pff What would you all do to a person that assumes you are a somethingphobe when you arent but they wont listen?

Its kinda annoying me and I need advice
┐( ̄ヘ ̄)┌
You try to understand why they're calling you an x-phobe rather than shrug it off and insist you're not despite the history of x-phobic comments you've made.

Funnily enough I've been called all of them. I don't even know what Cis is but I've been called transphobic!
Cis is the opposite of trans. It means you believe you are the gender you were assigned at birth.

I hope this is a joke or sarcasm because otherwise you are dumb as sh*t. Lol It's not a fact, more of an opinion.
Someone hasn't been taking their gender studies class

This is intersectional feminism 101. This is Atheism+.

Okay, now that I think of it, I assume everyone knows about extreme feminism (I have no idea if there's a word for it).

How do they find love if they're misandrist in za warudo? Are they all lesbians or something?

I think the word you're looking for is misandrist, AKA the rotten part of feminism.

What do you mean? The pokemon all seemed to be designed pretty well. Unless you mean like, the added "realism" to them?
I mean like yeah but a couple of them are creepy looking.

Well pff I'm definitely not Cis. lol

The term you're looking for is Radical Feminism. And that's not their beliefs at all. And whether or not they're lesbians is not really important. There are Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist (aka TERFs) that believe any trans anything is wrong, but they're a small subset of feminism that not all feminist agree with, in fact many of which actually try to combat it.

These groups aren't hiveminds like people portray them to be. Even within these groups, there are smaller groups that all have differing views on things. They just simply have a similar basic view.

Actually, yeah. There is another term, Misandrist. But that's not feminism, that's just something confused to be feminism.

Which one was creepy?

Yeah I know, sorry if my post wasn't clear enough.:) I personally don't consider misandrists that claim to be part of the mouvement true feminisits, because all they do is hate on man and give actual feminist a bad name.

We wouldn't think they were hiveminds if people like Anita didn't literally say woman should only toward bettering the collective and individual woman don't matter.

Also the term "listen and believe"

What if I believe I'm a walrus trapped in a man's body?
Then you're a walrus. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

That's in Giratina's nature, to be unsettling, and to be pokemon satan.
Chansey....chansey was a little weird, but I guess that's what happens when you put a pokemon that's always cheerful in a place like the old chateau.
Deoxys, I've found it's eyes can be a little too soul-piercing, but it is an alien after all.....
Kyogre only got me on edge when it ate archie. Jaws flashbacks are likely to blame for that.

Indeed they did.

Kinda relevant question to te gender topic: Have you guys ever taken a survey where it asks for your gender, and wanted to press the opposite answer? It happens to me quite a bit, and some of my close friends said the same.

It's called "Otherkin" it's part of the trans community
Otherkin is not trans

Wait, are we sure Kyogre (and I guess Groudon) actually killed Maxis and Archie?
I always figured since they're still alive in the games (unless ORAS changed that) they'd live in Generations. They just were attacked.

If it means getting better stuff, yeah. I did it with a survey app once. Still got no surveys so I restarted and picked what I am....Still got nothing.

Well, in The Vision Maxie stood there in horror as the beam came towards him. However this was Courtney's vision, so it likely didn't happen.
Meanwhile in The Cavern Kyogre literally opened it's jaws and came at the sub. Considering it wasn't a vision, Kyogre's size, and that even soemthing like Kyogre wouldn't be fast enough to close it's mouth, I'd say Kyogre ate Archie and the sub. I mean, he could pull a Jonah and the Whale and maybe live, but he still likely got eaten.

Time of day?

Usually it's a survey for information, not a take this survey and win **** you likely won't receive.
Just an urge that pops up. Pretty easy to resist and go with the actual answer, but still an urge that comes up.

Educate yourself with 5 minutes on Google, and after doing so you understand the situation you will likely come to one of two conclusions.

1. I was possibly this and I hadn't realized it, I'll change this aspect because I care.
2. I never was any of this, I am not a -insert-phobic.

Then continue living your life and be happy.

The more I look at Decidueye, the more it reminds me of Greninja; mostly design wise even though they're hardly alike.

Maybe it's the eyes and their poses.

Um...

I'm all for trans rights and all...

But I don't think we should seriously entertain these kind of thoughts.

Trans (ism? I don't know a fitting word for that part of grammar) has basis in psychology and biology.

Walrus really doesn't.

If they did that's pretty dark. I never got that far in Ruby and Sapphire to truly know though.

Being part of a group does not mean you understand everything about a group.

Trans is science, Otherkin is spirituality.

Trans (ism? I don't know the word) has basis in psychology and biology.

Walrus really doesn't.
If you feel more comfortable identifying as a walrus, or in some cases the re-incarnation of Bob Marley (does Snoop still do that?). There's nothing wrong with that. It's harmless. The issue is when you start going around acting like a walrus. That's entering the realm of delusion.

I don't mean it isn't harmless. It usually is.

But should we give Otherkin the same rights as Trans people or group them together?

Or should we treat it as a serious thing?

A good way to put it is that being Trans means to identify as a different gender. This is very natural and happens to many.

Otherkin means to identify as a different species. This is also natural(or can be), but not something that can easily be changed to when it comes to science. And no, there's nothing wrong with it either.

These are not identical situations, keep in mind.
