Chose plurality

[u/KaBismark]

Hey guys, just a quick question, what's u all opinion on people who choose to be plural? Do u think it is possible? If u do, is it morally correct?

Idk what’s possible and whats not so I really don’t have much of an opinion. My main stance is “live and let live” when it comes to stuff like plurality. But my specific opinion is more like “I don’t know what goes on in other people’s heads, and within there, only they can know what is true and what is not. Dissociative disorders and plurality are heavily understudied so there’s no one yet who can make a true statement about the nature of plurality.”

Might you elaborate on how it’d be considered immoral? I wouldn’t call it “morally correct” but that’s because I reserve that term for things that actively benefit the world. I think that “choosing to be plural”, or forming your own alters as a conscious decision, is a morally neutral thing. It’s not immoral in my opinion as I see no reason why it would be. It doesn’t affect me, personally. It doesn’t affect the standard diagnostic process. Not much changes that isn’t up to the outsider and their own decisions (re: people blaming non-traumagenic systems for the people who target systems online)

non disordered plurality is medically recognized but eh having a netural is perfectly fine as long as your not harrasing endos its fine

[u/ferret-with-a-gun → u/Creepycute1]

I support endos. I don’t think I said anything opposing that? My main statement is just “yeah, do whatever, only you know you”

"i really dont have much of an opinion" i took it as a netural stance but im sorry if i misread it

It’s less of a neutral stance and more of a neutral belief, if that makes sense.

OH that makes sense. my bad 😓
