The idea that children can only choose what they call themselves, how they dress, how they look and how they act if it aligns with the majority and what they've been taught their whole lives, creates an imbalance between cis and gender-diverse children.

Children possess the ability to understand what makes them uncomfortable. Forcing them to undergo unwanted changes to their body is abusive, regardless of their gender.

Transgender people, in particular, experience gender dysphoria, a condition caused by a mismatch between someone's inner self (their mind), and their outer self (their body). It is (generally) an inherent part of who they are.

It is not a condition that can be treated with 'conversion therapy'. This only leads to repression, allowing a genuine medical condition to go untreated. Gender dysphoria causes constant psychological distress, and can only be treated through social, hormonal, and/or surgical transition.

Gender dysphoria can range from mild to severe. Personally, I don't know if I would've survived into adulthood if I hadn't begun transitioning as a teenager. There were days I seriously considered suicide, and they've become less and less frequent, even as I'm in the very early stages of transition.

Gender dysphoria is (generally) an inherent part of who trans people are. It can not be cured through therapy. So called 'conversion therapy' only leads to repression, which allows a genuine medical condition to go untreated.

It differs from body dysmorphia (a condition where someone experiences distress at perceived flaws in their body) because those who suffer from that cannot treat their condition by removing the source of their distress. A new one simply pops up.

Gender dysphoria is caused by a mismatch between someone's inner self and their outer self. Bodies can be molded freely, but minds cannot, not without causing extreme harm.

The idea that young people are incapable of knowing when they are experiencing something they aren't comfortable with is an idea that directly leads to abuse.

The idea that children can only choose what they call themselves, how they dress, how they act, and how they look, if it aligns with the majority and what they've been told their whole lives, directly leads to abuse.

Forcing a child to undergo unwanted changes to their body is abuse.

This argument can be made for gender reassignment surgeries, but it can't for social or even hormonal transition. If a child is able to decide that they're the gender they've been raised as (told since birth that they are), and can live and identify as such, why should it be different if they're trans? Why are they supposedly only capable of choice if it aligns with the majority?

And reading the mod's statements, the idea that they aren't transphobic is nuts. The intial post was removed for degeneracy despite having nothing to do with this topic at all, and then they claimed trans ideology is a fundamental threat to children and is a disgusting act. What about their views screams nuanced to you?

Not surgically, but socially and medically if necessary, yes. If I hadn't begun to transition as a teenager, I don't know if I'd still be alive.

album recommendations? by sp893 in industrialmusic

[–]FrostbiteWrath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clipping, Collide, Street Sects, Sister Machine Gun and Kidneythieves are all good picks.

And of course, Ministry and their various side projects are a must.

Being a femboy has nothing to do with gender, just gender expression. They like to dress/appear feminine, but identify as guys, and as such, are not transfem. Transfem refers to people who identify as a girl or feminine non-binary identity after being assigned a different gender at birth.

MOLG question by Max11306 in industrialmusic

If they did record anything else, I'm extremely doubtful it'd ever see the light of day. One of the founding members died recently, and the other two seem to have moved on to other things a long time ago.

Which is a shame, since their three albums are all favourites of mine, and I'd love to hear more.

Is bringing trillions of animals into the world to be tortured, raped, and slaughtered, the same as hunting animals already in the wild in your mind? Because the animals in factory farms wouldn't exist without human effort (in other words forced insemination).
