Topic | How come people aren't allowed to attack cops in self defense |
hockeybub89 12/30/19 12:53:40 PM #16 | gamer167 posted... Because despite the small handful of Officers that you hear about on the news that abuse their power, the other 800,000 are actually doing the right thing and arresting criminals in compliance with regulations.Still doesn't change that the bad cops can shoot basically anything that scares them and yet other people are supposed to maintain cool heads and keep the cop calm. Logically, shouldn't cops be the ones not getting any benefit of the doubt?They're the trained professionals paid to deal with high stress scenarios. A cop could shoot your child by accident and you'd be jailed and probably shot if you punched the taste out of their mouth. --- |

hockeybub89 12/29/19 7:07:25 PM #30 | Scott_Farkus posted... What if someone broke into your home while you were sleeping? Would you call the cops? What about cops that lay down their lives to protect others? Did they give their life just because they were a bastard?I'm not going to respect everyone that does a job just because I might call on their services at some time. I don't respect any job. I respect individuals that may do a job if they aren't bastards or bastard defenders. A good cop that protects a bad cop would also be a bad cop. --- |

Topic | Should a trans person reveal they are trans before a date? |
hockeybub89 12/29/19 6:48:35 PM #318 | 2Privileged4U posted... It's not at all ridiculous to expect all PEOPLE to be honest about very basic information. Since when did the gender of the person you're dating become "personal information?"Their gender is not secret. Transgender is not a gender. It is perfectly normal and human for someone to not share their baggage with someone before they are comfortable with them. A trans woman is a woman. Whenever she becomes comfortable enough to share more information (now or later), it will either end the relationship or not just like any other potential dealbreaker/preference. Special treatment is expecting trans people to not handle privacy like every other person and instead tell you things on your schedule to save you a potential headache. My entire point has been how not special being trans is. Another person may or may not be attracted and information may be shared immediately or over time depending on the personality and experience of the trans person. Just like anyone else. 100% of people would vote that world peace would be ideal but that doesn't mean world peace is going to happen. 90% of people agreeing on an ideal does not automatically make it feasible. No one demands people share their other personal baggage in case of dealbreakers. Wouldn't it be ideal if a woman told a man she was mentally ill? Most men would probably not be attracted to mental illness if a stranger told them she had it. Is it common courtesy for those women to remove themselves from the pool? --- |

hockeybub89 12/29/19 6:32:46 PM #20 | More like LOLsi She says she doesn't care about political advantage, but then argues that Trump shouldn't be impeached because it is not politically advantageous for Democrats. We should impeach Trump and hold all politicians more accountable for their actions if we really want to do what's right rather than what's advantageous. --- |

hockeybub89 12/29/19 2:07:43 PM #305 | 2Privileged4U posted... Our attractions are natural. Physical, mental and emotional. If you're not attracted to somebody, you're not attracted. No mental gymnastics or guilt trips are going to change that. Look at the poll and process what that means.Point to where I called anyone a bigot for not dating trans women. I literally haven't even advocated for them to never divulge that informnation. I just disagree that they have to do it up front. Only certain personalities will be able to do that. 2Privileged4U posted... You spun the FUCK out that post and added your own bullshit. Who said anything about a life story? You exaggerate, stretch the truth and everything else that's dishonest. No wonder you're advocating for more deception. (I'm not saying being trans in ITSELF is deception. Clarification for the impaired)Not everyone is comfortable sharing personal information to complete strangers. It is ridiculous to demand that all trans people act a certain way. They won't always be comfortable confiding into everyone they meet. It makes perfect sense that one might not be comfortable telling someone they are trans before they trust them as friends or something more. --- |

hockeybub89 12/29/19 9:19:17 AM #288 | RickyTheBAWSE posted... giving people reasons to not trust you is not the way to start any sort of relationship, lolololol. platonic or otherwise. that's a dodged bullet for BOTH sides.So you don't trust anyone that doesn't give you their life story the first time you meet them? That kind of trust is earned. You have to unlock all the dialog options through leveling This kind of logic implies that the only reason someone would be slow to give information is because they are a deceitful liar. Everyone in the closet is deceitful. Everyone with some medical condition or repressed trauma is a lying asshole. You aren't allowed privacy and control of personal info if you want to interact with another human being. --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 7:46:54 PM #10 | MonkeyBones23 posted... Do you really not want sex, or have you just closed your mind to the idea because your fear of coming out/opening yourself up?I mean, I don't feel like I've ever really had a real urge tbh, but I'm not big on touching at all, so who knows what is really affecting what. I just know that I've always seen some guys and felt more than my typical anxiety; a bit of heart fluttering something more. That sounds so cheesy and clinical. My whole life has been a long buildup of courage to do things I should have addressed years earlier and this has been weighing on me now. I'm 30 years into my life and have never had any sort of romantic relationship. I need to at least test my limits. --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 5:27:20 PM #212 | Wewillrocku posted... what do you mean by this? pride (about who you are) has always been part of lgbt.They celebrate it because it has always been extremely difficult for people throughout history to come out. The community and its allies know it is still very hard out there for a lot of people to no longer feel shame. Many parts of the world are legislating against and sometimes even killing LGBT folk. They can face incredible difficulties from the friends and family that are supposed to love them, just for admitting they were born different. Again, all human beings are different. Just because some people can easily come forward doesn't mean all can. Past experiences shape us and some people need to feel safe with someone before they can tell them all. --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 5:22:33 PM #205 | 2Privileged4U posted... Please elaborate.I mean, there is no such thing as an unnatural person. "It's natural that people won't be attracted to trans people" is dehumanizing and tells on the type of person who would say it. It implies any attracted to a trans person is acting against nature. It shows ignorance about homosexuality as well since trans men or trans women can be gay, straight, or bi. It all just proves a bigger agenda than "People have dating preferences". --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 4:43:30 PM #157 | EffectAndCause posted... Like I said, its about giving the guy a choice and personal safety. Plus, again, if you get the vibe that the guy is someone youre hesitant to tell, thats a huge red flag that you shouldnt even be ON that date.But why does the responsibility have to be on the trans person? Why can't the cis guy also be mindful of safety and bad reactions? "There's far fewer trans people" is not a valid reason. I feel like it's unhealthy to think about worst case scenarios anyway. Will trans people feel comfortable existing if we teach them that need to tell everyone for their own personal safety? --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 4:36:44 PM #147 | BillORileyReid posted... Would you want to date a white supremacist?I feel like that situation is different as white supremacy is a pure choice rather than a legitimate birth condition. White supremacists also don't have a history of being oppressed by law and being disowned by their families and friends. They likely developed those beliefs because of the company they keep. But no matter what, what would be nice is not the same as the reality that not everyone is equally comfortable sharing things to people at the same point in relationships. And if future information ruins a once budding relationship, then oh well. You dated a Nazi. You win some, you lose some. Things happen. Your attempt to emotionally manipulate my stance does not change the fact that humans have many reasons why they might not share things before they feel comfortable. --- |

In any other situation, yes, they absolutely have the right to privacy.Ah so only certain trans people are allowed to seek human companionship. And everyone that doesn't unveil all potential dealbreakers to all potential companions at first blush is a deceitful asshole. All because asking your own questions is too much of a bother. You say you're arguing for courtesy when all you're doing is changing who is allowed to be "selfish". --- |

hockeybub89 12/28/19 4:04:07 PM #114 | EffectAndCause posted... Many men are not interested in dating trans women, its a widely known dealbreaker that should be disclosed before the date. Also known are the very dangerous consequences of NOT telling the wrong guy until afterward.So trans people aren't allowed privacy or diversity of personality because they need to be afraid that most people want nothing to do with them? Do your own homework. --- |
