Many people understand that Trump voters are freaked out by transgender people. And are positive that they can ban it and “save” their children from that fate. I would even grant the notion that some kids are doing it to yank their parents’ chains. (And then ask yourself why those kids feel they need to use such a dramatic mechanism.). But some kids really are gender dysphoric and would give anything not to be. Most of us that support continued access to that care consider how we would feel it were our kid and we loved them very much. Apparently Elon doesn’t love his kid. |
“Care” is quite some dystopian doublespeak given the scientific evidence piling up globally about the harms of medicalized transition for children. |
i guess i just find it so odd that anyone would think anyone would fake this.
why if you are a man or a boy, would you want to dress and live as a woman or a girl unless you HAD to because to deny this about yourself was to open the door to significant depression, suicidal ideation and self harm. What possible benefit could it infer upon you? It is beyond hard. People discriminate against you at every step. They judge you. They jeer in the streets. Kids alienate you. You are self conscious every second you are out in public. You are told you are weird and gross and euw. WHY WOULD ANYONE DO THAT unless they had no choice? That's what liberals dont get about the republican argument. |
The misogyny of this post is horrific. I really hope you are a man writing this and not a self loathing woman. I love being a woman and in this country during the 21st century is an amazing experience. So take your “no one would voluntarily be a woman!” hate speech and kick rocks. Seriously eff off. |
These are things doing far more harm to America than transpeople. We need 47 emergency laws and executive orders attacking transpeople but get NOTHING on any of those other far more damaging things. Priorities in this country are pretty screwed up. |
For many, it’s a fetish. Why would someone wear diapers as an adult? It’s a fetish. |

Where is your reading comprehension? The PP is saying people are jeered and mocked for being transgender, not that everyday women are being made fun of on the street. |
You think "cross dressing" is the same as trans? It may be a part of the trans experience, but it is not the same. You do realize that Geraldine, Mrs. Doubtfire, and Tootsie were not "trans?" I bet most people on here never saw "Some Like it Hot" with Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis. Really funny, cute m movei that could never be made today. |
What’s amazing about this thread is how many trans rights supporters in this thread have unconsciously revealed their deep misogyny and for the women, their profound self-loathing. It is such an incredibly misogynist movement. |
It's a mental illness that thrives on narcissism and attention-seeking. You don't get it because you're (relatively) normal. |
Regardless of how the average DCUM feels about this issue, it’s a massive loser for the Dem party if they repeat level of support and attention that they have given this in the past.
You feel on solid ground surrounded by your fellow DCUM libs, but that sh*t doesn’t fly in the mid-west battle ground states where elections are decided, especially the men playing women’s sports issue. And saying “its just a few” isn’t going to cut it. Keep gaslighting, and keep losing. |
I don’t know why you think I’m supposed to care about a literal game over people’s existence being criminalized. Get a hold of yourself. |
You don’t have to care about sports if you don’t want to, but you have to be a girl to play on a girls team. |
Keep that head in the sand. And keep losing elections accordingly. |
Oh for Pete’s sake, cut the ridiculous drama. Nobody’s existence is being criminalized. You need to get ahold of yourself in a very significant way. |
