Some people will have severe gender dysphoria from when they were toddlers but I don't understand how people can say that this isn't contagious in some cases. I was reading on a forum about a teacher who had 8 transmen (around 14 year olds) in her year group at school and how, after a few months of home schooling and being away from that social group... 7 of them had decided that they weren't trans after all.

How do you go from prancing around in school going "Ummm.... It's Aiden okay?? Dead naming me literally kills me. And my pronouns are he/him and I insist on using the boy's toilet/locker room or else you're twansphobic uwu!" to "WHoops! Never mind! False alarm!"

I really wonder how many of these girls are too ashamed to desist?

I think they are just not very bright and blindly following the leader. The same thread talked about how one of them declared themselves to be a gay trans man but refused to date another gay trans man because that would make her a lesbian, failing to see the hypocrisy.

Deep down inside, she knows the truth. Though I'd love to see the other "trans men" rip her a new fronthole for the twansphobic thought crime she just accidentally confessed to.

Was that the poster who while simultaneously claiming to be a gay trans man said “no, ew” to dating another trans man because they would have the “same parts” as her? Like wtf do they think gay is? That is like the essence of being gay ffs, not whatever “I’m attracted to the opposite sex but that attraction always felt queer” BS.

I believe I read the same story. My last comment on GC before it got banned was

Trans is the new emo phase

[–]Three_oneFourWanted for thought crimes in countless ideologies 23 insightful - 1 fun23 insightful - 0 fun24 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

The difference is that, while emos may cut themselves, the new trans phase brings in a lot of support for them to permanently scar themselves and permanently alter their body. An emo might have a few "friends" that encourage harmful behavior, but people who think they are trans have all of tumblr and half of reddit telling them to go out and have a professional remove some of their organs. This is a lot more dangerous than the emo fad, imo

And laws to back that up and to stop any possibility of avoiding the hurt.

Nailed it. Except former trans kids won’t get to make fun of their stupid teenage haircuts or wistfully play their Taking Back Sunday albums. In the best case scenario, they’ll have a bunch of mortifying photos. In the worst case, they’ll be infertile with a host of other health problems.

I thought the same but as I was still more of a transmed and thought being trans required excessive screening of a therapist (I had no idea about this gender clinic shit and trans-friendly therapists, who are basically forbidden to give a different diagnosis) so I thought of non-binary being the new emo...

What is transmed?

[–]artetolife 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Trans people who believe they have a medical condition, aka "truscum". As opposed to the "everyone is valid uwu" crowd.

[–]INeedSomeTimeAsexual Ally 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The opposite of tucutes. A person who thinks that in order to be trans you need gender dysphoria. A transmed recognizes being transgender as a medical condition as it should be.

There's a few stories like that but I think this is the one?

Interesting reading.

[–]CJLez 21 insightful - 1 fun21 insightful - 0 fun22 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

That was the one!

However kids like this will never be talked about by the "almost nobody ever detransitions - it is less than 0.1% of 1% of the population- Stop mentioning them - they didn't medically transition so it they were never really trans anyway" crowd who will then turn around literally two seconds later and say "you don't need dysphoria or to physically transition to be trans - if you say you are trans then you are trans and nobody has the right to question it."

The people who seriously got dysphoria since early days, are very effeminate gay male. I know one. Different from the hetero with fetish of today.

There's some level of irony in a guy deciding he's a lesbian because he relates to a subreddit filled with guys pretending to be lesbians.

[–]yousaythosethingsFind and Replace "gatekeeping" with "having boundaries" 16 insightful - 10 fun16 insightful - 9 fun17 insightful - 10 fun -  (0 children)

It's gone beyond irony to actually being straightforward. He sees other men acting just like him and role-playing as lesbians and thinks "wow this is just like me" because he's a guy who wants to role-play as a lesbian. Whereas actual lesbians visit AL and think "what fresh hellscape is this?"

I find the Transbian circle jerk on /r ActualLesbians and LesbianActually to be really funny. Like they truly don't understand that the more they fill a space, the more they drive lesbians away. At some point women are gonna get tired of their constant need for validation and sucking up all the oxygen in the room with their twans shit. They destroy the very spaces they most want access for their validation, but women will keep remaking their spaces away from them.

When they get done transing every single L/G/B subreddit, I've got an entire case of popcorn ready (don't zone out and randomly click on shit at 3 am on Amazon, kids) for when they start up the circular firing squad and start prosecuting each other for wrong think because they're stuck with each other.

[–][deleted] 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I think it's possible they'll just become the main voices for any lesbian narrative in media. Like Contrapoints and his male partner, and his "coming out" as a lesbian.

I don't think they'd stop even if they were only around each other. It seems like women are an idea in their heads, so communities of only women are just as fantastical and up for grabs.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Wait really? I though contrapoints did a whole video on compulsory heterosexuality? So she's not a lesbian then???? Her mannerisms scream gay guy to me so I was surprised when the comp het video came out. Also I related to none of it and was very confused about what she was saying lol.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

From what I understand he is / was with another transwoman. So a gay male relationship for sure, but it's "lesbian" by his standards.

[–]supersmokio6420 16 insightful - 6 fun16 insightful - 5 fun17 insightful - 6 fun -  (13 children)

If you check his profile on reddit, he's a PC gamer into grand strategy games, D&D, Dragonball Z, anime and hentai. Interests that just scream girl.

What's also sad is that way back he'd posted a picture with a girlfriend, who looked nice and normal no less. Now he prefers wearing panties and being called Mommy

I’m dying to know why the more obviously trans they are, the more likely they are to wear fake glasses. Large fake glasses are pretty much a transwoman cliche.

He looks like a greasy metalhead who let his little sister put makeup on him. 😂

I wonder how long it would have taken Hitchcock to come up with some movie ideas based on what we're witnessing.

Psycho was the first movie featuring a transvestite. The protagonist loved his mother so much, he started to wanting to look like her after she died.These people get so turned on by femaleness and lesbianism, they want to look like females themselves.

[–]wafflegaffWoman. SuperBi. 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I never did want to watch Psycho, and this pretty much explains it.

It was a masterpiece that changed cinema forever.

Yes, fortunately one can be aware of that without having to watch it.

[–]ChunkeeguyTeam T*RF Fuck Yeah[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Psycho must be due to be cancelled any day, surely

[–]ChunkeeguyTeam T*RF Fuck Yeah[S] 8 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Not long but if he were making movies today he'd be cancelled and transbanned in no time.

Omfg, he can’t even spell. Veins are what are in bodies. Vain is what he is.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

But is there not any self doubt with these types? Surely, they would have some inkling that they are just into lesbians and aren't women themselves... like most straight men.

Basically the guy version of the fujoshi's on tumblr who have an unhealthy obsession with yaoi and gay guys. His posts are basically gaming, hentai, anime. What else can I say.

So this is proof. Reddit makes you gay. Reddit has the power to even turn a straight man into a muff-diving lesbian!

And yet I bet he’s still one of those guys who thinks it’s a chore and foreplay to eat a woman out, assuming he’s not the virgin he definitely is.

Going down on a woman would probably "trigger" his "dysphoria."

But that will make someone else feel good, not them!

Yep because everything in their lives can be categorized into giving them euphoria or dysphoria. It either gives them a boner or doesn't give them a boner they feel entitled to.

Difficult to realize you were gay, when you're actually straight. The delusion

"We lived 2 years together as straight, we got a kid, and now my husband is wearing dress, so I am lesbian". When your orientation is based not on what and who you like, but on what someone else thinks of you. Amazing terms juggling.

So what happened in the four years between??? Was this person actually diagnosed via a therapist or professional as being trans? I have met people who are trans and they lived the majority of their lives as the sex they were born, and had decades of therapy and a diagnosis long before they ever made the choice to take hormones or have any surgery at all. This is not happening with children or teens, or very young adults.

I also know girls and boys who I grew up with who when they were children imitated the opposite sex by putting on clothes for the opposite sex, boys putting on makeup or nail polish, or even said aloud how they wanted to be the opposite sex or wondered what it would be like to have the genitals and body of the opposite sex. None of these children, now adults are trans at all.

I met a,man in the early 1990s who called himself queer and a 'male lesbian' because he would cheat on his wife with multiple women some who were prostitutes. :(

Some people have real gender dysphoria and have the right to be respected for that , but some just Jump on the trans trend claiming high and low they are , but when the trend is over they suddenly are not trans , and that’s the problem really
