I live in a shoe

@TeenyTinyKoala issue is that 'disagreeing with transgender' doesn't make sense

Brb

It is actually

Yep it's still in the DSM book

transgenderism was removed from the DSM

in the fifth edition i believe

@ANGRY MARINE!!! that's cool.

Ah I’ll rephrase. I don’t believe that you can change your gender. And I don’t believe you can force others to call you by other pronouns. However, this makes people despise me lol

@dani(el) oh really? Ok.

There have been brainscans done on cis and trans individuals - it turns out that the brainstructure in white and grey mass is different in men and women and that transgender individuals have a brain that looks like that of their desired identity

Rather than what they're born with

brainsex was debunked

those same signals apply to cis people as well, its just a discrepancy

And gender dysphoria is a mentall illness

@TeenyTinyKoala I feel like you're just very uninformed on this

I know about it lol I just disagree with it

you don't have to be uninformed to disagree with transgenderism

I doubt you know about it

contrapoints has made some really good and informative videos on this topic if any of y’all are curious to learn more

i majored in psych we had to study it and i still don't agree with it lol

Considering you think it's just changing stuff randomly

Psych isn't neurology

and the neuroscience behind transgenderism is faulty

The new world we live in expects everyone to accept this change, and forcing them to change with these people. I don’t want to be forced 😅 speaking of changing, let’s change the subject

Based on what are you suggesting that?

like i said those discrepancies show themselves in cis people as well

I told you I’d upset people 😅👍🏻

Ya uh as a trans person i don’t care if you disagree with my life just give me some baseline respect

also nobody’s forcing you to do anything? you can call someone by the wrong pronouns and they can call you an asshole for it and both are perfectly fine and legal

actually it's not legal everywhere

Yeah honestly I respect you as a person. Heck one of my closest friends is trans and they’re okay with my views

Im a toaster

@TeenyTinyKoala transgender individuals have been around since the beginning of the human race - people dressing up and presenting as the gender opposite of what they were born as or between genders are as ancient as ancient rome

you're not going to change anyone's mind

I don't understand why people are disregarding facts

not everyone who disagrees with trans people is just "ignorant"

I just disagree with it. Very similar to how people disagree with religion.

It isn't at all

because their longstanding existence doesnt necessarily mean anything

other than they've existed for a long time lol
