  • I’m not the only one! I drive people crazy in conversations because they’ll be talking to me, and instead of keeping the conversation going I just repeat back what they say as spoonerisms. Also, backwards speak. When my brother and I were little we would be bored lying in bed unable to sleep so we would have conversations saying every word backwards and then try to figure out what the other was saying. We got pretty good at it to the point that my brain processes a lot of what people say backwards and forwards. I’m not as quick about it as I used to be, though.






  • Cishet guy here. I use the term “partner” all the time because I prefer nongendered relational terms. Plus, partner sounds a little more serious than saying “my girlfriend”. We’ve been together 8 years but are not interested in marriage, so I feel like it’s just the best word to use. It is amusing, though, when my partner isn’t present and I’m talking to a stranger, that they often just assume I’m gay when I use it.
