Gender Discussion #13

When will karma come for Jones? Seriously. Such a smug sanctimonius crettin.

Heartbreaking that a gay man was attacked and bullied at Pride. Who is the event supposed to be for, again?!

Not about gender, but showing how social media can influence young people

Media outlets note…. The absolute arrogance of that man to assume he speaks for gay people. Or that gay people are a monolith. What a crappy crappy person.

In today's edition of, "Puberty blockers are reversible ," this case report is a few years old, but looked at the impact of pubertal suppression on the brain via cognitive evaluation and MR imaging.

The 11 year old boy's global IQ dropped from 80 to 71 over the three years of his treatment, as well as other markers such as Comprehension Index and Working Memory Index.

Ijust find this all terribly problematic:

"At age three, they noticed some female behaviors and sought out psychological treatment. They were informed about a possible DG diagnosis, and the child was kept in psychotherapy to “reverse the desire of belonging to the opposite sex” until age seven. The patient and parents report that she made efforts to behave as a boy during this treatment. At nine, she assumed her gender identity and reported believing that she was born the wrong sex, and she wanted to be a girl."

What are 'female behaviours', why were they a problem? What does 'behave as a boy' mean?

This ideology is so unbelievably regressive. Astonishing that it's proponents think that they are edgy and cool. Bunch of bleeping eejits. Not capable of the most basic critical thinking.

80 is already low, 100 is considered average and most people fall in the 90-110 range they really couldn't afford to drop anymore as it was.

That's a good point - the child was already vulnerable and has been harmed as a result of experimental treatment that he wouldn't have had the capacity to understand or consent to. And they call GC people Nazis

I wonder what men will say if this demand becomes widespread... See if the wokebros act as they preach, like they have done to lesbians about the lie about some lesbians having penises ...

P.s. love the meme

 

[Satisfying Click]

The wokebros will tie themselves in knots like pretzels, to mansplain their way out of that one.

Can someone help me understand what non binary is? Trendy word for Bisexual?

 

[AlanBanan]

He looks like something the fellowship would have to try and defeat in Lord of the Rings!

I think it means not identifying as either male or female as opposed to sexual preference

 

[Bitofthebubbly]

A post on r/askfeminists asking why there are so many ‘terfs’, the comments are comedy gold. Apparently we are all conservatives and don’t include women of colour in our narratives. There also ‘aren’t very many’ of us which of course is bollocks. If you ever have questions about feminism, that sub is one of the worst places to get answers.


Link if you want a laugh.

I’m not keen on sharing things from dubious (hyper religious) sources or memes that have been made by 4chan.

I don't really understand why trans is part of LGBT.
lgb is supposed to be about sexuality. Trans isn't about sexual partners, it's about gender.

Surely if youre a gay man whose transed to a woman and you have relationships with men, then youre sexuality is covered by the G, why do they need to be represented as T .

Non binary definitely shouldn't be part of LGBT, especially not if you're opposite sex attracted.

I totally agree. As you say they are entirely different things. Makes no sense what wanting to be a different gender has to do with sexual preferences. Again they are showing their stupidity by conflating sex and gender

They have to be included in everything.

If something bad happens the trans lobby will interfere with “THIS IS WHY WE NEED TO PROTECT OUR TRANS COMMUNITY”

For an example there was something about a high rate of Black women being killed by men and no one not really caring so they came out with “Black women lives matter” to help spread awareness to the cause and the trans community overshadowed it with “Black trans lives matter”

They make everything about them as they’re all a bunch of self identifying narcissistic victims who have no concept of life outside of the internet. They make stuff up to make themselves angry and then go online to talk about so a bunch of brainwashed people unable to form their own opinion will pity them and validate them.

Give them an inch and they’ll take a mile.
