I don't understand it but the things I don't understand are far greater than those I do like all honest people.


You think? No one is saying they hate these people or don't feel sadness for them. It must be torturous for people to truly feel that awkward in society that they're willing to go to these extremes.

The issue is that we are now to accept that a man can BE a woman. Not only accept it, celebrate it! They can now compete against biological women in sports and get awards for "Women's Month" LOL.

Tampax tweeted a while back that they support "people who bleed". Businesses are putting tampons in the men's room to accommodate "trans men" and their needs. Please note I have rarely (outside of private clubs) seen free tampons in a women's restroom. It's completely INSULTING to actual women and the life experience of being a female. Reducing us to being all about hair and lipstick is absurd.

Serious question....what are y'all doing in public restrooms which indicate a trans person is present??? I think we have found the source of the angst....

When I go to a public restroom I just assume everyone in it is a man. I don't ask, I don't sneak a peek and, in all honesty, I try to not even notice anyone else in there. It ain't the place for idle conversation or surreptitious sneaking glances at the other people present....either is simply weird. Presumably anyone in there could have a vagina and some huge breasts and to be honest I would never suspect the former and would merely think something was physically wrong with them if I noticed the latter. Apparently I am in the minority in this...apparently a good many of you go to the bathroom in public and somehow VERIFY everyone's reproductive organs are correct for the environment they are in. That is some truly bizarre and twisted shite y'all got going on...but you do you boo, who I am to judge.

There three genders. Masculine, Feminine, Neuter.



Neuter isn't a gender. It's the lack of gender. The word is quite literally Latin for "neither".


quote:

All 3 are associated with typical characteristics culturally and socially associated with one of the 3. They have NOTHING to do with biology, plumbing, reproduction or sex.


bullshite. The two genders - Masculine and Feminine - are the characteristic representation of the male and female sex. They are the quality expression of biological sex.



quote:

All of those are biological facts which can be determined by testing and supported by a heaping pile of data which states unequivocally that there are two biological sexes unrelated in any manner with gender.





Just a complete and utter fabrication.

You asked another poster why a person like this would be problematic in a bathroom. These are your words.

It is very obvious when you are talking to a man who is transitioning. Your 6th sense picks it up. They are larger than the average female, generally have over pronounced "female" mannerisms, unusually high pitch for a voice, not very good at doing hair/makeup, etc.

Your spidey senses know you're around a person who isn't right in the head. So again, biological women - who are at a physical disadvantage and are at risk of rape/pregnancy - don't want to be taking care of private business in the same room as a mentally ill man pumped full of hormones.

The fact that I'm even having to defend this position to you tells you the absolute clown world we are living in.

problem people seem to have today is the individual who does not identify their gender in the manner which society of culture dictates. They exist and always have. There is nothing inherently evil or insane about this...most of pick and choose what societal and cultural norms we adhere to. Many people are devoutly religious, some are not. It isn't a mental illness either way.


It's not necessarily mental illness to be more feminine as a male or masculine as a female. Get your freak on and do your thing, cross dress, etc, whatever. It is mental illness when the individual actually believes they are a woman, but physically a man, and vice-versa. It becomes extreme mental illness when the individual wants others to perceive them as such and/or go as far as having procedures to attempt to change their sex. If physically male, just because you feel like a woman and are more feminine in nature, does not make your gender female. No one cares that much if the man wants to wear a dress, but keep that shite to yourself, as just a man in a dress. It doesn't need to be displayed at a show, the false message doesn't need to be conveyed to children or anyone, it shouldn't and won't be accepted for people to play along with those kinds of feelings. You can feel and act as whatever you want, but it doesn't actually make it true.

Don't waste any more of your time or energy with him. I'm not. This will be the last time I post in this thread.

To any interested observers out there, read through this thread and draw your own conclusions. I believe the record speaks for itself.

Awgusta is sophist incapable of winning this debate on the merit of his claims; he has to fabricate false premises and "facts" in order to argue his position. He is even willing to lie unashamedly. When challenged and presented with incontrovertible evidence that he is lying, he will double down on his lies.

He's losing a two-fronted war to both logic and practical lived human experience. He has no interest in truth; just "winning" and he will pull every dirty trick in the book to win at all costs, just like an obedient, radical revolutionist does. Because he can't win a fair chess match, he attempts to manipulate the pieces when he thinks we aren't looking in order to bring about his desired result.

He is now cowering in his bunker, pointing fingers at us and claiming that we're the weird, crazy freaks in need of counseling. FTR, these are verbatim excerpts from one of his earlier posts:

quote:

School kids 6 and 8 years old walking by these displays without a moment's notice. Some of those kids actually emerging from the doorway of brothels.


quote:

There is nothing at all evil about those stores or the brothels on that street.


I suspect that he will watch this thread like a vulture for the sole purpose of getting the last word in, with the hopes that it makes him look like the victor.

If gender is completely subjective, then why is it so important for them to get everyone else to agree with them ?

Yep, statistically speaking, biological women are 5-6 times more likely to be raped than biological men. No reason they should be sharing bathrooms.

There is nothing inherently biological about a bathroom. Its gender is assigned by societal and cultural traits.

Are there urinals in “female” bathrooms? Why are the lines at sporting events longer at “female” bathrooms than at the “male” bathrooms? Societal construct?

His implied belief is if bathrooms were meant to be segregated based on biological sex and not social gender, the little stick figures would have a penis or vagina instead of a dress or slacks.

I don’t give a shite if a grown man chooses to dress like a woman.

I do however give a shite if some liberal teacher tries to convince a 3rd grader that it’s normal and groom them into doing it.

I’d even go a step further and say that most of us aren’t necessarily afraid of the mere idea of sharing a restroom with a biological male who’s genuinely trying to “pass” as a biological female, because the whole point of that exercise is to avoid calling attention to yourself by making biological females suspicious and uncomfortable. The same rule applies to anyone in a restroom, trans or not: Don’t bother me and I won’t bother you.

The real problem as I see it is that a policy of facilitating anyone, anytime to enter a vulnerable space through self-proclaimed identity throws the door wide open for people who actually do want to make others uncomfortable — or even physically harm them — to gain ready access to victims with no more effort than it takes to verbalize two words: I’m trans. It’s MA’AM! I feel.

And suddenly … they’re bulletproof? It doesn’t matter if there’s zero truth to their words; doesn’t matter if they’re delusional and malicious instead, or just cold, calculating liars? If you say or do anything to intervene, even in the face of an obvious con, then you’ll be the one who’s reprimanded, shamed, and/or kicked out.

This kind of nebulous, candy-coated policy is pathetically easy to exploit, which makes it a guaranteed magnet for predatory behavior. The end result is that you’d inevitably place far more innocent people in a far more dangerous situation than you would protect. Even if you don’t believe that’s an immoral position, it’s still logically indefensible and frankly insane from a risk management perspective.

Predators already destroy enough lives at is is. For God’s sake let’s not gift them with a freaking golden loophole just because we’re scared of making unpopular decisions.

What a shite show of progressive nonsense that has led us to having to say "there are only two sexes" and it is somehow controversial. We are the freaking laughingstock of the world

Who is carrying on a conversation with a stranger in a public restroom? Is this something y’all do on a regular basis? That’s creepy as creepy gets. I knew y’all had to be doing something strange in there but I had no idea it was as bad as engaging in conversation with a stranger in a public bathroom. I doubt it ends with breaking that social taboo though…

I would also suggest that if a woman in a public bathroom is put out by bad hair and makeup and responding to her “6th” sense there’s is certainly someone in that bathroom with some mental issues…..

Is it just the presence of this tall, hulking woman with a strange voice and acting more like a woman than most women that these frail women fear as rapists? So that tall, ungainly woman, bent on raping someone in a public restroom, is foiled by a law preventing them being in that bathroom? They are willing to rape but using the wrong bathroom is too serious a crime????

How are we gonna enforce this law??? Let’s say one of these frail women, suffering from irrational fears but engaging in conversations with strangers in public bathrooms, runs across one of these ungainly women with bad hair and makeup. She manages to make good her escape even though the would be rapist never acknowledges her attempts to strike up a conversation. Does she call the police? How does that conversation go???

Officer to ugly woman: “Excuse me….do you have any ID”?

Ugly woman, in a high pitch voice: “ Yes, I do…why do you ask”?

Officer: “A lady called and said there was a man in a dress in the ladies room:

Here’s where it may go off the rails…

Ugly woman ( and how to tell she is actually a woman) “Oh my….I’m so glad to have survived….I could’ve been raped and Impregnated”

Or possibly….

Ugly woman : “You mean that crazy lady who would not shut up in there….do you know she tried to engage in a conversation with a stranger in a public restroom”

To which the officer would reply “No ma’am….we did not know she was a mental patient. We apologize. Have a nice day”.

Seriously, I understand that y’all are overwrought about men in dresses in the ladies room but y’all obviously haven’t gone beyond your own irrational fears and considered what it is you’re scared of….

So we need regulation to keep men out of ladies rooms to prevent rape? We ought to make rape a crime then because if a trespassing ordinance foils a rapist imagine what a serious crime against rape could accomplish.
