#basically it all comes down to the only change being socialization and reception.... bc i dont think who u are changes much between genders

[randombubblegum]

what do you think are some of the main differences between parx and girl parx (aside from the obvious of appearance, pronouns etc)

oh man i think about this all the time honestly...... my idea of girlparx being as it is a genderbend au is that everything is the same except they grew up as girls and not boys, so personalities and life events would stay largely the same..... the one major thing that would change is the way they were treated by others and socialized to act ESPECIALLY being into the music scene.

awsten already has a permanent chip on his shoulder from how Band Dudes treated him in the scene, otto the same to a lesser extent, so coming up as a chick girlparx awsten would be treated much worse and therefore have an even stronger need to prove herself (at first) and then just say fuck it to whatever shes “supposed” to do being in a band (eventual). ever since she was like 14 and started going to shows and playing guitar its been a constant barrage of “oh yeah? name 5 of their songs” “can you even play that thing?” “so whose girlfriend are you” etc etc and worse and shittier, and when shes actually In bands instead of just Watching bands it grates on her even more. plus boy awsten got a lot of shit for being a prettyboy, non-masculine, etc so girl awsten in the same spaces would get a similar brand of garbage to deal with i think...... but a core tenet of awstens personality is not knowing when to quit or back down so it doesnt stop her from making parx and promoing it the same way. but it makes her cling even closer to her dude friends who dont treat her like that (jawn, travis)

as for otto...... she dodges most of the misogyny awsten gets hit with by nature of being quiet, a drummer and not a frontman, a tomboy, etc, but she hates the band culture just as much as awsten and hates seeing awsten tear herself to pieces over it...... shes buff but not rly a jock (like boy otto) so shes kind of a lesbian heartthrob without having any idea about it LOL. actually so is boy otto so is this even a change

and geoff wasnt in bands until parx so she missed all of that!!!! tbh i feel like geoff changes the least in girlparx...... i think she would be less willing to talk about pokemon and nintendo and nerdy stuff with people she doesnt trust after getting called a fake gamer girl growing up for not liking rEaL gAmEs but she still loves them just as much!!!!! shes still a myspace scene queen and awsten still doesnt want her over bc she wore a choker :) no change

Anaconda, Andrew Bogut, and Animals: aliyah e Id 50129, 4 Yrs., 45 lbs of Gentle Manhattan ACC INTAKE DATE: 01-02-2019 “I was returned after only 2 weeks because my new family’s dog attacked me and hurt me. She told my parents it was me or her, and they chose her.” ☹ Timid little house mouse Aaliyah is so gentle, loving and sweet, and she has found herself at the least comforting place in NYC – the Manhattan Care Center. Her beautiful almond eyes show her confusion and angst, but the volunteers comfort her, hold her close, and let her know that they will try very hard to find her a new family to love. During her stay she has made friends, and she adores spending time in the play yard with them, carefree and chasing tennis balls with glee. Aaliyah looks nothing so much as a young deer, delicate of features, small in stature, and hoping with all her gentle heart that the volunteers are right, and her dream of a home for the holidays will come true. All this girl needs is a quiet, calm, loving home with a routine she can count on. She is a good girl, with a loving heart. Hurry and Message or page or email us at MustLoveDogsNYC@gmail.com for assistance fostering or adopting Aaliyah now. A volunteer writes: “She has an endearing face that begs for a walk and company and this is why I picked Aaliyah as my first date of the day at the care center. Aaliyah is a shy little gal, a bit lost but who here and there reveals that she might have a happy and playful personality. The sight of a ball sends her running and jumping, even catching the object at times. She comes briefly on the bench, gives a furtive kiss to her caretaker, takes a treat that she spits out or go to the gate, wagging her tail at a handsome male seeking her company. And then, she is her timid mouse, again, waiting for her mind to warm up some more and bloom into the likely sweet and social dog she really is. Come and meet Aaliyah at the Manhattan Care Center and help her find again her livelihood!” MY VIDEOS: Adrian aka Aaliyah - the lovliest little lady https://youtu.be/YhrkQxZza0M Adrian aka Aaliyah and Beignet https://youtu.be/J44SybgMc3Q Rigby and Aaliyah in playgroup https://youtu.be/fk8vvmdnH0Q AALIYAH aka ADRIAN, ID# 50129, @ 4 Yrs.

It is important to avoid touching Adrians's paws at this time and to be cautious when touching her in other areas as we do not know where she may have other sensitivities.

Shelter contact information: Phone number (212) 788-4000 Email adopt@nycacc.org Shelter Addresses: Brooklyn Shelter: 2336 Linden Boulevard Brooklyn, NY 11208 Manhattan Shelter: 326 East 110 St. New York, NY 10029 Staten Island Shelter: 3139 Veterans Road West Staten Island, NY 10309 *** NEW NYC ACC RATING SYSTEM *** Level 1 Dogs with Level 1 determinations are suitable for the majority of homes. These dogs are not displaying concerning behaviors in shelter, and the owner surrender profile (where available) is positive. Some dogs with Level 1 determinations may still have potential challenges, but these are challenges that the behavior team believe can be handled by the majority of adopters. The potential challenges could include no young children, prefers to be the only dog, no dog parks, no cats, kennel presence, basic manners, low level fear and mild anxiety. Level 2 Dogs with Level 2 determinations will be suitable for adopters with some previous dog experience. They will have displayed behavior in the shelter (or have owner reported behavior) that requires some training, or is simply not suitable for an adopter with minimal experience. Dogs with a Level 2 determination may have multiple potential challenges and these may be presenting at differing levels of intensity, so careful consideration of the behavior notes will be required for counselling. Potential challenges at Level 2 include no young children, single pet home, resource guarding, on-leash reactivity, mouthiness, fear with potential for escalation, impulse control/arousal, anxiety and separation anxiety. Level 3 Dogs with Level 3 determinations will need to go to homes with experienced adopters, and the ACC strongly suggest that the adopter have prior experience with the challenges described and/or an understanding of the challenge and how to manage it safely in a home environment. In many cases, a trainer will be needed to manage and work on the behaviors safely in a home environment. It is likely that every dog with a Level 3 determination will have a behavior modification or training plan available to them from the behavior department that will go home with the adopters and be made available to the New Hope Partners for their fosters and adopters. Some of the challenges seen at Level 3 are also seen at Level 1 and Level 2, but when seen alongside a Level 3 determination can be assumed to be more severe. The potential challenges for Level 3 determinations include adult only home (no children under the age of 13), single pet home, resource guarding, on-leash reactivity with potential for redirection, mouthiness with pressure, potential escalation to threatening behavior, impulse control, arousal, anxiety, separation anxiety, bite history (human), bite history (dog) and bite history (other). New Hope Rescue Only Dog is not publicly adoptable. Prospective fosters or adopters need to fill out applications with New Hope Partner Rescues to save this dog.
