Trans acceptance will not be complete until trans people are ok with the idea of accepting whatever genitals they have.

It is so literally not a big deal.

This is what we call an echo chamber when you think this circular reasoning is air tight

There is a discord if you're interested! Indeed it's sad this place doesn't have the virve, vim, or vigor that the subreddit had, for obvious reasons - though I'm guessing things can go back to what it was like in the 70s/80s where generally people didn't really care all that much outside of a few edge case scenarios but generally fine in so much that you were just wanting to live your life / be respectful / not be overly disruptive, etc.

divingrightintowork · 2023-10-04T21:09:11+00:00

Oooooh whowherewhat - how is it going one day in?

divingrightintowork · 2023-10-03T03:45:24+00:00

Hah where did you confirm that? This thread or?

divingrightintowork · 2023-09-26T12:39:16+00:00

Is it Avril or the brunette?

They're both a little hard to tell. Avril has very defined male typical bone structure, but it all comes together in a kind of really pretty female ish way? Both of them have pretty female, typical voices, the brunette topically reads more female though?

He's actually quite intelligent. Relatively. It was at UC Berkeley. And I believe in a graduate program.

There was a recent article about how Northampton Massachusetts was the best rated place to be trans, but also the trans teams were the most miserable and rated worst on all mental health measures more or less.

divingrightintowork · 2023-09-20T03:54:11+00:00

Charitably, because They may sufficiently perform to your definition of that sex category. It's not often, but hey. Sometimes they actually kind of pass and you don't really have to think about it all that much as far as what pronouns to use

divingrightintowork · 2023-09-08T20:19:09+00:00

Thank you so much for beating me too! I'm so honored that other people carry the torch

John McWhorter would probably call these people the appointed, I believe - from his recent book

Is there a word for these kind of work games where you're basically just going to constantly be on a euphemism treadmill or some shifting identities Get to claim terms but it's not really clear who appoints them as able to claim them?

From a friend " everything about this case is insane, including that Canada overturned the dangerous offender designation for someone who literally raped a 13 year old in his recovery house while on probation.

I am fascinated that Patel was able to recognize Tom as a transwoman from having oral sex back in 2003. I wouldn't have thought anyone would have that kind of familiarity with neovaginas or transwomen back then"

You get a weird measure of protection by exactly conforming to the most monstrous stereotypes someone might dream up about someone of your category such that it’s awkward to accuse you of being what you in fact are

"'I was shocked and horrified,' Nila Almstrom, a parent of an LGBT student, said at a town hall meeting about the protest. "

I wonder how many "Parents of LGBT" 11 yr old students will, in 10 years, be parents of 'cishet' adults.

But also like, that's a whole lot of letters for one kid.

It's really good for like niche subjects that once upon a time may have had their own message boards, like "Culinary mold," "old sierra game lovers."

But when you realize that The state is intervening because of a single sex woman's spa, it makes sense!

I actually am okay having expansive and material definitions of woman, where there's generally context clues to tell you what the business is using.

Like let private businesses use whatever private language they want, and the market will sort things from there.

divingrightintowork · 2023-06-09T22:55:25+00:00

Fun fact, this is in the same neighborhood as q spa, which has a mixed sex woman's space.

Dick inversion is just expensive. Oris are not. Dicks arent' going to work great without testosterone presuming they're not on any other treatments to return / restore function. It's not perfect but generally tends to greatly reduce libido / function. You can also put them on E/P, which will impact things.

divingrightintowork · 2023-06-06T01:57:05+00:00

I think they should generally leave it at oriectomies - some women just happen to have very large clitorises otherwise.

I'm such a boomer and can't find out how to top level comment. Anyway, trans people have been living pretty open and out at places like Caltech, MIT, etc. And I know people who went there during that time, when I also knew trans people who are going there, somehow in the past 5 years, people I know who were there alongside out trans people, are now realizing that they're really trans, even though they're in there 30s, 40s, etc. They came Supportive families that really didn't give a fuck that they were polyamorous, gay, or whatever... But somehow it's only now that they realized that this was a thing they could do.

divingrightintowork · 2023-05-07T12:42:26+00:00

Here's one for "This never happens" - multiple women complain about a man staring at his children - center tells them to STFU - turns out he's a recent sex offender "the man in question has now been identified. He is convicted sex offender, Jeremy Melvin Carlson.

In 2019 Carlson was sentenced to 14 months imprisonment and two years on probation for sexual interference against a young person. He pleaded guilty to touching an 8-year-old girl for sexual purposes on numerous occasions between December 2015 and September 2016 while he was in a position of trust. Carlson admitted that he molested the girl’s genitals and touched her with his penis."
