presses button rulepeatedly

Alt: A photo with the text "Would you press this button?" And two images representing options: option 1 is "50% chance of becoming a billionaire" with an image of a shovel full of money, and the other "50% chance of becoming this" being an image of Astolfo, a character from Type-Moon's "Fate" anime/manga/VN series noted for crossdressing as a cute girl, and is commonly identified as a LGBT icon.

Ew. Rather not....

Worry about who was exploited for all that money.

If I get the money I'll just use it to start my life over as a cute and mousy cottage core lady.

I don't think it's nearly as easy to become a perfect cute femboy, as it is to transition. I might be wrong but it's something you really need to get lucky with.

Aeri@lemmy.world · 24 pts · 1y

I mean one-button instant transformation into something cute is a lot easier than surgery and all that.

If I actually became cartoon style femboy in real life, becoming billionaire wouldn't be that hard imo.

Excrubulent@slrpnk.net · 28 pts · 1y (4 replies)

You'd have to abandon all of your ethical principles, and then you'd face the problem of how to keep the wealth you generate rather than having it sucked up by all the existing billionaires who would chew you up, extract every penny they could then spit you out, which is extra difficult because now you're in an intersection of minorities.

And even if you succeeded you'd be a billionaire, and I don't think those people are actually very fulfilled.

Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 21 pts · 1y (3 replies)

If I was a cartoon femboy, I'm pretty sure a few of those existing billionaires would be my simps.

Excrubulent@slrpnk.net · 22 pts · 1y (2 replies)

That thought is, and I cannot stress this enough, legitimately horrifying. Do you know how many of them went to Epstein's island?

These are people who can make nearly anything happen to you, and they don't even have to lift a finger.

I feel like you just told me that Mordor will be great because you'll just put on the One Ring, get Sauron's attention then flash him your tits and he'll be horny so you'll be golden.

Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 4 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Better me than some kids, right? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Excrubulent@slrpnk.net · 13 pts · 1y

Gallant as that is, I don't think it's either/or with these people, I think it's both/and.

They have to keep exploiting and consuming everything and everyone. Whilst I understand that the rapacious drive to infinite growth is systemic, I'm convinced that one of the mechanisms that keeps it going is their own alienation, the deep emptiness and disassociation that comes from living in a world where nobody can tell them no, and they have to fill that hole with something. After your fifth mansion, third private jet and second mega yacht, just buying things doesn't do it, and why did they accumulate so much if they're just miserable anyway?

The only thing left is hurting people with impugnity, because that proves that you have power.

Guess I'm pressing the button, then. Either I become a billionaire and can do whatever I want, or I become a femboy, make bank with photos, videos, and streams of myself, and use the money to do slightly less of whatever I want.

Staying a billionaire wouldn't be however :3

desktop_user@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 1y

you could donate a hundred thousand a year to charities, use two hundred thousand each year inflation adjusted, and have it last until you die, probably.

Matriks404@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

Or a trillionaire if you press it enough times.

Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 36 pts · 1y

Can I press the button until I get both?

trslim@pawb.social · 30 pts · 1y

There is no downside here

Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 26 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Free HRT, I can look hot, and I get a chance at solving world hunger?

Hell yeah!

FMC8456@lemm.ee · 10 pts · 1y

I think you might still need to have HRT if you want the other effects of feminization HRT, like breasts. Might get you closer though.

Simulation6@sopuli.xyz · 24 pts · 1y

Transformed into someone young and healthy? You can keep the money.

FMC8456@lemm.ee · 23 pts · 1y (4 replies)

I'm already a cute femboy, I would want to be rich though.

desktop_user@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 10 pts · 1y (1 reply)

but imagine long pink natural hair

FMC8456@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y

That would be neat, and would make dying it easier in some ways.

perviouslyiner@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 1y (1 reply)

So, you already pressed the button?

FMC8456@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 1y

Not exactly, just kinda got a lucky roll on the genetic lottery.

Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 1y

Life as a cartoon might be interesting . Especially of this variety. I think the tentacle sex wouldn't be so bad, sign me up.

One one hand I absolutely despise capitalists, on the othe hand I really want to look like that (but in a very not cis and very sis way)

Sounds like a Mega Man boss. Femme Man, maybe? You get Skirt Spin, which is like Top Sin but cute and useful

Kowowow@lemmy.ca · 13 pts · 1y

If I had to be stuck with a feminine body I'd probably just go the rest of the way and get some boobs

How is this even a question? There's no downside.

I didn't get any money.

Blazingtransfem98@discuss.online · 10 pts · 1y

I want that so badly, even though I pass well enough now, I would love to be cute like that since I'm not super feminine as I am now. If I got the money I would use it to finally get voice surgery and bottom surgery.

I think basically everyone here would press both as many times as they could, there's no downside

Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I might actually press the button zero times. Genuinely. I am pretty well convinced by now that being a billionaire is a mental health disaster, and I'm cis.

But being thin again would be nice...
