I roam CB every day, I've met a lot of cool people on there and I'm starting to make friends. But honestly I keep seeing posts about gender and people being "special snowflakes" and stuff and I can't help but feel hurt? I'm trying to grow a "thicker skin" with all of this but honestly I'm impulsive and sensitive I'll admit it, those are some character flaws. I'm nonbinary - possibly bigender. People would probably think I'm "gender special" or whatever and it just...hurts I guess? I dunno. It's dumb I know. I'm sorry I needed to rant about this. sweatdrop

uuuguh yeah it's the same for me :/ I can hardly go into CB because of it it's really kind of stressful. This isn't dumb at all! Sometimes you gotta vent and even thought growing a "thicker skin" is a good idea, we've all got things that really hit nerves, ya know?

I'm so glad someone feels the same way with roaming CB @_@ i can't go a day without seeing a post joking about gender and, I have gotten into some petty arguments about it, trust me. But yeah, I mean I'm trying not to be so impulsive and argue because in the end I think it'll just stress me and hurt me more, but honestly there ARE some things that just hit a total nerve :/ jokes about gender definitely being one of them. (and to be honest I don't have a lot that gets on my nerves, but that definitely does.)

Yeah, I understand. It can be hard but arguing with idiots seldom does good unfortunately but sometimes it can be hard to help it. ;; But that's why I don't really go on CB anymore myself sweatdrop

I completely understand why you feel that way. It's not dumb at all.
Tbh- Not so long ago I was in this stupid denial phase (?) and I'd make a lot of stupid jokes towards myself on chatterbox. Idk. I thought that by joking about it I'd feel better or something?? Hah.. I'm not proud of that. But meh. I'm glad I realized how stupid I was being, and how it wasn't helping me or the community at all.
But yeah- try to not let them get to you! A lot of them probably have issues with themselves, trust me. And you don't have to be sorry about venting/ranting. Your identity is completely valid, and you have every right to be hurt when stuff like that is said.

i understand what you mean, it's ok! but thank you... it can be kind of awkward and because of the type of person I am sometimes i act out irrationally out of impulse and end up arguing with people from time to time :/
