But aren't you trans

2018-11-17 21:27:42 UTC  

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

2018-11-17 21:27:49 UTC  

It doesn't help anyone.

2018-11-17 21:27:58 UTC  

Same.
It does the opposite of normalizing it.

2018-11-17 21:28:03 UTC  

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

2018-11-17 21:28:22 UTC  

@taekahn By not obsessing over it?

2018-11-17 21:28:27 UTC  

Yes.

2018-11-17 21:28:44 UTC  

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

2018-11-17 21:28:45 UTC  

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

2018-11-17 21:29:00 UTC  

its like....STOP ALREADY

2018-11-17 21:29:01 UTC  

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

2018-11-17 21:29:06 UTC  

you're making it a thing by doing that

2018-11-17 21:29:21 UTC  

@DrYuriMom May I just view you as a woman?

2018-11-17 21:29:27 UTC  

Please

2018-11-17 21:29:32 UTC  

My wife does

2018-11-17 21:29:38 UTC  

My staff do

2018-11-17 21:29:40 UTC  

I can do that.

2018-11-17 21:29:51 UTC  

My colleages do

2018-11-17 21:30:01 UTC  

I'm sorry if that was a stupid question.

2018-11-17 21:30:04 UTC  

I never talk about being trans IRL

2018-11-17 21:30:05 UTC  

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?

2018-11-17 21:30:23 UTC  

It's certainly far away though

2018-11-17 21:30:37 UTC  

Speaking of gender dysphoria, may I ask a question in regards to that?

2018-11-17 21:30:41 UTC  

It's irrelevant but then again I am lucky enough to blend without any ripples at all

2018-11-17 21:30:51 UTC  

Go ahead

2018-11-17 21:30:56 UTC  

For now I recognize there isn't much else that can be done so I do my best to respect transitioned individuals

2018-11-17 21:31:16 UTC  

Gender dysphoria is the condition that necessitates sex-change surgery, correct?

2018-11-17 21:31:25 UTC  

In many people, yes

2018-11-17 21:31:46 UTC  

Which would mean that transpeople, before undergoing the surgery, would have gender dysphoria, correct?

2018-11-17 21:32:04 UTC  

Before, yes. Afterwards, hopefully no more.

2018-11-17 21:32:32 UTC  

Therefore, it is not transphobic to point out the existence of gender dysphoria, correct?

2018-11-17 21:33:10 UTC  

I'm not gender dysphoric anymore except when I feel threatened by laws that could place me in danger - mens bathrooms or jail cells with guys. Stuff like that. Or ID that doesn't match my obvious appearance and anatomy.

2018-11-17 21:33:33 UTC  

I wasn't saying you did.

2018-11-17 21:33:37 UTC  

I'm a scientist

2018-11-17 21:33:42 UTC  

Got it.

2018-11-17 21:33:49 UTC  

I'm a history major.

2018-11-17 21:33:50 UTC  

You need to be able to articulate about something

2018-11-17 21:34:00 UTC  

That's why I am so uncomfortable with PC

2018-11-17 21:34:20 UTC  

@Malt_Hitman there are countries where homosexuality is illegal and punished with a death sentence, they even lob all other forms of “deviant behavior” into the category that get death.
If you fall in one the deviant categories, just hope your plane doesn’t have to do a controlled emergency landing. This will require you to show them your passport.

2018-11-17 21:34:21 UTC  

How can we deliberate about something if we cannot utter the words associated with it

2018-11-17 21:34:33 UTC  

Precisely.
