Why has discussion died on Hung Angels?

[aktrik]

hi to all

My opinions is that the lack of discussion has to do with the lack of fantasy and the will for interesting material, initially video but other things too, which is finally the implementation of all this things that has to do with our sexual preferences.
Therefore there aren’t neither models that stand, neither movies, productions, neither generally any action that makes a step ahead and by that way to create new discussions. Ι m not talking only for the professional works.
So, if you see all the time the same things is getting boring. Web cameras, boring movies without any inspiration etc this is going to affect the ts community and HA is the prime expression of this community.
Of course a community like this hasn’to do only with the sexual part but off course this is the primary factor.

i hope that my english is not so bad

Maybe there's to many of us "Guy's " and not enough girl's to mix things up . In the bigger world, this is the case, wouldn't you folks say? I get the feeling, for every t-grl there are like 10 guy's lusting after them. Maybe not that much, but you get the drift, (I don't know what the hard numbers are).
Oh , and maybe ,our group is more accepted in the wider world and there just isn't as much of a need to be in this particular insular community? That's why not as much heavy discussions. Yeah , we won.

I think it may be that this forum kind of harkens back to an earlier age when we could have fun with gender topics. Nowadays, conservatives have decided that trans women are public enemy #1 and it's a battle, and battles aren't fun.

Or that may be just that I've been struggling with my own gender identity, I don't know.

Battles are things that take place within the context of wars, and wars require there to be sides.

They also inevitably create collateral damage.

The problem with having fun with gender topics is the level of risk it carries. Before our society got caught up with social media websites anyone could jump on the internet and protect themselves with as much anonymity as they needed say by using stage names, user names etc. If they were smart about it, risk was low and reward was high. This is in contrast to today's social website world where everyone gets linked to their real names, their careers, and their entire social circles.

With something like transsexuality it goes without saying that many of those who can get by living a stealthy existence, choose to do so. With homosexuality societal acceptance does not strip one of their identity. Someone can come out of the closet, and everyone around with them continues to see them as the same person whether they like that characteristic or not.

But with transsexuality its really not like that. Things like passing is based on subtle cues, observations people make that they don't even realize they are making. In this context, if someone's status or past is revealed its like a magician's act being explained to the audience before they get to see it. Those things that no one noticed before, that occasional vocal flaw, that scar where ones' adams apple was (if it were even removed), ones statistically abnormal but not unprecedented height now go from being invisible to visible, and everyone around you no matter how much they are accepting, will and do treat you different. Notice how these accepting people will never talk of a woman who is trans as if she were a woman, but instead always attach the prefix "trans-woman" in every chance they get instead. The same who, as have done in other countries, have taken a separate but equal approach to things like identification papers & public bathrooms, essentially requiring by law everyone to follow these forced-into the daylight existences whether that's the life they want for themselves or not.

So what happens is as follows: Those who care about their public anonymity eventually disappear, leaving those who do not care to protect it- like the loud and obnoxious SJW crowd on today's social media websites like Tumblr who are so caught up with their own views & agenda that they will eagerly destroy anyone they think stands in its way.

Ever hear of Oliver Sipple? He was a Vietnam War hero who was a closeted gay guy. One day, purely out of chance he was near president Gerald Ford when a crazed SJW stepped out of the crowd and tried to assassinate him. Sipple was in the right time & place to save the president's life, and that's exactly what he did.

Then what happens is a bunch of national gay rights activists including the "hero" Harvey Milk find out what happened through the grape vine and they intentionally out him to the world so that they can have a hero to talk about whenever someone should say something bad about "those gays."

The guy looses everything. His career is over, his family disowns him, and he ends up dying alone in deep poverty. Oh what a hero he was, not that anyone who pretended to care did anything to help him while he was still alive.

Conversation is becoming a dying art. Just look at a typical public space. No one is talking. They are all glued to their hand phones.
Pretty depressing. It used to be TV was the great conversation killer (I haven't had one since 1981), but now its hand phones.

We’ve got a separate section for politics and religion: two subjects we’ve beaten to a pulp...but discussions still flare up there once in awhile.

In the General Discussion we’ve talked about PrEP, the Orlando Shootings, whether tranny-chasers are gay, and whether Bailey Jay’s cock is getting bigger. What more do you want? Wait, a minute...I think I got a Pokemon...

I just signed in for the first time in about a year to say ...

And then I thought, why have I signed in?

Too many shallow or inane topics. As I read the topics, I generally shake my head and go on to the next one. It's probably why I so few posts. I'm waiting for the "If you could be a tree, what kind would you be" thread.

The trees encountered on a country stroll, reveal a lot about that country's soul...(Auden)

Sloth. Personally, sometimes I'm just burned out at the end of the day. After being on computers all day, I'm not too keen on spending my evenings on the computer again.

....this is especially rich coming from someone who - out of all the possible choices - chose to call yourself BlowJob For Transsexuals.......so, since we now know what you'd choose for a name if you could choose any name possible, what tree would YOU choose to be if you could be any tree?

As for me.......I'm bamboo......
