Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
Funny you ask that, not only our cat also does that, but he scared away his (adoptive) older brother with a... very girly and weird battle cry.
There already was a running joke about bringing the cat with us in Genk, where BF had his surgery, so he could have the body of a dog along with the personality of a dog. Now we're starting to consider offering him sex reassignment surgery on top of species reassignment surgery. :smallbiggrin:

Pretty sure all cats, male and female, have the response of lifting their tail when you stroke down to the base of it.

My phone just corrected me by adding another "a" to "way". I guess I didn't emphasize their adorability enough?
I am beginning to wonder if I am trapped in an illusion or an alternate reality where Kobolds are the epitome of adorableness. But thanks. :smallredface::smallsmile::smallredface:

Of course, as with all rules, there are exceptions, but...
There are exceptions, particularly when dealing with sociopathy and the like, but in those cases there is still many more who can step in and offer untwisted love. That love can lead to such terrible things is a bit morbid, but it can lead to amazingly great things too. Sometimes it can even heal the damage of misguided parental love. :smallsmile:

On the topic of earned names, it is sad that there is no longer a custom of earning names and epithets. It would be amazing to really earn the title of a mythical beast. ^_^
What about asking your friends if they would consider Phoenix fitting for you? You might have earned it without realising it. :smallsmile:

Have you tried Behind the Name? It has both names and etymologies for them, along with categories that allow you to only look at German names. :smallsmile:

Your parents sound almost like they are working by the logic of Victorian era social theories. I hope your announcement will be very fun when you move out, and that they get much better. :smallsmile:
I think my avoidance of coming out to my parents might be a bit hypocritical by comparison. They rarely give me flak for anything or express much negativity toward LGBTA+ other than general cis-het privilege. ^_^'

Seems the same way to me, the wild cats we have around pretty much all do it. They are so silly. :3

How much longer do you expect to remain living with them? I'm (relatively) lucky in the timing of everything, because if things go well at my new job, I'll be able to move out by my next birthday, which is in March.

While a good idea, I don't think that my friends have the same concept of earning a name that I do (and even for me, it's only some names that have a significant amount of spiritual or symbolic significance), or the same idea of what the name Phoenix might require. And explaining it might take a while, 'cause I'm not even sure how I'd go about doing it.

That's... A good question. I at least need to lose enough weight to reach my target so I don't need the medicine anymore, that's looking like it'll take at least a year. >.>

Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
Kobolds are not only absolutely adorable, according to Races of the Dragon they have a communal ethos which means they actually come off as less evil to me than most of the listed "usually neutral" species.
I liek Kobolds.

It does not work for me, sadly. Maybe they are trying to keep Kobolds apart to stop us from forming secret societies? :<

On a completely unrelated note, the Illuminati is pure fiction. No basis in reality.
