@winter then what is it

@Hunterrules0_o the word you’re looking for is cis (from latin: cis: “this side of,” trans: “that side of”). nobody is only attracted to cis people because a cis woman and a trans woman could look identical and you wouldn’t know which to not be attracted to. some straight people think they aren’t attracted to trans people because they’re transphobic though.

@winter Depends alot of the time. I could probally guess about 76% percent of the time for people who have taken hrt less than 1-1/5 years. But alot of the time its in the hands or index finger. But I feel like I could tell 86% of the time if I was romantically interested in them because I would be paying more attention and I was seeing them in real life.

@Hunterrules0_o where did you learn this stuff?

@winter There was a study long ago I dont remember where about telling gender between hands. it basically said that the bones in a male hand are longer near the pointer(id have to bring it up but its one of those things you can tell over time). Basically bones are unchangeable. there the one part of the body that once you reach adulthood don't change.
Its not 100% accurate all the time but for white/caucasian people it works about 98% of the time

@Hunterrules0_o yeah that isn’t scientifically accurate. that’s transvestigator pseudoscience.
you’re just a kid right? get off of those hate forums. you don’t have to go down that path. you don’t have to end up miserable and hateful and obsessed about strangers’ bodies like them. you can choose a better life.

@trans_caracal @Hunterrules0_o @winter yeah, that kid is really in with the wrong crowd, to put it in easier words hunter consider taking the “I have better shit to enjoy” pill, and focus on the things you enjoy in life, get into war hammer 40k, play Minecraft, etc instead of focusing any energy on trying to find trans people (which you’re unlikely to meet in real life anyway since they’re generally rare)

@Clover @trans_caracal @winter I literally have nothing better to do than to sit browsing mastodon all day during online school.
-
@Hunterrules0_o @trans_caracal @winter well, go on a better instance then, or read some books, some nice fiction novels (like the warhammer 40k stuff for example, or any other novel series)

@winter @Clover @trans_caracal I have things to do in my freetime. most of the stuff I learn is when im doomscrolling on my phone at night before going to bed
-
@Hunterrules0_o @winter @trans_caracal well, what I’m saying is, you should doomscroll in better places that aren’t fixated on the length of trans people’s fingers and such
Generally, people who want to “figure out who’s cis or trans” aren’t good people, they’re generally transphobic and want to be able to figure it out so they can discriminate and out trans people that are hiding to harm them

@Hunterrules0_o @Clover @trans_caracal that’s a great time to read a book. do you like science fiction? I bet you would.

Posting Wojaks in response isn't exactly proving them wrong.Also, wandering into discussions, saying dumb things like you knew them as facts, then responding with memes is what got you banned from TechHub.

@Clover @Hunterrules0_o @trans_caracal @winter
Honestly Hunter, "find something better to do than talk to whoever's normalizing this stuff with you, like reading books" is some of the best advice you could be taking.Why not go read some Cory Doctorow novels? Maybe dig into Eliezer Yudkowsky's "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality"? Or go back to the classics like "Ringworld" or "Snowcrash", or literally anything at your school's library.
Honestly, we would all rather you post about the age-appropriate fiction you're reading than claims that one can reliably tell a transwoman from a ciswoman: most victims of anti-trans violence ARE ciswomen.

...since when is reading sci-fi something you can't do if you have free time and a social life? When I was your age, and even to this day, I would spend some free time reading books, then talk with my friends about those books.
