Lol "I look like a man and I feel like a cross dresser whilst crossdressing"

Of course the answer is 'dysphoria' .Any doubt or scepticism is 'dysphoria'. If you like how you look in women's clothing, it's proof you're a woman . If you don't like how you look in women's clothing, it's proof you're a woman.

The doctrine cannot fail, it can only be failed.

Pretty much nothing that comes out of the critical social justice fields is falsifiable, it’s why they elevated “lived experience” above data, and they write and publish autoethnographies (aka “Dear Diary…” journal entries).

Everything is asserted without anything that could be considered evidence in the way that we would expect in academic publications.

So these morons are just spouting the same kinds of logic that has filled academic journals for the past forty or fifty years.

and yet every other statement they make flatly contradicts the one they made yesterday--so it's not falsifiable, but has other epistemic messes

[–]ClassroomPast6178 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

so it's not falsifiable

Didn’t I say that, or did I mistype?

None of it is falsifiable, so should just be ignored. They don’t get to simply assert X and have it accepted as true.

[–]OuroborosTheory 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

oh yeah, but their assertions all contradict each other regardless of their non-falsifiability

like to the radfems 1. women being disadvantaged is patriarchy (duh), but 2. men being disadvantaged is also patriarchy ("it doesn't just hurt women! now sit down why I tell you your problems are all your fault, you unmanly whiner"), but 3. women being advantaged is--you guessed it ("they're just patronizing and infantilizing us!"); same with the demands huwites make more characters "of color" but also that huwites not write characters of color

basically each point is plausible (and as noted unfalsifiable) on its own, which is why the undergrads get so militant about it and why HR departments and campus administrators just cave to their demands

sometimes the hivemind does notice that they hate something that they demanded a few years earlier and forgot, like "womxn" or that Primos voice actress who was dragged for saying you didn't need to speak Spanish properly since it was a colonizerTM language

so it's an assemblage of unfalsifiable positions, AND they contradict each other independent of any standard of evidence: it's also why this "movement" gets diminishing returns: hey, they deleted the blackface eps of IASIP and 30 Rock, that means racism is over, right? eventually people just stop responding to the latest 20yo protesters

The problem is that they seem to think being a woman is defined by clothes.

I was just listening to a MtF on YouTube complaining about men who do drag. Basically saying crossdressing invalidates trans identity by faking it and causes "dysphoria". I was like ok you are right on the edge of understanding this.

the year is 2025: Trump got reelected and promptly motorboated a cross-dressing Rudy Giuliani: the hivemind of teenyboppers who just found out about an issue from their weirdest professor have decreed that drag and the word "trans" are transphobic

[–]Adventurous_Ad6212 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (6 children)

Yeah seriously. I can’t even define what a woman is can you?

[–]jet199 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

An adult human female

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

Why do we say human female and not female human? That would be like saying a "cat female" rather than female cat.

[–]jet199 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Adult feline female

[–]xoenix[S] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Oxford dictionary says "an adult female human" though. Now I suspect ideology in everything.

[–]LyingSpirit472 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Nah, considering how many trans women want to be a cute little anime catgirl, that's just encouraging them.

[–]LyingSpirit472 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

A woman is a female featherless biped.

This way, you give women the honor of being adult females, and give trans people the honor when Diogenes claims he's going to present you a woman and you show up and are surprised with a cock.

I'd feel uncomfortable wearing a dress in public, guess that makes me trans. Of course!

"Guys, I'm thinking of leaving the cult."

"No, you're still one of us!!!"

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

Pretty much this.

[–]hfxB0oyADon't piss on my head & tell me it's raining. 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

my brain is battling it out constantly - are you actually trans or just a very confused guy?

Wow, some sanity and it's not even Sunday!

Everyone in that thread should have their doors welded shut and have their internet access cut off.

[–]OuroborosTheory 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

strong "none of these words are in the Bible" moment

[–]QueenBread 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Again with the idea that woman = dresses and makeup. I now understand why it's so easy to trick a bull into fucking a plastic shape of a cow.

[–]Brewdabier 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Seek mental help, bio men do not wear woman's clothing.

[–]IkeConn 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I'm glad I'm not a queer.

[–]BluuDegenerate 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

And of course every reply is just pure doctrine and affirmation. Its disturbing that a grooming cult is allowed to just do whatever it wants and any criticism makes YOU the bad guy
