Gee someone calling a detransitioner, a "fake detransitioner" and attacking a person thats been psychologically indoctrinated by a cult because they are disillusioned and questioning their gender.
Not picking and choosing anything. Wanna have a debate? Fine. But attempting to do so by spreading lies and a false narrative you near from right wing circles and being downright transphobic isn’t the way to do it. The trans community that I’m a part of already faces enough hate so yeah, I will call out the BS when I see it. I thinks what your lot doesn’t like. You wanna be the loudest voice in the room spewing lies and hateful rhetoric without being challenged. I will expose the bigotry and the larger part of society is accepting. You all are the minority. We’re here to stay.
So you totally missed the point. Not surprised. You disagree with people’s choices about how they live their lives, that’s on you. Wanna express that you can do that too. But doing so by spreading lies and misinformation in the most inflammatory way possible using hateful and bigoted rhetoric should and will be called out. That’s the point. You can’t say whatever you want as ugly as possible and cry when you get the backlash. Can’t have it both ways. That’s what really upsets you people. Getting called out for your crap.
Thank you! Finally, a reasoned post from someone with actual experience around the issue.
A friend of mine saw a Hispanic biological male in therapy who identified as a transgender female. Through a bunch of therapy she figured out that his family was VERY Mexican (I'm Mexican, so I know what that means). He liked men, but in his family environment, being gay was NOT possible. In his mind, the only way he could like men would be if he was a woman. When my friend presented this to her supervisor (because we weren't licensed yet), she got a stern talking to. She was told, very clearly, that she needs to affirm her patient's identity as a female and that was the ONLY option. She was told to stop asking questions.
These people did the same to gay children. This isn't a new trend. The rise in trans is because they now have heroes and feel more comfortable coming out.
Indeed. It’s good to see them being strengthened and being able to express themselves without shame knowing that they’ve got people to look up to that inspire them to be who they want to be. Freedom of expression is one of the most important things in life. Not being able to define who you are is a crime against humanity.
What's weird is, the people who claim that parents are forcing their kids to be trans are the ones indoctrinating their kids with religion and their right wing politics.
Indeed. Double standards right there. I agree 100%
Wow looks like you’re another one who doesn’t comprehend what you even say. You know you contradicted yourself don’t you? Oh wait, of course you don’t. No you don’t have to recognize me as a fellow woman. But yea, I am gonna say it’s transphobic. Because it is disrespectful. Like when I worked with a FTM transgender kid and a coworker kept referring to him as she. And yea, you have every right to be a bigot, a transphobe or anything else you wanna aspire to be. Just like I have every right to call you all out for it. That’s what you really don’t like. Being called out. What is surprising to me not gonna lie is how someone who is part of such a marginalized community like the LGTBQ community can be so disrespectful to someone who is also part of that community.
And they call the the progressive states that are Blue, that generate tge most money and production "sh*tholes" because they're democratically run. Kinda like how they'll bash colleges saying they're liberal bs..now they call it Communist camps. They also trust some YT streamer with a bunch of jars of GFUEL and Funko Pops behind them over educated professionals. It's truly mind numbing idiocy.Notice how all the progressive and liberal countries such as Germany and the Netherlands are in the top 10 when it comes to Human Development? Progressivism leads to development and equal wealth distribution, which in turn leads leads to more wealth, reactionary conservatism leads to stagnation and internal strife caused by social and economic inequality. That’s why US states like New York or Massachusetts are more developed than, let’s say, Alabama or Mississippi.
It’s called strength through diversity and being an open access society.
I'll add another thing my ****** edgewood, the statistics come from them being bullied, not because they regret gender affirming care. Suicides among tge gay community were just as high during the 90s then dropped drastically once gay people were not only accepted but protected.
Bullying may be part of the equation but there is certainly more to it, because even today in the most socially accepting period in all of history, the suicide rate among gays is higher than it is for straight people
