As great as these developments are (especially from places like Sweden and Britain), I fear that these are temporary victories and they're preparing to send us 10 steps back in penance for this one step forward, like they always fucking do.

I don’t think so. I think people are starting to notice the ludicrous nature of the TG proposition.

Eddie Izzard was recently interviewed as to what he would do if he was elected to Parliament and had to sit next to Labour MP Rosie Duffield who has said she will never refer to him as “she/her”. His only argument was literally “current year”. And then, of course, he claims that there have been TG for thousands of years and that he “came out “ in 1985…which is a lie, he always said he was a transvestite. The whole time he sat there with his terrible blonde dye-job looking for all intents and purposes like a lipstick-wearing bulldog.

The fine line between comic genius and genuine madness, crossed once again.

Now that is very strange. We never hear of transvestites much anymore. Have they melded into tg?

Even something as simple as not conforming to gender stereotypes is considered under the trans umbrella now. It's pure insanity.

Yeah, they're very different things, right? Or are transvestites basically AGP?

[–]Vulptexghost fox girl ^w^ 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

A transvestite is someone who lives as a cross-dresser. So basically AGP.

No I think they’re different.

The transvestite’s erotic target is the clothing, the AGP’s erotic target is themselves as a woman.

Transvestitism was always a largely harmless, private kink. I think that transvestites have simply attached themselves to the TG movement because it allows them to practice their kink in public (which is disgusting and a breach of consent).

Grayson Perry, the transvestite artist, admitted that the reason he wore big, puffy dresses when he dressed up as “Claire” was to cover his erection.

Remember the old joke among sexologists? "Whats the difference between a transvestite and a transexual? About 5 years" AGPs typically start of wearing women's lingerie privately, or cross-dressing in clubs and night, and gradually progress as their addiction becomes harder to satiate. Notable YouTube examples include Jessie Gender, and Vera Wylde from Council of Geeks (had his own cross-dressing channel for a while before he decided to be an embittered, male-ragey she/they fulltime)

I don't think an AGP would become transsexual. If he did he would lose the sex drive that makes it exciting in the first place. That's why AGPs are always ugly hons. If they get any treatment at all it's just enough to get tits so they can play with them, allowing them to keep their male sex drive. Some are just born hons but you can still easily tell the difference between who's actually transitioned and who just dresses like a woman and masturbates to himself in the mirror.

Unfortunately you're not allowed to make this distinction anymore.

imagine electing someone so detached from reality to pass laws.

I don’t think he’s been selected to stand yet. Labour would be really stupid to select him to stand, but I wouldn’t put it past them, they’ve lost their minds over the past ten years.

I think it's mostly the slow mechanations of bureaucracy finally have come around to letting the good faith actors come round in countering the bad faith actors who have blindsided the system and been given free reign for years.

You can't adopt the same bad faith tactics to counter them because they'll simply turn around and claim victim hood. It's the playground bully who goes around harassing some kid to the point the kid (rightly) clocks the bully clean in the jaw, but the teacher can only see the violence and punish that, and not the constant stream of harassment which is carefully kept away from the authorities eyes.

This is no different. Very few people were aware at all of the issues surrounding transitions as the people who were promoting them were going about screaming transphobia and misinformation at anyone who would raise the concern with these sorts of procedures being promoted towards minors and the kind of online cult-like indoctrination that takes place. And they'd engage in bad faith attacks and goading of these people to provoke an inappropriate response have their voices removed from social media entirely. But it only works for a time. Normies realize they are all crazy and as they draw more attention to themselves the old arguments of "let them live their life how they want where is the harm" look more and more simplistic and unrealistic.

It doesn't even matter anymore. They've completely changed course and are now headed to leftistism but traditionalist instead of progressive. The swamp will be happy no matter who wins now.

I think that would be hard. Last time they did it by stealth: Quietly pushing their twisted world view into various institutions while the average person had no idea what it was about or what was happening. Now there's a backlash because people know what's going on. To turn that around they'd have to actually convince people they're right, which is going to be a lot harder.
