i think its just people trying to be nice

Trans peopme are hurting healt of the nation.

Believing your sex is something it demonstrably isn't is a denial of reality and is a form of mental illness, yes.

Just like if someone believed they were a dog.

Some end up becoming too nice. But thats dependent on you.

Or a chair.

no, pretty sure its politicians that are hurting the nation. Like always

Like you know, a very forgiving parent.

ANd you get a spoiled child or a greatful one.

How does trans "hurt the health of the nation"? I'm not speaking of individuals, I'm speaking of the entire class.

Funnily enough trans people at least the vocal ones

Consider themselves a separate class.

because jewish plot...somehow

maybe the chemicals in the water that turn the frogs gay

That movement litterally casrates children.

Honestly, pragmatically they do "harm" the nation.

@Bookworm, what reality is being denied?

So we depend on society to make up for it.

@DrYuriMom their body. And their sex.

Carot

@Jasse, no one is castrating children. At least not in the US. Surgery is not an option until the age of consent.

If a guy is gonna permanently remove themselves from the potential gene pool. Someone else can be counted on to take the place.

I think trans is a mental illness, but bluntly ignoring it or discrediting it is not the solution to it. For those who are fully invested into it, I can support calling them by their selected gender. For those NPCs who are shovelling all this no-gender or multi-gender zhi ziggy bobado, fuck off.

Scientifically speaking, transgender individuals who've reasonably gone through the process to declare themselves and show they actually stand by their beliefs have had proper scientific studies done and a large variety of their physical attributes, especially brain chemistry, often support that they are genuinely trying to be more aligned with the opposite sex of their genes.

So while I still believe this is a disorder and it needs to be treated, I will respect them.

The same way I would respect someone with PTSD.

@GingaBomber , or there's sperm or egg feezing

Actually, while that hasnt happened yet, we have parents "encouraging" kids to come out

@DrYuriMom puberty blokers castrate children.

The entire thing behind the "deadnaming" B.S. for one. People claiming that their given name by their parents after birth should be made inaccessable is most bizzare.

No, ignoring mental illness is almost never a good idea.

Recognition and treatment is preferred.

And also cases of trans activists advocating for kids to undergo sex change surgery or using pills

@Jasse, puberty blockers are temporary. Just stop the drugs and BOOM, puberty happens

@Jasse you mean sterilize

@JustTom , I respect your perspective, sir. thank you.

Honestly to them, regardless of the term, you mean making their reproductive parts useless

Castration is literally chopping the balls off

don't really think its a good idea to giving much of anything to kids unless absolutely required to keep them from suffering major harm, but thats just me,

@Aktriaz no. Castrate.

and i'm one of those crazies who thinks we use too many meds on everyone

Eh just stick with the best word. Mutiliate.

It covers all the bases.

@DrYuriMom No, that's not how it works. I know this very clearly, one of my aunts decided to give her two sons those things, and... one of them is so fucked up in the head it's insane, and the other, while being a stable member of society in some ways, has very clearly missed puberty and never going to get it.
