Topic: Seriously, why do people even care about transgender individuals so much?

Anonymous A started this discussion 11 years ago #45,078

The "autism" in this thread is incredible.

Is everyone on any chan website so sad that they have to fucking obsession about other people's lives?

It doesn't have to be transgender people, it could be any other group like Jews or Muslims or Blacks.

What. The. Serious. Fuck?

Trannsexualism is caused by proven, observed differences in biology, where people have differences that make them identify as the opposite gender. Are you now claiming that otherkin have biological differences in them that make them identify as animals? That they might have a hypothetical "I identify as a human" part of the brain swapped to "I identify as a wolf"?

The reason, though, is because people hate and fear anything that is different. Just like they did with homosexuals, just like they're doing with pedosexuals, just like they did with witches. People are stupid.

We really shouldn't care what anyone else does unless its harming someone else, or in some cases if its harming that person.

Criticizing transpeople and insulting them won't make them not feel how they feel. Therapy was found to be ineffective. I don't personally understand why it bothers people, but it does. I assume for the same reason anything different bothers people. its our monkey brains warning us because we don't understand and survival is a shoot first ask questions later type deal.

"All lives matter" is a bizarre and ignorant reply. There is a specific problem with black lives being devalued, blacks being profiled and shot by police. There is also a serious problem with black on black violence being underreported. Of course other lives matter; if cops were killing them en masse, we'd probably be talking about that too.

Try not to be retarded and bigoted in the midst of your moderately coherent attempt to defend another group.

kook, somebody being a celebrity doesn't make bigotry against them okay. Being in the public eye isn't a reason to criticise somebody for being trans. They're not "asking for it".

I don't know what OP actually thinks about this, but I find it interesting how you assume that OP only cares about one side of the trans community. As if you assume they're a hypocrite and not genuinely interested in equality.

@595,323 (kook !!Phkn/3Gic)
Transsexualism itsslf doesn't cause suicide. Rather, it's the stigmatisation and societal aspects of it that can lead a person into that sort of mindset.

Broadly speaking, the risk of suicide is increased by things like social stigmatisation and discrimination. Conversely, quality of life is improved by having good social support in life. So... might we be agreed that a positive step in those suicide rates would be to decrease bigotry against transsexuals? :D

@595,328 (kook !!Phkn/3Gic)
So are you expecting to find biological elements in people that match up with those of other species rather than humans? Because then it would be "the same" as transsexualism. Because transsexualism is when a person has "the wiring" of the opposite sex. So for your claim that otherkins are the same as trannsexual to be true, a man would need to have something like a brain part that matches that of a wolf.

But, if we're just referring to that thread, there's plenty of ridiculing her for being trans (and trans people in general) interspersed throughout. Now, I get that those people specifically are channers and are prone to making impolite comments (and indeed, I support such free spaces existing), but I think we're both talking more about people in general than just what 4chan's /tv/ is saying.
