I was gonna write up an actual, polite and respectful reply…but you lost me at “vote Trump next election”. Must be nice being so privileged to not have to fear for your rights when specific people with specific opinions, policies and (might I say, bigoted) ideas get in charge.

You’re clearly either a troll or unfathomably silly. I honestly have no idea how someone can look at the state of America today and think “Ah yes, I want that again!”. But doesn’t matter you right? Not like they’re slowly taking away your rights, life-saving medical treatments and even your humanity.

This has nothing to do with your dating preferences. You’re a jerk for completely different reasons and this comment is extremely revealing.

You will vote republican and Trump anyway, no sane person would say stuff like that. Literally threatening people by voting for Hitler “noooo I always voted democrats but NOW if this will not go as I want, I will vote for Hitler and its your fault” What do you even mean? Should you drop all the support right now? What? You never supported anything, all of this is bullshit.

Women naturally produce very small amounts of testosterone. I didn’t even have to read your paragraphs of bullshit to know you have no fucking clue.

Couple things:

1. Sports aren’t that fucking important. I guess we ultimately agree that pro/adult sports can do whatever tf they want. If you don’t support that for whatever reason, just don’t watch that sport. Personally, having done the actual ass end care for patients with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, I think American football is unconscionable but I know it’s a huge industry that’s not going anywhere and there’s really too many unconscionable things in the world for me to focus on that one specifically. It’s weird how much people care about THIS thing specifically when (as stated) there’s waaay bigger, realer problems with the sports industries.

2. Similarly, children’s sports are also meaningless (except football being evil as stated), except in that sports generally encourage children to develop habitual activity levels that will later help avoid metabolic disorders and teach some group-work skills. None of those things involve chromosomes or hormones at all. Children need to learn to deal with humans who look and sound different than them to not panic, and hopefully even to engage in group work with a diverse team. So it’s weird to exclude trans kids from children’s sports, because that runs counter to the goal of helping them become well-adjusted. People are just gonna get way weirder around them as time goes on so they may as well get used to it now.

3. Chromosomes also have a lot less to do with the final form of genitals than one might think. There are even non-chromosomal disorders that can make an XY fetus just not give a fuck about testosterone and grow a vagina anyway. Apparently before modern medical science that usually just kinda went unnoticed for most of the persons life, they were just assumed to be barren. Also if the testosterone thing is itself the deal breaker then like what if she’s had some kinda hormone imbalance earlier in life? How would you even prove that? Biology is waaay more complicated than a coinflip.

4. I guess it’s not morally wrong to not like the idea of testicles having been part of a person’s body at any point, but it is kinda weird. I really don’t spend all that much time thinking about how any of my partners’ genitals may have looked over a year ago. I’m mostly looking and touching them, hearing them make squishy noises, and occasionally tasting them like… right there, in the moment. If they had a nasty rash a year ago, I wasn’t gonna be licking it then. But it’s not there anymore, so I’m sure gonna lick it now. I guess it’s also like… not wrong to not like surgically constructed/corrected genitals, but like what if they spilled a negligently hot cup of McDonald’s coffee in their lap and it fused their labia together? (Sorry, that story is just wild.)

5. You can be attracted to whoever you want, but also if you’re otherwise getting along with the person enough that you mutually remove your pants, then see it’s the vagina/penis you were expecting but with some kind of permanent scarring, and that makes you nope out? Again, not morally wrong. But it’s kinda… sad. I’ve had multiple male partners with large circumcision scars that even affected sensation and functionality (again, off-topic but it’s WILD that that’s legal), and like… I licked those too. Where’s your line between type and amount of trauma or surgical intervention or unexpected development and whatever “normal” is to you? Like, I could say all other things being 100% equal, I’d probably be more comfortable with the dick that looks more like I’m expecting a dick to look versus not but it also has the lowest rank on my list behind a lot of things that actually matter, like being funny and not being a rapist or hitting me. I have some visual preferences but pretty much none of them are dealbreakers.

vote Trump next election

You are sure that you want to vote for that monkey, just because some people are idiots?

Damn, wave of bigotry here lately

I’d just like to say…this person has been banned from this instance before for trolling, then their ban was undone.
I think they should just go, for real this time.

I’m not defending it in any way, but where I’m from, disparaging things by calling them “gay” back in the 90s was ubiquitous. So much so that LGBTQ friends of mine did it at the time and up into the early 00s at least. I don’t hear it any more because everyone wised up, but at the time there was definitely a little bit of taking the power back using the term.

You are correct. Please ignore my absolutely unpedantic ass and carry on. Thanks ♥️

we are our brains, not our genitals

This resonates. Excellent quote.

Kinda completely unrelated but one of the reasons the professional skater Andy Anderson is goated is his famous “your brain is YOU” line in regards to wearing helmets. Like, your dick could be obliterated today (apologies for graphic nature) and if you survived it wouldn’t make you a woman, unless you wanted to be, in your heart which is a metaphoric way of saying your brain and now I’m confusing myself

It’s like misogyny, why is being compared to a woman an insult? Fuck bigotry, especially the borderline genocide happening to trans people right now.

I wish I understood this earlier than like 4 years sgo. They don’t teach it at school in the country where I and Miisha live, even the “woke” one I went to (or I don’t remember, I was super ignorant back then)…

This is an oversimplification. It often (not always) aligns closer to the affirmed gender, but neuroscientists often describe post-mortem trans brains as a mosaic.

I agree! This comment is true

To be accurate, you are what you are, both mentally and physically. Both count, and both are valid reasons to be attracted to or not attracted to someone. What labels those are given can be nuanced or not, depending on the audience and intention. That’s the reality of it all.

I don’t think they think much at all

We can focus on multiple things at once.

I will not abandon trans people because it’s uncomfortable for some to see people talking about it.

Someone always seems to come and mention universal healthcare and universal basic income. I don’t disagree that those things are very important actually, but bigotry is still bad. I believe that two things can be true at the same time.
Not trying to be offensive, not trying to fight. I’m just saying.

Is this a reference to that person that wanted to be refered to with dragon pronouns a while back?

Or just forget labels and fuck

Now that’s an idea! 😂
I like it :3

I’ve been married for so long that I’d just take one for the team if my partner transitioned. Divorce is no joke.

I thought i was at least 20% gay for being okay with transwomen. I now realize im 100% gay b3cause im a transwoman with a wife.

Win-win? Happy partner, happy you?😂
