Hes whining that he got moderated for being transphobic

no you and others failed to understand my debate in this, and it's already reached shitfest levels.

if you all can't learn to not jump to conclusions then these topics shouldn't even be brought up.

It can be both.

You can't be genuine and disingenuous about something.

That poster didn't ask if it was disingenuous or genuine. He asked if it was politically orientated or genuine.

Youre not making any sense. Theres no reason to be this upset because I dont think we should stop allowing trans people to transition considering how many people have outright stated that transitioning is the only thing that saved their lives and allowed them to be fully functioning members of society.

and I didn't disagree with that, and as much I want to genuinely continue this conversation with you but I'm not getting moderated again.

?
What does that have to do with my post

Presumably because the whole "transgenderism is fake because of radical constructivism of gender" is a bunch of bollocks.

Your argument was that people shouldnt transition.

Would you like to have a conversation about that?

I think his argument was that trans people should just try not being trans

Just turn it off, like a light switch

Will you just complain that everyone else is wrong and, despite us being able to read your posts, youll accuse everyone of lying about what you said?

Because your stated argument was that people shouldnt transition.

Just stop.

Just stop.

Its so strange how you claim you want to discuss this but are absolutely incapable of discussing this like an adult.

This is rich coming from you. Ironic and rich

My thoughts are we should really teach everyone to be comfortable in their own skin. No one should feel so off that cutting themselves up for aesthetics is the solution.

Yeah, why havent they just tried being comfortable? It seems like such a simple and obvious solution.

Sad to see that just posting this bullshit article was enough for TC to get what he wanted here.

The only thing this shows is that young people shouldn't be pressured into transitioning if they exhibit gender dysphoria. It's a major decision, something that an adult should make who's absolutely sure about it.

There should be a law that prohibits it until the individual is 21. Way too life changing of a decision to be done without enough insight and experience.

lmao apparently wanting everyone to be comfortable in their own skins is anti trans. I absolutely am not anti trans.

Did you become aware of your gender when you turned 21?

There's no way to talk about it unless you just clap and say yay trans people and leave it at that. It's the most aggressively protected subject on the site, so your only option is to ignore threads about it. Anything and everything else is "anti trans" as far as the mods are concerned.

You are certainly revealing all the context.

Lot's of shills and boot lickers itt. The mods are completely biased and trigger happy. Everyone know's this.

If you don't follow the same exact political persuasion as them then good luck.

Trans people aren't a fucking political position to agree or disagree with. Replace trans people with any other people grouped by inherent characteristics in the sentence "I don't agree with ... " and realize how awful it sounds. It is disgusting that LGBT became a political hot topic just by existing outside of the closet. If you don't support them, then that's a you problem

"Be comfortable in your own skin" is just "Be yourself".

It's a non-statement that is neither prophetic nor motivating to anyone that is actually suffering mental anguish. Who they are is exactly their problem.

What are you talking about? I didn't say "be comfortable in your own skin" I said I wish we could teach that. Wanting everyone to be happy with themselves is not the same as telling everyone to be happy with what they have.

you won't get anywhere, the usual suspects will crawl out of the floorboards, act condescending as fuck, and then just try to set you up to be modded. Same shit every time.

Late to the party but these topics never change

You know there are people who will rebuke gender confirmation/transitioning and use these few as evidence to get rid of the whole thing. What is it, concern trolling? It's bs to anyone who actually understands that science, but transphobes aren't rational to begin with

Let's just clarify this, because it's worth fleshing out, given the topic.

When you say, you wish we could teach people to be comfortable in their own skin, it's because you don't think that SRS is the right direction, because you believe that these people aren't suffering from a condition where they really are their experienced gender, but rather some other type of psychiatric disorder?

To further clarify your question, when you say "people suffering from a condition" you were talking about the 0.005% of people who identify as trans who are diagnosed with GID, correct?

If that statistic is correct, you are misrepresenting what it means.

How so?

Also I just checked and it's slightly off. 0.005% of the population has GID, not that percent of trans people. So about 17,500 people in the US out of an estimated trans population of around 1.6 million, so closer to 0.13%
