HELLO, I AM CAPSLOCKIAS OFFICIAL MAGICIAN, LET ME WELCOME YOU TO OUR WONDERFUL SOMEWHAT DEAD COUNTRY CAPSLOCKIA, BECAUSE NOBODY ELSE SEEMS TO DO THIS BECAUSE MAYBE EVERYONE DIED OR WHATEVER, I DON'T KNOW. WE ARE A CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY WITH OUR KING BEING XERCES BLUE AND OUR PRIME MINISTER BEING SPUD. THOSE TWO WOULD ALSO BE THE ONES WHO WOULD BE ABLE TO OFFICIALLY DECLARE YOU CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE SUPREME COURT, BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW ACTIVE THE TWO STILL ARE. OUR KING MIGHT BE HARD TO REACH, PROBABLY REALLY BUSY BEING A KING OR SOMETHING OR MAYBE DEAD TOO LIKE MOST OF THIS COUNTRY, BUT MAYBE OUR PRIME MINISTER CAN BE SUMMONED (@Spud)

YELLING DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STRESSING, YELLING CAN ALSO JUST BE SHOWING YOUR EXCITEMENT AND THAT IS AMAZING!!!

OH GOD, I HAVEN'T BEEN ON AROCALYPSE IN A WHILE AND CAPSLOCKIA HAS ALREADY TURNED INTO SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT. WOW!

AND THEN THERE IS MY RANDOM (BUT NOT REALLY THAT RANDOM) USERNAME THAT SOME TIME AGO SOME PEOPLE ON AVEN SHORTENED TO PEN AND NOW THAT LOVELY NAME GETS COMPLETELY RUINED BY PEOPLE WITH NAMES LIKE "PENCE" OR "LE PEN" LIKE IT MAKES ME SERIOUSLY CONSIDER CHANGING MY USERNAME, BUT I'M SO USED TO THIS ONE, I LIKE THIS ONE AND ALSO I NEED TO KEEP POOR PENPAPO ALIVE AND NO ONE NEEDS SPACES IN USERNAMES, SPACES BELONG INTO SPACE NOT IN USERNAMES, THERES A LOT MORE SPACE FOR SPACES IN SPACE THAN THERE IS IN USERNAMES WITH THOSE CHARACTER LIMITS.

No, that's aromanticism. The adjective aromantic is aromantisch in German and I think the aromantic as in the person is called Aromantiker (which I can't get used to, for some reason I think Aromantiker sounds really weird )

WOW PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY POSTING HERE AGAIN

THAT'S EXACTLY WHY I DON'T GO ON THE AVEN CAPSLOCKIA, IT'S SO CROWDED AND I DON'T LIKE CROWDS. THOUGH THIS HERE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE MORE ACTIVE... AVEN IN GENERAL STRESSES ME OUT SOMETIMES WITH HOW MUCH IS GOING ON THERE.

On christmas day we were visiting my grandparents and when we were leaving my grandma told me to bring my boyfriend next year... I practically ran away because I just couldn't stop myself from laughing at that. She says something like that every year, I wonder how many years it'll take her to realize that that's not going to happen.

That makes sense, I think I know how you mean it now. Yes this is important. It's something I knew before, I just never heard about how it is the other way around which is why I started this thread But I feel this kind of started to drift off topic to what even is gender dysphoria or dysphoria in general... oooops Anyway what you said is always worth mentioning. I never heard about that, but we can agree that there are more forms of body dysphoria than gender dysphoria, I didn't really phrased my question clear enough. I think I should actually edit my first post, so it's clear that I'm not talking about body dysphoria in general...

Well the diagnostic criteria for gender dysphoria in adolescents and adults from the article use "experienced gender" where I'd say mine is different than my gender assigned at birth, but you said: and I wouldn't say I "strongly identify" with that gender. I also don't strongly identify with my assigned gender and also not with any other gender or even with not having one. I think I do have a gender and that that is different from my assigned one, but I wouldn't use "strongly identify" for that... I do feel strongly about the things that I think are caused by that gender, but the gender itself... I don't even feel the need to find a label for it, I just really like not identifying as anything whether that's a woman, a man, something inbetween, no gender at all or anything else, I don't think I want to identify even though I think I have a gender and that's not my assigned one? Does this somehow make sense? I'm not going to tell you if that's dysphoria or not, because I firstly don't feel like I know enough about this to tell you and also I can't look into your mind so I wouldn't know anyway. But I'd say if you feel like that about your body because of male attention, it doesn't seem to be gender dysphoria because it's not really caused by gender. If it would be dysphoria, then probably another not gender related form of body dysphoria? I really don't know, I'm no expert. I didn't think you were insensitive at all. I totally see what you both were talking about, I was just saying that because untamed said she experienced it mildly before, so I was just questioning whether actual dysphoria can ever be called "mild". I asked it to understand dysphoria better, not because I thought you two were insensitive or something I heard about body dysmorphia before and I think for some people it might be hard to tell which of the two applies to them, personally I'm sure though that it isn't something I have. And that is definitely a thing that cis people can get too

Thanks. This is what I was asking for I guess in that case I wouldn't feel gender dysphoria, but according to this: I would.... I guess that's what my problem is with all of this. There is a different description everywhere and it's so confusing I don't know if that could be called dysphoria though? Isn't that something many cis women feel? I don't know, I don't feel like I can answer that, I don't know enough about the topic. At least I don't think it would be gender dysphoria, since the reason why you feel that way doesn't really have something to do with gender, but more because it's physically uncomfortable? I don't know, I still don't understand anything What I get from all of your answers though is, that there is no clear line between what gender dysphoria is and what isn't. And depending on what you call gender dysphoria, the answer to my question differs too. I just hate to know that when someone says they experience gender dysphoria, it doesn't really tell me anything because people use that so differently... and honestly I don't think I ever will understand because there just isn't a 100% clear description and probably there will never be one because it's just not a simple enough topic to say that there is an exact point where gender dysphoria starts.

I don't mind it much when people are kissing, but you know, don't be in my way while doing that. I just really can't stand it when I sit in a theatre with a perfect view of the stage.... until the two people in front of me start kissing. And no not just a short one, they have to take ages and I can't see anything besides them kissing. Can't they do that somewhere else, where they won't bother me??? The theatre is only one example. Sometimes I walk on a narrow sideway at a busy street and then there is this couple standing on the middle of the sideway taking all the time in the world to kiss... and block my way...

THEY ARE UPSET ALL AROUND THE WORLD. I'M LIVING PRETTY MUCH ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE EARTH AND EVERYONE I TALKED TALKED TO WAS UPSET ABOUT IT FIRST BREXIT NOW THIS... AND THEN NEXT YEAR ARE OUR ELECTIONS... HERE, BECAUSE IT'S NEEDED:

RIGHT, THAT HAPPENED... I DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT IT DID. THOUGH I STILL HOPE FOR THE WORLD AND ALL THE AMERICANS, THAT THIS WAS JUST A HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE OF MINE
