  • If your child came out to you, how did you adjust?

  • Queer parent with a queer kid here. I've been on both sides of this situation.

    The best thing you can do is be openly and actively supportive of your child. Leave them with no doubt that you love them, you recognise them and are happy for them and that you will support them.

    After that, just listen to what they need.

    If you can do that, the rest doesn't matter. You will absolutely fuck up and say the wrong thing at some point. That's fine. It's inevitable. What's important isn't avoiding the situation, but how you respond after. If they know that you love them, that you're trying your best, and you can learn from your mistakes, that's what matters.

    Your kid will tell you what they need, even if it's just the space to work out what they need. Just listen :)

  • The first trans person I ever spoke to in depth was a trans guy, and I walked away with that exact feeling. Like, I'd never met someone who knew what I was going through before and could understand things that I didn't even have words for. Yet at the same time, I was completely thrown by the idea that someone would find joy and authenticity in something I was yearning to be free of

  • I started playing in 1989, I've played every edition and even got published in a couple of the sourcebooks, so it was a good choice for a tattoo :)

    I had a friend tweak it though so people who know Shadowrun will recognise it, but it doesn't look like a logo to people who don't recognise it

  • Estrogen!

    Unfortunately, it will be my only colour tattoo, because I had a hell of time healing that one. My body has rejected all of my piercings over the years, and clearly didn't like the colours either. It seems to handle blacks just fine though

  • feel really weird not being able to do a masc voice anymore

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's a training/use thing. When I was training my voice back in the day, I could still do my old voice, but I had to consciously stop and think about it and try to remember how to do it.

  • It can only be compared with people who have made their data public. Which to be fair, can still lead to family members, even if the match themselves hasn't shared their data.

    But on the other hand, tough shit. The needs of the kid growing up without support from both of their parents matters more than the runaway parent who is trying to hide from their kid.

  • What's a scientific fact that sounds made up but is 100% real?

    Jump

  • It depends what you mean. Testosterone makes a difference. It improves blood oxygen levels and cardio capacity, and it increases strength (it's a steroid).

    And depending on the context, the difference is larger. Men tend to have stronger hand grip than women for example, to the extent, there is very little overlap. But if you look at leg strength, the distributions are different, but they overlap significantly. And when you start to look at things like long distance endurance events, the distributions are even closer.

    However, none of those things align with "men" or "women". They align with "the dominant sex hormone in your body", and your capacity shifts as your sex hormones shift.

  • That's not an answer, because if life is common, then the chance of us being the first is minuscule.

    Lets say that life can only form around main sequence G type stars (ie, like our sun). There is no reason to believe this is true, but lets say it is for this example. The universe is 14 billion years old, and the sun is 4.5 billion years old. Lets round it to 4 billion years old when life first formed.

    Now, the earliest G type stars formed approximately 1 billion years after the universe formed. Lets say that life can only develop when those stars were at least 4 billion years old. That puts the earliest possible scenario where life formed at 5 billion years after the universe formed, and that was 9 billion years ago. Low balling it, there are approximately 7 billion g type main sequence stars current in our galaxy.

    All together, that means the chance of us simply being the first is very low, and if we are the first, then life isn't common, and if life isn't common, the underlying reason for that is the answer to the fermi paradox.
