I am having a hard time thinking of any country/region that does openly accept this mental illness as “normal”.


I don't know what the locals think of the them, but ladyboys are pretty common in Thailand.

This argument has become very prevalent in the last 20-30 years: "oh, this conduct is prevalent in some primitive culture, so it's natural and we shouldn't stigmatize it."

Most of those cultures had their asses kicked by appalled Englishmen or Spaniards 300-400 years ago. A lot of them didn't have the wheel, engaged in human sacrifice, etc.

Sometimes it even goes as far as, "male dogs / zebras / fish hump each other, so we should too." The fact that the absurdity of these arguments isn't immediately obvious to people is pretty depressing.

What fascinates me about this whole “trans” narrative with children is the leftist say the kids understand fully the implications of this and should be allowed to make this life altering decision but yet when a kid commits murder or other heinous crimes they immediately say the kid is too young to hand down an adult sentence to them because they don’t understand the implications. I guess I should not be shocked by the hypocrisy of the liberals / progressives / leftist.

See it won’t end here. Next step is normalizing trans-race. You already have people that have tried or trying the trans-race thing and they are cast down for it , Rachel Dolezal is an example of this. Is the next narrative trans-species? You may laugh but anything is possible. I mean what keeps someone from saying today i am a dog and you must accept it and dogs don’t follow this set of society rules.

There is no end to this.

Please keep in mind that some detransition because of things like no support, or homeless or financial situation.


At some point the reality is that if you are homeless, trans, and can’t find psych support in 2020 America then this life may not be for you. At some point society has to move on and understand that 100% of people may just not be psychologically fit to survive. That’s harsh as hell, but that’s what nature has done since inception.

Yea, people just LOVED being gay when they were being persecuted and ostracized, which in the course of history, still isn’t that very long ago. Gay for the gram.

My nephew decided he is trans. He should be committed somewhere. End of story. He is not mentally well.

Most trans people I have met are not mentally well, and need to be receiving treatment. The ones that don't need it... well, I guess they are doing it right, and I didn't realize they were trans.

Clown world belongs in the circus, and yet it’s discussed on television like it’s completely normal. There’s a lot of responsibility for this crap in America becoming normalized over the last few years, but those who are most responsible are those who normalize serious mental conditions like this on television in the media, in television programming, and in government. They are those who bear the real burden of responsibility for this country losing their collective minds.

Have you tried getting psych support/care recently? There aren’t many places you can just walk in and see a mental health care provider, even for those with financial means and hood private insurance.

Likely due to societal pressure. And laugh if you want, but in some parts of the country and in a huge part of our Chinese-backed media activists, this shite is encouraged and heavily marketed.

Bingo. Somewhere in all of this the LGBTQ/progressive crowd was able to remove this reality from the conversation. So rather than treating the mental illness, we have decided to just give in to it. We don't do this for any other mental illness that I am aware of.

This is so shocking. People with mental illnesses need help, not transitioning.

I don’t know. But I’ve known two that were legit. You can argue all you want. I know what I saw.

Does that mean that everyone declaring themselves TG really is, or that we should mutilate kids? Of course not. But there are people who went from near-suicides to happy-and-functioning by transitioning.

I’ve been this way since I was six, so I have no other frame of reference. Guess I made a pretty okay life for myself, living with 46 years of insanity :/
