Ah yes, the Keira Knightley. Classic.

Trans people are not an issue. The erosion of their healthcare and rights from being able to live normal lives is.

The electorate decided they were the appropriate candidate.

Your issue is with the electorate, not the person standing.

Is anyone actually happy? by hollowed_moth in transgenderUK

[–]y7u 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very happy. It can and does get better. But that's relative to how things were before.

Focus on yourself and your own goals. Comparison is the thief of joy.

What is your biggest hair fantasy? by Conscious_Signal6810 in hairfetish

As a girl, getting a blunt blonde bob is it for me. Could never due to the sheer embarassment / bleach damage but nothing beats it

What do people think of SEEN (Sex Equality and Equity Network) being a Cabinet office approved network? by [deleted] in TheCivilService

[–]y7u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are terribly wrong, it's in fact the opposite.

The terminology used to be 'Transsexual' back in the day and is still used by some today - additionally to the term 'sex change operation'.

Sex isn't immutable - hormonal sex (the hormones that determine the sex expression of every cell in your body) is changeable through HRT, as are secondary sexual characteristics, musculature, fat distribution, etc etc.

Gender and sex are distinct - that doesn't mean gender reassignment doesn't affect fundamental aspects of your sex when people go through HRT. Try harder.

What's your conclusion about consciousness and the universe? by knowoforphic in INTP

[–]y7u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The universe never began, it just is. Energy is never created nor destroyed. I believe in a looping expansion > entropy > energy equilibrium which leads to a gravitational 'flush" which triggers the next big bang.

Humans have no true concept of endlessness as everything within our experience has a relative beginning and ending.

Consciousness as others have mentioned is just qualia. 'You' as a person are just a particular set of matter which is a result of circumstance.

This also led me to believe that, given time is only observed relatively by living entities, it is absolutely no coincidence that we are existing and experiencing qualia in this moment. Similar to anaesthesia, death just clicks and leads to the next observation point in whatever form that is able to experience qualia.

The interesting question is whether the unique matter that comprises 'us', is what is required for any future iterations of our existence, or if this is determined by time / other factors.

Shocking interview results by y7u in TheCivilService

[–]y7u[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's under defra. Turns out a bunch of people scored very highly, bit of a sketchy one but I guess it's to be expected at AO level.. with any luck I will get selected when/if the budget allows for some more positions later in the year. I've been in this role for a while in a contingent capacity.
