Yeah no, I was ugly before and now I’m an ugly trans person. Being like this is obviously way better than how I was before transitioning for multiple personal reasons, but it’s not some magical miracle cure to looks. I think people say that because transitioning makes them feel so much better about themselves, so they stop perceiving and judging themselves so negatively. The boost in confidence probably makes them seem “hotter” too, since people tend to perceive confidence to be attractive after all

I didn’t honestly even think about that. Being from the nordics means throwing them outside is the same as killing them most of the year and keeping them all out is kinda impossible, they’ll find their way in because outside is cold

*(edit for managing to cut the text in half)

They’re actually pretty beneficial (eating other more annoying bugs and all that) and usually not harmful to human residents in any way (except if you live in Australia). Killing them because “aah yuck spiders!” isn’t a good enough reason to many

I’ve never understood the argument that you shouldn’t complain about the environment you interact with because other people interact with worse environments.

I call this the “children of Africa” -argument. Basically, it’s an argument that you can never complain about anything or do anything to better something, because “some kids are starving in Africa”; someone always has it worse. It’s purpose is to belittle and brush aside either the problem worded out or the person saying it (or both).

The downside is, neither can any adult. I think the first name limitations should only apply to kids; legal adults should be able to change their names to whatever they want, no matter how stupid it is. It could only hurt themselves after all
