If we can all agree to call Robert Prevost by his new chosen name of Leo XIV then we can all call trans people by their chosen names. It’s not hard.
so much of modern liberalism is propped up by the most logically unsound arguments ever.
but they act like the smart ones with all the answers. always talking about "we're on the right side of history"
hmm yeah, easy to claim when you just never talk about the times you weren't...
fat people act like the healthcare system oppresses them, but the reality is that the rest of us are paying for their extra tests, extra diagnoses, extra problems as a result of their being obese or overweight.
lose some weight the lot of you, and maybe all our premiums will go down.
Imagine telling disabled children they're born in the wrong body or born the wrong way. Imagine telling autistic children they're born wrong. You wouldn't. But gnc kids? Yes those kids are born in the wrong body, let's stunt their growth and mutilate their bodies before they've even reached adulthood or before their brains have had the chance to mature yet, just because they didn't like sexist stereotypes. It's like a punishment. Punishment for not falling in line and obeying the patriarchal gender roles. You either conform or go through the meatgrinder and conform to the other mold. I cannot view it as anything other than that, a punishment.
one thing i would disagree with guy no. 1 on is that the trans community absolutely does use that language. obvs not every person but a vast majority especially online
the thing that made me see the light re. gender ideology/trans rights movement was the whole “a woman is anyone who says they’re a woman” thing
because it doesn’t make sense. there’s no universe in which is makes sense. youre not asked to just not define something in any other arena but this issue. i just imagined if we were asked to view other things in the world this way. it’s crazy. things have to have definitions.
but these people do have a definition, even if they won’t say it. they think a woman is just someone who wears skirts and makeup. that’s why they think a woman is anyone who wants to be one. 5 year olds have a better understanding of reality.
it’s all just good old fashioned misogyny. by this logic, if a woman doesn’t wear makeup or present super feminine does that make them a man? you ask questions and all of a sudden it’s [insert sputtering TRA word salad here]
it really is just a worship of the binary. masquerading as something revolutionary. and people are frothing at the mouth to defend it. acting like it’s a human rights issue. the biggest fucking con ever.
the valedictorian of my high school class is now a doctor and she posts TRA stuff on her instagram all the time. scary shit
im starting this blog as a safe space for my own refuting of gender ideology and other extremely tumblr/popular liberal-lefty ways of thinking that i dont agree with anymore now
doesnt mean im a conversative. doesnt mean im some frothing at the mouth ideologue. just want some common sense brought back.
i don’t not believe that the suicidal ideation is real but it needs to be intervened with in the way you’d intervene if it was rooted in any other mental health issue, not, ‘we’re going to freeze your puberty for awhile then give you alternate hormones’
