Here I Am

Hey, my name is Atticus Sterling MacDonald!  First & foremost I am a single gay pre-EVERYTHING Transman (FtM).

 

For those that are interested in the Myers-Briggs personality type, I am an INFP-T. If you look into it, then it is me in a nutshell with a few exceptions, of course. I'm quite shy at first, but after I've warmed up to you, then my real colors start to show. I like to think I have a sense of humor, albeit dark & dryly British. I can be very stubborn when I know I'm right or want something done a certain way. I'm a bit spontaneous and can jump around from subject to subject in a single conversation or even have several topics going at once. I'm quite intelligent and love learning new things about the natural & technological worlds. I find intelligence a turn on so I guess that makes me Sapiosexual.

 

Hey all you nerds/geeks out there, I am too! I'm a gamer and play on the PC, Xbox One, 3DS, and Gamecube. You can find me quite a few places so if you're interested in chatting with me over a game feel free to message me with your preferred gaming platform. I'm a die-hard Pokemon fan. My all-time favorite is Arcanine. I’m also a mega dinosaur fan. I’ve loved dinosaurs since I was born. Around three yrs old I was saying paleontologist like an adult. If you live close enough to me, I would love to go exploring with Pokemon Go or Jurassic World Alive.

 

I am a hardcore bookworm. I LOVE to read manga and novels. Both collections are relatively large. If I wanted to, I could open up a bloody library in my house. I get my love reading from my grandmother who used to read me to sleep when I was younger. I've been reading above my age group for as long as I can remember. I think my favorite books thus far are Birdman by Mo Hayder and Shadow of the Wolf by Tim Hall though there are many others among my favorites. The bookstore is my happy place, and I can spend hours just browsing. I usually dive into debt when buying books.  I mean, who doesn't?  They all sound amazing.

 

I think that's about it for now. Got to leave some mystery, right? If you'd like to uncover more feel free to chat with me here on the forum, on Discord (Zalid#3182), or Facebook (SmolWolfieBean) =3

Hi Atticus, pleased to meet you! 

It's good that you know who you are, many of us are still trying to work that out!

I'm an occasional PS4 gamer, currently just started playing a survival horror called The Forest a friend got me into - its like dead island meets minecraft! 

 

The few times I've done Myers Briggs I have always gotten INFP too. Though I wonder how that will be affected in the future because it is possible to move around the zones.

 

Have you read/watched Attack on Titan? or watched Sword Art Online? I tend to binge watch series on Netflix or Crunchyroll when I find something I like, books could be an entire thread on its own (and I think is) but I'm not a collector. Honest. ? Enjoy meeting new people!

Thank you for the welcome =D  I wondered about myself for a long time before meeting one of my best friends and discovering that the way he felt as a child when he realized he was FTM were the same feelings I'd felt my whole life.

 

I have heard of the The Forest.  A few of my friends have it for PC but I have yet to get it.  It looks like a ton of fun.

 

I've taken the Myers-Briggs test twice in my life with several years in between.  Both times I got INFP-T ^^

 

I have watched the first season of Attack on Titan and everything dubbed for Sword Art Online.  I enjoy them both ^^

      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."

      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.

      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far...

      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.
