Transition as Treatment: The Best Studies Show the Worst Outcomes

Maly_Querent · 2020-08-01T10:10:27+00:00

My only problem with this article is that the writer is a pastor. Clearly shows that his stance is one of "nature=god=order" vs "man-made=satan=chaos." It just seems heavily disengenious to me. Like, i honestly believe that transsexuality isn't wrong, but the reasons why people do it, is questionable--at least to me. Religious people, at least seemingly, always have this "it's not 'natural,' therefore 'wrong'," mentality, which i feel limited and incorrect.

Maly_Querent · 2020-08-01T04:21:11+00:00

That is an interesting observation

You do know that the babylon bee is a satire site, right?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-29T05:54:03+00:00

So, the studies are categoriezed by positive, negative, meta, and inconclusive. Not all of those articles prove your point. In fact, many of them are negative and inconclusive.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-29T02:41:19+00:00

Who funded the studies? Where did you learn about them? Have you yourself read the papers you are referencing?

There is no evidence the drug can fight the virus, and regulators warn it may cause heart problems. Last month, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cautioned against the use of the drug for treatment of the coronavirus , following reports of "serious heart rhythm problems" and other health issues. Last month, the FDA revoked its emergency-use authorisation for the drug to treat Covid-19. The World Health Organization (WHO) says "there is currently no proof" that it is effective as a treatment or prevents Covid-19.

On its face, it was a major finding: Antimalarial drugs touted by the White House as possible COVID-19 treatments looked to be not just ineffective, but downright deadly.

Please stop spreading misinformation. Or don't. If people like you keep believing dangerous lies, then maybe we won't have to deal with people like you in the future. Darwin Awards for everyone!

It's a hoax. It isn't censorship when people who know better and understand more have already disproven it. It's a lie. Why let a lie spread?

The german company that extracts lithium from australia for musk, is the one that got the deal in bolivia. After that, musk's stock rises.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-26T18:01:07+00:00

Uhhhh... where does ot say that ALL THEIR ISSUES are caused by external forces? If anything, it's internal forces who crave money and power and who sell them selves to Western companies to gain that. Like, do you know NOTHING of history and how the US has actively been staging coups in the Latin Americas since the Socialist President of Chile. As is the case with Bolivia now.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-25T21:56:13+00:00

What in the actual fuck? This is so depressing. People claim that imperialism is over, but here it is.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-25T00:13:57+00:00

All of these people are AGPs who fetishize pregancy and who then obsess about periods as a result. How utterly disgusting that they still tie the mysogynistic concept that women are for breeding into their fucking mirror-world delusions.

I mean like, i think that's the thing. It seems to me as if you are misinterpreting Lorde's definition of the erotic. Like, to her, it isn't inherently sexual. The erotic can be anything that brings intense satisfaction and pleasure. Lorde's example is of breaking a capsule of yellow dye and mixing it in with margarine. There's nothing inherently sexual about kneading margarine, but the intimacy and satisfaction of the product that you helped create, is still erotic.

There's a difderence, but because we are ruled by the pornographic, all we see imtimacy as, is an extension of sex and sexuality. This then limits what we percive as pleasurable and limits us to seeking sexual encounters as the only means of fulfilling much needed intimacy and satisfaction.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-23T22:37:52+00:00

Porn is such a pervasive discourse. It has managed to sneak by unnoticed mainly because of all the shame centered around sex and sexuality. I wonder what sort of counter narrative can be created to fight the wave of pornsickness?

I keep thinking of Audre Lorde's Uses of the Erotic, which I think is just beautiful.

https://youtu.be/aWmq9gw4Rq0

Maybe there is a way to create stories that center the erotic as seperate of the pornigraphic...

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-23T22:26:35+00:00

In other words: i want a human doll that will fulfill this narrow role for my self-lesbian fetish.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-22T00:38:44+00:00

Well, as someone who also has fluctuation emotional moods due primarily to a bipolar disorder, i find i have to be more intentional and aware of what places me in emotional distress. You just have to pay attention to yourself and what causes your emotions to shift. Try to accept your menatal state, so you are working with yourself and your emotions and not against them.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-21T21:33:34+00:00

You do know that evolutionary and biological anthropology is a thing, right?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-21T20:51:54+00:00

It's not a failure. It's just been co-opted by mass mainstream media and consumerism.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-21T10:10:08+00:00

I mean, this is totally internalized misogynoir. I mean, how can this girl think she is above cultural perceptions of black people, just because she supports TW?

I honestly think it's fucked up, knowing that black women are socially and medically dismissed at higher rates than any other demographic, that black trans women and their experiences get to dominate, dictate, and speak for this oppressed group. Its even more shady considering that the black community has that "support our men, elevate our race" mentality. I mean, centering black tw is literally just an extension of that mentality which asks black women to keep their head down and their mouths shut in order to ensure that black men can assimilate into mainstream notions of success.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-20T23:29:43+00:00

Honestly, no. Like, the style came from the music. It's a scene, not a fashion sense. Like, the most people can be is posers and fuck those fakers.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-20T01:48:23+00:00

While bias is unavoidable, there are some sources that are more credible, factual, verifiable. Not all knowledge is created equally and a critical approach is neccessary to avoid the spread of misinformation. The more people recognize that there are tools available to help them make an informed and accurate assesment, the more people will elevate discourse and community engagement on a social level.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-19T18:44:35+00:00

No. They are a proven hoax.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-19T05:18:17+00:00

That was one of the most gloriously magnificent things i have ever seen in my life

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-19T05:05:10+00:00

That is beyond fucked up. I hate how racism always goes unspoken about in feminist circles. Like, fuck that. We just had mass protests. It's about fucking time people started calling that shit out. Just because you are a woman, does not mean you get a free pass on racist bs.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-18T19:18:16+00:00

I mean, that's the internet in a nutshell, no?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T23:15:38+00:00

"Speggs" 😂 that's funny

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T17:46:00+00:00

I agree with the whole "more interested in being validated as a woman than finding a partner with mutual attraction" thing. It's as if their whole life their main objective is to be seen as women. They don't care about women, just for passing as one. Like, they will literally take anything that is "female" like jobs, titles, positions, you name it. If all they want is validation, all they will do is change the world so that they can accomplish that goal. I hate this world so much...

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T04:19:09+00:00

Isn't that what you've been doing this whole time? Do you really lack that much self awareness? Wouldn't you be "woman" by your own definition?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T04:14:19+00:00

Lol i don't wear make up. I think it's stupid, but I wouldn't deride any woman--or man, for that matter--for wanting tonwear make up.

I mean, dude. Again, i don't know what your cultural background is, but I know what discipline is. Maybe not in the way you envision it, but i have dedicated my self to my work in an idealistic manner.

Again, i think you have limited experience and that you willingly limit yourself with your shallowness. I'm sorry you keep disappointing yourself, but you're very prejudiced, so I'm not surprised. I'm not attacking you btw it's just what I've noticed from the stuff you post.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T04:05:49+00:00

Dude, there is nothing wrong with being gay 🤷‍♀️ i wasn't attacking you. I was legitimately asking. You just really prefer the homosocial, then, right?

And also, I'm not clicking on that biased junk science. Like, bitter men creating narratives of women in order to assuage their misplaced self hatred, is not entertaining to me.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T03:50:35+00:00

Are you like repressed gay, or are you really just that shallow? Did you ever consider that you attract shallow women because you're a shallow man?

Ok. Male disposability. I see where your grief is coming from. This is tied with your previous post about military dudes or whatever. But like, i think you are from a very specific enviornment which pushes a specific narrative. I mean, I'm not saying your grief isn't serious, but the world is deeper than what you know.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T03:41:08+00:00

I don't find that romantic either. I'm a self sufficent woman who is just struggling like the next guy. I aim for equality in all things. And i do mean all things.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T03:35:29+00:00

Dude, I'm a woman. Not a man. And i have never lived the life you project as the gold standard of womanhood.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T02:56:16+00:00

Fuck yes! I recently got back into MM like a year ago and I'm just so taken by how relevant his stuff still is. His newer stuff is waaaaay lame though, so i feel like he lost me.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-17T02:50:24+00:00

Man, dude. I don't know what kind of women you know, but that is not true for ALL women. I know you're bitter, but making all these sweeping statements is literally one-dimensional and boring. Like, geeze. It's so dumb how there are some women who also hate men as much as you hate women. And it's just so retarded. Hate and anger isn't going to change shit. You must have been a nice guy who was just nice to the wrong people, but why perpetuate the cycle?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-16T22:45:13+00:00

Oh, 100% agree. I can't wait for this to become public scandal and entice mob outrage.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-16T20:39:43+00:00

Yes because women run the gonerment and own all the companies that fight for resources. Like, dude, c'mon! 🤦‍♀️

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-16T20:35:09+00:00

I was agreeing with you. The mentality to feel as if you need to dehumanize a person in order to "get ahead" is bad. But that's what you do with women, so you're a hypocrite 🤷‍♀️

You can talk about it, but im going to tell you what i think. This isn't equality. If your momma hurt you growing up, you need to address those issues within yourself and stop projecting shit to people just because of one factor. You need to learn to relax, bro.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-16T20:30:10+00:00

So i did some digging and i found this website that provides a link to a pdf to the legal document: https://witnessla.com/new-lawsuit-tells-of-16-yr-old-boy-allegedly-forced-by-probation-officials-to-take-estrogen-as-medication-to-control-his-behavior/

I'm disgusted, scared, and betrayed. Los Angeles is a big pusher for trans ideology. The fact that there are experiments being done on teen boys in LA county is like so disgusting. It's like, let's experiment on the black and brown boys for the benefit of bourgeoisie and homophobic white people who have the money to transtrend their kids.

This is - D I S G U S T I N G -

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-16T19:47:07+00:00

Uhm... no. People who think this are insane. This isn't equality this is pettiness.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-15T06:28:36+00:00

It is as if i am being consumed by a quiet rage

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-15T06:25:57+00:00

Normally i hate commercials, but this was a surprising delight of morbidity

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-14T23:29:48+00:00

The ONLY significant result they had was that more gynephillic trans women get off on dressing as women than any other group.

That is so hilarious! Omg! Talk about not reading the material you're trying to use to disprove the opposite side. Like, can this guy put his foot any further up his ass?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-14T23:24:02+00:00

"autogynephilia" is a normal aspect of female sexuality (after HRT has been given)

Receipts, please? Because as a natal woman the only time i felt "turned on" by being a woman is in the privacy of my bedroom masturbating, thinking about how men want me. It's a total narcissistic fantasy and not one i indulge in often, because i recognize how stupid and gross it is to be turned on by male sexual objectification.

Or are you saying that your desire to be a "woman" stems from a narcissistic masturbatory phantasy in which you are sexually desired and validated by men?

Are you literally saying that you define "woman" as a machine used soley for sexual pleasure? Because if you are, you're clearly a conservative mysogynist.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-14T22:28:55+00:00

From the abstract:

"Conclusion Ultimately, this study found little evidence for the hypothesis that sexual behavior, sexual desire, and psychosexual experience differ substantially in gynephilic (exclusively gynephilic and bisexual) and androphilic trans women."

This doesn't disprove autogynephillia. Also, the research was conducted through a self-reporting online survey, which honestly leads to inconclusive results. Also, just because there is little evidence for the hypothesis that behavior, desire, and experience between gynophillic and androphillic tw differs, does not mean that getting turned on by thinking of oneself as a woman, is not a behavior of tw.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-14T18:52:49+00:00

I just think it's retarded that there are literally 12-30 year olds jacking off to anime and then identifying as girls. It's like, how do you not realize you're literally embracing delusion and fucking up people's lives because tou think you are entitled to always have what you want. Sheesh... like, talk about white male privilage

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-14T18:33:40+00:00

😂 ok, man... i mean all this just to come to the conclusion that your a gay man who loves ass

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-08T10:10:33+00:00

😂 wow what superb trolling

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-03T23:41:46+00:00

Amelia is pretty bad ass! I love the idea of promoting more female narratives than just centering men all the time. Like, beware of incel mentality, you know?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-03T17:52:33+00:00

The cringe on that... ugh.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-03T10:14:08+00:00

I don't act like garbage. I'm merely pointing out the garbage hypcrisy in the complaints of some users leveraged at others 🤷‍♀️

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-03T10:12:34+00:00

Tumblr is crap and only serves to promote some stupid pop culture ideal of feminism

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-02T18:37:04+00:00

You know what makes me laugh? All these guys complaining about Gender Critical, while there are literal users posting rape apologist bs. Seriously, like, it seems to me that men will never stop trying to "put women in their place," whether through sex or through "the rules."

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-02T18:22:54+00:00

"Lathe of Heaven" is amazing! I love the whole "dreams changing reality" thing. LeGuin, in general, is a fantastic writer.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T22:35:15+00:00

"Our community" if it was your community why didn't you address it with them first instead of demonizing on some seperate post? You're literally acting in bad faith.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T22:33:50+00:00

And trans rights activist should be allowed extrimist views which silence women and their experiences all so that some milquetaost incel bored to his balls can cosplay for validation? Pfffft! Go off, why don't 'cha?

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T22:31:56+00:00

It's not a series. These are individual stories with their own plot so you can begin wherever. "The word for earth is forest," was LeGuin's last book before she passed a couple years ago.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T22:29:06+00:00

The fact that you think women getting raped and forced to carry a baby to term is a positive when compared to ugly incels with no personality, is so damn gross. Jeeze. Get a life. Not having sex is not the end of the world, you basic sex-crazed monkey.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T22:25:44+00:00

Uhm let's see, i really love issac asimov's the foundation series. "The changling plague" by Syne Mitchell is also really good. I really enjoyed "dispossessed" "lethe(?)" and "the word for earth is forest" by ursula leguin uhm... octavia butler is cool, too. Kindred was cool, though that might be more speculative fiction than actual SF...

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T19:53:09+00:00

You know, when ever someone starts with, "i am not [x], you can trust me" they are more than likely lying. Also, you are posting a link from r/AgainstHateSubreddits which, i heard, was behind the push to ban GC in the first place. I'm sorry, but you must be a plant.

Maly_Querent · 2020-07-01T19:32:50+00:00

This looks like such an interesting documentary on British-specific radical feminism. Totally gonna save it to watch it later
