Classic, and it's been too long since I watched that crazy fricking cowboy ride that bomb into oblivion...

Which could be a really awesome euphemism if we wanted to give it any thought

Yep, the counterculture of the 60's was shady and violent. Lots of kids disappeared along the way. My dad was friends with some of these types, they were very interesting for me, even at a young age.

Not a gonadal steroid study, but feminization of male rat fetuses has been linked to opioids.

Did you read past the title or abstract?

Hell...it’s in the abstract. “Endogenic opioids.” These are things produced in the body, usually by the brain...shite like endorphin and dopamine. They aren’t talking about heroin.

The study gave the pregnant females a drug that reduces the craving for opioids...or didn’t give it to them...and then intentionally stressed them out by immobilizing them.

I mean, it’s interesting, but I’m not sure it’s strong support for you position concerning transgenderism.

Seems like it might go more towards homosexuality, though... which is what’s in the article’s intro. If you’re arguing homosexuality is something that happens because of various factors in utero, I’ll agree with you.

The best part of your pity party is this is the elevated and enlightened post I initially responded to.


Which was in response to:

So yeah, I would say even my post that you quoted was "elevated and enlightened" by comparison to what I was replying to

Anyway, not looking for pity. TD has just become so fricking boring. Feel free to insult me, but at least make it interesting. Calling me gay for like half a dozen pages is boring as frick.

They think trans women should be seen exactly the same as biological women and vice versa for trans men. They think seeing any difference is transphobic. It’s basically the same argument as what is presented in the OP and my post under it about not wanting to sleep with trans people.

My overall point being that the chemical (opioid or steroid) is the determinant on brain development, not the binary distinction between “testes” and “ovaries.”

Opioids and steroids can vary on a continuous scale, producing a spectrum of brain types and hence behavior phenotypes.

And they want to control how you can think regarding the issue. There is no tolerance for deviation.

What era of TD would have allowed you to discuss the merits of gender fluidity while occasionally telling people to suck dicks without catching some shite?

Exactly.

It is the view that the mental state should define the physical reality, therefore conflating the physical and non-physical, not separating them.

And none of that makes a man a woman or a woman a man.

Oh I understand it; I simply find it baffling. We've gone from empowering people's sexual preferences to believing no one should have sexual preferences. I'm a cis-gendered heterosexual male. If I say I prefer women with big/small/whatever breasts, no one bats an eye. But I say that I prefer women with vaginas and all of a sudden there's a percentage of the population who wants to blow a gasket over that?

Some "progressives" have missed the runway and flown straight into the "regressive" territory they claim to loathe so much.

They can’t really be Elvis no matter how much they try. They can get plastic surgery, hair plugs, even wear his exact clothes.

But they still aren’t Elvis.

These Trans-fascists not only want you to address them as Elvis, but demand you BELIEVE they are Elvis.

It’s messed up


That is an exceptionally good explanation.

Again, I don't mind catching shite. I mind how boring the shite is. Though I will admit that I'm still genuinely surprised at the shite I've caught on this thread, being my first post is, at least substantially, one that is in line with TD groupthink. It's not like I came out in support of the premise of the OP.

And people on TD have been telling each other to eat dicks for literally my entire time on here

First, phobia means "the fear of". Not liking something does not make you afraid of it. Saying not liking trans makes you transphobic is insane. Words have meanings.

Saying I like gumbo does not mean I like doughnuts and chocolate milk. Liking doughnuts and chocolate milk has words to describe that, too.

No matter how much someone cries that words mean things they do not, it does not change the meaning.

Maybe we should take all special interest groups that like to whinge constantly, give them an AR, parachute them into Afghanistan, and see how long it takes them to love the USA again.

Logical arguments with these people are pointless. Standard response whenever confronted by any trans person:

“You really should seek psychological help.”

These people are crazy and need to be treated as such.

They are culturally appropriating the suffix "-phobia" which means "fear".


These psychos are just making up their own language and standards without anyone's consent.
