First post. Smiles.
A well-written example of an inner struggle faced by many men. Kudos
Hmm, it's been a while since I last read a story in present tense. Hard to pull off right.
I can relate so very much…
… especially when stairs get involved.
You have a weird fetish, Flash, but so did Flash from the other story by ss&e.
That was so beautiful.

You might want to try letting go of that obsession of yours about wanting to be first post/comment.

These have all been good reads and very interesting, but something about this one in particular...
I haven't the words except to say that it touches something very nicely. A "good-touch" if there ever was one.
Thanks for sharing.
Gosh damn, I loved this one. It really spoke to me.
"It's not a phase, mom."
The world does not deserve these two wonderfully beautiful souls.
I feel like this was a unique and well-presented glimpse into a way of seeing the world that I otherwise might not understand. And yet, I can relate to the appreciation of (and the desire to emulate) many of femininity’s positive qualities, which seems to underpin where Flash is coming from. And I can definitely understand having tastes and interests that don’t line up with the mainstream, as well as the pain that can cause. I think this was relatable as an exploration of that feeling.
Overall I think Flash is a criminally underused and under-explored character, and I’m always keen to see him being used well. Though this has also had the potentially unintended side-effect of making me see the virtue of a Flash X Rarity ship...
What an absolute egg

Flashbulous indeed.

Hoo, boy. I read this in a vulnerable state, and it left a mark.
Overall, the theme is excellent, and I'm always done for more decent portrayals of trans/genderqueer/whatever characters. The references to specific real-world figures felt odd (Jamie Farr is an alien name in a world of Twilight Sparkles and Sunset Shimmers).
I can't comment much as to the mechanical quality of the story, seeing as I was four deep in the booze trough, but I am glad you wrote this story. It means something to me. What that something is, I'm not sure, but it's better than oblivion.
This, this so much.
Shine on you crazy bastard.
9386291 Thumbs up Paloma.
This story is full of wonderfully Rarity sentences, but this one stood out to me.
In any case, wonderful character interaction and meditation on those whose passions clash with their expected gender roles. Great work. Thank you for it.
I believe it’s called “foofiness overload.”
Poor Flash, ah-AH.
The journey of self discovery is an arduous one, that can only really be made easier with the help of understanding friends. It is truly a shame that most of us feel that we can’t trust most of the people we know to help us along. I think that, even with societal expectations changing more for the in recent years, that it is still difficult for people to find the courage to risk displaying their true self...
Hrmm, here I am, getting all philosophical. That’s a sign that your story is making me think a lot. Flashtastic.
Writers tend to write the stuff they'd like to hear. Extremely prominent in the second chapter. Excellent portrayal of Rarity. Real fine dialogue.
You come close to explaining and expressing the fetish in a relatable manner. A bulk of the plot is lifted by dialogue than events, which shows in the second chapter, but the damn good dialogue and development remedies this flaw.
Good work and words, skirts.
Yr. Pal, B
While I cringe at the how much Flash likes dressing girly. That doesn't change the message of the song which reminds me of any brony who still worry of confessing their love for the show of fear of stigma.
Overall, Love this mature take this story took.
This was fun. This was cute. It does kind of help me understand the author's Flash Sentry a bit more.
Reading this, I would think he's a transgender "egg" almost (and the author by extension) but he seems pretty sure there's a difference so I believe him. Not totally sure if Rarity does though with the "Miss Sentry" bit.
This is a nice "go read this" story to help someone grasp Skirt's dress obsession.
Really adore the characterization of Rarity in this story. Gentle, caring, and ladylike above all else.
The topic of the story itself is interesting, a perspective I don't think I've ever heard of before when it comes to these things. It's refreshing to see a story provide a discussion around these topics without feeling like it's demanding you feel one way or the other. Well done!
