"one of the symptoms of being a girl is wanting to be a girl", said literally no girl ever. One of the symptoms of being a girl is often wanting to NOT be a girl and be afraid and anxious about becoming a woman because womanhood seemed to be about being restricted and controlled. These people are delusional and dangerous.

"Gender feels" are now more innate than someone's sexual orientation?! These people really think our same-sex attraction is based on a bunch of dumb gender stereotypes.. ? How can people not see that this is just conversion therapy but make it woke!!

I've just realized they don't give a shit about gay kids being brutalized and converted because "there are gay trans people." Straight people saying they're gay makes up for all the real gay people who are medically abused, in their minds.

TRAs are trapped in a 1950s understanding of gender stereotypes and it's quite sick to witness. They hate gender-nonconformity so is it a surprise they view homosexuality, the quintessential gender-nonconforming behavior, as undesirable. Trans and homosexuality are conflicting ideologies and these people won't rest until they trans every last one of us.

By their own definitions I am trans and yet they still won't let me speak. Of course lots of us probably fantasized about being a man. I know one person who admitted that they were trans because they thought people would respect them more as a man, they didn't.

Yep. Talked to a queer activist online pre-Rowling and (honestly) asked for his definition of "cis". It was: When you're comfortable and happy with your gender role. To which I replied: Well, that makes me a trans man.

Gave him pause. Any definition of trans that includes me should NOT be presented to children.

Wouldn't that make, like, all feminists trans men? Shit, we could start a movement.

You might be on to something... If we all start IDing as men, maybe people would start listening? And we could get everybody disagreeing with us get kicked of the internet?

It's interesting how absolutely illdefined, confusing and nonsensical it all is. You are assigned a gender and can change it. But gender is not your sex it's in your head. But you can also not have a gender or I assume be agender if you just don't care about it. But you're trans if you've ever thought about gender. Oh idk

You can be agender. It's asinine, in my opinion, because it has no meaning. But it is a commonly recognized gender identity in rad queer circles. You can also be "genderfree," but there was a thing with a GC feminist using genderfree to qualify for an LGBTQ+ award at her workplace. I think it's now considered a TERF dogwhistle. But as the GC feminist pointed out, she was just using workplace provided gender identity definitions. It arguably was trolling, but it was also sincere. Many of us are agender or genderfree. (presumably, there's a difference between those two terms, but I don't know what they are).

I'm agender by gender identity definitions. I occasionally debated coming out as agender when I was in super woke spaces because I was so uncomfortable by not knowing how saying I was a woman was interpreted. I felt like I was being coerced into this lie of having some essence of woman feeling in my soul. But instead, I peaked and am here.

That enormously long thread of comments, each of them utterly illogical and irrational, high-fiving each other. I guess the idea is to pretend that there are no constraints to what someone can be and that pretty much everyone on this earth is probably trans. That is also insulting to people who suffer horribly from gender dysphoria.

I like my dick. I just so happy to want to put that in butts of guys with dicks. I like to rub my dick against other dicks. I like to rub my dick against beards. I like to put my partner’s dick in my mouth while he puts my dick in his mouth.

I don’t want a vagina. I don’t want a vagina. I like who I am: a man that likes and loves other men. Easy as that.

So many young people, who would be so into learning critical gender theory, are instead derailed into a likely years-long obsession with gender theory labelling without any actual analysis. (Sigh)

I so dearly wish that "trans" wasnt used interchangeably with "gender nonconforming".

I think that theres a very real phenomenon with teens on anonymous internet sites who want to self-diagnose. This is a reflection of them seeking answers as they try to understand their new, adult selves. If only they didnt muddy the waters so terribly for everyone else.

Look, transmen and trans women I can understand. But fuck and go die in a hole this concept of being "gender fluid". Like, just leave. You don't exist.

  • CowboysLovingBoys

. . . could there be any three user names that more perfectly embody autogynephilia, autohomoeroticism, and attention-seeking gender woo respectively?
