@lorcanmurphy0@WhoDiscuss@BRATTYBARBl Regardless of your opinions on the matter, why are you devolving to personal insults like no one ever invited them to parties? Why not just keep it on topic and be nice?
@djpedantic@tardisgirl93 Exactly this. I will never understand people who claim to be in other people’s minds. People like the one you’re replying to are just horrible.
@randomstuffxzxz@LarnaDaWn I’d say what the victims are going through is besides the point. Yes it’s horrible for them but none of that changes that he made a mistake and has since made the effort to better himself.
@Hela19990@djpedantic@WhoDiscuss@GJungle1234@ZeeMachineMusic@basedandbougie@samsmith You’re getting two different things confused. Calling you objectively correct is a completely different thing to saying you are objectively correct. A name can be as inaccurate to the word’s meanings as it likes. Just like every woman called Charity isn’t actually a charity.
@LotWii@wakeuptotheleft@CrunchAlias I believe that each aspect of being transgender like you say should have its own set of rules. It’s unfortunate but for the best. However I was only talking about identity not any of those things here.
@AmeriMeTN@wakeuptotheleft@CrunchAlias It’s not a lie. They’re not asking you to say they’re biologically the other gender they’re just asking you to refer to them as the other gender. Also there’s no malicious intent and surely narcissistic control requires malicious intent?
@NatashaCL7 @protectchild70 If something is removed from the DSM then it is not a mental illness anymore. That's the point of the DSM. What you're saying is if you remove something from a room it's still in the room.
@KAS1A13@wakeuptotheleft@CrunchAlias I don’t think it eludes people, I think it just doesn’t matter as much as you think it does. People can be referred to as the opposite sex if that’s what they want, whether it’s biologically true or not.
@wakeuptotheleft@CrunchAlias So what if they don’t biologically? Doesn’t mean you can’t recognise them as the other gender if that’s what they would prefer.
@CrunchAlias A person who identifies as the opposite gender to the one they were born as. A disguise is something designed to hide a true identity. Seeing as Zelah was quite open about true identity it can’t be a disguise. It’s not okay to say something factually incorrect no.
@robjh44@myResult@emmerdale It might have changed yes but the watershed rules haven’t even been amended to reflect that as far as I’m aware, which is what my point is about.
