White, Straight Men Should start DATING us QT TransGirls, And Use Their Inferior WHITE MALE PENISES to Stimulate Our Feminine Prostates. #BlackLivesMatter

I physically cringed when the episode on gender came up and he started off with "the science of feelings"

i like how you started off by saying "this won't be a personal attack i promise" and then you transitioned into implying that being trans is a delusion

good job buddy

think about your thought process behind saying this. what could you possibly stand to gain by making such a truly worthless post?

excellent reading comprehension but i don't quite think you're quite ready for that big-boy leap up to fourth grade

I mean I totally respect trans people, you can do whatever you want, but until there is solid scientific evidence backing the legitimacy of transgenderism you can't expect everyone to believe in it or support it.

It's my honest opinion on the subject, it's not supposed to be a personal attack but there's obviously no nice way to say it, but the truth can't always be nice or pleasant to hear.

my opinion
the truth

yeah I worded that poorly but that's obviously not what I meant

I found this article on transgenderism pretty interesting, give it a read if ur wondering about the "science" of transgenderism and sexuality
http://sitn.hms.harvard.edu/flash/2016/gender-lines-science-transgender-identity/

what are you talking about transgenderism is recognized by doctors everywhere as being a real thing

as for the scientific side there are many different theories as to what causes it. One of the leading ones is an overexposure to the opposite sex hormones in the womb during gestation, you can do a quick google search if you wanna see that

No research has ever supported the idea that your brain and body can have different genders.

Show me 1 published paper.

This insanity is already on its way out

Gender dysphoria is a real thing for sure, but this pop culture idea of taking drugs or having surgery and pretending to be of the opposite sex as a solution to that condition has not proven helpful for sufferers and is completely divorced from science.

yes scream at them for being delusional and force them to live as a man instead
i am the scientist

this is the same rhetoric that people used in the 60s and 70s to shit on gay people

good lord you people are actually crazy

The phenomena is recognized but there isn't really any solid evidence proving its legitimacy more than just a choice. as you literally just stated, and shown in the above Harvard article, hard scientific evidence is nowhere near being found That proves it to be legitimate or linked to biology. Sure there may be some theories or slight correlations, but until there is a consensus by the scientific community I, like many others, chose to stay on the fence about it, or not recognize it.

Are you really going to tell me that sexual attraction is the same as believing that you were born with the wrong pair of genitals? I remind you that the burden of proof lies with those who make the claim, and for basically all of time the standard consensus is that there are 2 genders and you can't switch between them. You go off and proclaim that transgenderism is real and scientifically accurate, and once someone asks for scientific evidence you then compare it to a completely unrelated subject.

who cares

this thread is full of bait and i'm not wasting any more time arguing with retards

bye

Real mature.

sincerely, a well-adjusted and not at all delusional person

someone being bad at arguing on the internet doesn't really tell you anything about transgederism

My political idol is Pim Fortuyn, his assassination in 2002 shocked me and most of the lowlands, here was an charismatic openly gay catholic person bringing up issues on the table, we still wrestle with more ferociously and polarizing than ever,
His death came weeks before an election in which he got demonized by a lot of the media for his viewpoints,
When asked by the Dutch newspaper Volkskrant whether he hated Islam, he replied:

" I don't hate Islam. I consider it a backward culture. I have travelled much in the world. And wherever Islam rules, it's just terrible. All the hypocrisy. It's a bit like those old Reformed Protestants. The Reformed lie all the time. And why is that? Because they have standards and values that are so high that you can't humanly maintain them. You also see that in that Muslim culture. Then look at the Netherlands. In what country could an electoral leader of such a large movement as mine be openly homosexual? How wonderful that that's possible. That's something that one can be proud of. And I'd like to keep it that way, thank you very much."

During the 2002 campaign, Fortuyn was accused of being on the "extreme right", although others saw only certain similarities. While he employed anti-immigration rhetoric, he was neither a radical nationalist nor a defender of traditional authoritarian values. On the contrary, Fortuyn wanted to protect the socio-culturally liberal values of the Netherlands, women's rights and sexual minorities (he was openly homosexual himself), from the "backward" Islamic culture.[ He held liberal views favouring the drug policy of the Netherlands, same-sex marriage, euthanasia, and related positions.

The Dutch gave 2 million votes to a dead homosexual. Why, because he stood for what most Dutch people see as the two most precious parts of their culture, rationality and tolerance

And nowadays ever since a decade or so, sexual identity being so pushed at the forefront in the media in a way that sexual tolerance is now getting associated with "lady gaga rubbing a giant floated dick while surrounded by 8 ye old transgirls singing that all will be paradise when genders stop existing"

you're probably gonna dismiss this because le reddit, but in points 5 and 6 you'll be happy to find sources to studies that actually do prove that "transgender identities appear to be a genuine mismatch between primary sexual characteristics and neurological phenotypes"
along with a lot of other ideas supporting transgenderism
https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender/comments/3rws5s/comprehensive_defense_against_antitrans_talking/

i too, am autistic

it's gonna be dismissed because it's misleading garbage just like any other argument for pretending to be something youre not

also whoever said that transgenderism is a mental illness due to suicide rates needs to snap back from the 19th century
the reason why you would perceive that transgender folk have a very high suicidal rate is because trans folk are constantly facing an extreme amount of discrimination, be it before transitioning or not, regardless if they come out as trans or keep it to themselves
Here is a study that demonstrates how suicide risk for trans people can be reduced via HRT.
Here's a similar article.
And another, and another, here's another one with a heavier focus on sex reassignment surgery, this one talks about how quality of life has shown improvements within postHRT trans folk, along with this one.

Just dropping this by while this thread is still unlocked. Just don't go around spouting transphobic shit because of your previous assumptions or biases
