Welcome! SaidIt is for free speech, so you won't get banned for disagreeing with the DNC or Beijing. Just don't spam ads, advocate violence, or post porn and you'll be good!

I'm a politically incorrect transwoman myself, but not a truscum — I believe you can be trans without being in a constant state of distress over your biological sex (which is the definition of "gender dysphoria"). I don't believe in self-identification either; I believe you have to act like a woman to be a woman, or a man to be a man (which means I don't believe prostitutes or females who get abortions are actually women, or that males who drink alcohol or don't provide for their families are actually men, they're just sinful animals).

My reason for leaving, or rather: being left by, the "Community" (establishment LGBT controlled by the DNC) pertains primarily to unrelated subjects, like abortion, gun rights, and Southern heritage. Establishment LGBT circles care more about killing babies and hating White people than actually furthering the interests of queerfolks. They also want privileges instead of rights and push for censorship and anti-straight discrimination, which I strongly oppose.

Holy moly, TAM. This is a side of you that is unexpected. I guess I should have properly stalked your blogs after all. Whew. Are you sure you are not a secret Nazi?

Hello, and thank you!

You have a unique perspective and opinions, I really like that. I appreciate your thoughts on these things. I try to keep an open mind, and I can see where you're coming from regarding that "truscum" ideology regarding gender dysphoria. There are a lot of different kinds of people who fall under the large transgender "umbrella" that includes more types of gender nonconforming people than perhaps were previously defined as transgender. I'm a fairly liberal person and pretty accepting of anyone or anything that isn't hurting others. I've found a lot of mutual agreement with truscum and gender critical thinking, and I guess in some circles those views could be considered a little regressive or "old fashioned" in contemporary transgender/gender identity dialogue. But perhaps it's my own experience with transsexualism and gender dysphoria/sex dysphoria that influences my thoughts on things most. Despite being trans myself, I just don't really relate with much of the transgender community (like the concept of self ID--go nuts with it, but I don't think it's appropriate to be making legislation based on that).

Depending on how you view me, I probably don't belong in LGB spaces much either--I don't really relate with much. I think it's the "queer" and transgender circles that are pushing most for things I fundamentally disagree with or find suspect. I'm not black and white on things like the unrelated subjects you mention, but I admittedly lean liberally with them.

I'm pretty "old fashioned" myself. I'm from the rural South, and we tend to be pretty strict on how men and women are 'sposed to behave — but femininity is defined a bit differently than up North: being a "tom boy" is considered normal, and even expected in the really rural areas (like where I grew up). So our disagreements probably have some sort of cultural element to 'em.

I'm also pretty "old fashioned" on other things, like abortion.

I get that. I disagree with ninety percent of transfolks on just about every social issue there is.

I get that. I'm abstinent, so I don't delve into sexuality.

Ah, I'm more of a Conservative, really. I tend to lean left on economics, but I'm right-wing on most social issues — apparently I'm "far-right" for not wanting to censor opinions I disagree with, and a "Fascist" for not wanting to take people's guns away (the irony is not lost on them).

males who drink alcohol sinful animal

God has a special providence for fools, drunkards, and the United States of America.

Not sure what that's 'sposed to mean.

On the subject of religion: alcohol is a demon.

It means that God looks out for those in need. The people most in need are not generally upstanding characters. Remember that Jesus loved whores as people.

Oh, I've never heard anyone say "providence" before, except when referring to Rhode Island.

Jesus loves the people, not the sin. Prostitution is a demon.
