There's respect like two equals in a workplace keeping uncomfortable slurs and sexual comments out of the workplace and treating each other like human beings (like, the share your toys kindergarten level of respect) and then there's respect like your dad pulls out his belt and demands you show respect. This person is clearly using the second definition.

This person has no concept of two people being equal to one another and their whole idea of being respected involves domination.

Under the "admiration" concept of respect, the only people who would feel respect for veiled threats would be fascists or sociopaths. What a fucking psycho.

Trans people can get respect when they start respecting other people. Like women and LGB. I have absolutely no interest in respecting people who do not respect me.

When you try to hijack the history of another group's civil rights struggle and rewrite it to put yourself at the center, it says a lot about what kind of person you are.

God that was creepy. It felt very Borg-like, I was waiting for him to say "assimilate".

I'm not gonna respect you for doing this, but I may just fear you. That's what narcissists mean by "respect" anyway..

There are two types of respect—basic human decency and actual admiration for a person or a group of people. The former is a given—privacy, consent, politeness, and fair treatment of others. I don’t think there’s anyone here who doesn’t think trans people deserve that. The latter, however, is earned, not given. As far as I’m concerned, the trans community hasn’t done a blessed thing to deserve this second type of respect.

There is a problem though. The trans community has both neglected to afford the first type of respect to everyone else. Likewise, they have mistaken another phenomenon for respect. Forcing others to comply with your worldview out of fear is not respect, it’s bullying.

No :)

How do people live like this? He's so pathetic. I'd feel embarrassed if I were him.
