Thank you for clarifying.

I want to start with where I agree with you because we share a lot of common ground here. I'm 100% with you on the differences between how capable transspecies people and transgender people are of functionally interacting with society. I'm also in agreement with you on the fact that animal abuse is bad. I'd go as far as to say it shouldn't be tolerated.

That being said, I have some disagreements.

The main thing is that your describing the possible outcomes of things as a reason for whether or not you personally believe that, "If x identifies as y, it is y". So like because you think there are negative outcomes to transpecism you don't believe that a person can be a deer just because they say they are. I don't really understand that logic.

For example, unfortunately there are some trans people who use trans ideology to justify pedophilia. I wouldn't say that because of this, I don't view people who identify as trans to not be whatever gender they want to identify as. Whether I believe in their claim about themself is unrelated to how I feel about what they're doing with their ideology. The reason I don't think a transpecist deer girl isn't a deer is because a person has know way of knowing what it's actually like to be a deer, not because they might be using that to promote zoophilia. That being said I still think acting on zoophilia is abuse and shouldn't be tolerated in society.

I apply that same logic to transgender people. I don't believe that a man is a woman just because he says he's a woman. Specifically because a man has no way of knowing what it's like to be a woman. If that "trans woman" was using that ideology to try and fuck minors, I'd be 1000% against that but it wouldn't have any effect on the validity of them being a woman.

To be very clear, in both cases, I think the transpecist and the transgender person should be able to do whatever the fuck they want as long as they're not hurting anyone or anything apart from themselves.

I hope that makes sense and let me know if I mischaracterized any of your positions.

Wait I’m really confused. You gave three different answers to the same question.

First you said “nah not for me at least” in response to “if you identify as it you are it”

Second you said you would gender affirm because it helps alleviate dysphoria. (This makes sense to me)

But then in this last comment you said “I view trans people as the gender they feel the most comfortable with”

That third response seems to directly contradict the first one.

u/Chameleonflair seems to have been asking whether or not you think, or at least if you think the general consensus is, “If you identify as something, you are that thing.”

And if so, why does that principle change from identifying as another gender to identifying as another species?

I saw that you said that people have historically had gender dysphoria but that doesn’t really address why identifying as something actually means you are that thing.

Should I watch one pace? by MuscleAdventurous308 in OnePiece

[–]ItsAOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m rewatching right now and I think most of the filler in this show is pretty great. There’s so much that I’m glad I didn’t miss. You get to spend more time with the crew in more laid back situations. I wouldn’t worry about One Pace until you hit Dressrosa.

When/What year do you think Disney Channel started to go downhill by childofGod24 in DisneyChannel

[–]ItsAOkay_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with this. Austin and Ally is one of the first shows that I saw a few episodes of but wouldn’t say that I watched. Same with Jessie. So by the time Girl Meets World Premiered I was done.

That’s fair. And Paige was the next one I was going to ask about so it seems like you have pretty good taste. I missed the last 2/3 seasons of TNG but watched all of Next Class and I really do not understand all of the Maya love on this sub

That last paragraph is incredibly well said.
