My friends think I'm a lesbian, because I've never had a bf and I don't do much girly stuff.

I told them I'm a trans man and they told me "that trans stuff is fake" and are pressuring me to go with them to this thing to meet some guys Wednesday.

Should I go with them just to get them off my case or should I stand my ground and contest their whole "trans people aren't real" thing.

>The problem with spaces like Tumblr and others, they normalize minority and extreme opinions in an echo chamber just like how 4chan normalizes racism and other such things.
My friends said it, "Tumblr is for people who obsess over shit that don't matter". I agree there are a lot of people like that there, but there are also a lot of really talented people posting there.
>Are you attracted to men? Are you attracted to women?
No, I'm not attracted to anybody. When I was growing up and I didn't like any guys, my family always said I'd start liking them in a year or two.
I'm 20 now and I really just don't have any care about sex. The whole concept just feels kind of revulsive, fluids and...not into it. I'd rather just enjoy my own company, avoid people putting gross stuff in or on me, and stick to my hobbies. My friends think if I "try things out" I'll change my mind so they keep bugging me to go out with them.

Maybe you’re asexual? That’s another good area to look for self reflecting. Some asexual people find that for the right person they can be sexually active with but for some it seems like it’s not for them at all. There’s an /lgbt/ board you might already know but it might be just time to figure out if you want to present differently or not and what you want out of a relationship.

>there are also a lot of really talented people posting there.
Tumblr is the platform that generally is more favorable toward the liberal left and those who push those ideas. It is not at all surprising that these influences are pushing you toward trans things, but you are simply you and no amount of propaganda will ever take that from you. Just be yourself.

>No, I'm not attracted to anybody. When I was growing up and I didn't like any guys
Nor do you like girls. It sounds like asexuality. I had an asexual girlfriend before. Very similar, she also had a preference for men's clothing and style. She was not a lesbian or trans, just preferred those things.

>I feel like I'd be happier as a guy
That's because this is a man's world. My fiance often laments that she has to be a woman because of the way women are treated and viewed. Especially growing up on WoW. People do not respect women and actively threaten women often so it's natural to not want to be a woman.

You’re stuck in a loop of disappointment, and that eats away at self-respect. Start with one small win—something you can finish in a day. Clean your place, show up to rehearsal early, anything. Small proof that you can follow through builds confidence.

You forgave your girlfriend because you don’t want to be alone, but deep down you know you deserve better. Don’t chase big fixes yet—just do one thing each day that makes you feel like you respect yourself, even a little. That’s how you start digging out.

Why does society teach us that we should ignore problems and be the bigger man when faced with confrontation when doing these are the fastest ways to lose respect from others? I look back at all the times I've apologized when I was clearly in the right and I highly doubt it ever made the other person think about their actions. And even though other people saw it, they never gave me a pat on the back or acknowledged me being the "better" person for not escalating or defending myself, even when it would have been justified. They always just pretend they didn't see anything. Or even worse, they probably just assume I was at fault because I apologized and internalize it subconsciously, forever painting their perception of me as a weak bitch.

I feel like it's the latter because I've never been respected and people treat all my achievements as flukes instead of real competence even though I feel like I've proven my abilities time and time again. My merits just don't speak for themselves I guess... I also think people are inclined towards the more cynical way of thinking because they lack empathy, act in bad faith by immediately assuming the worst, and don't care enough to put in the effort to see who was actually in the right once the dust settles. Even when I'm shown to be right in the end, everyone who saw just pretends they forgot or that it never happened and never acknowledge it. But they still keep with them that mental image of me and my "weakness" that they picked up on and was imprinted subconsciously.

So basically the human mind is very generalistic with violence, more or less non-discriminant. For example in execution towards a mass murderer, Someone very uncomfortable with this concept unlikely to start a fight in their lives unless they absolutely must, and vice versa. Situation that justify *some* violence justify *all* directionless violence in a person's psychology.

Add to this that aggression can develop or be conditioned, and violence is inherently cyclical and changes your worldview, and crimes spiral in severity and you're starting to see my point. In arab shitholes where violence is required to constantly produce more jihadists and terrorists the society intentionally practices things like executions, wifebeatings, and indoctrination to facilitate those needs. this a calculated known metric that influences policy.

You live in a high trust society that relies on you not being mugged or raped at random and that society wants to keep it that way, that's why you can NEVER EVER EVER fight back even if you are currently being beaten, go to a teacher or something. Even if you kill yourself from abuse, simply allow him to scream at you, let the woman punch you. If you fight back you'll be severely punished and shamed. If the abuse traumatizes or even kills you on a societal level this is better than allowing *some* violence no matter how justified.

Of course, humans were meant for some violence. But you aren't supposed to think that.

>>33929240
that's cool, but I was talking more about defending my decisions or stances from verbal accusations, not really physical confrontations. Society just likes to preach tolerance and civil conduct, but there will always be the primal revulsion to someone who is reserved and seemingly unaffected by stimuli. Not fighting back or defending yourself is strange and the psyche finds it dangerous and will always respect someone who is imposing because it's a clear demonstration of strength. Even if we understand that someone not fighting back doesn't mean they can't fight back, the damage has already been done.

And sure, this certainly traces back to unga bunga violence = strength and signals to others the alpha of the tribe, but it still applies to how we conduct ourselves in a society. Sure, it's nice that you put aside your beliefs for a quick compromise or solution, but everyone will see it as weakness in some form especially if you do it repeatedly. It's stupid that we have to be selfish and hurt people over shit that doesn't matter just to get our point across and get the respect and recognition owed to us.

Do you have high standards? Just date someone, anyone. preferably with similar hobbies to you. being short is really not a factor desu. People always aim for 8/9/10 women. but imho most people are pretty good looking. I dont really like numbering people like this but I find more normal/average men and women more appealing which allows yourself to cast a wide net in the dating pool. Be ready to accept their flaws as well.

>>33914990
Carefully consider whether dating is for you. Your default value is low, so you will either have to massively overcompensate with years of effort, or wait until women's value fall into your default range.

Regardless of what you decide to do about women you should still aim not to be a loser, take advantage of your manlet gains and at least be the strongest in any group by far.

This is a cope. Women seek multiple partners so they are able to acquire different resources. You are correct that ideally women want a man who can provide all resources in one package (genes + status + physical resources) but this is rarely the case. So women engage in strategic pluralism (surely you've heard of this if you know evolutionary psychology), ie beta bux alpha fux.

For some reason I don't like being in relationships with non virgins, it's like if a girl has even kissed another guy or especially had sex with them I see them as disqualified from a life partner or someone worthy of love so the relationship is doomed from the start and no matter how much fun we have or how good the intimacy gets its like I know something is past its expiration date

How can I change this mindset, there are so few virgins that aren't insanely fat or mentally ill

Picrel describes me pretty accurately. 27, never been in a relationship, virgin. Not extroverted or outgoing, never really learned to socialize effectively.

Stumbled through college with nothing to show for it. Made just a few friends (and eventually drifted from them), didn’t gain any new skills or hobbies. Manages to luck into a good job and career, which is the only thing I have to show for myself.

Tried going to meetups, clubs etc but felt really awkward and wasn’t sure I was wanted. Eventually got comfortable with being myself and stopped trying. But that’s probably even worse, and not sure where to begin fixing myself now

Its not too late anon. Other people will tell you it is, but they want to drag you down with them. My best advice at your age (Yeah I'm an oldfag) is to keep your hygiene up to date. Make sure you shower, shave, and hair is trimmed or at least not like a birds nest. Keep your skin clean and clear, your teeth white, and your breath smelling nice. Dress simply, but in something that fits; never more than two handlengths from your body, preferably one. Too baggy and you look fat, too tight and you look like a tryhard. Speaking of fat, exercise and at least keep trim. You don't have to be a /fit/ fag, but you should be maintaining aroud 2,000 calories/day and getting at least 30 minutes of exercise every few days. Eat more fruit and veggies, switch to 0 sugar shit, and drink more water. You should also get a social hobby that gets you out of the house. You don't have to give up video games, anime, or stop jerking to porn, but pick up something where you meet people. Whether thats a book club, an art gallery viewing, local concerts, or shit like that. Also pick up nonfiction books in something that interests you and learn it. Give something beyond your popular media interests to think about. Overall the goal is just to make yourself look put together, and like you have shit going on in your life. Best case scenario is you meet someone, worst case is you pick up a new hobby and interest and feel and look better/cleaner. Good luck.
