I was filling out an application for something and when it got to the "Sex" question, there were a few options. I took out my Sharpie and crossed out two of them, leaving only "Male" or "Female" as options. And then I checked "Female". I did this almost automatically, it was like something in me just rose up and resisted. I'm not usually the type to be that petty. Now I'm not necessarily proud of that, but I'm also not ashamed. I'm just really, really, REALLY tired of this being shoved down our throats. I dont care what people do, or how they identify, but I wish they wouldnt force those of us who choose to just follow science and the Natural Order of things, to accept cognitive dissonance (and arguably, mental illness). Plot Twist: Before accusing me of being a bigot, I'm a black woman. Who never cared anything about trans people, my attitude has always been "live and let live", but now I'm at the point where I just really want the loud and aggressive ones to go away, just fade from the fabric of society and how we shape policy.
** Also, I implore women of any race to really check on how trans men impinge on our sex based rights. Not all, but some of them want to erase what it means to be a woman.
There's more to being a woman than throwing on a dress, some lipstick, and a pair of heels.
Don’t ever apologize for being right. It’s not your responsibility to crawl into their delusions. The mental health community and medical community should be ashamed they use these people for their own social experiment.
YES! These people need help. When I was studying Psych, I started to feel like the subject itself was a sham because clearly trans people have a dysmorphia. I guess its just a "trendy" one, huh?
The way they changed the DSM was literally people screaming in a room and the loudest people getting the final say. That is some shit. I’ll see if I can find a link.
I bet! Thats honestly how most transgender policy has gained ground. The funny thing is, even BLM start to notice that the trans get "taken care of" more than their movement of wanting to coddle thugs and criminals. Since Michael Brown days, not one really significant reform in policing except body cams, has been implemented on a largely visible scale. But look how many trans rights and reforms have been in place, gaining attention and traction. I'm so fucking sick of the left in general.
