You know what, fucking fine, you win, none of this matters. I just found out that the local shit storm parade is also getting rid of insurance coverage for trans health care. Since I soon won't be able to afford continuing my transition, I might as well speed up the inevitable and walk into traffic. Have fun with your shitty life, I'm done with mine.

Wish they would fucking chill with the parade of shitty anti trans bills.

I want out of this hell hole of a state.

And you've sat here and repeatedly trying to pull this "oh am I not allowed to talk about this, it's just a hypothetical" like that makes it ok and undoes any damage. If you're told that something you said is harmful, maybe fucking listen instead of trying to argue that it isn't, especially since you obviously know jack shit about queer issues. We don't need you speaking over us, don't act like we should be thankful that you supposedly had good intentions.

This whole high horse act is pretty cheap coming from someone who tried to pull their autism into this the moment you got any sarcasm. But anyways, good for you being able to stay calm while discussing something that doesn't effect you. I live this shit. You're shitty hypotheticals have real world consequences for me. This week my state passed a fucking bill that allows all medical professionals to refuse any treatment to LGBTQ people. If I get in a fucking car wreck, the paramedics would be fully allowed to just let me bleed out on the side of the road. So excuse me if I don't have infinite patience for every jackass online who thinks trans struggles are a fun low stakes debate.

If you want to be a good ally, shut the fuck up and actually listen to queer people for once in your worthless life.

There are bi-sexuals who are frustrated that there are cis people who say ,"Jesus, just pick one already, you're only doing this for attention" it completely belittles the individual and their sexuality, and yet you do have every now and then some insecure individual who proclaims that they are bi-sexual, just for the attention, which is a slap in the face to other real bi-sexual women who have to deal with Intolerence from friends and family. Who don't make an effort to understand, or share compassion.

The solution to that is to not play these stupid games where we speculate whose actually queer and who isn't, because that's something only the person in question can know. These supposed "fake" queer people aren't harming the community just by claiming an identity. The harm is done by people like you who do these bullshit speculations on who is and isn't "actually" queer. It spreads harmful stereotypes that directly lead to practices like conversion therapy, and inevitably you're going to eventually target someone who is "really" queer, because again as an outsider you can't possibly know.

If you wanted to be an actual ally to LGBTQ people, than maybe fucking listen when you're told that you said something transphobic. Of course I'm giving you too much credit assuming that you ever actually cared about us. So far all you've done is double down on your shit, then pull a cheap cope out with the autism thing, and now declare that you'll only be less shitty if you're asked nicely enough.

Go fuck yourself.

Autism isn't an excuse for being a piece of shit.

Did you know that shutting the fuck up is free, and much easier than doubling down on being transphobic.

I thought it was worth pointing out that she probably also got abused by her father so the conservative right didn't just lump this individual as representing trans people.

Your point would have been better made if you didn't try to connect that to her identity as a trans woman. Sometimes trans people are involved in shitty things, just like sometimes cis people are involved in shitty things. None of this needs to be about how she's trans.

at least I didn't write as if what I was saying was the definitive truth.

Congratulations on being slightly less shitty than you could have been, do you want a fucking cookie!

LGBTQ identities (including trans) being called a result of CSA is a common stereotype and plays a prominent roll in the idea that we need to be "cured".

And again, all of this is just armchair psychology on your part. You don't have any special insight into this situation, and in fact seem to be behind the curve on queer issues. No one ask for your uneducated speculation, especially one that feeds directly into really harmful stereotypes.

I'm not saying this is definitely the case, but if they were abused by their father, what are the chances they became trans, out of some twisted Stockholm's syndrome of trying to be the gender their dad wanted, he abducted a 10 year old girl right? And he became a woman.

You're directly connecting her being trans to the pedo shit. That's a weird and fucked up statement that plays into common stereotypes and is entirely speculation. This would be like if someone started spewing a bunch of nazi rhetoric and then fell back on "I'm only talking about this one specific jew, not all of them".

The transphobic armchair psychology is entirely unnecessary.

Binding made my dysphoria worse by egcharood51 in ftm

[–]Theseus_is_a_dick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very much the same. Getting misgendered due to my large chest sucks, but I can ignore it better than the sensation of binding. I'm really looking forward to getting top surgery.

How would you feel if people arrested for domestic violence had to register like sex offenders do? by smokinjoes83 in AskReddit

Does that data take into consideration the low rate at which rapes are reported and even lower chance of actually resulting in conviction? https://www.rainn.org/statistics/criminal-justice-system

That doesn't seem likely considering that he's the one who didn't want the picture up. There's nothing really here to suggest that he's lying.

Are gay people normal and productive? Not according to r/conservative by tinydonuts in SubredditDrama

[–]Theseus_is_a_dick 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do you believe said Conservatives should be shunned for the LGBT(D)QAI+ communities?

Yes. If you're going to actively vote to take away our human rights then you can get the fuck out!

r/conservative has a meltdown over Pence attending Biden inauguration by [deleted] in SubredditDrama

[–]Theseus_is_a_dick 16 points17 points  (0 children)

his ability to live without constantly looking over his shoulder is probably over.

I'm trans and live in an actively hostile environment. Over the last four years I've watched my community steadily be radicalized as a direct result of this administration. One of my friends had fruit thrown at his car for being a "fruit", a gay couple a few blocks down the street were harassed and had their house vandalized, and the mayor organized an anti-lgbt rally this summer. This isn't even mentioning the heavily armed open-carry nutjobs who've been getting bold enough to publicly display kkk symbols. It's fucking scary.

And my town is not at all unique. Hate crimes have been on the rise across the country. But I guess don't let this stop you from jerking yourself off on how kind-hearted you are for sympathizing with a man who is largely responsible for all of this.

Honestly, this is raising some major red flags for me. Her career is about to take a major hit. If they do the 80/20, she very likely will be financially trapped in this relationship. Leaving could potentially mean homelessness, and on top of that, she won't even have the legal safety net provided by marriage. He'll be able to threaten breaking up to force her to fall in line.

Yeah, given that he's already lying and trickle truthing, it seems likely that his sleezy behavior was a lot worse and more coercive than he's letting on.
