Yay! Thanks! :)

I haven’t really thought about the other ones, but I remember for sure that being naked and looking at nudity bothers me.

Oooohh, I haven’t. Thanks for this!

  1. Probably, they seem really cool :)

  2. Hmmm… 🤔 I’d go with Velociraptor, used to be T-Rex when I was younger.

Thank you. Sadly, it seems Lena’s friend isn’t accepting what she’s doing is wrong. If she knows it’s wrong, she doesn’t care and thinks they deserve it.

My sister Lena is 14. She has this one “friend” who is very odd from what I’ve seen? She’s known for being rude to almost anyone who isn’t popular at her school and yells at Lena for stupid crap.

She tells Lena she’s horrible at everything, talks behind her back, says she can’t be in her friend group, then says she’s “joking”.

Whenever something happens to anger the friend, she blames Lena and when she gets punished, she seems to have the mindset of “If I’m going down, Lena is going down with me.”

Lena came to the U.S. with our family when she was nine, so this friend is also very focused on her being foreign and won’t stop talking about her being white for some reason?

From what I know and have seen from this girl coming over sometimes, she finds random things to discriminate people for and also “almost” says the N-word (You “ni.. ninja!) against dark-skinned people or the K-word (“kite” instead of…) against Jewish people to “be funny”.

Lena’s other friend who came over one day also told me that the friend was discriminatory, finding random reasons to insult someone (even them because they’re neurodivergent), and that they were having problems with her.

I’m helping Lena figure it out. Lena doesn’t hang out with this girl for now, but I still gotta rant. Why are people even like this?

Ok, makes a lot of sense. :) I’m sex repulsed and asexual

Thank you for being respectful. I am more than happy to answer :)

  1. Artistic nudes are fine unless detailed depictions are included. Most of the time, yes, any form of nudity from a person triggers my phobia. Cleavage (or people in bras) is fine with me but not the whole deal, especially not with the nipples.

  2. I do, actually!

  3. I try 😅 If I don’t look at myself too much, it can be okay.

Thanks, and you’re welcome!!

I think this started sometime at age 11 during puberty. I was disgusted by things like sex scenes on TV, and was disgusted by anything involving nudity, which included having to look at my growing breasts.

If I don’t look at it, I tend to be fine and can wash myself. Soap can also cover a great deal of the area.

Not really, as I’ve never had to dress in front of anyone, nor have they in front of me. When they discuss sex or people being nude in front of them though it can irk me a lot.

 

Title. I don’t know what to consider it, whether it stems from body dysmorphia or whatever but I have a general (although not extremely impairing) fear and discomfort of nudity. This may be common, though I haven’t met anyone who’s as uncomfortable with nudity and their own body as I am.

Yeah… I’m not sure, she seems to acknowledge the behavior but doesn’t seem to acknowledge the severity, impact, or morality of it.

That makes sense. I mean, my sister has shown me messages from her and this friend, where the friend does indeed admit to doing this, but says “Yeah, well I only do this to people who deserve it” and stuff about people being useless.

Thanks so much, though :)

It seems that the LGBT ones we got are for news and I don’t want to post random stuff about for example, my boyfriend, on a news community.

 

My 14-year-old sister Lena has made a friend who is constantly picking on Lena for the slightest things, calling her weird, screaming at her in social situations and in athletics, saying she is useless, etc. [my sister has mobility issues and asthma as well]

Fortunately, Lena told me that she and another friend of hers stopped hanging out with the friend but the teachers still want her paired up with this girl? (No one else will hang out with Lena’s friend because her friend group is preppy and very cliquey)

The friend is also doing the classic “You can’t be friends with those girls and leave me, they don’t like you/understand you like I do. I’m the only one who will accept you.”

Yeah, I don’t really know how to help as I don’t go to her school and I’m obviously several years older than her

 

I’m still fairly young and hear many women my age making certain references, using slang, or memes related to the U.S. and American culture.

Sometimes, I don’t understand the references though, as I do speak English but grew up where people did not.

My parents grew up in the US and speak English but of course, only really know the pop culture of their day.

Does anyone else (especially people who grew up somewhere else) not understand Anglophone slang or pop culture?

 

I don’t mean morally wrong, I know that sexuality is a spectrum, that everyone is different, and I shouldn’t let anyone tell me how to describe myself, I mean wrong terminology.

Like how a man who’s attracted to other men wouldn’t call himself straight for example.

I’m certainly not straight, even if there’s one woman I’ve ever liked and the rest were men, I still liked a girl.

I would definitely date regardless of gender but only one women has really been attractive to me. Although I’d date and love regardless, other genders don’t really give me the spark men do.

If I dated a man who transitioned to nonbinary or transfem, I would still love them regardless and wouldn’t lose my interest in him.

I consider myself attracted to women maybe ~5% of the time, 95% other genders (most of the 95% is male but IDK the exact percentage on that part)

Would omni/bi be a better description?

 

ADHD, I feel like I stopped aging mentally after freshman year.

 

Seriously, what’s the significance of the word? There are many teens in my neighborhood, as well as me having a teenage sister, who laugh hysterically at the word.

Some people will respond with “Wanna know what else is massive?” Is this a sex joke or something?

[I live in the US now but grew up where many people did not speak English so I may not understand jokes that well even if my parents are English speakers.]
