I think there are certainly other transsexuals out there interested in an honest discussion, however the trenders and non-binaries? Not so much.

Gotcha, that's good to know. I have seen a few over on s/GCdebatesQT as well.

This is a lifestyle choice and I don't need any new rights, only the same rights as anyone else and the right to not be persecuted or discriminated against because of my transsexual status in employment and other areas. Laws should not be put in place to make a world which triggers my dysphoria in the least possible way because my dysphoria is my own responsibility, I genuinely just want to be left alone.

Well, that's pretty clear-cut and consistent, fair enough.

Like I said, I am ultimately against trans ideology in any form, and a lot of other people here are as well. (I think it's roughly 50/50 or maybe 33/67 between pro-transsexual and anti-transsexual, on this sub.) So you might get some pushback here, fair warning. I respect your coming onto this sub to engage in dialogue, though, that's really the only way to move forward. Maybe I will see you around. :)

edit: Also I very much agree @ kids being a big driver of discussion about transgenderism. Reading about all of this has made me way more of a proponent of putting limits/controls on how much internet access kids have... simply from a safety perspective, it's a massively neglected topic.
