I feel you. I’m from Switzerland and there almost aren’t any lesbian spaces either in the place I live, but lots of FLINTA.

What actually made me struggle is that I’m currently live in an environment where a lot of people around me are bi girls. One of them has a friend who is a full-on lesbian and from her talking about her, she seems to be literally like me, except for her being cis.

At first I felt incredibly happy and even started crushing a bit, until I realized and remembered that well… I’m trans, she’s cis, if we ever get to know each other, that will likely become a problem, which subsequentally threw me into this pit of despair I’m currently in.

Before that realization I was incredibly excited to meet her, now I’m scared and feel like rather not meeting her even…

And yeah, you hit the nail in regards to t4t, even though there are some local transgirls around, the dating pool is so slim that there’s rarely a match, while the girls you do match with are living a lot of hours away. In regards to switzerland in particular, that’s proving to be an even bigger challenge, since any potential partners couldn’t move closer unless we marry (or unless I leave switzerland again, which I definitely couldn’t anymore). If I were mono that wouldn’t be too big of an issue, but obviously, I had to be born being polyamorous, which sucks even harder :/

Yeah, I feel you, but given that we can’t change society overnight, this ultimately becomes a circumstance we have to deal with, unfortunately :/

Well yeah, I’ll give it a try nonetheless, but my expectations are incredibly low, since I doubt there might be anything happening… let’s see.

Gotta say though, long term does work out okay-ish as long as you’re reasonably close. My fiancee lives in northern germany, and even though visitting her takes aeound 10h by train, it’s doable ever so often an very great. Still, LDR sucks, since traveling back again leaves a deep hole :/

Most governments are greatly influenced by lobbyists, who are often tied to media companies. It gets worse since a lot of old people vote for heavy conservative parties, which in turn are even stronger leaning into lobbyism.

In case you are still confused about the terms “cub” and “feral”:

We’re talking about people who see the Vaporeon Copypasta as a legitimate, inspirational and very realistic piece of guideline and also apply it to Pikachus and Charmanders

Brief reminder that the legal age of sexual consent in japan is 13. It’s possible the industry wanted to block these studies as they would’ve put them into a economically dire situation, where their stuff is perfectly fine in japan, but deemed improper in countries with some actual sense when it comes to sexual consent different laws.

To put it short, they wouldn’t be able to export their animes / mangas, or they would have to create 2 different versions of it.

Still fucked, I’m not defending them.

Edit: they actually finally got their shit together and raised the age of consent to 16. Good job Japan, welcome to the modern age.
