Topic	People who refuse to acknowledge trans people as their preferred identity
Wetterdew 12/11/18 10:54:11 PM #44:	_Squirtle_ posted... Wetterdew posted... Kind of like how adoptive parents are claiming they're parents, which you think they're not? Of course they are. But if they started to claim they're biological parents when they're adoptive parents, they're wrong. And trans people are still people. But if they start claiming they're the opposite gender...they're wrong. To me it seems very arbitrary to refuse to grant trans people the title of their preferred gender while simultaneously granting adoptive parents the title of parents despite that they aren't biologically parents. Like I know trans men aren't biologically men. But we can recognize them as male because it is ultimately a social grace that is for the best, just like we recognize adoptive parents as parents even though they aren't biological. --- Touch fuzzy get dizzy. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:913977499] in People who...
