  • Then try being legitimately interesting, rather than co-opting an identity that doesn’t actually belong to you.

    Also there’s nothing wrong with “basic.” Most of us are basic in some ways and interesting in other ways. Surely being straight and liking Starbucks and TikTok is not the sum total of who you are. Figure out the ways in which you’re unique and interesting. If you don’t think there are enough, then put the time into developing new hobbies. Personal growth is amazing. But don’t lie about who you are. That’s way worse than being basic.

    ETA: I forgot to mention, based on this:

    I want to be spicy and strong, not just like a girl who starts drama and complains like your average basic girl.

    you should get your internalized misogyny figured out. Like, pronto.













  • you’d know if someone was actually identifying as an attack helicopter as opposed to trolling by saying so, right?

    IRL maybe, but the issue here is that (at least from what I’ve observed) dragonfucker can be pretty confrontational, as if seeking a fight. It’s obnoxious behavior and generally I roll my eyes and move along. I do think identifying as a “dragonfucker” for gender is hard to take as anything other than a long-running troll job, particularly because 1) dragons aren’t real and even if they were, 2) “dragonfucker” is surely a hobby or job description, not a gender. Most reasonable people would find this ludicrous at first glance, and have their opinion confirmed by this user’s strident tone and eagerness to take offense. It seems really unlikely that this person sincerely identifies as a dragonfucker (and honestly I can’t even believe we’re having this debate).

    I really try to be balanced and understanding, but this user in particular seems to seek negative attention. Which is fine I guess, but I feel bad for anyone who falls into that trap.
