I'm an advocate for civil rights and hope to become a journalist some day. I'm very queer and have a wonderful girlfriend, and hope one day our love will not be regarded negatively.

I generally enjoy well-executed genre deconstructions and stories which focus on plot and characters. Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Gintama, Baccano!!, Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, and Avatar: the Last Airbender, among others. As a roleplayer, I tend to lean towards these shows and elements.

Yeah. I should've known better and PMed them just in case but my anxious ass was like "nah fam you'll be fine any reason not to have to pm someone"
I pmed them but most likely I'll end up shutting this down or something, it was kind of a stupid idea anyway to start a roleplay given I'm literally a homeless foster kid who has much less free time than she thinks. I seriously didn't think it would be an issue but looking at their roleplay mine ended up being way too similar. I'm just generally feeling like an asshole because I never intended to upset anyone at all, I just wanted to start a cool PMMM roleplay and saw a rad system. I'm sorry for getting anyone's hopes up.
Hey guys, so I'm a fucking stupid anxious idiot who figured it'd be ok to borrow rules from a previous PMMM roleplay just crediting them and without asking permission. I might end up cancelling this roleplay if they want me to...and also I kind of made this on a whim, and am going through a lot of crap right now irl and don't really have the energy for this. So all around a terrible decision on my part. I'm sorry.
Awww shoot, I got caught. I tried to sleep, but alas, it came in a 30 minute spurt and just kind of wouldn't come back.
@CleopatraI'm sorry, I never intended for it to be, I just thought the system was cool and functional. As I said before, I can shut this down if you don't like it.
@IceHeart ...did you not read the studies? At all? You know, the ones that basically prove that now that homosexual couples are being allowed to adopt, they basically function the same as heterosexual ones in terms of the wellbeing of the child?

Church and state should be separated, regardless. There is no place for religion in politics. And is an adoption agency depriving children of potential homes simply based on their own, biased, factually disproved personal beliefs truly good work?

Also, so does that mean we should discriminate against actual trans people because of that?

I must go to bed now. I dearly hope your sect of Seventh-Day Adventists aren't the terrifying cult-like people I've dealt with in my life.
@IceHeart ...you're actually arguing that nuclear heterosexual families are the best environment for children. I'm guessing no amount of scientific evidence will convince you otherwise, but may I suggest if these religious organizations want to deny LGBT parents, they not take federal funding? And whether or not they believe the parents will be good for the child has nothing to do with whether or not they actually are.

Also, the Texas wrestling championship was a transgender boy who was forced to participate in the women's division because his school wouldn't let him wrestle with the boys. And I'm fairly certain one would not go through transition simply to win a wrestling competition--why would someone voluntarily cause gender dysphoria to themselves, ever?

Here's a study which combines 59 studies published by the APA, which provide rather conclusive evidence that homosexual parents are equilivant in parentage to heterosexuals.

If you'd like to tell a gay person why you think they aren't as good a parent as a straight person would be, go ahead! I'm all ears. You can say I'm baiting, if you want, but I'd very much like to hear your reasoning.

Also, tolerance of intolerance-how far are you willing to let that go? Should we not force any moral codes onto society? Was it bad to enforce nondiscrimination laws based on sex, race, religion? If not, then why is it bad to have them based on sexuality and gender? Where do you draw the line?
@mdk Bathroom use was never legally enforced at all, trans people used bathrooms corresponding with their gender without incident for quite a while until this law craze popped up.
@mdk Oh. Sorry. I have issues with reading jokes literally sometimes. And basically, GOP lawmakers are pushing laws that would legally(?) make trans people have to use the restroom on their birth certificate. The idea is that it will prevent "men dressed as women" from peeping on women in the bathroom. Never mind the fact that a law like that isn't really enforceable and only spreads ignorance, and also the fact that it ignores trans men exist? It's just generally really shitty and a lot of trans people are suffering for it, heck, some cis people who look kinda trans are getting grief or even beaten up, it's fuckin' crazy.

Edit: lol no for real though I am so sorry at jumping at conclusions, I've had a lot of people actually try to use those types of statements seriously and...I'm not the best at all at seeing past sarcasm/jokes. I have really really high-functioning autism, but...I'm still autistic. >>
@Veiled Angel Coming up!
...2 ToF. I'm sorry, bud. Also, the new OOC thread is a thing! roleplayerguild.com/topics/164456-pue…
@mdk Oh, it definitely is related to lobbyists, who are trying to pander to those who are discriminatory.

...when did I ever say I hate cisgender white men? The dumbasses who discriminate against them because they happen to be born into positions of privilege disgust me, it's not their fault, don't be the fuckin' discriminatory people you're fighting. Plus there are civil rights issues surrounding them, particularly men--men are raped and denied help (or even accused of liking it, or being the rapist!), denied custody, etc, and that's something I also want to bring awareness to. I'm not going to discriminate against you simply because you're not a minority, what kind of terrible logic is that??
