put on the thigh highs. we won't ask a second time
Joke's on you I already have thigh highs... Somewhere. And a garter belt that hasn't fit in probably a decade. : p
Even the cis on hexbear aren't cis.
Cishet with Queer Characteristics
I've said it before, but if it wasn't for hexbear I wouldn't have been confident enough to understand I am Nb. So ty y'all.
he bear
Wtf where is she bear
I'm a straight guy but I like sucking off other guys in a hetero way. Still straight
YIPPEE
I'M THE MINORITY NOW :sicko-yes:
nah but tbf
just like with the last survey, i'm really fucking happy for how things are split up
being in the minority as a cis dude is very reassuring about what kind of space hexbear is
just a quick minority report
:basil-anxious-smile: no please don't, i promise i'm one of the good ones
:basil-anxious: im a good cissy seriously please don't
this is really cool and it's great to be part of a community that embraces our trans comrades, or should i say a community of trans comrades that embraces its cis minority.
am i reading the results correctly that very few cis women responded to the survey/are present on hexbear? "No votes by pronoun" has a dark grey sliver which i assume would be "she/her", implying cis women?
There aren't many cis women, yeah. I go over their rough numbers here. Basically, per week we should be getting around 40-50 cis women, based on the trans survey's numbers. Hopefully, lemmy will let us do more complex polling and surveys in the future.
a third of the users are cishet
They're puttin pigpoopballs in the posts to make the friggin' hexbears trans
puttin
:putin-wink:
Havana Syndrome is just what happens when you try to use the Putinite Sissy Hypno Ray on men who have already experienced twink death
It's so interesting seeing how there's almost no cis women in online left spaces but irl, they seem to be the plurality (at least amongst the younger crowd (aka same age demographic as online) for sure they are)
Let me know if I'm off the mark about any of this, but my guess is that we'd see a significant bump in cis women if the polling were anonymous. Things are getting lot better now as the internet becomes increasingly diverse, but early on it was dominated by white, cishet techbros who suddenly found themselves with their own anonymous soapbox with endless reach.
Cis women learn from an early age that outing their gender on the internet results in creeps crawling out of the woodwork to harass them, so they don't do it. Transwomen face the same misogyny, but are far more comfortable on the internet owing to their experience of using it before hatching.

Male socialization mentioned!!! Let's goooooo

I put unsure, which is true, though Iβm AFAB and cis presenting. A lot of online spaces (whether leftist or otherwise) are just hard to interact with when youβve grown up conditioned to femininity. At least on Twitter, TikTok etc there is some amount of accountability with peopleβs accounts but in more anonymised spaces the language and discourse is often just veryβ¦ dismissive, cynical, violent, etc. and itβs not that itβs not warranted, but cis women are often raised to be repelled by that kind of tone so it can be a shock/difficult to fit in even if the space isnβt overtly or implicitly misogynist.
Because irl women face gender discrimination and greater exploitation, which is a very radicalizing experience that most would like to do away with after facing it from the time you first gain consciousness until you pass away.
Not to attempt to invalidate anybodyβs life experience or belittle anybody for their organizing efforts, but men, on the basis of their privileged position in society, have a lot less to directly gain by spending real time and real effort organizing and thus have less actual motivation on average to do something about it.
Happy pride everyone!
wild. super cool. blessed to be a part of this space as a cissie
I'm happy the mods have been able to make this more of a safe place for queer people from all over to discuss and share our experiences. It's been a part of my journey in connecting more with other queer people.
But the fediverse told me that we're using gay people as a cudgel to do heckin fascism. Do we just have a really big cudgel? Are we Guts from frickin Berserk?
that's gay
These numbers are lacking. I think it's time I pulled out my estrogen gun.
I have upgraded from a cis they/them to a maybe, I look forward to the next survey :rat-salute:
Quite a significant difference between the two surveys though. And just a couple months between them so I doubt it's due to transition.
Edit: my bad!
This one was about cishet, while the other one was just about trans. Any cis but not het people are counted as No here, and No on the other one.
trans forum "concealed" as a communist forum, many people are saying this
P.S. Thanks @ComradeEd@lemmygrad.ml for helping make this a bit quicker with your code here.
Sure! If you are going to do more, maybe I should work a bit more on it. I have a few ideas.
