You sound fat

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

no, they are still an invasive species.

come back in a couple thousand years and you might be able to make a point about them being effectively native now.

it's because common perspective has shifted with a greater understanding of things like the ecological impact of free-roaming cats, and the dangers to the cat from parasites and diseases that can pretty much only be contracted by outdoor animals. predators play a part, but they're far from the only factor. look at our parents' and grandparents' generations, and outdoor cats were considered normal in north america too, and the predatory species weren't any different then.

Make sure the game even allows that sort of character first. A lot won't accept mythological characters unless they're from a specific work of fiction depicting that character.

If they do allow it, approach it as if you're apping an OC, and be prepared to be told to tone them way the fuck down if you're apping something like a god.

okay, see, that makes sense. if that's how you want to use the word, you do that, you're certainly not the only one.

but then, in your terms, what am i? i'm not heterosexual. i'm not homosexual. i'm not bisexual. i have a libido, but i have never experienced sexual attraction. i don't think it makes me oppressed, i don't ~want a special label~, i just like being able to use a word for a real thing instead of going into bullshit detail if someone asks. because, you know, that's what humans do when we isolate a new concept, we don't call it "that one bird that's kind of like that other bird except it's green", we give it a name. denying a name is to deny that the concept exists, which is willfully stupid, because it does exist.

asexual fits the conceptual pattern (an identifier based on what gendered characteristics you are and aren't attracted to) to the naming pattern (hetero/homo/bisexual). people use it because it makes sense. what's your suggested alternative?

I'm sorry to hear you're having a poorly experience, anon. I'm going to flit around and see if I can hit up any LCWs on stuff personally, because no one should feel left out. I'm the kind of person who sees untouched posts and fidgets about correcting that, so I'll definitely keep an eye out for you. :)

hopefully i have a character you will have fun responding to.

anon above you

i'm sorry to hear it's been rough to get started for you.

admittedly i'm one of those players who prefers to have ooc plotting done first (it's been a busy couple of months and that helps me juggle thread-load) but if you'd like to play and feel comfortable doing so, feel free to hit me up on "sockblocker" any time. i'd love the chance for some new CR!

Says AVEN. That doesn't make it right wen none of you can define "sexual attraction" because you think everyone "allosexual" is like a horny teenager from bad movies who wants to fuck everyone they see constantly.

That's what we're aiming for. So far, everyone's just kind of dipping their toes in, but we really wanted to make something where the players work with the mods to create the plot and the gamespace together.

Except only a few idiots think that, but for some reason people seem to be super obsessed with the idea that asexual people care how much sex other people are or aren't having. But since you seem to believe that orientation DOES have to do with how much and what kind of sex you're having, it's not that surprising.

And don't be purposefully obtuse. Sexual attraction isn't a complicated concept: it's the difference in how you feel about someone you're attracted to versus someone you're not. If you're straight, it's the difference between how you feel about someone attractive of the opposite sex and how you feel about someone attractive of the same sex. Etc etc with different specifics for different orientations. And, in case it wasn't TOTALLY OBVIOUS, sexual attraction =/= sexual activity, which comes back to the whole point of this conversation in that who you're attracted to (or not) doesn't always have anything to do with whether or not you have sex.

B. cis lesbians will throw themselves at trans men /transphobic

Do lesbians do something specific when hitting on trans guys in your experience that is transphobic? If a lesbian woman is attracted to a trans man (how) should she approach him?

If there's one thing about being trans that you could make common and widely accepted knowledge, what would it be?

> If there's one thing about being trans that you could make common and widely accepted knowledge, what would it be?

that 99% of online mtf trannies are actually autogynephiliac fetishists and also giant wankers to be avoided whenever possible

ftm trans people are much rarer because they are actually what they claim to be
