“Hey where’d all the gender go?” They say as they open the fridge. They gaze in horror as they see me, who has taken all the gender for myself, and I am growing more powerful by the second

[barbthebuilder-deactivated20250]

Nah man that was my gender. Go get one for yourself or I'm telling mom.

[sorenhugo]

I start laughing manically, a shiver surges through your body as I take off my mask to reveal that I am also mom. I have stolen all the genders. It is no use. No one is safe.

[sorenhugo]

You good. ?

I have been better but I have also been worse. Thank u though.

Recently saw an insta vid where a musician was singing lyrics that described their intrusive thoughts as a person with OCD, and in the comments every so often there would be people writing like "bro what is this 🤨🤨" and "keep this between you and your therapist dont post it on the internet" and it just further fueled my belief that OCD symptoms and intrusive thoughts need to be talked about more because a majority of the struggle with the disorder is the shame surrounding its symptoms. OCD is not able to be easily romanticized or 'quirky'fied like other disorders or neurodivergencies have been*, and as a result its symptoms are more quickly met with disgust or repulsion.

Other people in the comments were thanking OP because it captured the struggle of real intrusive thoughts instead of impulsive ones. Impulsive thoughts are more of the 'I'm gonna dye my hair randomly on a thursday night' thoughts vs the intrusive 'what if I drove my car into that family and suddenly killed us both' thoughts, the latter of which make OCD as a disorder truly debilitating. And the people that immediately assign bad morals to intrusive thoughts? They only further condemn people with OCD to never wanting to talk about the symptoms they've already been struggling with shame about.

I feel it needs to be made more blatantly explained to the public that OCD intrusive thoughts aren't desire based. They're fear and disgust based. You fear hurting anyone so badly your mind can't stop thinking about what if you hurt someone. You fear molesting anyone so you never want to even touch anyone. Your mind fixates on the 'what ifs' and distorts them into the idea that, because you think this way, you must want to act this way--when the reality is the exact opposite.

If a person with OCD ever confides to you one of their intrusive thoughts and you feel a knee-jerk reaction of disgust towards them, it needs to be reiterated that:

1. the person does not want to be thinking about this, their brain is legit hardwired to make those thoughts pop up

2. the person themselves also feels this disgust, often intensely, and they very likely resent themselves for ever thinking it

and

3. they have no desire to enact the intrusive thought, because its intrusive nature hinges on the person's fears and dislikes.

*And to clarify what I mean by romanticization and 'quirk'-ifying, I do not mean to imply that romanticizing any disorder or condition is inherently a good thing. It's only to state that conditions like anxiety and ADHD have been made such common/'trendy' topics recently that they're less taboo to speak about--leading to more people talking about their struggles with it, and helping others realize they might have it too and aren't alone. Because certain OCD traits aren't as marketable (obviously) a lot of those with it are left rather isolated.

Rode the train and looked out the window while listening to music and realised that life is crazy beautiful. I should take a detour and get off the train rn and spontaneously buy swimmers at a nearby store and jump in that beautiful lake I’m passing by. I should dance in public and feel the sun shine on my face. It’s so easy to feel happy when you change the way you look at a moment.

On the bus now and I changed my mind

[bisexualseraphim]

Being on the internet with OCD is like “I want to post a picture of my outfit because I look bomb but what if my full address and National Insurance number is written in the reflection of this random public bathroom mirror and I didn’t notice”

[sorenhugo]

Analysing the music I’m listening to it makes me feel smart and studious and special but in reality I’m just autistic.

One time my dad and I got into an argument cause he said it was unprofessional for a man to wear a skirt to work because a man would only want to wear women’s clothing if it was a sexual fetish and at the time I just thought it was stupid but in hindsight I think I learned something deeply personal about my dad

[teaboot]

“I wouldn’t be caught dead in any kind of dress because dresses are for women and I’m a man so it would be perverted, the only reason a man would wear a dress would be if he was getting off on it” really is the most weirdly conservative way to admit you find crossdressing so intensely erotic that you cannot imagine a reality where it’s boring, huh

[hyperlexichypatia]

My partner used to be on a message board where one time, a woman posted for advice because her husband* liked to wear """women's"" clothes, and she was uncomfortable with it.

The consensus response was that she was absolutely justified in this discomfort, and she should absolutely not tolerate her spouse's clothing choices. Because, you see, if her spouse wore "women's clothes" in front of her, that was "involving her in something sexual without her consent," which was tantamount to sexual assault, but if her spouse wore "women's clothes" when she wasn't around, that was "doing something sexual behind her back," which was tantamount to cheating.

*"Husband" later came out as a trans woman, and the people who'd moral panicked about a "cross-dressing man" pivoted to being "supportive," because this was at a really specific time in the late aughts when the Correct Received Liberal Opinion was that we should support Actually Trans People (within a very binary, medicalized framework) because Actually They're Not Like Those Crossdressers At All. If the topic came up today in a similar social milieu, I think people would come to "Maybe a 'man' who likes wearing 'women's clothes' is a closeted trans woman" a lot sooner, but not necessarily to "What your spouse wears is actually none of your business."

Maybe also we could stop pathologizing "cross dressing" period, that shit is so exhausting.

[thevictoriousone]

It’s fucking clothing. None of it is natural. We all pick the ones we like and feel comfortable in and put them on our bodies for largely arbitrary and extremely personal and subjective reasons.

Who gives a fuck if the bottom part splits between the legs or not?? Why does that indicate anything at all other than “this person is comfortable wearing that item of clothing”?? None of this shit should matter one bit. Good lord wear clothes that make you happy and everyone else needs to shut the fuck up unless they want to tell you how much they like your outfit.
