@Wynsickle@Bellatrix_85@turnintoabat@legaltweetz We aren't talking about what people assume others are we are talking about what people objectively are. Just because someone assumes you're a woman doesn't mean you're a woman.
@fantomclaw@QuentinC42@legaltweetz@turnintoabat Most trans activists would be very upset with this assertion, pointing to the fact that "gender dysphoria" allegedly means one has to be caused mental distraught by their birth gender, concluding that this is not necessary for someone to be trans, simply self identification.
@legaltweetz "If I know I’m not changing any minds, what’s the point of spending my emotional labor on some internet stranger? They feel entitled to us and our faith.
Now if someone was genuinely curious & wanted to try to understand, I’d probably spend my labor to chat with that person."
@Wynsickle@Bellatrix_85@turnintoabat@Sweden_Bear@legaltweetz And appealing to differences in semantics between sex and gender is a red herring from the fact that trans activists also use the terms interchanably, even so far as to assert trans women are biologically female and that there are no biological difference between male and female.
@Wynsickle@Bellatrix_85@turnintoabat@Sweden_Bear@legaltweetz Okay I'll put it more concisely. There is no meaningful difference between sex and gender. Gender is simply a description of the phenotype of traits demonstrated by ones biological sex. You can't "change" your gender. And it's nonsensical to assert biological males can be women.
@fantomclaw@QuentinC42@legaltweetz@turnintoabat Why is it hilarious? Do you believe a degree is indicative of competence? I'd wager most social science graduates can't name a country in Asia.
@fantomclaw@QuentinC42@legaltweetz@turnintoabat By "give a degree to anyone" I was making a statement of no longer requiring competence, not commenting on one's ability purchase an arbitrary piece of paper.
@fantomclaw@QuentinC42@legaltweetz@turnintoabat "That statistic is very wrong regardless."
No it isn't. It means that of the sample of trans people surveyed, 41% said they had attempted suicide at least once.
And the number of completed suicides is 8x the rate of the general population.
@Plastic000000@legaltweetz@jk_rowling Who said I was a fan. I'm not a feminist and Harry Potter sucks.
Doesn't change the fact trans women are men and people asserting otherwise are delusional.
