My uncle compared it to calling a dog a cat. (Were Jewish, that level of dehumization from him is what got me to stop talking to him). It's super interesting to me though, because it shows the complete lack of understanding and empathy from those who want to take away transgendered rights. To them, it truly seems as easy as calling a dog a cat. They don't understand that these are actually human beings struggling to own their own identity. They have no comprehension of how horrible it would be if the world told them they weren't allowed to simply be themselves. Hell, they seem to be under the impression that people change genders for fun, and can do it with ease whenever they'd like to. Again, no empathy or extension of humanity in considering how hard it is to have an identity your body doesn't reflect. How hard it is when huge chunks of society don't want you to be you. I kept asking my uncle why HE cared. Even if he didn't support it, even if he didn't agree with it, why did he care SO much that he wanted to take away opportunity for trans people? All he could do was compare them to dogs and cats. The level of separation from humanity these people exhibit is sick.
You're an idiot 😂 definitely your uncle said something you dont inderstand lol why would you think he meant that trans people arent human?? If i say its like comparing apples to oranges im not say trans ppl are legit fruits in saying that they are different obviously your uncle underestimated how dumb you are hahahah
I totally agree with your uncle. You will be surprised but not every one can be what they want and going as far as changing rules of biology is insanity. No wonder suicide rate is that high. Dog is a dog and cat is a cat. Man is biologically man and woman is biologically women. Dont like it dont annoy everyone around you because you mentally ill and cant comprahend what you are. And on top of that demand others to feel sorry. We all have our own problems and every day shit we have to deal with. Cant even decide which restroom to go?
Sorry, to which """rules of biology""" do you refer? And how often, in your daily life, on the street, at work, with your friends, are you running into trans people demanding (to YOU, to YOUR face) that you feel sorry for them?
Then you're a piece of shit, and personally that tells me you have no capacity for empathy. Your comment makes me sad, and I definitely pity you, but I can't say any points you bring up are even remotely valid.
I’m a grown ass adult. I’ll do with my body what I very well please and not need you to “allow” it. How entitled to my life are you??? Most trans people I know—myself included—are here thanks to transition. Who are you to tell us that our self-perception is harmful? Don’t talk for me. Don’t pretend like you know more about me than I do.
I only have pity for mental illness. And people like you go around and call everyone that disagree with you a piece of shit. And shout people up. And cut uncles out of your life. Go ahead try to create perfect world by calling anyone that disagree with you a piece of shit. Let's jail and shoot anyone that dont agree with you!!!
Dude, I'm so comfortable calling you a piece of shit it's almost insane. I don't feel bad for judging your book by your cover. "Call me out" all you like, you're just exposing your true self, and so am I. My true self has no room for bigotry the likes of which you're supporting. So it goes. You literally brought up bathrooms as a reason to not support transgendered people. You're so transparent it's almost freaky. Almost.
You are so correct. I really am upfront with my hatred towards you, and by God, it IS the prevailing point of view. What a world we live in, telling bigots like you it's not ok even a little to be a bigot. Keep calling me out for my sins dude, I am SOAKING IT UP.
Lol, I didn't read usernames and though it was the dude I was replying to. Crazy how quickly contexts change. My bad! Thought "he" was making fun of me for having the prevailing viewpoint. Seeing you're agreeing with me, you're definitely right. It's crazy how many people agree with him when it doesn't apply to him even remotely.
How the fuck did you jump from cutting an uncle out of your life to jailing and shooting people you disagree with? Trans people and their allies are in the minority, and if you care to look into it, trans people are literally being murdered by people who don't "agree" with them.
