3rd wave feminism / intersectionality really is the root of all of this insanity. The concept of discussing how different forms of oppression stack is decent but it quickly devolved into seeing "points of oppression" as "oppression points". The first is discussing different ways a person is disadvantaged, the second is looking for ways to rack up a high score. On top of that, they see a high score as morally virtuous instead of a state of being. The higher your score the more virtue you have. All the invented identities are a way for normal or advantaged people to compete on the score. You get these types of people who stack up (trans & black & woman & lesbian & sex worker & poor & autistic) and they see it as a 7 hit combo in street fighter.

For straight people and young gays, I want people to know how nefarious some of this stuff is. Lots of the stuff in this article really makes me mad because it seems very innocuous but it's a very postmodern / 1984 thought control by manipulating language situation.

"Genders and Sexualities Alliances, or GSAs, were established as safe spaces for members of the LGBTQIA+ community, allies, and any individual to come together with the goals of ensuring inclusivity, safety, and support.

This is a bit infuriating because the GSA is supposed to be the "gay straight alliance". It's basically a club for making gay kids feel less depressed about being gay by bringing in straight kids and normalizing that friendship dichotomy. It is not sexual at all.

.

With their postmodern bullshit they are undefining and redefining the club into making it all about "genders and sexualities" which is implying it's cutting out straight people or trying to convince straight people that they have some obscure gender. There is also a bit of a secret push by these people to eliminate terms like gay and bisexual etc in order to fully eliminate the way people think about homosexuality as a sex based attraction. If you look over at the "LGBT" subreddit, their header is as follows:

A safe space for GSRM (Gender, Sexual, and Romantic Minority) folk to discuss their lives, issues, interests, and passions. LGBT is still a popular term used to discuss gender and sexual minorities

They are basically moving this new term GSRM to the front while trying to move LGBT to the back. Currently they are at the stage of referring to it as a "popular term" for the "real" term which completely removes the capacity to discuss or even think about homosexuality in terms of sexual dimorphism. This is truly in the style of 1984. To the new gays and straights not really paying attention, GSRM is fucking propaganda designed to change the way people think about sex and gender at the most root level.

.

To make it worse, they are talking to kids who are about to enter puberty and tell them that anyone uncomfortable with their body is trans. I dare say that most people are uncomfortable with puberty but you grow into it.

She told them that these new labels that they had just adopted made them more likely to commit suicide and talked to them extensively about suicide," she continued.

We have been hearing lots about the social contagion aspect of trans ideology among young girls but this type of "copycat" behavior also applies to other things like mass shootings and yes suicide. It's crazy that they are inventing labels for these children and trying to convince them that they fall under the labels and also now insisting that they are now at increased risk of suicide because of the label that was just forced onto them.

Was there ever an anti-LGB backlash to an ad campaign with similar consequences to the Bud Light fiasco? by JulienMayfair in LGBDropTheT

[–]Q-Continuum-kin 14 insightful - 1 fun14 insightful - 0 fun15 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Not in the same way. There was some consternation over a few ads that I can remember but it never turned into this huge cultural backlash. It was basically the religious right and fox news complaining that there were 2 dads in a commercial about a random product. Gays were not trying to gain acceptance through acting up in commercials. We basically made sexuality incidental to the person not the center stage. The commercials I can think of were selling a product and sometimes you would see a representation of a family and there happened to be what appeared to be 2 dads etc...

The bud light thing is different because they are taking a tiktoker and putting the celebrity as the spokesperson, center stage. So it's almost like they are selling Dylan mulveny as the product, not the beer.

Yes there are actually 2 points within the cis label. 1 is the fact that you are forced into the framework of that ideology where you must accept that gender identities exist in the first place. The other is that they do this weird thing where they find way to refer to transgender people as "man" or "woman" then otherize regular people as cisman or ciswoman.

They care more about the label of being "gay" than what their literal sexuality is. So it's a straight woman. Insists on being part of lgbtwtfbbq++++++ umbrella so claims to be a lesbian while having no attention to women. Then transitions and gets on testosterone which amps up her sexuality and now she can pretend to be gay while being heterosexual.

Men who transition later in life are usually autogynephiles. (AGP). Lots of these men have an extremely toxic and sexist view of women already, basically seeing women as sex objects. They are heterosexual and possibly porn obsessed. Somehow their sexual fetish for objectifying women migrates over to a sexual fetish of seeing themselves as the sex objet woman. This is why these people end up being the really creepy ones. They don't just want to be a woman, they get a sexual thrill by forcing other people to see them dressed up as a woman. They like to go on Reddit and talk about how they get erections by putting on female clothing then claiming to know women also get sexually aroused by putting on a dress.

The men and boys who transition early are usually the HSTS variety. (HomoSexualTransSexual). This seems to have a wider range of reasons. Some of them project a vibe of failed men because they are effeminate or just because they fail the gender role of "man" by not being attracted to women. This gender role failure is the reason this group fits into extremist religious right ideologies. Pat Robertson and Ayatollah Khameneh have weird alignment that "gay bad but trans ok" because being gay breaks gender but being trans fits into the culture.

Do you know any good trans people? Most that I know are anywhere from creepy (even though they are nice) to outright intrusive. by chris3991m in TumblrInAction

The most down to earth MtF i know fully understood how bad surgery was and could joke around a bit but eventually ghosted the group after demanding i apologize because i said "her" boyfriend was not straight. The other friend in the group would constantly fumble over pronouns but i would say "they" to avoid causing problems. It turns out he was apparently counting up every time i said "they" so whenever it got to the point that i refused to apologize for saying the boyfriend was "not straight" I got hit with the box full of "you never make a mistake and call me he so using they every time is even more transphobic".

Prior to that I knew 2 gay guys who were dating at university. One of them transitioned but they didn't break up. This MtF was always a bit irrational and would be sitting there normally then suddenly pop off over nothing. So this acquaintance didn't break up with the new MtF but i think once again it was another example where the MtF was mad that the guy wouldn't call himself straight. Eventually it caused a physical altercation and the MtF went after him with a knife in the dorms. The school did nothing about it so he got a restraining order and the MtF wasn't allowed in the same building as him. This is how i found out about it. I walked into the LGBT center and the newly hired ultra brainwormed staff were out loud discussing how bad they felt for the MtF and being critical of the guy for getting the police involved.

Prior to that a different gay friend hooked up with a FtM then jokingly said on social media that he finally lost his virginity. No mention of any names or anything. The FtM saw this and freaked out over the implication that this was heterosexual sex. That person ended up withdrawing from all classes and being put on suicide watch because she had sax with a guy and he later implied it was straight sex.

So for me it's just people freaking out over the gay vs straight labels even if they act reasonably otherwise (the first 2 weren't reasonable otherwise). The most recent was but then turned on a dime.

It's also overlooked that the overwhelming majority of parents want what's best for their children, like 99.9999%. Most of the parents going along with the trans stuff are doing it because they are being tricked by doctors saying things like "you can have a trans son or a dead daughter". They don't know anything about trans ideology beforehand and then freak out. A lot of those women saying the parents should not be informed are operating under that hyperbolic suicide narrative and think the parents are literally trying to kill the poor trans kids by disagreeing with the dogma.

If i remember correctly, they got banned at the same time they banned all the gender critical and radfem subs. Somehow they caved in to the backlash on that particular sub. Perhaps there was a particular admin who wanted to remove all wrongthink and tried to sneak that extra ban through but they got caught and had to undo it. I have a hard time believing that if all the admins came together and agreed to ban detrans that they would suddenly change their minds because people complained.

I'm going to invent a term here. Not sure if it's been used before but... Scientific and medical organizations are experiencing tautological capture. For anyone who has seen Idiocracy, it's exactly like the electrolytes conversion just here you have a politically correct position formed that "trans" is a marginalized community and needs special privileges. You get autistic screeching aimed at some marginal organization until they get nervous of offending HR somewhere and they change a definition. TRAs then point at the change in definition as proof that their bullshit is real and the next organization experiences autistic screeching while being pointed to the previous definition change until they flip and so on and so on.

The problem is that there is no starting point to the change in decisions other than "the science is settled". Why is the science settled? Because this organization said so. Why did they say so? Because the science is settled.

The homosexual variety self hating gays who saw themselves as failed men or bought into being called women by the standards of their patriarchal culture.

I mean it's always been obvious to me that if "gender" is defined as a social construct, then claiming transgenderism to be a biological condition is complete nonsense. It's right up there with them saying gender dysphoria is a physiological condition not psychological. That is the reasoning I was given why changing the body "makes sense" for a psychological condition. Just claim it's fully physiological in that the body is wrong.

I was getting spam pinged about pride so i looked what the alerts were and found these posts. Looking now i do not have the ability to use any of their voice chats even though i used to and the best i can tell is that it's because i haven't gone through and done my introduction post to add my pronouns etc. I just glanced through and there are 5 text channels. 2 of them are dedicated to "TGX" shit, i guess that's the new term, while there are ZERO channels dedicated to any LGB topics. I am going to guess if i said something they would say to use the "General" chat. Mind you, this server is specifically called "GAYMERS", not LGBT whatever.

A number of people are attempting to change their race by watching certain videos, hoping to manifest physical change. “They have convinced themselves it works because there’s other people who have convinced themselves, as well,” says a media professor. by xoenix in TumblrInAction

Experts agree race is not genetic. But they contend that even though race is a cultural construct, it is impossible to change your race because of the systemic inequalities inherent to being born into a certain race.

They are trying so hard to not arrive at the logical conclusion of "race is not genetic".

Tiq Milan, a Black transgender activist and writer, said it is a disservice to transgender people to compare the two. Race historically emerged as a social construct to establish a racial hierarchy with the white race at the top, whereas variances in gender identity have existed for thousands of years, he said.

You can literally determine a person's sex thousands of years after they die by looking at their skeleton.

My perception of this is that unnatural colors give a perception of detaching the person from nature. This is especially true for blue hair because it's so detached from appearing human or natural. It's perhaps a subconscious thing and somewhat related to how i observe "coming out" as gay vs as trans. Coming out as gay usually involves some kind of acceptance of yourself as you are where "coming out" as trans involves a full rejection of yourself as you are in place of an imagined avatar in your mind. It's almost a full rejection of biology and humanity itself. So many of them dive in with the very unflattering decorations on their body and I think it is like a full rejection of a human image so as to obscure their actual sex because they realize that they can't trick people into seeing them as the opposite sex. The unnatural colors are like a way to cope with an inability to force your human body to match the imagined avatar.

Just a bit of a theory.

Reddit wonders how to deal with "all gender" bathrooms at work by xoenix in TumblrInAction

People in the comments seem confused why so many companies have a separate men's room and an "all gender" room like it's an attack on women. It's literally their fault. These are generally buildings with preexisting bathrooms the so a policy comes through demanding they provide "all gender" bathrooms. They can either spend thousands renovating the men's rooms to be all stalls or just buy a $1 sign on Amazon and slap it over the women's room sign. Half the time the men's room only has 1 or 2 stalls.

It was really bad because they kept pretending he was a woman with no context and twitch chat had no chill. The camera would pan across the team and 50 people in chat would start going "no way that's a girl" and then it becomes a chain reaction.

There was a definition for this called circumgender. Basically it meant you wish you were born the opposite sex so that you could have transitioned to the same sex you are now but could be trans.

I'm 99.9% sure this was defined on urban dictionary at some point but when I go check now it says that word doesn't exist. Also if I Google "urban dictionary circumgender", I get redirected to the "cisgender" definition which seems really suspicious like AlQueerida got to them already. It seems like that time someone put a change . org petition up for LGB drop the T and Google decided to disappear that from the internet where you would not get a single result. Even if you googled the direct url to the petition it wouldn't give you a link in the results but instead put tons of pink news articles about how transphobic old gay civil rights leaders were.

Right now the only Google link that appears to reference what circumgender is comes from an "asexual" website where they're talking about "demisexuals" and they are discussing the dilemma that "demisexuals are under the trans umbrella so a female could be considered a type of transwomen." And that is apparently super problematic like those pesky circumgender jokes.

I like how the headline makes it sound like the bill was supposed to ban them from athletics but read for 5 seconds and it's just to ban them from competing on opposite sex teams.

There's actually an argument to be made that cross sex hormones are a form of steroid and legitimately you should consider banning them from all athletics. A FtM is unlikely to displace boys even when on testosterone but then if you put them back on the girls team yes they are juiced up.

Compilation of FBI (hate) crime statistics. by Q-Continuum-kin in LGBDropTheT

This is something i started a LONG time ago but i ended up spending lots of time back then figuring out a format to pull everything together so it could be shown in a reasonable way. Then sifting through the crime stats took some time and at that point i got that foundation ready and then put it aside forever. I have some free time this week and decided to pull these old files back up and here we are.

Originally i wanted to put this together because there was a constant "trans genocide" narrative and simultaneously a "cishet white males are oppressors" narrative. Keep that in mind and notice that gay men have been and are the most at risk group in the crime stats. One other thing is that i just finished this and i have not looked int other methodology of the stats. My initial suspicion is that much of the anti-(gender identity) stats are actually anti gay man stats being hidden by the self perception of the person who the crime was against. Like when you talk about a guy who might punch a "man in a dress", the assailant is doing it because "this guy is a fa***t" but the cops get called and the person is like "i got punched because transphobia."

Digging through the methodology might take some time but i am a bit over working on this for the time being as the data extraction process was a bit annoying.

Sit down, shut up and listen to the women - Gender Critical Feminists turn on male allies before they’ve even won the war. by ClassroomPast6178 in TumblrInAction

This isn't really true unless you consider feminism to be all the things that every person cumulatively refers to as feminism today. The radfems have always been anti-man and this exact reason is why they became the canary in the coal mine and then the front lines against TRAs. They are rooted in second wave feminism and are advocates for women's only spaces which was one of the core issues of the second wave. At the time there were often no bathrooms for women in public places and women who left the home were often harassed by men who treated them as sex objects.

The most toxic transgender people are the autogynephiles. They are sexually aroused by seeing themselves as their idea of an "ideal woman" which is basically just a mindless sex doll. These are still heterosexual men who are going to threaten women's privacy by gawking at them in the toilet with a weird sexual gaze. Radfems were second wave feminists who became rather extreme in their anti male bias and defense of women. They ended up slamming head first into the TRA autogynephiles a good decade or 2 before anyone else had caught on.

All the people today espousing 3rd and 4th wave feminist ideas are almost antithetical to what a 2nd wave feminist was fighting for and this part isn't really surprising because TRAs are best at parasitically stealing credibility from all other movements. Yes they stole terminology from intersex people and stole history from gays, but they also ran off with feminism. The AGPs in particular were obsessed with being feminists because it was another layer of being a "woman". This whole field of intersectionality is about proving how MtFs are even more important in feminism because they can layer all of these labels on top. They took the antimale terminology from 2nd wave and spun the exact same words to be about transgenderism.

The original study was published by Tavistock which should have been a dead giveaway from the beginning that it might be suspicious. Also if anyone says something about settled science then quotes WPATH as a source I take that with even less seriousness. They might have some accurate information but they are purely an activist organization and so everything that comes from that type of place is going to be spinning a narrative.

That's a good point about pharma but it only explains the public advertising part. The oldest argument I can remember was around 2000-2005 with some self described HIV advocate who argued against the concept of criminally charging people who knowingly have HIV but hide it from partners. I thought it was going to be "criminalization is too much" but nooo that person went all the way to the person should never need to tell anyone.

The argument was that requiring disclosure of HIV status would cause people to stop getting tested because they could get away with plausible deniability of not knowing since the criminality was centered around knowingly transmitting.

Most people who don't know about trans dogma actually do this. Like if you find a normie out there who doesn't really have an opinion on transgender people and has not had the dogma pushed onto him already, ask him to describe a transman and he will likely think "a man who is transgender ie a man who wants to transition to a woman." Only in this TRA echo chamber is the idea tossed around that the terms man and woman are derived from some nugget of extradimensional existence apart from the body.

I had a similar issue with being a science major in my last year. (Not obnoxious queer types but obnoxious lazy types). It's because my course load is so prerequisite heavy that it's almost impossible to take all the gen ed classes before the senior year. I asked around and found an English teacher who was some hippie ex-burnout who would make the class easy. All you had to do was pay attention and participate in her class and she would make the class easy.

The students were mostly art and gen ed majors and they were always bitching about the class and the teacher. This was the easiest and most chillaxed class I had taken at school. The teacher was 5 minutes late once and that one corner of students is trying to organize a full walkout "if we all leave she can't say anything". I just shut it down instantly saying i wasn't leaving since I need the class to finish my GenEd requirements. The look on her face was funny as hell.

He's clearly doing something similar to "ban evading" in online communities but it's still on the school for not outright banning him. They basically tried to ghost him by not rehiring because no one wanted to explicitly ban him from working there. Then he changed his name to sneak back in so his motivations are clearly slimy but also not really illegal. The school couldn't even bring themselves to fire him.

When I was in school, not once did a PE teacher or coach come into the locker rooms to change while students were in there. Perhaps people on various sports teams have a different experience? The only time i remember an adult coming into the student changing area was when a kid slipped in the shower the teacher came in and escorted him out and had him get dressed in private.

This guy is clearly getting a thrill out of forcing himself into their face. Zero reason to go change with the students. Zero reason to go into the bathroom and start talking to someone.

However, he did write that Brock resisted arrest - and that the force was justified. He said the encounter occurred when Brock fled from his vehicle after being pulled over for an air freshener he had illegally mounted on his rearview mirror.

I hope this post is meant to show that the cop was a psycho violent snowflake in this situation. There's absolutely no chance the stop had anything to do with the "illegal air freshener". The bitch ass got flipped off then went into a rage and nearly killed someone because a person didn't kiss his ass. Nothing to do with the victim being transgender, the cop is a violent thug who deserves to be in jail for assault.

Perhaps someone from the UK can explain, but i don't even understand how mermaids has the ability to try and use the court to revoke the charity status of a different organization. Courts in the US usually are obsessed about "standing". Basically the person bringing a case needs to prove they are harmed. The article here makes it appear that mermaids had no standing but the LGB alliance was still dragged through the courts.

I say the US courts "usually" care about standing because lately everything is being politicized and the SCOTUS just issued a ruling on student loans despite there being no standing. The claim of standing was on behalf of the student loan company which explicitly said it didn't want to be part of the case and somehow the court just allowed it. I guess standing is only an issue when the judges are ideologically opposed to the case.

I do appreciate that this student is a chemistry major. She's not in college to listen to pseudoscience about gendered souls.

I think they were about gaming but the genderwoo people always become the "power users" of the server. They will spend all day online and then sit there and start telling people they need rules and sections related to diversity etc. The people who own the server might just want to play games so the genderwoos get promoted to an admin to do all the clerical garbage that no one else wants to do.

I know on that particular server at least one of the admins is not trans. He's a gay guy but his career is based around this type of social justice DEI garbage so he's basically all-in on making everything about whatever the current trendy topic is around lgbtwtfbbq politics.

I think the difference there is that everyone knew gays existed and they weren't considered "crazy." For example the popular TV show in the 70s "Threes Company" had the premise that the landlord did not allow unmarried mixed sex roommates in his apartments. There were 3 women in this apartment and one moves out. This guy needed a room but the landlord didn't allow it so the guy pretends to be gay and he allows it. Gays certainly were not widely accepted but it wasn't like no one knew what they were.

Fast forward to 1991 and you get silence of the lambs and that seems like the only mainstream portrayal of a transexual that I can think of. They were also shown as sex workers in other contexts but I can't think of a sitcom which tried to portray them as common.

The big problem is that Title 9 keeps getting messed with. No one has changed the law but Obama, Trump, and Biden have kept putting out policies which say they will "interpret" Title 9 differently so schools freak out that they could be in violation of Title 9. The craziest part is that each interpretation is POLAR OPPOSITE of the other. The law was literally written to give protection based on "sex" and it says so in the law very clearly. No one ever had any confusion on what the law said until Obama came along and said they were going to interpret the law to mean the exact opposite of what it says. At this point we really need the supreme court to come in and say "you can't interpret the law to mean the exact opposite of what it says."

TLDR --- I ran into something similar some years ago when i had to grade exams as a grad student proctor. We had an issue where student athletes were being given crazy favoritism and privileges. It wasn't race based but a way to protect their sports team from having mass expulsion.

Long:

What ended up happening is we caught kids in the athletics program cheating in a very easy elective science class final. This class was designed for this exact type of person so they could get their required science credits with little effort. They got the final exam on day 1 of the semester. It was basically "you will learn about 100 things over the semester and on the final you need to come in and write down 10 of them." On the final we hand each person 10 blank sheets to fill out. In our department we proctors generally treated all the students as adults and gave them the benefit of the doubt around seating and using the toilet. This final starts and all the athletics students take seats at one table way up top and in the middle where it wasn't easy to access. At some point the proctors started to notice that group acting suspicious. They were basically writing up one section on the paper then sliding papers around and answering each other's tests. We decided to split up the group as we caught it but they all refused to move and it was starting to cause a scene. We ended up opting not to cause a scene so we just watched them. What they actually did was each wrote their name on 10 pages then they all swapped pages at the beginning so they would answer the same question over and over with different names. And you wouldn't notice because they only did the paper shuffle at the beginning. And you would never think of checking all 10 pages they hand in for the same name.

At the end they were coming up and started fanning out their stacks and sliding them into the piles of exams but between all of the proctors we were able to figure out all the names. It was easier because if one of them placed the papers into a pile we might get a list of 10 names. The professor and i think the department was totally on our side but the university itself stepped in and blocked us from failing the students. Basically they were looking at the idea of expelling multiple sports teams all at once and they took the power away from us to do anything about it.

If this happened to me today i might have been tempted to leak the information. At the time i actually believed them when the university claimed they were going to discipline the athletes internally & i actually was like "yeah we don't want to create a scandal for our school." Now I would say fuck this corrupt institution.

It's so weird that these people WANT periods. My whole life it seemed universally known that women hated periods both because of sanitation and cramps and "PMS". Then these people are talking about being jealous of periods or pretending to have them.
