A person I loved dearly recently came out as trans and I don't know what to say to him. by saragini in GenderCritical

[–]marmalade 29 insightful - 1 fun29 insightful - 0 fun30 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

You should absolutely stop interacting with this person as much as possible, and tell your mother that he makes you feel uncomfortable. I don't know your relationship with her, but I personally would be concerned about a grown man, anyone really, doing these things around my children. His behavior is alarming and unacceptable, and his mental issues are no excuse for it especially if your mother also knows about it. Please keep yourself safe, do not go out with this man alone or with your sisters, as he is using you vicariously to get his fix. He may seem happier now, but this is the commonly observed honeymoon phase and sooner than later he will crave more attention and persue even more extreme behavior. If he chooses to dress the way he does, that is his business and he should not involve you and use you and your sisters as fuel for his 'euphoria.'

I know they're you're close friends, but if they go out of their way to single you out for your views like this and make you feel bad, they must not care very much about you as a person. You don't have to accept their worldview just because they want you to, and you don't have to feel guilty about your views. You've never denied that nonbinary and trans people aren't worthy of human and civil rights, right (most of us don't, but that fact seems to have short legs)? Maybe just set some boundaries about what you will and won't talk about these friends with.

Am I the only one who *kind of* believes in transsexualism as a valid thing? by gencritcurious in GenderCritical

[–]marmalade 51 insightful - 2 fun51 insightful - 1 fun52 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

No, men cannot become women, and transwomen do not belong in women only spaces. There are no genders, there are two sexes that humans can be. A man with plastic surgery and a surgically created wound is noy the same as a woman. They should be treated with respect and compassion, but they are not women and they do not share in or care about womens' struggles. We do not have the same struggles. The terms 'neo-female/male' are insidious and inaccurate.

I thought you were going to make a point about old school transsexualism, not this nonsense.

Really, all this is very elaborate and just makes me wonder what your answer is for the distinct lack of historical or contemporary examples of TIMs standing up for the rights of women, if they supposedly 'are women.'

I think what 'woke' people don't understand is that the word 'prostitute' is not a value judgement against the person(s) being prostituted, but rather calling out those who are exploiting them. Technically, 'sex worker' as a term applies to pimps and other exploiters, and that's a feature, not a bug.
