what do you love that everybody else hates?

Post Reply New Topic

This is me being completely stupid, so please accept the ignorance for what it is.

If I remember correctly, you are transgender....

So, are gender identifying with female and resent having to 'doll up'?

Are you gender identifying with male and resent having to still 'doll up'?

My question is sincere. If you wish to reply in private, no problem. If you wish to not reply, no problem. I realize it's a sensitive issue. Just trying to make heads or tails out of, what for me, is something I am completely inexperienced about.

I have no trouble being ignorant. I just don't wish to remain ignorant.

I don't know what I am.
An "it", probably.

Things I love that everyone else hates:

the Orthodox Catholic Church and its precepts
religion in general

things I hate that many seem to love:
popular culture, especially the music -- my God it is so unbelievably terrible now -- no texture, appealing to the basest desires, it's all just like about turning into a pig
"Progressivism"
Atheism
whatever issue the western news is currently trying to shove down our throats
crowded and noisy places

VII. Vegetables or fruit on my pizza. I think that Anger from Inside Out summed it up perfectly when he said "Congratulations, San Francisco! You've ruined pizza! First the Hawaiians and now you!" The only time there should be a fruit or vegetable on my pizza is when there's the tomato sauce between the crust and the cheese. Come to think of it, I wouldn't mind fruit if it's a dessert pizza (not that I've ever had dessert pizza before ).
VIII. I hate it when people stand on escalators. I believe that escalators are meant to be walked up or down to get you quickly from one level to the next, but people standing still on them just annoys me. I can't stand slowpokes like that.
IX. Most of WatchMojo.com's countdown videos. IMO, WatchMojo.com is like the Oscars for the following reasons: I. I very rarely ever agree with them, II. They often leave me feeling pissed off after watching them, and III. For some unknown reason, I keep coming back to it. It's essentially and abusive relationship. Most of their videos I find either completely inaccurate as they often do really sh***y research on a lot of their entries, lacking the proper order, or just completely unnecessary. Some examples of this include the fact that they had Scar as the #1 Disney Villain (really? The character that turns into a whiny little primadonna in the second half? Everyone knows that the best Disney Villain is Judge Claude Frollo from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame.) or when they created a Top 10 Animated Villain Songs Excluding Disney list (Hey dips**t! There aren't enough good animated non Disney villain songs out there to even justify a Top 10 list let alone have an Honorable Mentions category. Honestly, that category was a f*****g joke.) among others. But the one list I hate the most is their Top 10 Worst Hollywood Remakes list where they featured Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. Something that really pisses me off is when people refer to Charlie as a remake of Willy Wonka because it's not. It's an adaptation of the original book. Even on the Wikipedia page for the movie it says that it's the second adaptation of the book by the same name, so, by principle, it shouldn't even be on this list. Though to be fair, there are a few of their videos that I did enjoy. For instance, I enjoyed their Top 10 Mermaids In Film And TV list, I appreciated that they put The Little Mermaid above The Lion King in their Top 10 Animated Movies Of All Time video, I liked that My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic cracked the top 5 in their Top 10 Cartoon Shows Of The 2010s list, and (even though I felt like Defying Gravity should've been higher up) I loved the #1 choice on their Top 10 Songs From Musical Theater list as it's a song that I really connect to on a personal level on account of it reminding me of my grandma who passed away from Stage 4 Lung Cancer about 2 1/2 years ago. But that's just me.
X. I f*****g despise that dumbass "Clean up" song. You know the one. The one that goes "Clean up clean up everybody everywhere. Clean up clean up everybody do your share." Oh God is that song ear poison to me. My mom used to sing it a lot when I was younger even when I was already cleaning up and it never made me clean up any faster. If anything, it just made me do it slower as the song did nothing but aggravate me.
XI. For some unknown reason, I hate when people end a sentence with words like "lunch", "hands", "exercise", or even begin sentences with words like "tonight". Like I said, no idea why this is the case.
XII. I really hate the term "around the bend" when used in songs and, just like my last entry, I don't have a clue as to where this hatred came from.
XIII. The word "tummy". See III.
XIV. The word "scrumptious". Something about it just doesn't sound right to me.

Ok, I can follow that. I've been an 'it' for a part of my life. One last question if I may, and please let me know if I am prying too much.

Why the chafing on the girlie stuff? Why not just forego it and do what you want?

I'm trying to dope out if this is familial pressure, societal pressure or personal pressure.

No matter what the answer is, my reply will be this:
Be yourself. It will be the only way you can be happy. I've read your posts and seen your art. You seem to be a nice person. Yes we have difficulties here, but that is not a measure of good or bad.

Just be you. The you I see here is a pretty cool person.

The reply remains no matter what. The questions are me trying to make sense of something that I do not understand. Although I may understand a bit having been an 'it' at some point. But, I hope you understand my questions.

Ahhh, the stupid things we parents do when we are trying to inspire our kids.......Although, just to tick off my ex wife at times, I would do Barney Impressions.......

A lot of languages have gender neutral pronouns. Maybe you could research one and decide if you'd want to use it. That way you don't have to be an "it", which is something used to describe objects or animals.

In Mandarin, "ta" is used for he/she and him/her. It is written differently to indicate gender, but sounds the same when spoken.

That's nice.
I usually get called 'shemale'.
Or lezzo.

Regarding beets, I want to become good at cooking and preparing fresh beets. I'm proud to like beets since sometimes people I meet dislike them or have never tried them. I dislike mushrooms and raw onions, as well as olives. Overall I really like most foods (not raw oysters).

What's wrong with self-referring as an 'it' / or lack of set designation?
We are animals too..

Things I hate that a lot of people seem to like:

- cupcakes
- Donald Trump.


Things I like that a lot of people seem to hate:

- BUGS!! !!
- watching surgery while eating
- pickled beets
- kale
- hog's head cheese
- chicken heart

Apparently Finnish, Cantonese, and Persian also do not distinguish gender with pronouns.

And written Chinese did not distinguish gender in pronouns until the New Culture Movement, in an effort to be more western. So the characters are different now.

I personally like the Mandarin method, because you don't have to know the gender of the person to refer to him/her, and it's easier to remember. Singular ta is he/she/him/her/it, while tamen is they/them.

Because when people think of animals, they think of something less than human, not equal to humans. I personally value animals and their lives, but many don't. So it's become a way to disrespect someone by implying that they are like objects or worth less than other people.

Gotcha. I don't refer to non-human animals as 'it' for that very reason. They are just as much entities and Not objects as we are.. (Same reason i cross off 'owner' on all vet forms

I guess i read it differently when Raleigh referred to herself as such.. In that case, i thought of it more as perhaps androgeny, and not really any particular label.

I greatly dislike the terms "nerdgasm" and "fangasm", they are stupid terms that have a sexual undertone, and that gets a double thumbs down from me.

I greatly dislike that the Transformer and Bionicle fandoms are associated in some circles with the "brony" fandom. I have no interest in the pastel-colored horse show, and it greatly displeases me when someone assumes that I am a "Brony" because I liked (before it was rebooted into a new Hero factory) Bionicle.

I don't care for the whole social media thing, fads, celebrities, the latest diet, twerking (which when I first heard it, I though it was a sexual term), twittering, facebook, or anything like these.

Things that I do like that the vast majority of people seem to hate are:

Watching Youtubes of predatory animals hunting and or killing their prey.
Insects, spiders and other "icky" species.
Reptiles.
When I write (yes, I write in my free time) I tend to go into subjects that others shy away from.

For starters, at least.

Good lord do i hate mayonnaise, it tastes disgusting and ruins just about anything It's put on. Why people like this evil condiment i will never understand
