  • You aren't trans so maybe you shouldn't talk about the experiences of trans women, especially when one says that this doesn't align with our experiences.

    I have never known a trans woman to have "reasons", especially ones as superficial as this, and I am one my self. There are signs but not reasons. To say otherwise is to imply that there are things that make someone trans - would you like being told something made you gay, like a trauma? We are born this way. You know that.

    If she really did consider her micropenis a factor, it's just a mental confabulation to help her along her journey.

  • You should use she/her pronouns given we know they were AMAB and are trans. At the very least they/them. He/him is almost certainly wrong.

  • Right, hence calling it fake

    Edit: if you mean they were lying when they told their dad that, why would they phrase it as "admitted"?

  • a big reason that drove me was that I have a micropenis

    Fake. There are no "reasons to drive someone" other than their internal gender, this sounds like something a cis person who thinks being trans is a choice would say.

  • Direct democracy doesn't only not contradict with anarchism, it is a core tenet of anarchism. After all, how do we get rid of unjustified hierarchy without creating a hierarchy free from rulership?

  • This is frankly a really classist remark. No need to bring up her socioeconomic class when there's a perfectly valid reason to dunk on her already (being a Trump supporter and not knowing when the election is).

  • No, "Springfield" is a very common town name (especially one founded not on a body of water or river but in a field with springs), which is why The Simpsons selected it. May as well have been "Anytown, USA".

    Anyways, the hoax of Haitian immigrants eating cats was supposedly happening in Springfield, Ohio. It's baseless but that is what Trump fell for, not a Simpsons sketch or anything like that.

  • Consider also that receiving HRT requires you to convince your doctor you are trans, and Informed Consent comes into play. They would likely be informed of all of the side effects.

    I would say that the 10% of cis men who wouldn't experience dysphoria in your hypothetical weren't cis in the first place. In fact, anyone who transitions to "own the libs" is probably just trans and scared.

  • If it's to prove a point then they won't pass the regulatory body, like when Ben Shapiro tried to get a bunch of mediocre male basketball players to pretend to transition to try to get them into a women's basketball tourney. It didn't work, because they were obviously not trans. It isn't even difficult to tell, because they obviously don't have the relationship with their gender trans people have. It would be hard to fake. And none of them were on hormones anyways so they wouldn't have qualified in the first place.

    Estrogen supplementation on a male mind will cause gender dysphoria, so I don't think they would be able to keep it up for very long. But say one does, why would they knowingly make themselves infertile with no benefit? I know I had to weigh fertility and HRT and only went with HRT because of the mental health benefits that come with it. A cis man pretending gets no benefit, but does get:

    • Infertility
    • Significant muscle mass loss (remember we are talking about male athletes, muscles are kinda their whole thing)
    • Gender dysphoria, as they are now taking the wrong hormones

  • That is true.

    Did I miss the sarcasm or do you really think ANYONE would/could transition just for supposed gains in sports, let alone EVERYONE? They would have to take hormones that make them permanently infertile for over a year and proceed with a social transition all to convince a regulatory body that they are trans (and all of this would be incredibly difficult on their non-trans minds), and they would lose an incredible amount of muscle mass which typically athletes... Wouldn't want

  • Con: Literally every single professional athlete will become trans so they can win at sports.

    Please tell me I'm missing the sarcasm here šŸ™„šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø

    What experts do you think are lying about trans people?

    Not asking for any changes to the design or layout (Android mode is perfect) just specifically the Material You colors
