It's one thing to respond to posts you don't like with rude, puerile put downs such as "pointless" and "crap" and whingey throwaway phrases like "dogwhistle rant," "don't waste your time" and "why should I bother."

If you don't like it then don't write three paragraphs of personal opinion that literally reads to me as nothing but you stroking the egos of other radfem posters here.

But why make a vulgar reference to male group masturbation? Do you really think likening the "GC" side - most of whom are women - to a bunch of fellas sitting around with their dicks in their hands wanking & jizzing makes you come off as persuasive?

I mean, I know you know that in context I'm not saying you and the gals are whipping out dicks to what you wrote. And if you somehow dont:

"Circle Jerk" is a pejorative slang term referring to a positive feedback loop which occurs when an idea or belief that is already customary within an online community becomes re-iterated and rewarded in a perpetual cycle

And that it will help convince others that you "pass" as a woman IRL as you tell us you do?

Besides this being arguably against the rules (No personal attacks. This includes insults, inquiring into a person's appearance or passability...), why do I care if a group of women on the internet think I don't pass because I use an internet word on the internet?

This Levine guy really likes to quote himself. Again I don't know what you want out of me here, I too have qualms with WPATH SOC. They aren't yours, but they are there.

BTW, I never mentioned the word "evil." Only you did. Twice

True, I used my magic power of 'inference'. You didn't use evil, but you did use:

-Big pharma (a conspiracy surrounding an evil corporatist plot)

-SUBJECTING children and adolescents to DAMAGING medical intervention

-slew of odious policies

-irresponsible, injurious practice

I don't see it as that much of a stretch, to be honest, Mark.

I take issue with the fact that you're preaching the clinical treatment of people with a medical disorder as a harmful practice. It's done so without proof, I've had people on this site go so far as to tell me they have no proof at all. Your "come to terms with their bodies and develop healthy self-concepts and self-esteem." is thinly veiled conversion therapy advocation unless you can provide concrete evidence loving oneself more is an effective cure for GD.

In conclusion, Mark, I don't believe it's a post you wrote to me, I believe it's a post you wrote to your GC audience. Considering to even get through the first couple of sentences I have to go off the assumption that gender dysphoria doesn't exist, an assumption which I will not make, I think that's a fairly safe guess.

Again, "WPATH is biased I don't trust your source" would have sufficed.
