I'll be the first to admit that I don't really understand the science involved in the whole sex, gender, and transgender discussion. I'll also admit that I haven't spent very much time at all in trying to understand it- because I don't really care at all. I don't think about it, ever. All I think about is just trying to do my best to treat everyone else with kindness, compassion, empathy, and respect. I don't care about their race, their ethnicity, their gender, their sex, their creed, or anything like that. If someone wants me to call them a particular name or address them by a particular pronoun, I'm happy to do it, without hesitation. I may screw up and forget, or I may make a mistake, or I may not understand the how or the why of it all, but I'll always have the good intention of trying my hardest to honor and respect someone's wishes of how they want to be addressed.

Why? Because it. quite. literally. does. no. harm. to me. and. it. might. make. all. the. difference. for. someone. else. so. what. in. the. ever. loving. fuck. does. it. hurt. to. just. be. kind?

I don't care what bathroom someone uses. I don't pay attention to anyone else when I'm in the bathroom. Don't care. Want to get in and get out as quickly as possible. I don't inherently care what sport someone wants to play with what gender, but I also understand that there are legitimate safety considerations that should be taken into account, so in general I believe that legislating sport participation by gender is best left to individual sport governing bodies and not to the government or to politicians.

I truly cannot imagine living my life in a way such that I care how other people want to think of themselves or identify themselves or ask to be addressed. Just cannot wrap my mind around having the bandwidth to care about something so unfathomably inconsequential to me.

but you do care about a person having diff political beliefs. maybe apply your basic fundamentals to everyone even those americans who do care about who is using which bathroom etc and i havent witnessed your "kindness, compassion, empathy, and respect." you are selective and dont treat "everyone" the same. thats our conditioned society as a whole right there. you think you are better, but you arent. thats exactly why i treat everyone with disrespect until respect is earned.

we have a weak as fuck society controlled by out of control emotions if people dont get their way...in a nutshell full of justifications and crutches to numb the pains of life

You need to seek immediate psychiatric help. You are not well. I’m not even joking, go get help. Every single one of your posts is a begging, screaming plea for help. I’m sure they are plenty of us here who would be happy to help you if you want. As I said a few days ago, literally every single one of your posts reads like you are a few key strokes away from dousing yourself in gasoline and lighting it on fire. Seriously, log off and get some help.

You haven’t witnessed my “kindness, compassion, empathy, or respect” because you’ve done nothing to earn it. You are a person lacking any conviction or principles, or at least that’s how you cosplay on the Internet, and I have less than zero respect for you. There are plenty of posters on this board, hailing from both sides of the political ideological spectrum, who have earned my kindness, compassion, empathy, and respect- with the glaring exception of the ones who think it’s fun to punch down on marginalized individuals and groups, or the ones who spend every post pretending to think that their cosplaying nihilism is cute or clever.

Do yourself a favor and get help.
 


Trump makes a punchline of transgender Americans as he announces his EO to prevent transgender women from competing in women’s sports.



 
Great! Now that we’ve ended our long national nightmare involving of the .000001% of the population, I’m sure those grocery prices will nosedive annnnnny day now.
 
Thank you President Trump!!! Our long national nightmare of dudes who look like ladies trying to enter the United States illegally is finally over!! America has been made great again.

Yeah, but it is slightly more insidious than you might think. His primary target is to ban transgender athletes from the 2028 Olympics being held in the United States even if they are otherwise allowed to compete by the Olympics.

I 1000% support this. I don’t support trans athletes not having a way to participate in sports. If it isn’t reasonable for trans men (transitioning to women) to participate in men’s sports then there needs to be sports leagues to accommodate it. It wouldn’t cost a bunch in the way of tax dollars for states to create that. It accomplishes both fairness in women’s sports and eliminates perceived discrimination.
