I saw them trying to pass laws that forced stuff like that.

I would see stories like "this state shot down gay marriage bill" only to see that the bill would forcr churches to do the wedding.

I fully respect the right of private individuals to discriminate. Churches too. Business *as long as* they don't get big government contracts or provide a basic service required for normal living in a place with few options (i.e. the only grocery store in a small town).

Those asshats in CO that demanded a wedding cake were just that, asshats

Those asshats that want to tell the Catholics to have women priests or the Mormons to marry gays are just that, asshats

Those asshats that want to fine people for calling me "he" *unless they are performing government work* are just that, asshats

And those people who want to tell lesbians that they have to accept a penis in their sex life are worse than asshats. They're evil.

All I ask is that the government operate in a neutral manner and that we have some criteria to permit intersex and truly dedicated trans willing to adapt their anatomy to be where they feel they belong with ID and public spaces.

lets not dismiss the merits of a penis in your life so quickly.

That said, if some lesbians want their pussy church and don't want me in it because I'm not a "woman born" then they can have fun in their little clubhouse

May I be frank?

Hello frank

I have personal beliefs that prevent me from totally agreeing with transgenderism but I generally respect pronouns and I do agree that transphobes are assholes.
But I also agree that bills forcing people to recognize pronouns are pretty shit.

:p

I want to be jack!

Let me rephrase that, may I be honest about something?

Go ahead! 😃

I think the best course for gay rights at the moment is to normalize it by not obsessing over it.

@Pendell, I don't totally "agree" with transgenderism either

:v

But aren't you trans

I wish people would stop drawing attention to every gay couple in reality and fiction.

It doesn't help anyone.

Same.
It does the opposite of normalizing it.

@Illyrian I'd say that's the best course for everything.

@taekahn By not obsessing over it?

Yes.

Like annoucing how many women and how many people of color got elected to the house

Just because I am trans and had to transition to find peace doesn't mean I find it "normal" or preferable

its like....STOP ALREADY

Life would have been a lot easier for me if I'd been happy as a dude

you're making it a thing by doing that

@DrYuriMom May I just view you as a woman?

Please

My wife does

My staff do

I can do that.

My colleages do

I'm sorry if that was a stupid question.

I never talk about being trans IRL

I'm generally for doing more research into the psychology of gender dysphoria so that maybe someday we could find some sort of psychotherapy that can help? Or some sort of psychological medication?
