This is just not true. Ignoring it is just as bad as accepting it. My daughter isn't being raised to view this condition as normal or acceptable. Your great plan of ignoring it will only further the push to accept it as normal, at which point it most certainly can affect my life and my child's life.

How so?

And how are you not accepting this condition?

There is no girl in the article.


Sure. She has X and Y chromosomes, but so do the people in the example I presented earlier. Transgender females feel like they were born with "female" brains and prefer to be referred to by "she". It is the standard practice in all hospitals for doctors and other healthcare workers to do so.

You could actually use this fact to point out hypocrisy on the left when feminists say that male and female brains are identical (which they aren't) and then later try to say that transgenders are born with the "wrong" brain. If all brains are the same and gender is a social construct, then transgenders shouldn't exist...

But, instead you choose to try to come across as condescending.

Pointing out a fact is not condescending. The person in the article is a boy. If stating obvious facts is considered condescending, you may need to reevaluate your stance.

I don't accept it as normal and will raise my family with the same belief. My daughter is a girl. Nothing she says from now to the end of time will change that. She can be a bulldyke for all I care (I would totally support and love a homosexual child, of either gender), but she's physically a girl.

You come across as directly attacking the kid though, which just doesn't sit well with me when an adult ridicules a teenager, especially since it seems she seems pretty down to earth not giving a shite about being some SJW activist.

Well, I guess if a he is going to become a she, at least they are passable. Probably started hormone blockers when younger so they didn't go into puberty, which is why he looks more feminine than some on the market.

Live and let live, I guess. It doesn't affect my day to day, but this person has set themselves up for a very hard road in life.

Ok. That is different than not accepting the condition. Thanks for the clarification.

I have no issue with anyone believing it is not normal (it isn't), nor do I have issue with someone calling is a mental illness (it is), but what I do find interesting is the vitriol towards this particular mental illness, but not others.

The left props this one up as not an illness. That is why it is "attacked."

There is a line for that which the SJWs are pushing to serve their narrative: pronoun usage. And I'm not saying he or she, I'm talking about ze or zer. It's so fricking confusing and really pisses me off.


You are talking about an incredibly tiny, but highly publicized, little group with the "ze" and "zer." I'm progressive, but do not want a bunch of pronoun changes.

What we're saying is if someone wants to identify as another sex, who cares? I except out sports where it could be a fraud. It would ruin our sports if men could say "I'm a woman" and compete.

According to SJW this is not an illness



I don't really care what this person does, but if a person still has their twig and berries, they are a boy

It's certainly a mental disorder, and hell the subject of the article openly acknowledges it. I agree saying that being transgendered is normal is simply fricking insane. You should immediately go to a psychiatrist if you're thinking this since it is definitely a disorder. But lots of people directly attack these kids, which I have a big problem with.

I don't disagree with that at all.

The kid is going through enough. The parents that encourage this shite instead of seeking mental help though...

I don't think children should have hormone blockers, or elective style plastic surgery.

Ok.

Even if someone refuses to admit such, why the vitriol? Especially towards the actual person with the illness/defect?

Ugh, gender isn't as fluid as the left makes it out to be, but there are weird scenarios - transgenderism being one of them. There are people walking among us who appear female externally (either through an endocrine disorder or surgery) and have XY chromosomes. They prefer to be referred to as female. It is courteous and polite to attempt to do so because their sex is somewhat ambiguous.

Do you walk up to kids with Down Syndrome and ask their parents how their mongoloid, retarded son is doing? It's just a fact. It's not condescending. He's mentally retarded and looks "Mongoloid".
