multiplicity_archives | I chose to call myself Mercury for a reason

Hey, everyone...

From the user info page I thought I'd announce my presence here as a psych student, but I'm not interested in you people as guinea pigs... I have a seriously unorthodox fetish for the "crazies"... schizofrenia, multiples, furries, gender dysphoria... the people who don't belong, who feel out of place in their own skin, who are too much for themselves.

I wish I could live a thousand different lives sometimes, be the virgin and the whore and the child and the adult, the man and the woman. Being bisexual definitely raised some questions in my mind about whether or not I really wanted this female body of mine.

~~Don't be offended when I say part of me is jealous. But I guess you'd understand about "parts"... wouldn't you?~~

EDIT: I don't fetishize any of you, I have a tendency to use words offhand, I don't think about any of you or your friends naked in the shower to get my rocks off, I'm young, I'm dumb, I talk a lot, I would never in a million years dare to compare any of you to furries, or try to pretend any of you are anything like me, because that would be damn insulting, etc.

There.

Being physically male in some "other world" does not mean that the person knows what it is like to be male in a male body in the real world. It doesn't mean they have to have gender issues; just that you can't compare the two.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were the amazing, all-knowing arbiter of which worlds were "real" and which weren't! My apologies for ever questioning you in any way.

Do I detect a streak of distain for other-worlds in your post? Why are the experiences in such a place automatically inferior to those in this "real world"?

And no, it doesn't mean that they would necessarily have gender issues, but many do. Especially if the primary frontrunner's a different gender from the body (like me.)

If I climbed Mount Everest in some other world, would that mean I had the right to tell/imply that I climbed Mount Everest in this one? Hell, no.

And you don't need to defend gender issues. Really.

. . . You know, that's a terrible example that really doesn't support your argument at all. Mount Everest as such is a location in this world, so I severely doubt it would be possible to climb it in another.

And I wasn't "defending" gender issues, I was simply pointing out that you were going on quite a few assumptions in your posts. I believe that personally being a certain gender and being in the body of a certain gender are rather widespread experiences. Offhandedly dismissing the effects all other-world gender-related experiences could have on this world seems horribly close-minded to me.

Uh-huh. Of course , I'm closed-minded.

Open-mindedness, in my opinion, implies that you do not dismiss any concept or idea without proof that it is impossible.

Particularly after reading this entry (http://www.livejournal.com/users/pengke/52372.html) of yours, it is my opinion that you are a rather close-minded individual.

But this discussion has become fruitless, and I feel I've sufficiently made my point.

Does it ever occur to you people that by shooting down Pengke's thoughts and opinions you yourselves are being close-minded?

I am happily intolerant of intolerance.

Everything in life is beginning to look like that image of a snake in a circle biting it's own tail.

Heh.

Hmm, possible idea for a tattoo, that one.
