I’m sure it’s unintended, but this gives off anti-trans vibes to me.
Like, “You don’t want to be Angela. That’d be a waste of the incredible Andy you are!”
I look at it the opposite way. Be the incredible Angela you know you are deep inside. You don’t need to be stuck in the Andy suit your whole life.
But mostly for me it gave vibes of “be yourself. You’re plenty groovy just being you.”
It isn’t precisely anti-trans, it is more wide “You’re too dumb to understand which exactly your behavioral traits need improvement, let alone actually change them.”
But obviously the author meant no harm and wanted to draw something wholesome.
Imo this is toxic advice.
If I want to change it can be hard enough for me.
A meme telling me to stop changing adds to the pile to overcome.
Yes, regularly. That’s probably the biggest reason i gravitate towards transhumanism.
Through mechanical enhancements i can become whatever is needed of me under specific circumstances. With brain implants it’s possible to automate some parts of life or to improve memory and recall abilities or even run localized LLM/script to offload half the daily social tasks or even regulate chemical reactions in the brain to make socializing worthwhile task.
I wanna be me, but with superpowers.
