Bri: I think that's fairly common for minority sexualities, and even sometimes for the major ones. Like parents who have no issue with homosexuals, but who tell their son that he's not actually gay--this is just a phase he'll grow out of. Often times transexuals (as well as pansexuals) face people who are aware that these things exist, but just don't believe that this person actually is one--and unfortunately there's not really anything you can do to prove it.

And yes, she knew that her girlfriend/boyfriend was a transexual. Actually, when I visited them at their apartment the first time, I wasn't immediately aware that his sex was actually female--he looked so much like a boy, and a handsome one at that.

Cami: Oh, yeah, I definitely get that from my dad, too. Maybe I should just start humping everything that moves. >_> (not really, that'd be absurd.) I think it's just a lack of tolerance among people, because no matter how tolerant you try to be, it's hard to be tolerant of everything, and things you don't fully understand will definitely slip through the cracks.

Ah, that's cool. It sucks in couples when one of them doesn't know the other is a tran. :< And maybe it's idealistic of me to think that couples should be fully honest with one another (hecks, my boyfriend doesn't even know I'm a pan!), but it's hard for me to see my transsexual friend as anything but his preferred gender, so it's hard to see how they'd keep that preference a secret.

It's hard to be accepting of everything. And the fact is that it's far easier to be accepting of things that you never run into. Like, it's easy to say you're fine with gays, but be uncomfortable when you're actually near one, or to say that of course you're not racist and that blacks and whites are equal, but then feel scared when a black man is near. It's not right, but it is human nature. All you can do is be honest, and the more time you spend with people, the more comfortable they'll become with the idea.

Its not the quantity of items, its the quality of the avatar. More items would have taken away the effect you created.

Thanks, guys! I was quite fond of my avatar this round, so I'm glad you guys liked it too. XD

Iro: Yours was definitely one of the best, in that it was obvious what stereotype you were portraying.

Anyone notice that the layering changed on shosho's bustiers again?



Goes on the same layer as the odyssey suits. All of them do : (

@Cami- I second that. I wish it were as easy for humans as a whole to change our perspectives as we claim it is, but it's impossible to change nature, so the only thing we can really hope to do is support those who need it regardless of race, gender, orientation, etc.

I call theme Sho's bustiers because there was a pixel contest a while back that users got to participate in, and shosho actually pixeled the winning item set and got to have her set turned into actual items with minor adjustments.

No, but I did notice these boots I am currently wearing are not on the boot layer. xD
And I almost went and bought those too, earlier, to specifically use with a combo with the suit. D:

The only think I wish was on another layer is the over skirts from the Winter event. I think they should be on the same level as the Acid green, Tarnished teal, pleasantly purple overskirts and both be taken above where they are.

OH, there's a grammar error! It should have a comma after the 2nd "drunk" x.x;
