I assume any "man" who waits tables is gay or a tranny.

Entertaining thread is entertaining

I said F this, politely got the family up out of our seats and excused ourselves without incident other than me saying everybody has a choice.



Were you afraid that you would catch something?

I have Tourettes. Should I not be allowed to work in public spaces?

I haven’t read any studies, but this wouldn’t surprise me if true. I don’t know the best treatment for this particular mental illness, but I’m certain shunning and shaming a mentally ill person at work isn’t the best approach.

You just started thread about leaving a business bc someone who worked there didn’t look a certain way


It appears that the OP left because he was uncomfortable in the situation

OT going to bat for pedophiles next. ...


2 questions.

Obviously pedophiles are evil in that they pray on and rape children. They are directly harming another person. How is a man who wants to wear a dress and have consensual sex with another man harming anyone. It's weird as frick, yes, but who is getting harmed in this situation.

If a pedophile was your waiter, how would you know it? They don't just walk around with a shirt on that says "I'm a pedophile".

We all have the right to do what the OP did. Just like the mentally ill tranny person has the right to think it's a female or male. I would have taken my family and left also. This isn't looked at as normal in my family. This world needs a whole lotta "Normal" these days.

pretty sure the OP said they just got up and left without saying a word, so not sure where you are getting the shaming part

Literally no one has argued OP didn’t have the right to leave.

Nor in society. It’s very rare. Can someone who doesn’t fit your view of normal not bring you some pizza and beer without you being triggered?

Pretty sure he wasn’t man enough to say anything to the tranny, but made sure to tell the hostess.

Some quick blurbs -

quote:

Roughly 1,200 respondents said they had an alternate gender identity, meaning they do not identify with the gender that matches their birth sex. The researchers grouped these students -- about 2 percent of the study's sample, which included transgender students, gender-queer students and gender-nonconforming students and others -- into a category called “gender-minority students.”

Almost 80 percent of these gender-minority students reported having at least one mental health issue compared to 45 percent of their cisgender peers -- students whose gender aligns with their assigned birth sex.

The study was published Friday in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Its lead author, Sarah Ketchen Lipson, an assistant professor of health law, policy and management at Boston University, said while mental health professionals and LGBTQ advocates are aware that gender-minority students are much more likely to grapple with mental health issues, the general public is not.


One showing 60%-ish with psych diagnoses

quote:

We performed a cross-sectional analysis of the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses among transgender patients in clinical care using an all-payer electronic health record database. Of 10,270 transgender patients identified, 58% (n=5940) had at least one psychiatric diagnosis compared with 13.6% (n=7,311,780) in the control patient population (p<0.0005).


There are many more, although it's not exactly something most journals or universities are going to jump at due to the implications.

Of course, in reality, it's 100%.

I honestly have no idea what you are saying. You were the one equating not leaving a restaurant due to a tranny waitress to supporting pedophilia.

did you miss the "public spaces" part of that post? do you work in a business that serves the public?

Its a mental illness or defect, is it not?

follow-up question: is there any job in society where you might say, “maybe trannies aren’t suited for this role/job” ?

I tend to agree. That said, I think it's hard to compare to other illness because societally we're not instructed to cater to and ingratiate the problematic aspects of other illnesses as we are with trans individuals.

As a general rule? I’m not sure. I can’t think of a job off the top of my head.
