GC: What do you think about the concept of peaking people?

questioningtw · 2021-11-02T15:30:55+00:00

Did you end up asking him?

questioningtw · 2021-10-05T16:15:56+00:00

Congratulations on your baby!

I am reading a Stephan King book called the Institute; and just rewatched Star Trek Voyager.

I am having fun taking an Anatomy class at school, but other then that nothing much.

questioningtw · 2021-10-05T15:31:56+00:00

You can ask him if he has tried reading her mystery novels and see what he says. If he talks about how he know doesn't read any of her books, you can talk to him about how you feel.

questioningtw · 2021-10-05T15:16:31+00:00

Exactly. Most people take people at their word and if they see say Blaire White as a woman, then they will treat her like one. But the aren't going to believe that she was always a woman or that she has a female body. Same with any trans person that is actally living as a man or woman. I don't believe for a second though that anyone actually thinks men get pregant or that there are genders like nonbinary or genderfluid but they don't want to appear mean so they don't say anything.

questioningtw · 2021-10-05T15:14:33+00:00

I peaked one of my close friends. I didn't really mean too, we were talking about Ellen Page and she thought it was ridiculous that everyone was acting like she was a guy all of a sudden, when before she was very outspoken about being a lesbian and a feminist. This person is not any kind of feminist really, nor is she super conservative: but she too thought it was stupid that Elllen Page went from being a woman to a man and overnight everyone just agreed.

questioningtw · 2021-08-06T15:55:59+00:00

IK went from being very pro trans to a trans medicalist to still being a trans medicalist--but leaning more and more GC. I hate how trans activists are hijacking medicine and getting people fired for simply stating wiomen are the ones that get pregnant. How JK Rowling and others are being treated is also a huge factor in becoming more GC.

questioningtw · 2021-08-06T15:54:25+00:00

I do think that Blaire White, Laverine Cox, Natalie Wyn, Lyn Conway; as well as Buck Angel and Kalvin Gararrah live their lives as women and men. Howeever, they are all male and female. It is impossible to change sex; and literally the only reason they are able to live as women and men is medicine.

questioningtw · 2021-08-06T00:56:33+00:00

For women gender nonconformity seems to be being assertive, brave, have intersts in things over people, not liking make up or dresses, having a goofy sense of humor; and for men I would say being nurturing, taking care of their appearance, being a people pleaser and caring about people over things. IK think in modern society though we are becoming less strict, and most people woulld probably not truely see someone as gender nonconforming unless they went out of their way to defy stereotypes.

questioningtw · 2021-08-06T00:41:08+00:00

Count me in as another he had no right being in the Olympics competing with women. He made the whole event about himself, and took away from the actual women who were competing. I was so glad that the winners said no comment when asked about him. I am tired of men being allowed to have their sports, while women are expected to deal with both women that want to play women's sports; but want to be non women. And with TIMS demanding the right to play with women, instead of men.

questioningtw · 2021-07-22T15:39:07+00:00

oh. well, I stand corrected!

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T17:38:07+00:00

People flying is impossible. However planes can make us travel through the air.

As of right now men can't get pregnant, and their are two sexes. it will be this way for a long time, and who knows if we will even survive long nough for mad scientists to try to make these things happen. Yes, i sad mad scientists, I am tired of technology that is just making us less human.

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T17:32:11+00:00

No....it wouldn't, it would be LIKE meat, but it would not be real meat.

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T17:22:55+00:00

So, basically we need to stop trusting anything then. if this was a hoax, then why where there a few people adament that it happened? Why would people make up a story like this for no reason?

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T17:21:31+00:00

So then are there a bunch of people that said their was a male in the dressing room for no reason? Sorry, I just don't believe that.

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T15:56:38+00:00

They could easily be saying that to try to cover their asses.

questioningtw · 2021-07-20T15:56:12+00:00

Don't you just LOVE modern media?

I am so tired of having to wonder if what I am reading from the news is even true anymore.

questioningtw · 2021-07-18T05:01:50+00:00

I just wanted to check over here and saw this! Happy birthday new GC debate sub, and I am glad it still exists!

I am pretty good;excited that I am going to be able to go back to school on campus! And yourself?

questioningtw · 2021-05-12T16:16:18+00:00

Do you think with the right kind of mental health care people wouldn't even need to transition? FTMS exist too, so it isn't all MTFS, or o you thik they transition for different reasons?

questioningtw · 2021-05-12T16:14:51+00:00

Yeah, your right.

questioningtw · 2021-05-12T16:14:27+00:00

Wow, really? I don't really know that much about Chelsea Manning, and am not really sure if she was right in what she did or wrong.

Eh. Mormons aren't as anti science as you would think, I think it is more Utah doesn't give two craps about being woke based one.

questioningtw · 2021-05-12T16:06:59+00:00

I have luckily never been raped, but have been sexually harassed and had men grope me. I think women are pretty much forced to compartmentalize. Like yes, I HATE those men, but I can't believe all men are like that.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T19:44:29+00:00

I owe you an apology. I misread what you said in your paragraph about the surgeries and hormones. I do think gender dysphoria is a type of disorder and people that suffer from it shouldn't be automatically labeled as freaks and predators because of it.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T15:36:17+00:00

I am finding it increasingly bizarre that a lot of progressives seem to just kind of excuse and dismiss bad behavior. Not all are like this of course, and i usually just see it online.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T15:34:16+00:00

Ok, but how are you going to gatekeep who uses the woman's room? If you didn't know these people where trans because of youtube, then you would jut see them as other women. Women can have masculine features, in fact there have been natal woman that have been kicked out of the woman's bathroom because they looked "too male"

I also highly disagree with you that Natalie Wynn looks like a man.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T15:22:39+00:00

Huh. you make a good point. I was more thinking of Renassaince Fairs where the swords are more just for looks. There is another female blacksmith I really like that actually makes the other stuff you mentioned.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T15:16:53+00:00

I hate that too, and I wish more people would call that out, rape and pedophillia are serious crimes and spewing accusations without any evidence IS being hateful.

I also really don't like it when a few of the posters act lik literally all men are horrible. It is like really? How is that any better then MGTOW who act like all women are evil, because they met some shitty women. I know paterarchy exists, but not all men are horrible.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T00:40:33+00:00

This sounds awesome! If it is still going on let me know!

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T00:22:53+00:00

Utah.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T00:22:35+00:00

I think things like temperment tend to be nature rather then nurture. I have noticed that when I am on anti depressants I am way more cool and collected.

questioningtw · 2021-05-10T00:20:54+00:00

I do too. I have been downvoted myself for saying that I have no problem with transwomen like Blair White or Natalie Wynn using the women's bathroom, and in fact I think it is pretty shitty telling people that look exactly like women to use the mens.

questioningtw · 2021-05-09T16:48:24+00:00

Mine just asked if I was male or female.

questioningtw · 2021-05-09T16:45:31+00:00

There is this transwoman that is a blacksmith that I really like, because she makes a lot of really cool swords and actually seems like a nice person. I also admire trans people that are more gc leaning, and there are a suprising number of them that are.

questioningtw · 2021-05-09T16:42:49+00:00

I have noticed this too. I don't like GC people that act like literally all lesbian transwomen are perverted fetishists, even if they seem normal. Itis one thing to call out people like Yaviv or Karen White, but acting like all of them are like that is wrong. Usually the more gender non conforming ones are rightfully concerned about how society tries to push this idea that feminine means woman or masculine means man.

questioningtw · 2021-05-08T16:01:13+00:00

It was informative, and it kind of reinforced my view that masculine and feminine are very, very much social constructs and I hate how almost backwards we are going in terms of thinking what is masculine and feminine. I also greatly dislke when men are into baking, sewing, dance, ect they get to be serious about it, while women are just kind of expected to be domestic:( I really like cooking and baking too!

questioningtw · 2021-05-08T15:52:36+00:00

I usualy try to be stoic, but often fail at it! I wonder if it is because I suffer from clinical depression though.

questioningtw · 2021-05-08T15:47:02+00:00

I love the song! It is pretty depressing how backwards we have gone, the comments on the youtube video are actually calling the lyrics transphobic:/ It is almost like these people don't realize that people have personalities with all sorts of traits, and while a lot of conservative people wanted to keep men and women in boxes, no one thought feminine men where women, or masculine women where men.

questioningtw · 2021-05-08T15:42:38+00:00

At least some of the regulars are still around! I remember when someone posted a genderdifficult board, but sadly I don't think it ever took off!

questioningtw · 2021-05-08T15:39:09+00:00

No problem! She has a pretty cool youtube channel where she welds art! Welding is a lot of fun, it is pretty much sewing with fire:) I would love to take woodworking too, and glass blowing!

questioningtw · 2021-05-06T20:59:54+00:00

I will never understand how this isn't peaking even more people.

questioningtw · 2021-05-04T23:21:31+00:00

How do all these trans people remember being a toddler so clearly? I have like one or two vague memories from being a toddler and it was stuff like, wearing waterwings in a pool and being in the back of a truck. Also, how was she even able to play all those female characters if she was really a guy this whole time. And sorry El, but what music you listen to, how you drink and sit have nothing to do with being a boy.

questioningtw · 2021-05-04T23:13:34+00:00

Hmmmmmm, There is a woman named Barbie the Welder and I kind of relate to her a lot, I really love welding and making art, and she is somewhat androgynous looking and acting!

questioningtw · 2021-05-04T22:56:37+00:00

Hi! I decided to come back over here. I miss Snarky too along with MrFahrenheit. It still makes me mad that the subbreddit was banned when we had so many interesting people. I hope Snarky is ok because that situation was really scary.

questioningtw · 2021-05-04T22:41:02+00:00

Hoestly? I do feel like I am lying to myself if i where to call Blaire White or Laverine Cox he or Chaz Bono Buck Angel she, just because they ARE living as women and a men, even though they where male and female before. I guess, I really just don't like extreme thinking, and I do think if someone actually transitions and is not just someone with a fetish, then their wishes should be honored. I know this is not what most GC people think.

questioningtw · 2021-05-04T19:18:23+00:00

I am very pro gatekeeping, and honestly, I think the only way transitioning can be fully ethical is to have it. I don't agree with this idea that everything should be ok as long as you have the money. Transitioning should be seen as serious, and if someone wants to go through with it, they have to show that they are mentally healthy and actually need it.

questioningtw · 2021-02-01T18:45:25+00:00

so she is being selfish then. There is no reason she can't play in the mixed league.

questioningtw · 2021-01-28T18:39:55+00:00

Since she doesn't even want to be a woman why is she even playing on the women's team? This is why I honestly think a lot of trans people are narcissistic. If she is taking T, she has zero business playing with the girls and should try out for the boys team. And if she can't make the boys team....well that is too damn bad. They have the audacity to call us entitled when they pull stunts like this. I am honesty worried that women's sports are in danger thanks to stuff like this.

questioningtw · 2021-01-18T19:56:58+00:00

Apparently people are nothing more then huge gossips that talk about things that are none of their business too...and yes, I acknowledge that I am doing it too. I am just so sick of this let us pick a part anything girls do and talk about how wearing certain things makes them a girl or a boy!

People who were acting like she is trans should be ashamed of themselves.

questioningtw · 2020-12-22T00:50:20+00:00

They are just pretending to be obtuse, it is obvious why we don't like the word cis.

questioningtw · 2020-12-21T22:45:55+00:00

Right dude, because women being disappointed by her transitioning to a man and actual Nazi views are totally the same thing!

questioningtw · 2020-12-16T02:51:31+00:00

What gets me is how damn angry they get when you point out how damn sexist this is. Pink is completely forced on girls, and it is way worse now then when I" was younger...plenty of girls don't like skirts and short hair has nothing to do with gender.

questioningtw · 2020-12-12T02:31:28+00:00

Yeah this is a really, REALLY good point. Nursing is pretty damn female dominate, yet you would never hear a male nurse called feminine or …same with teaching.

questioningtw · 2020-12-11T23:00:15+00:00

Except it is the total opposite! She is the one that is wearing guyish clothes and saying this makes her a guy!

questioningtw · 2020-12-11T22:43:34+00:00

I am honestly bewildered that instead of mocking misogyny; Futrelle is mocking feminists. I am glad I stopped reading that site long ago.

questioningtw · 2020-12-07T18:09:31+00:00

Wasn't it Natalie Wynn that said that about adoptive parents vs parents? I feel the same way , and I noticed that trans people that are open about the fact that they used to live as men or are biological male or female hare way more well adjusted then the ones like Yaviv who are constantly talking about the female penis. I hope uterus transplants never become a thing; because of the reason you and others mentioned.

questioningtw · 2020-12-07T18:04:40+00:00

Um, I don't know, because throughout the animal kingdom the female gives birth and males produce sperm, there are literally no exceptions. I know this sounds condescending, but holy shit I am tired of post modernism. i can agree that trans people exist and should be able to transition. I can agree that after transitioning they pretty much are the other sex(but not completely) But I refuse to play along with this men can get pregnant crap! Males literally can't and it is insulting to my intelligence to pretend other wise.

Edited to add: if biology don't real then why do most trans people actually feel the need to transition? Chaz Bono obviously understoond you can't be a man while looking like a female, so he transitioned to looking as male as possible. Lyn Conway is a trans woman that is an engineer and she transitioned to look as female as possible. this whole sex is a social construct is one of the silliest things I have ever heard

questioningtw · 2020-12-07T18:01:17+00:00

it is interesting how Reddit, Twitter and Wikipedia are just so cowed into submission.

questioningtw · 2020-12-07T17:59:53+00:00

Apparently we really are growing into a world where people think anyone telling them what to do is wrong. i am so angry at people that refuse to wear masks or demand businesses stay open because their precious feelings.

I never saw that movie...but UGH!

I guess she was a man infiltrating a woman's sport in Whiplash!

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T21:39:57+00:00

It is why healthcare in the US is such a mess--people want both complete independence and get mad when doctors tell then what to do; then we wonder why everyone is so unhealthy and why drug use is such a big problem. l Doctors and nurses get mad at people wanting help, but not wanting to listen and insurance companies and drug companies pretty much just want money.

ETA: Anyone that sells their meds is a scumbag and I hate people like that /endrant.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T20:57:59+00:00

It was a difficult read; but I am glad I read it.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T20:50:30+00:00

I think I am so worked about this is because I have ADHD and was diagnosed through testing at age 12. There are people that get addicted to drugs like Adderall and Concerta because they say have ADHD by self diagnosis and get the doctors to give them meds they have no business having. Gatekeeping is a good thing that keeps this shit medical. Having these conditions whether it is being trans, having ADHD, depression ect isn't cool and edgy...they can actually make life difficult and people self diagnosing is not hamless.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T19:29:57+00:00

This is why I" refuse to say men become pregnant and have periods. When 99% of the people that do are women, that is pretty damn statistically significant,

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T19:28:40+00:00

I am going to go into work tomorrow and announce that I am transitiong and you are to now call me James. Not only that you have to pretend like Jacalyn never existed and that I have been a man this whole time. Somehow I don't think I would get the Ellen Page treatment=P I wish the wokesters would see this. The only reason people like the Warshoskis, Ellen Page and Bruce Jenner get the treatment they do is because they are famous.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T19:24:18+00:00

Because this is something I am loathe to say conservatives have a point on: the facts don't care about your feelings( They are totaly hypocrites on this, but I am going to ignore that for this) This over political correctness crap isn't about making people's lives better, it is about narcissism; and being obsessed with your feelings is a type of that. Ellen Page has a right to transition, but she has no right to force everyone to refer her as he and making eveyone immediately refer to her as Eliot. She has no right trying to make everyone forget that she once came out as a lesbian. She also has no right forcing the Umbrella Acadamy writers into making Vanya into a man. Bruce Jenner should have refused the woman of the year award.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T19:16:47+00:00

I feel it isn't a coincidence either. I am also more fine with Eliot Page transitioning because she(because as of right now she is still a she) is an adult. It is not hate speech to say that teenagers are too young to give consent.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T18:18:12+00:00

I have been seeing lots of trans people say Juno is about a pregnant trans boy and Kitty Pryde is now trans! Or her characters in Whiplash and Inception are trans! They also yell at lesbians and other gnc women that are disappointed and say wee are being disrespectful, when the reality is they are just happy that another woman is saying she is trans.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T18:02:02+00:00

I do wonder about that. I think this is why it rubbed me the wrong way too. If she were to be like, hey I know you know me as Ellen, but please accept that I am Elliot, I think it wouldn't have been so offputting. Instead it was almost like how dare you see me as a woman, even though you have known me all along as a woman! It is honestly creepy how everyone is not seeing how weird this is.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T17:58:44+00:00

I am fine with trans men and women in public positions. What bothered me about the whole Eliot Page thing was how it wad handled. Eliot Page was Ellen Page for a long time in the public eye and is still technically a woman. How can you even say your are a man, when you haven't even tried living as one yet? I also hated how everyone immediately switched pronouns and names; and it honestly reminded me of why I low key hate celebrities. No one else would be able to do that. The reason they got that treatment is because of their fame, not because people genuinely see them as a man.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T17:51:20+00:00

I agree that saying the Balkan Sworn Virgins are trans ids beyond offensive. And I also agree that there are way, way too many girls coming out as trans; actual transdgenderism is very rare. But, they do exist.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T17:48:24+00:00

They need to read the book. Reading it sort of made me realize why I get deeply annoyed with QT philosophy where gender is just some sort of game or personality type. This person literally couldn't live as a woman. And it wasn't because of gender stereotypes or anything(most of his friends where actually women even), he just really saw himself as a man and didn't understand why. It was a good book, but really depressing.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T17:38:30+00:00

I actually read the book "All He Wanted" by Aphrodite Jones; and there is no way he was was woman. He wasn't even like Buck Angel who lived as a lesbian for a while, he seemed to have extreme gender dysphoria. What was so depressing was in the book, he was actually diagnosed with GID and was supposed to have more therapy so he could get HRT, but for whatever reason decided to take off.

questioningtw · 2020-12-04T17:38:23+00:00

I am fairly GC and even I think Brendan Teena identified as a man and wanted to live as one. Unlike someone like James Barry who had every reason to disguise their sex because women weren't supposed to be doctors; there was literally no reason for him to live as a man like that. If you read the book the movie was based on, he was in complete denial that he was even female and would lie to everyone and tell them he had an intesexed condition when they got suspicious.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T18:01:35+00:00

Nope, is it SFW?

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T18:01:22+00:00

Do you think sometimes dysphoria can be from social pressures? I have seen questions on askfeminists ask that.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T17:43:10+00:00

I agree...the way she came out was really weird too, it felt like she was guilting people to basically accept her as a man who was always a man, when that is bullshit. She has been a female actor forever, and has been an out lesbian for a long time. Before yesterday her name WAS Ellen Page, Wikipedia rewriting her bio is frankly creepy. I am sorry, but I will never ever be one of those people that thinks just saying you are a man or woman makes you one. I also hate the deadname stuff....your past you was still the past you.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T17:38:20+00:00

Exactly., I feel like society is becoming more sexist honestly. I want to see more GNC women out there, not less.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T17:37:21+00:00

This! This is what bugs me. And also why this "you are so stunning and brave" sound so fake. So all these years saying she was a lesbian and playing women characters was a lie then? Why are you coming out with this NOW, when you already have a role as a woman on a tv show? I feel bad for saying this, but right now I don't see her as a man at all.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T17:33:17+00:00

Oh I would never actually express my feelings and keep quite. I guess I just find the whole concept of people having to transition depressing. Like, it sucks we live in such a sexist society that people feel they need to transition to be happy.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T17:31:51+00:00

I was really, really disappointed when Page announced that and was kind of ashamed of myself for it. I was so happy to see a woman that actually wore no make up and was fairly unfeminine in movies. Plus, the whole I am a guy now, see me as that despite seeing me as a woman for years really annoyed me. I think I am just really tired of femininity in general....or at least this femininity that the media promotes.

questioningtw · 2020-12-02T00:33:35+00:00

That is rape. People should be able to reject someone for any reason when it comes to the dating world.

questioningtw · 2020-12-01T23:48:35+00:00

I have seen TIFS complain about gay men rejecting them too. I thought feminism was about how no is a complete sentence.

questioningtw · 2020-12-01T22:51:41+00:00

Back when I was more of a libfem, I felt more bullied into accepting transwomen as women and I don't know, lately I have been getting more and more bothered by it. I am also tired of traswomen being hyperfeminine and ornamental, while of course transmen get to be people. It is extremely sexist to act like sex and gender are completely different.

questioningtw · 2020-12-01T21:56:50+00:00

l am glad. This never should have been allowed to happen, and they should have predicted that some people would regret this.

Back in the day you had to actually live as a mazn or a woman for like 6 months. This is actually sane. Now the minute you say you are a man or a woman, you are one! Who cares if she has literally been a woman for 33 years. She is a dude now because she says so. I don't know why ?I am so upset about this.

yes I would. I might not be the most feminine woman around, but if you where to say hey questioningtw are you or a he or she? I would be pretty damn offended. I would feel different if it where an accidental misgendering, then I wouldn't care.
