I'm so fricking sick of hearing about JK Rowling, here is my rant.

Not really, there are still lots of sane s, just more focus on the insane minority by right wing religious groups, and other countries pushing propaganda to destabilize the country and because most people don't actually know a transgender person. I will agree that transgender people didn't police their own community and instead were ousted but real transgender people just kind of want to keep their heads down and aren't getting into the political activism. Most people will go their whole lives without running into a transgender person, so they kind of believe what they hear after hearing it over and over.

I'm not claiming that I am one of the sensible ones now, I was before you even knew transgender people even existed.

Maybe I'll hear less from TERFs when people stop believing right wing conspiracy blogspots as an actual news source and develop some critical thinking skills, both the right and the left need to learn this skill.

I don't think too many people that identify as Truscum that don't buy into the queer theory that it's completely a social identity believe that m2fs should be in womens sports, I think some kids do need treatment for HRT but caution should be used, and who fricking cares what bathroom I use? I try to go out of my way to use the gender neutral but there really should be more single stall gender neutral restrooms. I'm not trying to make people uncomfortable, but I'm not acting creepy in the restroom. I want to be in and out.

JK Rowling has the right to be against it. I don't care about her.

People walk on eggshells because they see right wing propaganda videos of people over reacting or treating gender identity disorder as a sort of fictional headcannon where you can play dress up with pronouns. Identify as whatever you want, it's not the same as having Gender Identity Disorder. The issue is, especially in college environments where people are immature and exposed to new ideas, people do over react, teens and young adults do explore around with their social identity.

I see nothing wrong with having a different social identity, but can we please take Queer theory out of Gender Identity Disorder and come to a consensus and fricking treat it as the medical condition it is.

I tell people that things were a lot easier to be trans in 2013, a decade ago than today. I passed worse, but people genuinely didn't care. Somehow self-identified Queers who didn't transition until recently are trying to tell me, who did that my experience is wrong and it's a lot easier to be trans today.

No it fricking wasn't, it wasn't a political issue or associated with "wokeness".

Where is the cope? And I don't need to dilate. I'm completely fine with my peepee.

My dysphoria is primarily based on my appearance and I've gotten to the point where I can look at myself in the mirror and think I'm hot. I'm even hit on by creeps which is an experience associated with being a woman, and although they are creeps a part of me feels good that I'm viewed as and considered to be attractive.

It seems like you are the one that is coping.

No, I'm criticizing TERFs in the same post and right wing conspiracy wingnuts in the comments.

I just know how to behave to gain acceptance. Completely alienating every cisgender person when transgender people make up 0.2% of the population is not how to go about it.

Right now, there is a backlash because people aren't behaving or coming off the right way. Things aren't that far along where we can expect society to completely accommodate to our every whim, if things go too far, there is a backlash.

Honestly, I'm just telling the truth. Nothing I've stated is in-factual.

You don't care about Ted_SIMP, yet you seethe when I spam the site with updates about her s*x life. Curious.

No.

It's not uninteresting, it just offended you, so you are trying to distance yourself from the fact that you got triggered because there is a that doesn't fit your propaganda sterotype and anything that challenges your world view makes you uncomfortable.

I would love a transgender groomercord with normal people.

The thing with JK Rowling is that didn't start off a TERF, she was attacked for questioning transgender ideology and it drove her into TERFism, she then catered to the TERF fanbase.

Because I grew up with a progressive upringing (Traditional progressive, not "progressive") then I really believe that people should have the right to question narratives and am really big on civil liberties. I didn't feel comfortable in the transgender community because I believe in a worldview based on rationality, and I believe that people should have the right to question views and be willing to change them when subjected to evidence that goes against their views. Questioning gender ideology is okay. Being neurodivergent and not fitting into a box, I don't believe in forcing people into a box, including a political box.

I criticize those on the right a lot, not because I don't believe that they have the right to question, but because they aren't questioning. Their views are often based on ignorance and they refuse to be willing to change them, even creating a hugbox by filtering out information that makes them question and makes them uncomfortable. I hate hugboxes, discourse should make people uncomfortable, and I'm not a fan of ignorance on either the right or left. There is a difference between discourse and spamming "You will never be a woman" over and over and over again. One involves a back and forth, the other is neurodivergent screeching to filter out discourse that makes you question your own views. There is very little difference between the chuds and wokies, both are easily triggered, need safe spaces, and try to censor views which make them question. I fricking hate censorship.

I now tell people I'm "more center", but honestly, I still identify as progressive to myself in terms of it's historical connotation, because I believe in a worldview based on rationality and evidence.

I definitely respect Daryl Davis, the black man who converted members of the KKK by befriending them and showing them tolerance, it's hard but I try to follow him as an example, because the best way to handle hatred is by viewing it as a result of ignorance, and with tolerance, which is my view about the paradox of intolerance. A lot of anti-transgender views and perspectives are from people who have never met a transgender person, and will never likely meet one in their life. Their experience of transgender people is from the internet. It's based on ignorance. If someone handles ignorance by screaming at someone instead of having a respectful discourse, then you're just going to shape their world view and alienate them entirely. I know I'm often sarcastic online, but I do get kind of annoyed by the political discourse and ignorance. In real life I'm respectful, polite and not argumentative, I think I just like debating. I like being exposed to new perspectives different than my own if they aren't completely r-slurred, and they have thought about them instead of following the herd and I look for my views to be changed, but the thing is that he challenged their views, but it did it with tolerance. He didn't adopt their world view, he befriended them and made them question.
