Here's the thing. You said a "trilby is a fedora."

I am a bot. (Info / Contact)

The fact that I'm an Eagle Scout turned /r/drama poster pretty much proves that the program is a failure tbh

It's about as effective as D.A.R.E. one of the only Eagle Scouts I know just got arrested for dealing coke. Hopefully knot tying and tent making are useful skills in jail.

Eagle Scout reporting in, lets burn something down!

As an Eagle Scout I already have the tinder and lighter ready as I am always prepared.

And I have a gas can so we're good to go!

If we need any of those fire starters made of wax and dryer lint, I gotchu

When I was in scouts most of our Adult leaders had served in Vietnam/Korea/WW2. So we learned all sorts of things that we probably shouldn't know.

Ex. Homemade slow burning fuses - Dissolve fertilizer (ammonium nitrate) in hot water. Dip cotton string into water, hang up to dry. Cut into useful lengths. Uses include replacement fuses in fireworks, safely ignite explosive liquids, make smoke bombs!

Shit I never made it past Star so honestly I consider posting here a success.

Are you kidding? It's the best kiddie diddling service since the Catholic Church!

Ayy same.

I read that as "Pogrom"

tbqh the only reason these people don't like trans women is because they imagine that they are all blue hair SJWs who write D.VA fanfiction and call everything "problematic"

I can see why some people are disgusted tbh but you have to acknowledge that it's not a great emotion to feel about anyone, especially when you know literally nothing about them.

All the best trans-people are degenerates like /r/drama posters.

your flair is problematic tbphwyf

Or perhaps the reason is because they're degenerates?

What's wrong with D.VA?+

EL OH EL

You can think gender and sex are the same thing without hating everyone who thinks chromosomes count for nothing. I see transitioning as a bad response to a psychological problem, and the post-transition suicide rates seem to agree. You, like most people, probably think that alcoholism or depression or anorexia should be treated, not given into. Does that mean you hate everyone with those issues? If not, then why does having the same view of gender dysphoria make you a hateful bigot?

Because it is literally 2017 you shitlord. 11 year old transsexuals and late term abortion aren't a problem; ok? Can't wait until you Drumpftards get sent to the gas chambers.

the post-transition suicide rates seem to agree.

The absolute, overwhelming majority of studies clearly show vastly improved life satisfaction post-transition.

I know they have dicks. That is pretty disgusting.

I'm still pretty skeptical of trans people at that age. When I was 7 or whatever I thought I was going to be a rock star policeman, I definitely shouldn't have been able to make decisions about my future that young.

I completely agree. You wouldn't let your 13yo get a face tattoo, but you'll let them start hormone treatment?

But you don't do hormone treatment as a child! You can do that when you turn 18. You can get blockers which are way different, and if taken off of them you'll go through puberty like normal

While that's pretty much true with estrogen blockers (although there have been very few studies with pre-pubescent females), but it's not true for testosterone blockers since development of the testes is halted. Most youths will need to go through a lot of HCG therapy in order to regain testicular function and may need TRT for many years afterwards.

That's interesting. How do they treat precious puberty in boys? I always assumed they used the same stuff.

I don't know what "precious puberty" is, but there are a few different T-Blockers out there that they use. MTF and FTM transition are completely opposite. For MTF they are blocking Testosterone and for FTM they are blocking Estrogen and Progesterone.

Lol I meant precocious or early onset puberty (thanks autocorrect) which is also treated by t-blockers. But googling it now, it seems that the doctors usually stop the treatment when the kid is 11-12 yo so the exposure to them would be shorter.

Autocorrect is my nemesis.

like normal

Does not everyone go through puberty? I know everyone around me did when we were in middle school once upon a time!

Except for the ones whose parents drug them into being weird eunuchs, which is totes normal.

Fuck! I thought I could fly. But you didn't see them shrinks (and I had those) and doctors trying to tell me it's natural.

Don't let your dreams be memes. Go for it.

Oh I flew. It took a while and whole 'nother reality, but I fly.

You can fly if you believe. You can even rain hellfires and .50 cals on brown skinned peasants as hover over burning oil wells if you try. It is 2017 my friend. Embrace it. Apologies if you identify as fighter-kin.

Why the fuck are people trying to make their kids transition at that age?

Because if they do they'll definitely win the "Most Progressive Parent" award

They just take blockers til they're older. No harm no foul

You know those blockers are chemotherapy drugs, right?

And who ever had side effects from chemo?

Chemo patients wear wigs

Trans women wear wigs

Thus, transexualism is cancer

Definitely not Steve Jobs

I didn't know that but I'm guessing that the amount of transgender people is so low it wouldn't be a huge strain on resources

It's not that it's a strain on resources, it's a strain on the kids' bodies. There are definitely consequences if people grow up and decide they are not actually trans.

Osteoporosis looks to be the biggie. Impotence too if they go back to being a guy.

How often does that happen?

Also how's your trap sub

They are very moody and naughty

Hit him for me please

Did you just assume their gender?

Trap, so yes

Big Pharma wins again.

Virtue signalling. Also mental illness.

girls are better than boys. Boys are loud and obnoxious while girls are quiet and obedient

I'll just say it: women do NOT have penises. That is like a basic premise of the whole mammal thing.

Mammals are a social construct.
