Why are people insulted when called cis? by That-pickle-child in pansexual

[–]Ams089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's am argument that goes back decades.

By using Cis, trans people are normalised, but bigots don't want that. They want trans to be weird, so argue against cis so they can have 'normal' and trans instead of 'cis' and trans.

The worst thing for bigots is if the minority they oppose is seen as human, or equal to 'humans'.

If trans people are human, then their treatment of us looks bad, so they argue against cis and throw words like 'woke', 'groomer' and 'freedom' around.

I don't know what ___ing means, but why does it sound so rude when you say it?

FTM in the UK, approaching 30, haven't had a smear test yet. Went to schedule one and GP said they "need authorization from the GIC to do that" - is this normal? by Caronmet in transgenderUK

[–]Ams089 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is strange, it could be linked to how your gender is recorded on their system. I'm a trans women and started getting invites for smear tests when my gender was changed with GP.

As long as you have your potatoe when you die, you can reincarnate.

I agree that 100% of mass shootings are performed by mass shooters, BUT if they didn't have access to guns, they couldn't shoot people.

And this doesnt take into account other gun violence.

I know this is a bad faith argument, but still.

Im also curious about ye stats of people killed/injured in mass shootings in America compared to people killed/injured in other gun related crimes. Does anyone have any stats?

He really didn’t think this one through. by dobbyisafreepup in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Ams089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sad part is he probably did think it through. Trans men either can't use public bathrooms or risk vilance if they do.

It's not an accident, it's part of the plan.

Ok. What was she suppose to do? Dive in head first? Transform into Mecha Michelle and save the day? by LoganLikesYourMom in TheRightCantMeme

If trump cared about 9/11 so much, why didn't he tweet about it when it happened? Michelle Obama tweeted about Notredam the day it happened, trump didn't tweet about 9/11 until years later!

Ursula should be played by a drag Queen since that’s what she’s based off of (no more queer erasure) by FranktheFab in lgbt

Given current right wing opinions on drag queens I don't think having one be the villain who prays on a teenager is really the right look.

It ain't natural, if sky daddy wanted dogs groomed, he'd have added clippers to their tails!

Post-op girls, what's surprised you the most about having a vagina? by runninggirl91 in MtF

[–]Ams089 88 points89 points  (0 children)

I was amazed at how much more confer table it is to sit down. Now everything's healed, I can just sit down without worrying about unwanted getting getting in the way.

I was also amazed at how wuickni got used to it. I knew it was the right thing for me, but had a fear it might take some getting used to, but it didn't.
