as a completely cis dude, | would press this button immediately, without question. There are a lot of things | would do for money, but shit I’d do this for like 20 bucks… maybe less?

She said with all too much confidence

completely cis dude
5C5C5C ( @5C5C5C@programming.dev ) 3•20 days agoI like to imagine the profile pic changed immediately after the transition was complete, and at the time of the “completely cis” post it was something manly, like… I don’t know, hotwheels?
Jo Miran ( @JoMiran@lemmy.ml ) 33•21 days agoGirl? Girl implies youth. So, get a million dollars or be young again?
XPost3000 ( @XPost3000@lemmy.ml ) 3•20 days agoI’m keeping this button locked up until retirement, then
Mad strats
Zagorath ( @Zagorath@aussie.zone ) 29•21 days agoEveryone here debating the mechanics of the button or engaging with the question explicitly posed.
But I’m just trying to figure out wtf the bottom comment in the pic is about. A day? What day? No time frame is ever mentioned in any other part of the post.
Sas [she/her] ( @Sas@beehaw.org ) 14•21 days agoThe comment-times both say 6 days for the arch user and 4 days for the person commenting “a day” so I’m assuming on their end there was about a day time difference between the time the arch user posted the post about the button and realising they’re probably trans, which is exceptionally fast and worthy of the day comment.
kittenzrulz123 ( @kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 26•21 days agoI’m pressing it 100 times
Neato ( @Neato@ttrpg.network ) English21•21 days agoWell you got that 1% chance about 4 times by sheer luck I don’t know what to tell you but you’re Supergirl, now. Congrats?
kittenzrulz123 ( @kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 19•21 days agoDoes that mean I get to be four times as cute :3
Kogasa ( @kogasa@programming.dev ) 27•21 days agoNo but you have 8 boobs like a cat, enjoy
GluWu ( @GluWu@lemm.ee ) 9•21 days agoJudging by their username, that’s what they want.
kittenzrulz123 ( @kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 6•21 days agoI’m fine with my two boobs :3
kittenzrulz123 ( @kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 5•21 days agoCan I just get 8 cats instead -_-
TheBlue22 ( @TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 21•21 days agoMy gf is bi so it’s not like it would matter
watersnipje ( @watersnipje@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 19•21 days agoIf you are already a cis woman, does this just reroll your stats?
klemptor ( @klemptor@startrek.website ) 3•20 days agoI’m wondering how literal “girl” is. Like, would I go back to being a little girl? Absolutely not. But would I go back to being like 20? Maybe! There’s some shit I’d like to do differently.
However, I’d wayyyy rather have the cash.
𝕽𝖚𝖆𝖎𝖉𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖌𝖍 ( @sxan@midwest.social ) 14•21 days agoI seem to be the minority here, but, while I’d press the button, I wouldn’t mash it or press it a bunch of times, or eagerly press it… because periods. And PMS. And misogyny. But, mostly periods.
I think being a girl has some pretty sucky parts that is guys completely avoid, and for which I’m really grateful. And I think a lot of dudes who fantasize about transitioning sort of skip over, although I guess with no ovaries trans women get to avoid the worst of it. Although they still have to deal with the patriarchy, and that’s pretty shitty.
So, yeah. I’d press it, but with some trepidation.
Julian ( @julianh@lemm.ee ) English8•21 days agoI’ve heard that some trans women get “phantom periods” after hrt, like the hormonal cycle still happens even if the parts aren’t there.
Pixel ( @pixel@pawb.social ) 9•21 days agoCis men have hormonal cycles too, it’s just not accompanied by your body contracting rapidly or you bleeding out of your privates so men get to pretend they don’t have cycles
𝕽𝖚𝖆𝖎𝖉𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖌𝖍 ( @sxan@midwest.social ) 1•20 days agoThat’d take some of the fun out of it, I guess.
Kidplayer_666 ( @Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee ) 12•21 days agoI have a question though:
If I became a girl through the button, the button would then change and give me a 1% chance of becoming a boy. I could just proceed to then press the button again and be myself again and get a bunch of cash
Superb ( @superb@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English28•21 days agoWhy would the button change? Its explicitly a girl button
Kidplayer_666 ( @Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee ) 7•21 days agoCause then it wouldn’t be interesting for girls
itslilith ( @itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 7•21 days agoFor girls it’s just free money
BarrelAgedBoredom ( @BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee ) 2•21 days agoGirls become girl² when they hit the button
Catoblepas ( @Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 6•21 days agoI assumed the button was supposed to be single use.
BasidialTiger ( @basidialtiger@beehaw.org ) 3•21 days agoWell, in that case, I’d like better odds. What am I supposed to do with a million dollars?
I guess I’d press it anyways. 1% is better than nothing.
Catoblepas ( @Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 2•21 days agoA million bucks is a lot of money to transition with! Instant transition or luxury transition, win/win 👍
