Also I have no idea how you thought your statement was applicable to that post. That post isn't saying that at all. That post is discussing the concept of AMAB/AFAB.


Actually Aspirin did say that people ought to accept that someone was lying to their face. And I was explaining it in a way they'd understand, if you'd bothered to read several of their posts.

The greater problem I'm seeing is the continued reinforcement of "it's okay to consider trans people as the one who has done wrong when they 'trick' you". It basically establishes harmful attitudes like violence against trans people as valid simply because "a lot of people don't want to date trans people".

No matter what wording you want to use, someone who is trans that doesn't disclose it is willingly withholding information from the other party in a malicious way. Even if you want to say "trick" is contentious because they are the gender they represent themselves as, as compared to a crossdresser in the same situation who is misrepresenting their gender identity, that doesn't make it any less scummy because the point of contention is the biology and not the gender identity. I'd assume most transpeople aren't scummy enough to do that, but it's still a discussion to have nonetheless.

Did i say that violence was ever right? Or did I say that being dishonest to a person who doesn't swing that way was wrong? I said if they end up with a heart wrenching break up that's their fault. You sure love to put words in people's mouths. I said they should be honest with their partners and date within circles that aren't likely to have homophobic assholes in them.

Unfortunately homophobic assholes exist, just like racist assholes exist.

Yeah that's a huge problem as well

Kind of insane how much media has put the fear of being tricked by a woman with a penis into people's minds. The odds of a situation happening where you bring a woman home and find out she's pre op after getting into it are so astronomically low I'd say it's a statistical impossibility, but the frequency of these discussions would have you believe it's happening all the time

They are knowingly withholding critical knowledge that could potentially vastly change the parameters of the encounter. Putting the onus on the other party in this situation is stupid when the one with all the knowledge holds all the cards. The problem with this whole framework is acting like accepting that tran people are their identified gender means they categorically fit into all the same boxes as cis people despite their underlying biology still being relevant in many aspects. The discussion of crossdressers in the same situation is completely relevant because the only difference (aside from hormones and surgery) is that one identifies as their perceived gender and the other doesn't.

Is this implying that the other of the two people in this scenario is a completely open book and reveals everything about themselves? No cards held?

No one's really doing that here. You're making assumptions to fit your narrative.

The discussion of crossdressers in the same situation is completely relevant because the only difference (aside from hormones and surgery) is that one identifies as their perceived gender and the other doesn't.
Please don't say "sole difference" and then provide multiple extenuating differences. These aren't as unimportant as you seem to want to treat them. And that's why you should remove cross-dressers from the discussion.

Cyric's argument consists of vaguely accusing people of stuff but when confronted, backing away and saying he didn't say it, so thus he's exonerated in what he says.

Every topic he posts in is the same unless it's a conversation he actually has an opinion on(so, basically, Yakuza).

Those changes don't matter when the underlying issue of all this has to do with the biological sexual characteristics of the person. For some people, outward presentation is all that matters, but that's not the case for everyone else. This whole thing seems to stem from people who have no preference not understanding why other people do have that preference.

It's his way of not getting modded. Cyric's smart about it. He's implying things, not outright saying them, so he's trying to lead you into the implication of said thing without him actually needing to say it. But since he's not saying it, he can keep himself free from claims of actually saying you're...whatever he's implying(depends on topic).

So he never really has to back up anything he says and you can't really say he's accusing you of anything. It's also why he asks loaded questions, or asks questions that he will immediately act as if don't matter. Because then the onus is on you, and if he doesn't like it, that wasn't his point anyway.

Basically, arguing with him will last 500 posts because he'll never actually say anything important.

Oh, and if he says something unapologetically fucked up? Yeah, that's on you. Like the time he brought up someone's dead girlfriend because...you know, they were egging him on despite Cyric being the one to bring it up.

So tread carefully if you argue with him and you think he might know of something that could possibly hurt you. You might 'make him' bring it up.

Male biology, simple as that. Gender affirming surgeries and treatments are just that, surgeries and treatments. If that is enough for someone to be sexually interested, that's fine and their sexuality shouldn't be mocked or criticized for that. In the same way, nobody should be criticized if that is not enough to be sexually interested. It's a different story if someone would be interested but is only hung up on ideas like it "being straight" or "being gay" or whatnot because of societal biases, but that's obviously not going to be a high percentage of people.

Male biology, simple as that. That is literally it. It's not a matter of surface level-appearance or attraction to that appearance. If you want to posit the idea that some percentage of people may be unfairly dismissing trans people due to their preconceived notions, that's a perfectly valid area of discussion. Anything beyond that, you're just being preachy because you cannot even conceptualize the idea for some reason.

Since I am just sitting on this train, I've been using this time to review that Lindsay Ellis video I posted, and...

Ace Ventura
Naked Gun
Family Guy
The Hangover
Dude Where's My Car
South Park

All with examples of trans revelation as being vomit inducing.

Is it any wonder we have a whole generation of cis men who can't put words to their internal issues with regards to trans women conceptually.

Incidentally, the chapter of that video where she goes over all those examples is called "Two Decades of Puking".

EDIT: Case in point of people not being able to put words behind it, our good friend Nemu here answering my question about what elements of male biology with "male biology".

The thing about that is that in many cases, you could fuck a post op person and not tell a difference

If the knowledge of it is the only issue, then to me it seems if someone is passable in every conceivable way then divulging that info is unnecessary since they're functionally identical to a cis woman

It doesnt matter how you try to justify it, its still not the same. They still have a biologically male
body, or theyre penis-afflicted if you want to use alternate terminology. I dont understand why its so particularly hard to be able to accept that a trans woman is a woman while also understanding that the characteristic of her being trans means there are certain innate characteristics that will influence every part of life, dating and sexual relations especially. The only gray area here is that some people might be comfortable with it but might be dismissing it out of hand because of their preconceived notions. Other people, it simply does not mesh with them and will never mesh with them, and that should be just as acceptable.
