is jennifer diane reitz an alternate reality version of cara?
>>7892549
how so?
>>7894405
>fucked up childhood
>agp, but more gnc childhood than average agp
>trutrans complex
>stalker
>attracted to other trans girls
>transitioned at same age cara is now (in 1981 when doing that was really hard, making her an early transitioner of her era)
>weird cognitive profile that mixes above and below average intelligence and masculine and feminine traits
>complex relationship with religion
reitz was the person i was thinking about when i first started talking to cara and it's just gotten more obvious since
>>7898326
>mixes above and below average intelligence and masculine and feminine traits
explain both these?
>complex relationship with religion
what's cara's relationship with religion?
>>7898326
Honestly the more I learn about cara, the more similar I feel to her, besides the stalking part, luckily I transitioned before stalking ever became a mechanism to release dysphoria for myself.

>explain both these?
cara is smart in some ways and decidedly not smart in others
i would estimate her overall iq as being about 105-110, so in the top 40% or so, i'm not sure what the viq-piq split would be (the way she scored in the sage test implies higher verbal, because whether that test says you have masc or fem thought processes depends on how good your spatial abilities are, which is a performance iq trait, and she scored fem -- on the other hand in her long-form writing her verbal iq looks about average at best)
she also roughly alternates between ways of relating to the world more common in men (aggression, concrete thinking) and in women (emotionality, reading into statements)
>what's cara's relationship with religion?
her parents expressed it in a way that caused her psychological pain, so she's mildly #triggered by the whole thing

If you don't want threads discussing you, don't sleep the board with threads about yourself and your issues.
>>7898443
I'm not cara i'm the anon that always asks you about questions relating to AGP / HSTS and also bugs cara to start HRT.
>>7898443

how do you estimate her iq and her verbal iq from long-form writing?
>>7898481
it's a very rough estimate, i'm not that good at pinpointing iqs
i've read enough on the topic to know approximately where someone's likely to be, though
she's sent me longer (several paragraphs) things she's written, so i have a decent exposure to the maximum complexity of her communication
>>7898466
i did, but >>7898443 is not me

Oh, no offense blanchard anon but i'm a bit skeptical of this book based off of the title alone, is it really worth reading if I want to understand A*P typology better? Why is it that everyone hates A*PS, specifically AGP so much....
>>7898518
the book's title is stupid
it was written by an agp woman, who thinks the title is okay and many of the people whose stories are categorized in it agree, but if i were agp i wouldn't like it much either
the woman who wrote it also does the thing a lot of transsexualism researchers do where they refer to people by natal rather than transitioned sex, so that should be noted at some (not all) points in the book
but she doesn't hate agps, and despite the language issues it's a very sympathetic and well-writte/researched book
>>7898533
>but if i were agp i wouldn't like it much either
i'm agp and i don't like it much really but it's still true and i can understand her choosing it as the title. also it's from a chapter in bailey's book.
>>7898533
>it's a very sympathetic and well-written/researched book
Okay fine I believe you.
I also had a somewhat unrelated question I wanted to ask you, do you think over time assuming societies becomes more tolerant of TS people A*Ps will cease to transition later in life? Or is their something about A*P sexuality that causes some people to transition later in life regardless of the social stigma that may or may not surround them?
>>7898586
I think A*P may be really common but to varying degrees of intensity so its impossible to know whether it will lead to transition until it does.
I doubt seemingly normal functional teenagers with a slight agp kink would ever transition over it, but if it keeps growing it can take over their lives and then maybe they'll transition late.

Not op forgot to remove the tag
>>7898647
>blanchard anon never uses capitalization
Exactly, I was going to say I'm not him, but it's pretty obvious lol
>>7898686
yeah ik i've been awake a long time and am really tired leave me alone

But transitioning early is essential for passing.

Explain?
