Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
found out a best friend got herself on hormones etc and is now a he. wild. will continue to offer my support, but i'm bad at the pronoun game. she was very unhappy so i hope this helps. yeah i'm thinking positively. no need to state the obvious here. maybe some people just gotta mutilate themselves to snap out of depression. she could never accept God, but maybe He'll have mercy nonetheless
I saw a video awhile back from a founder of the church of satan down under. And he had been saved, had a vision of Christ and changed completely. If he can, then your friend can, nothing is impossible. Well pray for her and everyone around her including you. Stay strong pede!
It's not easy. All we can often do is try to support their mental state even if we don't agree with their choices.
If they're an adult, they need to make their own way and figure their own things out.
Sadly, people scramble to find some huge change they can make and some end up thinking their sex is the source of their problems or thought processes -- or worse, are guided into believing that way.
I have a couple friends that have gone down this path but aren't raging leftists so they haven't been removed.
None of them are fully happy, one of them is very suicidal. It's not far from 41% ratio weirdly.
I actually had gender issues and was a raging leftist. barely made it out with my junk lmao. sure happy i did tho
I mean that's good, haha. I just don't associate with leftists anymore, COVID-19 BS (and thus, vaccines) made me shout Deus Vult at all my friends lists and contacts.
yep as soon as i heard there was a vax I started praying and carrying a knife lol. encounter more based folk than you'd expect being homeless on the west coast of canada, but... still lots of BS. at least I found a great church
It is very hard & I am there with you. I feel terrible for them & the biggest concern I have is the 40‰+ suicide rate both pre & post transition.
I still love the one in our fam & pray for them. It was crazy when I expected to hear her voice & out came a mutilated man sound. Their mother & father went way off the deep end around the beginning of Trump's Presidency. Ended up dissavowing God. Had to correct my children when they said that their cousin became a boy. Had to have a hard talk with young children that should never need to be taught these things T such a young age.
Abraham Lincoln- how many legs does a dog have if you call its tail a leg? Four.
Works well with kids.
This is awesome!
Wow. What a shock. I'm shocked when I see a stranger who obviously transitioned. Must be much more difficult with someone you know.
