One of the drawbacks to modern medicine and high life expectancies is that elon will be tormenting humanity for a long time :(

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

But with a small chin it seems.

It's weird he didn't get surgery for that.

The guy on the right definitely looks like he has enough testosterone. Sure it’s not the effects of testosterone that 16 year olds and pre transition trans men dream of excitedly, but speaking as a trans woman, that’s the effects I dreaded. He looks like if Jason Alexander wasn’t handsome. Nobody can deny that Jason Alexander looks masculine as fuck.

Idk. I feel like balding is more gender-affirming for a man.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I started balding at 24.

I hate it, but over the counter stuff hasn’t worked, and I can’t justify spending a lot of money on hair plugs just to make me feel better.

My wedding is this month, after that I’m just going full Mr clean.

I’m going to miss my hair.

Fellow baldy here. I put it off for so long, but going full-shave is great. I was so nervous about doing it but now I regret not doing it 10 years sooner!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Same. It does make me look like a completely different person though. And there are a few months at the beginning where you may have a very obvious tan line, but that will go away.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I was the opposite, I accepted going bald early on and went full-shave for a few years. When it grew back a bit everyone said it looks way better, and I regret spending most of my 30s with a shaved head.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I always cringe when I see the "hair transplants are gender affirming care" meme. It's so embarrassing when someone on your side of the argument says something so dumb. Going bald isn't feminine?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

In this context I thought it was gender affirming as in "something that alleviates dysphoria" not as something specific to one end of the binary.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (7 children)

Male pattern baldness is a male/masculine trait. Working against that is not gender affirming.

Stand by your shiny domes, men

It's a sign of too much testosterone being converted to dht and having genes that sensitize the hair on your head to it so that they fall out, which primarily happens with age and stress.

He wants to look like a young virile male rather than looking like he swallowed a couch cushion.

Gender affirming care.

Couch cushion image for reference.

Keep him away from jd

He's shaped like a cybertruck...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

That's just a very vain middle-aged man that doesn't do any sports desperately sucking in his sizable gut.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Jesus fuck, those proportions are unfortunate

He also has this thing about having lots of children to ensure the future of the human race. Dude, you know how you hated the way you looked? The surgeries aren't in your DNA. You're not part of a master race. (except he probably still thinks so because he's white cause he's a nazi shithead)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Yeah at least I acknowledge I looked great before the gender affirming care. I was hot pre transition, I’m hot post transition. Elon is over here thinking his kids will inherit his jawline and hairline. I’d insult his kids’ potential intelligence but his ex daughter seems to have gotten her mom’s brains

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Can someone explain the "jawline" part? It looks the same to me.

I am a Rocket League addict. I hate that my once indie game is owned by a major public company that exploits us. Anyway, they just added the cybertruck to the game, and I frequently find myself playing against an all cybertruck team with nothing but cybertruck teammates to help me. And every time I see it, I can't help but feel like it's the anti-rainbow flag. Gay Pride month is over, now it's Trans Hate month; gotta cover all the bases.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Rocket league added a rainbow flag but then "accidently" removed it to where you needed to submit a support ticket to get it back. Lot of homophobic folks will react if you have it on your car. We must stunt on those fools.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Whaaaaaaat?? I had not heard about this.

Hmm, from the google results of reddit pages I see that it was wiped from some player inventories but it's still out there and tradable. Yes, very suspicious it's known but was never resolved.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Do all the cybertrucks suddenly stop working for no reason? Otherwise it’s not an authentic experience

Only difference between this incel and grandma's basement incel is that this incel herp-de-derped into a lucky break thanksto mommy and daddy's money. Once an incel alwaysan incel.

I get what everyone is saying, but if we're being totally honest their issue is with gender affirming care is when it's used for the opposite gender they want to force you to maintain.

Male affirm male ok. Female affirm female ok. Male affirm female... AHHHHHHH!!!! BE AFRAID!!!!

Either way we're all correct in calling them assholes that should stay the fuck out of our pursuit of happiness.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

when it’s used for the opposite gender

I've never seen Elon present his long form birth certificate for the State of Texas to review, before beginning these treatments

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Ah, but you see, a man who wants to live as a woman is delusional. A weak, low-T beta male who wants to live as an alpha is

...no, I still can't figure out how they square that with themselves

Did his jawline really change from the images left and right or are they just taken from different angles?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (7 children)

I searched for "paypal elon" and found other angles

Did he really get jawline surgery? I thought it was just because of him abusing steroids and testosterone. That’s why he has that weird barrel chest nowadays.
