To be honest, saying "polyminds are just endogenics with extra steps" is kind of embarrassing. You're literally admitting to having no clue why you hate endos, and/or admitting you have no clue what polyminds are. ANY amount of research would prove they aren't the same, and the fact that its obvious you didn't do that research, is pretty laughable. Do some self reflection instead of following the next tiktok hate trend.

You don't have to respond to this at all. We just became "non-hazy" and are looking through everything we've said, and I'm so sorry for kind of getting you wrapped up in drama. I shouldn't have mentioned you before asking if you were okay with it

Ill be dead honest but I don't think you are the reason we got wrapped in the drama (tbh I'm not even sure what drama we're talking about?)

You're all good, stay safe friend

People need to get rid of the belief that the word "paraphilia" describes something inherently evil and wrong.

polymind-education

No offense, but why are you, a non-polymind, answering questions about polyminds, when you have no experience with being polyminded? It kind of feels like a straight person answering questions about queer people, or even a white person answering questions about black people.

This is giving the same energy as “ Youre not disabled, why are you trying to educate people on disabilities and their struggles when you don’t have one “

Your comparisons are pretty faulty as well. Ive been researching IFS, psychology and how the brain works and functions overall for a decently long time. You can absolutely be educated on things you yourself don’t personally experience. Straight people can also be queer too, so again, faulty comparison.

Cough cough red herring fallacy cough cough cough oh wow my throat is pretty dry today cough we're not IFS cough cough cough you know thats not what I meant cough cough we're not a disability either cough cough cough we are our own group and can speak for ourselves cough cough cough cough

the coughing feels immature, there can be allies of polymindence ? People constantly complain that anti-endo systems also hate polyminds, but then the moment one speaks up and makes a blog supporting us it all of a sudden is bad ? we can speak up for ourselves yes, but does that mean its bad for majorities to speak up for minorities when they arent heard ? or should they have just stayed silent and not supported us

I agree, monominds can absolutely speak up about us, defend us, even answer questions. My issue lies with the fact that they were posing themselves as a beacon of knowledge for monominds who want to know more about polyminds, when polyminds and even the coiner of the term, are here on this app. Allyship is one thing, speaking for us is another. I saw what they said in the server and I can answer questions.

1. I did not care about them being anti-endo, my issue lies with the fact that the only messages I ever saw that were approved, were more about being anti-endo and less about being polyminded. It seemed weird that the safe-space was overall a very negative place. Also that my submission about how polymindence was great was never approved, but the one I sent hating on endos was.

2. I do not think a monominded person should be creating a blog answering questions about polyminds, even if they know a lot about polymindence. They are still monominded, they do not know what being a polymind is like. Especially since there are polyminds (such as the coiner of the term) who are more than willing to answer questions. It doesn't feel like spreading awareness it feels like talking over an already hated community. I understand they wanted to do good, but the way they went about it seemed a lot more like it was bait than genuine.

3. Yes, by them saying "we" it felt like "we as polyminds" and not "we as in my system". That's my fault for getting that mixed up but I'm sure you can understand the confusion.

That makes sense ! But it is openly anti-endo and a lot of polyminded people find comfort in that, me as well ! It seems thats mostly expected when something is advertised like that 2. It's not like they were talking about how it felt to be polyminded, they seemed to only answer the factual stuff, which they most likely got from other polyminds ! Also the coiner is someone who thinks pedophiles should have a safe space, and not someone most people would like to interact with for that reason 3. That also can make sense, thanks for clearing that part up !

this is what i mean btw by the coiner supporting pedophilia, being attracted to minors sexually or romantically is bad no matter what, and saying you dont want people like that around you is NOT ableist <- coming from someone with P-OCD and Z-OCD whos actively getting help and not interacting with that community

"Hey, dont demonize people with pedophilia. Its a mental disorder"

"So you support pedophilia?"

???

Telling people its ableist to not want to interact with pedophiles is kinda crazy, pedophiles should not have a community or platform to find eachother they should get real mental help. And even if its "not always sexual" any kind of attraction to something that can't consent legally is morally and ethically wrong, it's not insane to say its weird to like kids romantically/sexually as an adult. Even though its a mental disorder, that just means people need to get help. Finding community with it will just convince them it's okay to indulge

Okayyy one by one

What I was saying is ableist is the fact that anon is dumbing down the big three into people who sexualize things, not the dni itself.

Would you say people with OCD deserve a community? People with psychopathy? Anyone with intrusive thoughts? Genuine question btw

Yes, if the person is at risk of hurting others or themselves, they should seek mental help if they can.

I never said its not morally or ethically wrong, idk where you're getting that from.

Last paragraph is slippery slope and guilt by association fallacy, no further comment.

There's been growing topics of discussion and disagreements between polyminds recently. Here's your friendly reminder that your polymindence is not dependent on your stances on any controversial topic. You're here and I see you! <3

For the PM wiki, is the style guide supposed to just be a guide on how to work everything (like references, links to other pages, titles), and how to keep the wiki uniform? Because if so I'm gonna work on that

Yeah pretty much, thank you so much for helping w it

i frequently hear from anti-polyminds (and similarly anti-IFS) something along the lines of “it’s harmful to identify your subpersonalities without a therapist in front of you”. but there is no evidence of this; this is a rumour that anti-polyminds made up and continue to spread simply to bash on polyminds and IFS.

in fact, Dr. Richard Schwartz, the creator of IFS, has said himself that IFS is “something you can do on a daily, moment-to-moment basis—at any time, by yourself or with others”. IFS is fine to practice without a therapist, and not everyone has the means to get therapy in the first place.
