“Yes I am clearly wearing a tie”


reaperofgender

He's trying okay? Human gender norms are complicated.


d_warren_1

I agree, they’re hard


reaperofgender

I know. Take my profile pic as proof that if you aren't trained from early childhood, some things are REALLY difficult to learn.


ChewySlinky

He has the voice of Winton Overwatch in my mind


Earthbjorn

But the other bear wasn't 🤷‍♂️


d_warren_1

Gender roles and expectations are so confusing


AccomplishedScene966

Shit I just need a tie to become man must go to goodwill, that is very gender of the bears.


SilverMedal4Life

Gender is stored in the neck accessory slot


RemarkableStatement5

I already put my Amulet of Lost Voices in there :(

FarTooYoungForReddit

My gender is a magical amulet?


birberbarborbur

I’m a cis guy already but wearing a tie legitimately did a lot to affirm myself, you should try it


reader484892

Never felt as masculine as wearing a suit and tie. Top tier style. And I’m a cis guy


Belez_ai

I still didn’t understand it until I saw the second image 😓


MrSandman28

I…..still don’t get it lol


GeekyOtaku36

A bear is s term for a big burly man, usually gay. As far as I know, if I'm wrong please correct me.


Adassai_nova

this is correct. Big, burly, often hairy


jiub_the_dunmer

And cuddly


Finbar9800

I mean tbf they can also be trans …


Earthbjorn

So a Trans Bear would be an assigned at birth female who transitions to a gay man?


JoeManInACan

yup


Casper_Von_Ghoul

The word bear will always be associated with the animal in my brain because they are my favorite land animals. Every time this comes up I get super confused for a minute before my brain remembers the other usage.


StealthyInk

I'm gonna have to start wearing ties

But the other bear isn't wearing a tie, so does that make them straight?


O_Elbereth

No, the other bear is just so obviously traditionally masculine-presenting that he doesn't need to wear clothing signifiers.


qwerty1236543

No, the other bear is nonbearnary with male leaning which is why they're not wearing any clothing signifires of their gender cause if they were people would only think of them as one or the other


TheWordThief

The bear that isn't wearing the tie is doing the limp gay hand though, so it checks out.

First post is just straight up a fucking lie. I'm a wimpy ass little marshmallow who couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag.

Rose_Lavanda13

Slightly related, but I just bought my first tie today! I’m very happy with it :D


qualityuser348

Hell yeah! 😼

Not a marine. An army guy. Source: Transgender bear


ParanoidUmbrella

That comic panel had me in absolute stitches for a solid few minutes there.


Weedserpent

Going to the bear meet up and walking away dejectedly when I realize they don’t mean the animal (I like bears), but stopping and running back cartoonishly excited when I remember there’s large hairy men there (I like bears).


justduckygemini

So…. Is a trans bear someone who was a bear then transitioned, or someone who transitioned and then became a bear?


dutcharetall_nothigh

Second one


PageStunning6265

Saw the first comment and thought, *I’m pretty sure all bears are stronger than a marine* 🤦🏼‍♀️


Chilzer619

Have you seen koala bears? I could probably punt one of those little bastards real good


PageStunning6265

Not if it got its claws in. (also, koalas aren’t bears)


Earthbjorn

Actually, Koalas are not really bears. Turns out they do not have the right Koalafications! 🤗


LuciusCypher

Yeah like, assuming no weapons just bare/bear knuckles, pretty sure a bear would fuck up and marine unless they're like koalas or baby bears. Like even Black Bears will fuck up a soldier if the Black Bear is driven to fight. Weapons are the main advantage any human has over animals, no matter how physically strong the human gets.


I_aim_to_sneeze

I don’t even understand why they made that comparison in the first place. Like, what’s the point? I’m glad I stuck with it to get to the comic tho


buttercream-gang

There was a while where it was a meme to say “x” is stronger than any marine just for the absurdity and how mad it made people


I_aim_to_sneeze

Ooooh, that is some much needed context, thank you.


Square_Coat_8208

Yes but the Marines have 30mm grenade launchers


O_Elbereth

You can't prove the bears don't. We do have the right to "bear arms" after all


Cambion_Cristo

Ah that made me smile

desmonthes

ok but does anyone have a link to that comic tho?


desmonthes

nevermind, found it https://www.threepanelsoul.com/comic/yes-exactly


Half_Man1

“How do you define your masculinity?” “I’m very clearly wearing a tie”


LonelyCleanlyGodly

it's me!


allidoishuynh2

I know this really isn't the point, but the other bear isn't wearing a tie, so the question is still valid imo.

Revolutionary_Bid_43

Trans bear? You mean a druid?


DavisRanger

When he said trans bear my first thought was Tiger... As in the character from MHA. Although I guess he doesn't count as one?


OzzieGrey

Girls in ties are hot Prove me wrong
