i believe the things she lists will not "breed acceptance", but create confusion among children. i was confused about my identity in my teens, and in hindsight i'm glad i didn't have easy access to "medication" which would have only set in motion an irreversible process. turns out i was just lonely and hoping that might magically change if i identified as the opposite sex. it's normal to feel curious as a kid, it's normal to be confused about yourself as a teenager, it's normal to feel confused about the opposite sex as a teenager, it's normal to be a drag queen or drag king as an adult. it's not normal to be a man today, a woman tomorrow, a man the day after tomorrow, a woman the day after ...

@@CronoBirdgeneralizing because of your own experience is not a good play in this topic. There are millions of children today that are not able to be themselves because of a lack of acceptance, and this denial of choice only contributes to silence and isolate them, even antagonizing them and breeding self-hatred that will be reflected onto the community. It is much more important to let that grand majority have the opportunity to choose than it is to worry about the miniscule minority that will regret it. Especially considering that those who regret it will be accepted and supported just as much as those who don't. Why would you choose not having to deal with confusion for a few more years over the freedom of self-expression and safety of your peers? And yes. It is normal for people to have a sense of being a man one day and a woman the other. Non-binary people exist, and that person you described is literally the first enby I've met.

It’s hard to ignore the situation that happened. Influencers don’t always handle things as everyone thinks they should, and obviously they can’t please everyone. But i think the only way, Ashley, your apology will actually be taken seriously is if you truly change your actions and think before you say something as cruel as that to a fan. It was not a joke, it came from what sounded like real anger. I get not wanting to bring up shit in ur past but if this has happened many other times it should be something you address if you want people to take you seriously. I really want to keep listening to the podcast because it was my favorite part of Wednesdays but i find it really difficult after hearing the audio and how extremely hateful and violent the words that you said to a fan were. I came to this podcast supporting Alayna and then found Mak and i wasn’t aware of Ashley until them. Although i didn’t start as a fan of Ashley i started to understand a bit more of how their dynamic works together, but at this point it’s incredibly hard to stand by and support someone who told someone to unalive themselves. And their mom should have “unalived them at birth”. This is not trying to “throw out a person”, it’s just really hard to listen to someone after hearing them say that.

alayna's right about the "n" in badminton. but in american english at least, the "n" is silent in the pronunciation. this is because the n and t sounds are made in the same area of the mouth and sort of melt together while we're speaking. a lot of words are like that thought, where certain letter/word combinations melt together because we're speaking too fast to care about pronouncing each individual letter. for example, when we say "want to" in a sentence, we usually put the two together because of the two "t" sounds right after another, so it ends up sounding like "wanna". however, when we say "wanted to," we pronounce the "t" in "to" because there's other letter sounds in between the "t" sounds. but even then, when saying "wanted" we don't really pronounce the "t" very much. it's more like "wannid". the english language and its evolution over time is pretty interesting

Just a thought :)

Preach Alayna. I'm not even joking that my mom is afraid of reading and watching documentaries with me, because she's afraid she'll see something that makes her want to change and she finds that exhausting. The look on mine and my dad's face when she said that was priceless. I can't imagine a person who doesn't want to spend their life growing, becoming a better person, being progressive, and trying to be inclusive. Luckily she votes democrat most of the time, but I've always said she's the most close-minded liberal I've ever met. My dad is unfortunately so religious that he's against divorce and gay marriage in the church, etc., but he's still surprisingly progressive in other areas like human rights and immigration, and believes that we shouldn't judge people for doing things if they aren't part of the church. Obviously I have huge issue with lots of his thoughts and values, but I'm proud of how progressive he is. If only he wasn't so brainwashed by the church.
