I have actually in the past dated another eh… system within one body, ‘she’ had a primary identity/consciousness that was in command maybe 85% of the time, but a number of others would take over or emerge in various situations.
I guess the… totality of myself and all of the ‘alters’ (this was the term ‘she’ used) within ‘her’ body (afab body, but the alters were of varying genders, and pronouns, grammar is hard) … well we all did not end up working out as a ‘couple’ (… again, grammar) but I don’t see that as any reason to take my one experience with such a system and use it to just immediately negatively paint every other similar system I encounter.
Glad you recognised us for what we are and weren’t horrible about it. So many on lemmy are, sadly.
Ah, we actually did see it happening, but passed by them most of the time.
Yeah, we agree, intentionally causing irreparable damage to one or many’s self or selves is not a good thing.
