I would just treat them like everyone else if so many of them weren't hyper-entitled assholes who want all of society to confirm to them, by changing laws, forcing language to be changed and for people to have to lie to them and themselves, and trying to beat biological women in sports.
I don't believe one can change their sex and I never will, and I'm not going to be pressured into lumping in men into the same group of people I find sexually attractive, women. I would be, and am, fine with people doing whatever they want even if I don't agree with it, as long as they aren't hurting others. But so many transpeople are just complete and utter assholes. Bitching about "transphobia" just so you can be a biological man that gets to beat women makes you a piece of sh"t. It has nothing to do with being trans; anyone who would need to destroy society just to have their fickle insecurities placated are a piece of sh*t. And that's what I keep seeing.
Of course, some transpeople are cool, like Blaire White. They can respect others and not try to destroy society just to get their way. They don't whine and bitch about pronouns or ask people to lie to them or belittle themselves and sense of reality by calling a man in a dress a "she" and "her." They don't demand the world kiss their asses 24/7.
And then you got the Jessica Yaniv, Tiffany Moore, and Caitlin Jenner crowd. The ones who are such horrible human beings, it makes all transpeople look bad by comparison. The group is so small, once you start allowing assholes like them to do whatever they want, it makes all transpeople be hated and resented by normal society.
I know not all transpeople are SJW's like that, but it's like a tug of war of public opinion. And right now, the assholes side are making it so that regular people dislike dealing with transpeople more so than tolerating them (which will then lead to acceptance).
You don't get to strong-arm society into respecting you, nor do you get to say "sleep with me, suck my dick, and wax my balls, or I'm going to call you a 'transphobe' and Cancel you." If that was anyone, trans or not, I'd tell them to f*ck off. That's not how acceptance works, but too many transpeople (at least propped up by the media) are like that nowadays.
So my opinion is, I want to treat them like everyone else, but the ones trying to control language, sports, restrooms, children's puberty, and society in general are making me and probably most people less and less tolerant and patient with them.30 Reply

+1 yThey have a medical condition that shouldn't be taken lightly as they have many issues they have to face and we shouldn't pretend like this is a good thing or normal when its not. Now do I think trans people should be treated with respect? Of course, I don't know any one who would say otherwise and that is including people who are critical of transgenderism. But one should not pander just because some one is suffering because that doesn't make things better.
They have a 16x higher suicide rate compared to the average, thats a big deal. Pushing transgenderism as normal is horrible as most people who are "transgender" grow out of it (it happens most often in the teen years as hormones change and body changes they acquire body dismorphia which is pretty common but once puberty is well on its way they grow out of it). This has lead to many "transgender" people to detransition, however the damage to their bodies as this idea of any and all dismorphia must be transgenderism and must be treated with hormone replacement and drastic surgeries with no delay is completely counter to science and also insane. As a result they are now permanently damaged, almost always permanently sterilized and their is no fixing things once this procedure has been done, you can mitigate the changes but not get rid of them and that will affect their health (we know that increased gender hormones in the opposite gender leads to cancer and sterility for example) and their social lives (voice changes that cannot be reversed, features that cannot be reversed, damage to genitalia and thus their sexual capabilities and all the psychological aspects tied to it etc.).
So you treat every one with respect and dignity, but you MUST be very careful, many of these so called "transgender" people are seeking attention and want to be special (in the trans community these people are often called transsetters because its just trendy for them and not an actual medical condition), many others have had this idea pushed onto them (especially younger ones) when they where confused about their own bodies and situations and where not given time to figure things out before being pushed down this road by irresponsibe people, and lastly, it has lasting changes to their bodies and their lives that cannot be reversed so it should be deliberated on for a long time. You wouldn't want a doctor rushing to a conclusion, that just because you have pain in your abdomen he shouldn't be calling to perform surgery on you immediatley to cut out a tumor without consulation and testing and x rays etc. so why would transgenderism be any different?(and it is treated differently.).
If after all of this they are shown to be transgender, they want to go through the procedures they feel are best for them, then they have that right and they should not be punished for something they have no control over, but again, we shouldn't take this as lightly as so many in society are trying to do.10 Reply
+1 yI don't have any negative opinion on them as people. I judge people based on their personality and views. In that respect, good and bad transgender people exist just like people of any other group. However, I don't agree that transgender people are the biological sex that they claim to be. Biological sex isn't something that can be chosen because it's based on biological roles during reproduction that can't altered. For example, if a person has 46, XY chromosomes and the reproduction role of producing sperm and fertilizing egg cells, then the person is male. If a person has 46, XX chromosomes and the reproduction role of producing cell eggs and giving birth to offspring, then the person is female. Simply undergoing a surgery, taking hormones, and behaving in a stereotypical way as the opposite sex doesn't actually make a person the opposite sex because doing so doesn't add new reproduction roles. It simply gets rid of those roles. I personally believe that people should accept their biological sex and love themselves instead of becoming transgender. I also disagree with people that my call my view of this "transphobia." It's simply basic biology.

that's weirdly the opposite of what i thought you would have said a year ago, did you have some sort of epiphany?
To all the transphobes in the comments, happy pride month 🏳️🌈 !
Not all trans individuals have dysphoria, in fact many doctors have concluded that transitioning is the best and only way to help with dysphoria. Dysphoria also isn’t a mental illness, it’s an emotional state.
And lastly, biology isn’t as simple as xx and xy chromosomes. Multiple things go into determine an individuals sex, but gender is a social construct. Femininity and masculinity are both performative social constructs.
That’s why you can see biological women being called/compared to men just for having deep voices or being tall.
I support the trans community, that’s my opinion.814 Reply

biology is very simple; born with a penis is male born with a vagina is female; all other exceptions are outside the scope of normal everyday life and can be ignored for this conversation
and studies repeatedly show transitioning doesn't work A review of more than 100 studies found no long term benefits of gender reassignment surgery at all for trans people. And that many studies had poor methodology heavily skewed towards telling trans people what they wanted to hear which means encourages the operations even though they have no positive effects www.theguardian.com/.../health.socialcare - +1 y
@007kingifrit if biology was that simple than people majoring it are just stupid I guess? Biology isn’t that simple, I’m pretty sure I’ve already explained you this on multiple other threads regarding transgender people (also why tf are trans people called transexual in that article, sex and gender are two different things so if the article doesn’t know that than Whoever wrote it has no place to even talking about weather conversion is right or not.
The truth is multiple studies show that an extremely low amount of transgender individuals regret transitioning, not only that but trans people don’t get to just wake up one day and transition? They have to go threw a lot of stuff and it takes years before most transitioning Procedures are even approved.
Lastly, I’ll explain this. Genitalia does not equal gender. Intersex people with sexual and reproductive anatomy that doesn’t fit the typical definitions of female or male exist. Simplifying a persons gender to just their genitalia is simplified biology that doctors and literal scientists have abandoned.
Since labeling someone’s gender at birth based off genetalia doesn’t fully capture the complex biological, anatomical, and chromosomal variations that can occur.

@Twinrova yes, it’s exactly why young boys are taught to hate everything that’s feminine because their parents are “scared it will make them gay”. It’s exactly why boys will grow up with this mindset and end up having fragile masculinity because if these boys weren’t taught to hate feminine things at a young age than when they where older they would be comfortable in their masculinity to the point they’d know that doing their nails, liking a show that’s “for girls”, or even having a naturally higher pitched voice doesn’t make them less masculine.

biology as a subject is not simple, biology on THIS topic is very simple. don't reduce words its childish
you also totally ignored my list of 100 studies in favor of a far less scientific idea of asking people if they regret big choices. OF COURSE people won't admit they regret their choices... that would require them to admit they made a mistake... which people won't do. SOOOO your study is unscientific as it relies on self reported information. all studies that rely on this are fake

If you really want to get into that fine.

As it is a relatively new research topic it's not know for sure if surgery can relieve symptoms of gender dysphoria but that is the known cause of suicide.

Actually, the absolute truth is that surgery can be used to try to make a man look like a woman, but surgery cannot turn a man into a woman. A woman has XX chromosomes in every cell of her body. She is born with a uterus, ovaries, a vagina and all the other parts that distinguish men and women. No surgeon can make that happen to a man. And the same is true of women who want to become men. You can try to imitate a man and some of them may learn to act like a man in some ways, but looking somewhat like a man doesn't make you a man.
You can repeat your lie a million times but that does not make it true. - +1 y
@OlderAndWiser Very well said!

I have nothing against them and even have a couple of trans friends. Yet I disagree heavily with the most radical kinds of trans-activism. Take Riley Dennis' thoughts as an example:
https://www.youtube.com/embed/HVS5kGU1JooI'm also at least reluctant about trans athletes participating in women's sports. I realize the average trans person probably doesn't have much of an advantage but gold medals are awarded to the extremities. It seems extremely improbable to me that a Mary Gregory, if she lacked any sort of physiological advantage as a result of HRT, and as a member of a group that makes up less than 0.5% of the world's population, can break four women's powerlifting world records in one day if there was no physical advantage to being a transwoman participating in women's sports.
So I'm against a lot of radical trans-activism of this sort but not against trans people at all. I am against the ideology that would label me "cissexist" or transphobic for refusing to date a trans person, for example, but have nothing against trans people. In fact, the most radical forms of that ideology didn't even seem to originate with trans people to my understanding. It was pushed by critical theorists to my understanding.02 Reply- +1 y
I am against the ideology that would make it a hate crime if I inadvertently misgendered a person sporting a full beard and t-shirt and jeans and referred to the person as a "he/him", not knowing the person identifies as a woman. I've not met a single trans person who would hold such a thing against me though.

But not after seeing a therapist mot because I want that therapist to talk it out of you. But I want that therapist to help you find out if that really is what you want and if yes than go ahead.
Never make the change before at least 18 the Childs mind isn't capable of understanding what it means to do a sex/genderswap maybe that causes them to be in pain longer but it also prevents them from doing something they are gonna regret. Sometimes as a Child wanting to be the other gender is Just a phase and in other cases it is a serious mental illness that only can be fixed by a sexchange operation.
A side from being born in the wrong body there is nothing wrong with trans People. However when dating. You should always make it clear before the first Kiss that you we're the other gender before.
I Personally don't care if you are trans or not but when it comes to dating a trans person can never fullfill my wishes in a relationship like wanting children the natural so that is why I will not be wanting to date a trans person. Doesn't mean I don't respect them. I Am Just not in to them. Last year I when going to a bar was still allowed my bartender was a dude when we come back there if they open in the hopefully near future he will be a chick. I won't change bars because of it I will Just order my beer and treat m with the same respect as before.

+1 yI think having surgery for emotional reasons is dumb in general, this could be breast implants or a face lift on a porn star, those weird body mods to look like a freaky monster person, or turning a penis into a vagina for a trans person, etc. Surgery should fix health problems, not cause them.
I also don't agree that there are male and female ways of thinking, and I see no issue in men wearing a dress and makeup or a woman wearing sweatpants and a hoodie, or having hobbies that dont match a gendered stereotype, so I don't think "feeling like you are trapped in the wrong body" makes any sense to me, because the only thing gendered is the body, the mind is genderless.
I don't hold any ill will toward trans people, but I typically don't get along with them because anyone willing to cut into themselves because of how they feel is a very different mindset than the "I don't eat red meat because of the cancer risk type of mind", its kind of like bringing an atheist to a church, or a beer company owner to alcoholics anonymous, or an oil rig owner to a climate change summit. or putting the owner of a tobacco company in the FDA. they will never see eye to eye from a morality perspective when it comes to safety and logical steps to avoid risks.079 Reply

You keep telling yourself that dude, also the idea that you can't have unneeded surgery that causes damage to the body because you already have body damage, is like saying you can't get damaged in a car crash because you scraped your knee, or fell off a ladder and broke both legs.
transgender surgery is done in an area where, even with no preexisting health issues, it can kill you during the procedure, because of how many major blood vessels run through there.
So the idea of "person A's health isn't good enough to safely do it" is ridiculous, as there is no such thing as safely having that surgery. - +1 y

Asker+1 yYou didn’t win anything. Saying you won a debate makes you a sore loser.
- +1 y
Sore nothing, I legitimately proved my point, you did not.
I'm saying I won the debate because there is nothing left to talk about since you keep repeating falsehoods that make no sense, instead of even attempting to explain why you think you are right, (and I keep correcting them).
I explained logically why what you said was incorrect, and your response was to be a toxic record player.
You are attempting to defeat an argument with literally zero backing up of your claim, while using flawed circular logic.
The point of winning an argument is to reveal truth, not win a prize, just grow up and admit your argument makes no sense, and that you shouldn't be expecting others to give up logic just because they don't agree with you after you did so yourself.
Asker+1 yHold on I’m gonna laugh.

that's not how rights work, trans ask for special treatment and demand we think of them differently than they actually are
you do not have the right to ask me to lie for you
furthermore they are dangerous as they damage the concept of science with self asserted truths taht nobody else can observe

My opinion simply put is this you do you and as long as your upfront about cool I’m neither for nor against transgenders I believe that they are human beings at the end of the day. That being said so long as they aren’t forcing their ideology on anyone and continue to be a productive member of society I see no reason to have an opinion on them.

My next door neighbors trans daughter is only 17 and he comes out the house in hot pants and dresses and acts really inappropriately at times. It's hard to keep a straight face I will amit and I don't agree with how there parents are letting them leave the house. If it was a non trans girl you wouldn't allow her to go out the house looking like that as a respectable parent so why is it okay for for there trans daughter go out dressed like a hooker. Honestly I'm not slut shaming but it's borderline public indecency.
These are the types of people who gives trans people a bad name and make them look crazy and embarrassing when most just wanna be treated like human beings and get on with there lifes.

I only have one problem with the trans community I've never been a fan of paying someone to cut, remove or add things to your body because you don't like the way it looks and I keep thinking if I have children I'd never allow my daughter to get breast implants or anything along those lines so why would I allow them to remove their breasts or my son his member, part of me hopes that they're drawn to the lifestyle and don't actually care to be that gender because I wouldn't know how to deal with that, self acceptance is important to me some might say it's easy for me too say but I've seen those who go through with altering themselves it doesn't end well.

I kind of treat it as a religion, so it should be separated from state laws. Gendered spaces such as prisons, sports, clubs, etc. should be based on biological sex, but transmen should not be allowed in women's sports because they take testosterone.
4K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic. I think that like Asperger, ADHD and people who claim they are allergic to gluten, there are way too many self diagnosed wannabes who decide they are different for odd reasons they may not understand themselves.
And our neo liberal snowflake culture accepts every single claim for fear of being labelled a bigot.
If you tell me you’re allergic to gluten... I know intellectually that you might be. I also know that statistically you’re lying and can’t spell celiac to save your life.
If you’re under 18 and tell me you’re trans and by coincidence a bunch of your peers have said they are trans... and you haven’t seen a psychiatrist to rule out other conditions? Yeah. Maybe you are. But it’s far more likely you’re not.
Until society starts gate keeping these self diagnosed conditions, we will continue to see increasing numbers of detransing people and trans suicides.10 Reply

A good friend of mine has a 19 year old son that is currently transitioning, as they call it. Great kid. Worked for me for a while. About to enter university and go into the sciences. Better head on his shoulders than most 19 year olds. I was relieved that his father accepted all of this as well as he has because as he said, he wasn't ready for it. But he's been a good father in all of this. Hope it all turns out well for the kid.
10 ReplyI've met about 6 trans people. My honest opinion is that they act, and do the same way/things that their original gender normally does, I've never seen them act or do things that their chosen gender does beyond outside appearances. It seems more like a thin vineer with no substance behind it, which is confusing to me.
The only behavior I've seen from some trans that I flatly dislike is on dating apps they register as there chosen gender but match with others of there original gender. I don't know why they can't check a box that says they are looking for gay relationships. I do not want to match with trans people, and there is no setting on my side that I can toggle. It's not a problem it's just an annoyance and seems inconsiderate on the trans person's part.00 Reply- 7.4K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic.

They need to be conscious of not projecting their view of reality onto others. They should be respectful of all the other screwed up people who do associate to their dna genetics.
lastly, there must be a "generator" creating them, for they would burnout and expire quickly due to lack of ability to reproduce. Something seems jacked up in society/environment.

If you call me transphobic for that so be it. In my experience people that claim to be non-binary make a bigger fuss about being male or female than any one else.
I don´t have much respect for a subject like gender studies but that´s a different topic because in my view is a subject of psychology.
I personally don´t have anything against them and they can live as they wish to. I´m not supporting LBGTQ and but I´m harrassing or protesting against it. There was a never where I really question about my sexuality concerning the choice like changing it so I´ll have a time trying to connect with them.00 ReplyI don't like the prescriptions that come with me "accepting" their gender identity. I think that pronouns are based on sex; they always have been, because defining our pronouns on a sex-laden basis is useful. Transgendered people tell me that instead, pronouns (e. g. he, her, etc...) should be based on gender, not sex. But then this is problematic, because gender is a useless concept. Gender, no matter how I have heard it defined, is always useless and/or meaningless garbage, and to top it all off, no one can even agree on a single theory of gender. I'm told by people who want me to refer to trans people by their preferred pronouns that pronouns should be based on gender, but because it is such a dumb and confusing concept, I will have to disagree. I love trans people as much as anyone else, but I object to the gender ideology espoused by those in the trans community and far left.
Maybe you can show me why I'm wrong, but to be honest, I doubt it.04 Reply

but the #1 most dangerous thing they are doing is unraveling science via the implosion principle. the implosion principle states that if we accept one untruth into a body of knowledge then the body of knowledge as a whole can be twisted into any shape. This becomes very dangerous as religions disguised as science can make their way into mainstream society under the guise of supposed experts
string theory opened the door to fake science by saying unobservable things could be science, which allowed gender studies to exist, which then allowed really dangerous and violent things like critical race theory to exist

And trying so hard to impose the “cis” concept is why too. I find it so bizzare that, instead of, being a woman, now I am a “cis woman” so that you can call yourself a “trans woman”. And THAT is why people won’t accept the concept of “transgender” or whatever gender.
Don't mind those who are actually trans. That means actually transitioning from one gender to the other. I don't however agree with the non-binary, "there is 8 billion genders" rubbish for the simple reason being is I only see, and have only ever experienced attention-seeking behaviour from them.

the name doesn't match the concept
with men and women it doesn't matter what you call them... there is an underlying concept that is never wrong and cannot be argued against - +1 y
@007kingifrit Okay you want to talk about concepts. Yes, gender is a natural construct, I agree they exist. But Gender reassignment surgery is something that has been researched scientifically. Techniques that have been practised and perfected over decades. It involves hormone replacement, and anyone that knows anything knows that hormones tend to control your behaviour and urges quite a lot. So if you replace testosterone with estrogen and snip things off and tuck things in you are changing someone from one gender to the other.
The name does in fact match the concept. Now kindly, see yourself out. - +1 y
there is nothing scientific about gender related research. gender cannot be observed or falsified; 2 of the most important concepts in science.

I eventually lost touch with a friend who 'became' a woman, and ran away to teach in China, but could never go further than having crushes on her students.
She epitomised the saddest aspects for me because she prefers girls, and put her need to change down to her upbringing. Her carer - granny, I think - wanted a girl and stupidly grew his hair as a girl's; other things too, obviously. So realised they wanted to be a lesbian, and was able to have the operation on the UK NHS in their thirties!

+1 yTrans or not, everyone is human and have the right to be who they want to be. Be with who they want to be, dress however they want and live however they want.
So in my opinion, there should be no opinion about trans people because there are no
opinions about straight people.
Everyone should just mind their own business and stop judging.20 Reply

If my man decided he wanted to say, "Hey, babe, we need to talk... im trans, im going by Joanna from now on," i would support her & her transition to be Joanna instead of Joseph.
Would it throw me for a loop? Fuck yeah, but theyre still my Joey.

It’s not about you. Slippery slope. But If you get your penis cut off and do the full transition, go right ahead. But if Monday-Wed you’re a guy and Thursday and Friday a girl and on the weekend a mineral, you expect everyone to bend over backwards to whatever you feel like that day?

@007kingifrit Funny you say that, last night I was talking with the God and doing some brainstorming and I was like you cannot even entertain the idea. You can’t say what I said about “Doing your own thing” because then I’m agreeing that it is real. Brainwashed by compassion. You push the bizarre idea and then when people fight it, you say “Where is your compassion?” I thought you were a nice person. And that’s what I did. Even though I know deep down it’s completely bogus and that it’s more of a Divide & Conquer strategy (from the Elites), I acted on emotion. I put my thought of reasoning out the window and skipped towards compassion. That’s what pi**es me off too. They keep pushing more and more and more and more and more x forever. Yet, we still put up with it and they call us unhinged...

@thebigguy9 there you go, compassion is a guilt mechanism they use to control us.
you can't build a society on inclusion, societies by their very definition are exclusionary or they don't work. let too many people in and noone can find common ground

I do find some Trans girls hot and if they enjoy looking and acting like a girl I guess I'd prefer they be girls then walk around unhappily as men.10 ReplyI support them. They're just people and it doesn't matter or effect me what their gender is.
60 ReplyI just see a person as i am one. I feel compassion for their struggles. I dont think they can help how they feel, they are just being who they feel they are, i dont see anything wrong with it. If i felt more like a male, then id naturally gravitate towards wanting to become one in any way i could, it's understandable, and should be.

+1 yDepends. Lets use a trans woman as an example. She says that since she used to be a man at birth, if she were to ever play sports, she would be in the male sports not women sports. If the transgender people are like that, I don't mind them. If they aren't I wouldn't like them that much and would call them by their birth pronouns.

+1 yTransgenders are extremely confused individuals. Before all this nonsense and sex changes in the health industry, people had to learn to live with what they were given and accept themselves for who they are, which is how it should always be. Transgenders are disgusting to most people I would say.

you are not thinking long term. they are very harmful ideas to say someone can identify however they want. It makes it so all truths are subjective and this opens the door to new and dangerous religious fanatics disguised as science taking over the mainstream. like critical race theory which is undeniably hurtful
if you let people believe fake things, they won't stop at one fake thing - +1 y
You can't just say what someone is thinking, when you know nothing of what they speak of. I never said I supported them, I don't care what they do because they are not me and I am not them. There are plenty of harmful ideas out there and there are plenty of people who reversed their transition. People are going to do what they want regardless of what others, like yourself, think.
At the end of the day, you have to ask yourself is what they're doing really hurting you. - +1 y
yes being trans is going to start a civil war and many people you know will end up in mass graves
democracy depends on compromise to work but what does compromise depend on to work? compromise depends on people being similar enough where we have common ground... if not we can't compromise.
if we can't compromise because we are too different we can't live peacefully with eachother for long.
even know trans are encouraging our kids to become trans, raping women in women's prisons, and stealing trophies from women in sports. but this is only the beginning. diversity always hurts - +1 y
I can only tell you how wrong you are by that way of thinking that you have. People have predicted civil wars taking place during Obama and nothing happened at all. There is reasonable distrust for the trans community, however every race and gender does face their own distrust from those opposite of them. You can't speak about a democracy or compromise when people just want to live their life. Nobody is telling you that you can't and the same goes for the trans people.
Now as far as the women's sports, the encouragement of children being trans, and the rape of women in prison, you have to realize the ones who's doing the damage, if you want to speak politically, are Democrats and the left. You take your fuss up to them because they allow that and those feminist or lgbtq+ advocates. Diverse as it may be, you and everybody else can see that this is part of a meritocracy.
I'm no longer going to digress. It is not going to cause a civil war. People just need to stand more firm on what they believe and stop giving in to pressure. - +1 y
"one civil war prediction was wrong so all of them are wrong" great reasoning. the sun rose yesteday and tomorrow, but someday it won't
we are taking it up with those people you named... everyone who agrees that gender is a real concept at all is the problem here

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yIt’s a trend and fad for bored people that need to follow a movement. The hormones they take for their transition can create issues for those around Trans folks and it’s becoming a bit out of hand the whole thing’ It’s a media gain as well for publicity for companies and business to stand out when advertising.

@CoolTeen Seeing things from a realistic point of view does not equal being hateful. Respect is earned, not given. If you and your rainbow community aren't trying to shove your ideologies down people's throats, then people wouldn't be against you. But even then, hate is not always the case. But by all means, continue playing victim and falsely frame people.

actually the 41% suicide rate among trans is NOT related to them being mistreated Even acceptance has little effect on the suicide rate of trans people and the suicide rate among people who are fully accepted is still over 41% queeramnesty.ch/.../...ms-Suicide-Report-Final.pdf
your suicide rate is due to you knowing deep down you're NOT A MAN
Opinion Owner+1 y@CoolTeen people like me? Wow attack and defensive much? Why is there a huge platform for straight folks to be expected and protested against to bow and respect other people’s preferences in how they chose to live’

+1 yI disagree with their axiomatic assertions about what constitutes "gender" and what constitutes a "transition". But I'm a humanist, so on a human level I say "live and let live", so long as they're not infringing on others or spreading misinformation or bullying others into "recognising" their trans status. If they don't mind my respectfully disagreeing with some of their claims, then I don't mind showing them common respect as I would for any other sane, friendly, law-abiding civilian.

it does affect us. men are being put into women's prisons, women are losing scholarships to men in sports and the very concept of science is being destroyed as the religion of gender replaces it
a genocide is coming because the objective truths that bind us together are being destroyed, we can't compromise or live with people who share no objective truths with us because there is no middle ground to compromise on
your live and let live attitude is ironically going to kill a lot of people

Asker+1 yI know.
It’s a mix hormones if they’re born with that it’s psychological problems if the government and the surrounding support them they tend to get worse. A lot of times they end up killing themselves.
I live in Thailand, lots of ladyboys here.
And they act like they’re girls. And they get upset that heterosexual men Aren’t interested in them.
And that alone causes them to go to deep depression. Because a lot of them in their own heads they think the real girls.00 Reply
+1 yI for don't understand it, at all. But I do respect their decision to do what is right for them. However, personally, I don't think minors should be given hormone blockers or anything like that to transition. They are too young, they barely know anything about themselves yet. What you do as an adult is up to you.

you shouldn't respect them at all. society only works if we have fundamental truths that are objective, if this stops being true civil war and genocide become inevitable because we diverge so greatly from one another that we can't live peacefully anymore
