Using Trans Pronouns

“A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, ‘You are mad; you are not like us.” —St. Anthony the Great

 

My position is the same as Ben Shapiro’s on this topic.

 

I agree, but I don't support that either. I would refer to those people as "trans trenders," or people who "think" they're trans because society has made it seem normal or cool or like any slight feeling of tomboyishness men as you're a boy. I would put those people in the same category as the transracial people. And of course it's not always possible to tell if someone is "really" trans or not, so I'm sure some of those people I will believe when maybe I shouldn't. But at the end of the day, my point still stands. Transgenderism is a legitimate thing and being transracial is not. There might be some BS transgender people out there, but all of the transracial or transage or transabled, or whatever else they can come up with, people are not in the same category as transgender people.

 

Totally agree. I actually heard Blaire White talking about this recently. I believe it was on the Rubin Report, if anyone wants to look it up. They need to be seeking better options and stop acting like transition is a magic cure, especially considering the extremely high suicide rate of trans people that doesn't change much after transition. People arent just magically cured, and surgeries like that are incredibly risky and super expensive.

Personally, I don't see why they don't focus more attention on helping the person feel more comfortable with the gender they actually are. Like for instance, if someone is a boy and has extremely high estrogen levels or other complications that lead to gender dysphoria, why do we think the situation is to pump him full of more estrogen and give him surgeries to change his body and voice lessons so he can talk more like a girl, etc, when CLEARLY the simpler option would be to put him on testosterone, to correct the imbalance. Has that even been tried? I feel like gender dysphoria would be a lot more likely to be eliminated if we worked to make them more comfortable with their actual sex, given that no matter how much you transition, you're still never going to be fully the opposite gender. I believe Ben Shapiro mentioned this once, as well. I haven't watched those video clips yet, so forgive me if I'm repeating him.

 

As usual, I agree with Ben as well. He's a pretty smart man. Sometimes I disagree with him, but for the most part he usually has a pretty sound, logical argument.

 

The world is your oyster, your grace.

 

I've already answered this question several times. If you want a more comprehensive explanation of why they're different, aside from the explanations I've already given, you can do your own research.

True... But I haven't declared that subjective feelings are more important than biology. Hence the reason I can see the clear difference between gender dysphoria and being "transracial."

I agree with you that those other examples are crazy and we shouldn't be giving into people's delusions in that way. But being transgender, as I've already explained multiple times, is different than those things. So if you're asking where the line is and where it should end, that's my answer. The line is transgenderism, because there are actual biological reasons for someone to have gender dysphoria. Obviously people who think they are trans race or trans age or whatever need serious help as well, but it should be treated slightly differently than transgenderism, because it's a different thing.

 

What is wrong with acquiescing to the desires of the mentally ill, if it helps them without harming you?

 

I think the argument there is whether or not it does help them. Being nice to people isn't always the same as helping them.

 

Oh no... look what you made me find :/

As usual, I have no idea what you're saying. Lol
