All that, and no definition of female and male.Do you really know what they are? Are you able to tell them apart?
Just to note: i disagree with some of the things pushed for by the recently empowered trans community, but for me its a matter of discussion rather than condemnation and frothy mouth vitrol i repeat from some dark corner of the web. Instead i try to work for solutions that accomodate all parties if they're willing to talk. Bottom line is people deserve to live their lives with dignity and not be pilloried for existing.
you mean like the circular argument that the progressives use to try and defend their delusions of facts/reality?
go watch the zealots try when asked to define woman, plenty of examples on the internet, Walsh's project of it
Female
of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) that can be fertilized by male gametes
Male
of or denoting the sex that produces small, typically motile gametes, especially spermatozoa, with which a female may be fertilized or inseminated to produce offspring
bottomline
human beings can't change their gender
cosmetic surgery, pumping drugs, isn't changing gender, it's cosmetic
intersexed people, tiny tiny % yes, have identity issues, deserve to be protected
people with mental/emotional issues deserve therapy, not the ability to force their issues on others for power/political reasons
specially when they're involving children who don't have the emotional or intellectual ability to fully understand the subject, long term consequences
for all the zealots out there on the trans issue
why aren't they fighting to have the legal age put back at 12?
cause certainly if a child can understand the concept of "changing" their gender according to them, they must be able to comprehend having sex with adults too
and must be free to choose how they live
just like why not Adult Baby story hour? domination? every other fetish story hour?
why only drag story hour? Huh?
don't those others deserve?
facts matter, science matters
you don't get to pick and choose your facts, reality
no definition
where's the link to Science Journal?
Regardless of what you “believe” about gender, why not just mind your own business if you don’t fully understand something? I’m beyond grateful I’ve always loved my gender and all my body parts. How horrible it would be to have your outsides not match your insides.
I have a few trans friends who are completely passing. Before the transition, you just knew they were in the wrong gender. It’s a complicated issue that some people here are trying to force into neat tiny boxes. The world needs more compassion.
Drag queen story time is not sexual at all and is a fun time. It’s just makeup and clothes and has absolutely nothing to do with trans folks.
To tie this into American politics, I feel so sad for all the people that don’t fit into tidy little boxes once Trump gets in. I feel sad for their health system and for their education system. Hopefully Trump doesn’t destroy things as badly as I think he might.

Until the USA makes us the 51st state like Trump keeps joking. It’s all so entertaining! Like a bad train wreck you just can’t stop watching!
Not so much his motor skills but his low IQ. He can read people's wishes as a well trained scammer though 🫤
Blessed with an arcane electoral college system. Otherwise he's toast.
Same. I know that makes me weird among those who would love see Trump finally choke on his own ego, but the US intelligence community has a lot of warmongering and assorted villany to answer for around the world. It used to be a mark of distinction among Dems to actually stand up against the imperial warmongering and intelligence agencies stepping on democracy even at home - but they gave up & sold out to Wall Street and the Military-Industrial Complex. Hillary Clinton was always that sort and she dragged their party to where she was on that issue; what happened to her in 2016 just made most of the other Dems go nuts wanting revenge on it, so for those dissenting & idealistic Dems like Gabbard, or Bernie Sanders, they became either alienated or exiled from the party they originally joined.
As for the GOP, I think the irony is that Hilldog was 100% on board with with a Bush era GOP foreign policy, and was the most Republican-like Democrat candidate in 50 years. However, the GOP just personally hated her from the 1990's onwards, and the MAGA ones anyway just became reflexively against whatever she was for. (If you ask them today, they admit no recollection over how anti-Russia and pro-NATO their party was even just 10 years ago!) I do not think the GOP are so far from their old warmongering "might makes right" selves; they only act that way with Trump around and when it comes to things like Gaza or whatever, they are still eager for policies of mass murder and legitimizing nation-level armed robbery - along with all the dirty tricks the "three letter agencies" can do to support it. So if Tulsi Gabbard is sincere about still being a foreign policy dissenter, she may be in for some heavy disappointment.

I was invited to a get-together at a friend's house whom I hadn't visited in quite some time. We played a an interesting table top game, and one of the players sat to the left of me was an athletic lady who I was sure I had met before but it was confusing because I was sure that I didn't know anyone with her name as it was fairly unique in my experience. Anyway, after the game and everyone else had left I was talking with my friend, the host, and voiced my certainty that I knew her from somewhere but couldn't figure out where. He gave me a look, laughed and said that a young man whom I knew had transitioned and was now a woman with a new name.
The thing that struck me was how comfortable she was interacting with everyone. The young man that I knew before was horribly awkward, had self esteem issues and was definitely unhappy.
I don't know if the transition was what changed her and made her into the happy person she is now, but in my opinion anything that makes someone comfortable with themselves and able to be happy and functional is a good thing.
Her decision doesn't affect me and I see nothing wrong with anyone choosing to be what makes them comfortable in their own bodies. It baffles me that anyone thinks that they are entitled to an opinion about how others choose to identify themselves. That's like saying it should be the governments choice if I can be circumcised, or get a vasectomy. My body - My choice. Empathy is a virtue in rare supply these days.
Do you think she would be turn into a predator if she would be over a partition wall in another stall in a public bathroom having a pee ??? 🤣
Unless it would be her Democrat allegiance (or liberal if in Canada) that would make her a danger to the other ladies...maybe ?🤔😉
Shes the one who went to visit Assad when he was accused of gassing Syrians right? She seems to have some power-thirst and a bit of baggage. Shes also close with the BJP of India which is another totalitarian group.
looks like some of the converted aren't understanding the message.
