Laverne Cox becomes first transgender person on cover of Time Magazine

[Eternal]

All I know is I love the irony of a male to female transgender with the last name Cox.

But I’m stuck on 12 year old humor. >_>

[Lord_Raptor]

Did somobe really just excuse murder? Really? Really?

[pedoviejo]

I love when they demand to be called something fancy, fancy words for fancy minced body parts and fancy foundation five o clock shadow. As such I demand to be called a fancy Reuben Sandwhich. For so long as we demand to be fancy untruths I at least want to look appetizing in my request while they can only wish to be a pale imitation of what they pursue after. Its only fair right?

Also murder might not be one of the leading causes of death for that community if they didn’t try to corrupt a male over to them, or at the vary least if they lied abit better maybe they could keep their lie with them to the grave. Ah but such are the thoughts at late night.

Also why wasnt this up cmon quit slipping http://www.southparkstudios.com/full-episodes/s09e01-mr-garrisons-fancy-new-vagina also sums it up nicely

LOL,

if you are saying what I think you’re saying…

Killing a person isn’t the way to go about doing it. Believe me when I say that I have zero sympathy and empathy when a transgender individual gets killed for lying to somebody and then getting emotionally involved with said individual. But still man, that’s an extreme reaction, even for something as big as breach of trust.

The urges a pedophile feels are potentially dangerous to children around them. Not just mentally, but it can actually physically damage the children. It doesn’t matter if they don’t mean harm because if they ever act on those urges it does cause harm, not just to the children but to the families. I’ve had to deal with a pedophile that used to hang out outside of my little sister’s school. He looked harmless and was nice but come to find out he was already registered for having sex with a minor. Help can only go so far with a pedophile, and at some point a pedophile needs to be discriminated against before he seriously harms a family.

This fool is here comparing that “plight” to simply wanting to change your gender. Like, you have to be a special kind of moron to argue for pedophilia. You talk of how it was accepted in society back then as though that changes anything. Let me ask you, was the legal discrimination on blacks ok because it used to be accepted? Is not letting woman do anything at all ok because it used to be accepted? No, because that logic is stupid as fuck.

Then you speak that it’s genetic as though it changes anything. If someone is genetically predisposed to kill people should we forgive them because they can’t control it? The point is that it causes harm to people around them.

A transexual causes no harm to people around them. A transexual is not genetically predisposed to go preying after little children. A transexual is not genetically predisposed to kill people. All a transexual does is change the way they friggin look, and discrimination based on looks is wrong, and the fact that you equate that to discrimination to pedophiles (and before you say you didn’t, yes you did dumbass) shows how you think about transgendered people.

Then what you say about having the desire to something is crime. Though they shouldn’t be thrown in prison, SOME type of precaution needs to take place.

Literally everything in that post was absolutely wrong and scary.

WTF happened since page 1. lol. @antman11 you read this too

Well, reading that dudes post, i think people, as he said, had an immediate knee jerk reaction to pedophilia under any context, as he was initially comparing the “mental illness” of transexuals to pedos. If you look at it that way, then just like transexuals who are born a certain way, with certain urges, sometimes to the point of not even wanting their genitalia anymore, pedos are similarly born with this “imbalance”, but yet no one has any sympathy towards them, and as linked before in the lounge some time ago, there are plenty of documentaries of pedophiles who will never act on their urges, but cannot stop from feeling them, and their struggles of day to day life. This is simple biology for most of them, with some just being disgusting perverts who chose that path.

We like to think everyone is just born the same, and has the same sexual attractions, tolerance, temper, etc…, and thats just not the case. So we have to grow as a society to be more sympathetic to those people, and in the case of pedos, as taboo as it is, we need to understand that not every one of them is some sick pervert who chose this. Some might be fully aware of that shit, grossed out by it, but even they do not understand their biological urge to desire that. If there is anything to genetic history in our bodies, its no shocker that a very small percentage of the population has those desires. I mean, are we seriously gonna deny human history now, as if dudes werent banging 13 year olds back in the day as the norm. Its gross now, but hindsight is clearly 20/20.

With that said, i dont agree to antman’s initial post on page 2 shitting on them “whining”, and thats easily picked apart. Dont let one persons post take us too far into the deep end. Dont focus on the pedophilia, but focus on the conversation of what is actually a mental illness.

What everyone is diverging from right now is what defines a mental illness. Are gays, transexuals, pedophiles, and people who want to marry pillows mentally ill because they represent a minority, or are some of them mentally ill, while others are perfectly normal. If homosexuals and transexuals were replaced with pedophiles and people who wanna mary pillows as the “major minority” would we give more fucks about sensitivity to their plight? Homosexuality and transexuals are a lot more easy to sympathize with then a person who wants to fuck their dog, is attracted to 12 year olds, or would rather fuck a pillow then a real person, etc…

Human beings are born with infinitely complex problems at times, because its all just simple changes in the chemical and neurological structure of us that makes this happen. Most of us like to think we’re awesome because we’re the “norm”, when really you could hit your head tomorrow and wake up with a whole new fetish, or homosexual. You could get a kidney transplant tomorrow and hate blondes even though you have adored them youre entire life.

There is something to be discussed about where does tolerance stop, and what is a mental illness vs what is not. In all fairness, homosexuality and transexuals are as old in human history as pedos and weirdos who wanna fuck animals. We just do not talk about the latter two because its quite frankly, gross.

If we’re to get into intellectual discourse on srk once again, then lets do it. Dont be blinded by any bias, or ignorant rage towards a topic, but be open to actually discuss it. People have grazed over those discussing about genital mutilation, when in actuality thats a legit topic of discussion, even if it is insensitive to transexuals. What many of them are feeling cannot be “fixed”, hence why just let it rock, but are we going to ignore the fact that most of that push towards wanting to have a dick (as a female) or a vagina (as a male) isnt clearly a chemical difference in the body, maybe even neurological too. Such drastic surgeries shouldnt be taken so easily, because although those feelings cannot be fixed, there should be a heavy lean of caution against it because quite frankly, those people have no control over how they feel, and they do not know it (just the same as how i see a girl jogging in tight shorts, and i jump to the window like a rabid dog. lol. its written in my genes to do that).

No one wants to say it, but hetero, homo, transexual, whatever, we’re slaves to our biology, and then past that we’re slaves to our environment (epigenetics). You cannot just chop dicks off on a whim just because of a feeling, and we cannot demonize everyone who has a “fetish”, or simply is different then us.

I can sympathize with homosexuals and transexuals more then pedos and goat fuckers fo sho, but maybe im more evolved then most people (SHOTS! lol) , but its clear that not every pedo or goat fucker wants to be that. They know theyre even more obscure then other “sexual minorities”, but there is almost no venue, or conversation to understand their struggle. Its just all about gay, trans, and women right now in the minority struggle, yet some dude is literally in tears right now somewhere wondering why he cannot stop fucking his farm animal, or an inanimate object. It sounds funny, but i bet if you were that person, you woud hate for the world to shun you like that before understanding you.

We learn nothing from the past as a species. We just generalize more, and continue to segregate.

I’m pretty sure of this though. We dont want to acknowledge the “mental illness” of others that makes them sexually attracted to taboos of society (not fetishes, but legit, this is what i want and like since i can remember) because it opens up A HUGE CAN OF WORMS to labeling homosexuality and transexuals as a mental illness considering they represent such a minority of society, contrary to what the media would want us to believe.

I dont know homosexuals and transexuals for how they are, or heterosexuals for that matter, but lets not pretend like we dont have zero tolerance as a species for anything outside of the 3 “norm” (2 of which are just now becoming more of the norm, and still kinda arent), and transexuals arent even easily labeled for their sexual orientation either, like homosexuals and heterosexuals, because you could easily meet a transexual female who likes girls, and thats just a big mind fuck for many people. lol

[yah_yaahh_b_tch]

I fail to see how they are ‘fighting’ for anything. It’s more like pleading/begging for sympathy until someone says ‘God! Would you shut the fuck up?!’ and just gives them what they asked for. Same with gay, civil, and women’s ‘rights’. What does marching in the street accomplish? It gathers attention to hopefully elicit sympathy for your cause and that’s all it does. But if the ones who you are asking to give you your ‘rights’ (how much sense does that make?) really don’t give a shit about how you feel, that’s all it will accomplish. Unless they simply get too annoyed, don’t want to deal with you any more and just give you whatever you asked for. I wouldn’t exactly call that ‘winning’, I mean you got what you wanted *technically * but you got it in such a underhanded bitch-made kind of way. You definitely lose some points for that (or at least you should).

They aren’t really taking anything by force. Just whining about it until someone stronger than them gives it to them, like spoiled children. At least the terrorists accomplish what they want to do with action (blowing niggas up or whatever they do).

The issue is the push for ‘equality’ never ends because it was never about that in the first place. It’s a ‘fight’ for dominance and they’ll keep begging and begging until someone slaps their hand with a ruler and says ‘NO!’. But as long as they’re in the position of accepting, they’ll never really be in control. The one who accepts is in debt to the giver.

All wrong. Extremely wrong.

“I just made something up because I think it sounds right”, wrong. Too lazy to even google the monumental laws passed in the last 2 years for LGBT rights, wrong.

I was waiting for someone to explain themselves properly on this subject.

mind that when we’re able to communicate fully with animals and scientists find a way to allow people to cross species it will happen because of the intellectual demand for it. im not being funny here this will happen and I have nothing to say against it because its none of my business

[Jack_Frost]

surprised this isnt front page of srk

[Starhammer]

the most terrifying part of all this is that Time Magazine is still being read (And therefore, being bought) by people. Why santa claus? Why? :shake:

[rcaido]

My first experience was when i saw the movie [details=Spoiler]The Crying Game[/details]

The movie fucked me up good…I always check for Mr. Winky before i kiss a girl…

Also a helpful hint, if the girl likes to give blow jobs & anal only dont believe here about saving her virginity…

[AcidicEnema]

I keep clicking on this thread, thinking it’s related to the sitcom Scrubs

[fishjie]

i really liked her performance in orange is the new black, its a great show and its cool they have a tranny character on there. good for her for making times cover

[MotM]

I have a friend who is trans, but I usually forget what people like her go through.

Reading a lot of the comments in this thread is disgusting.

[Smashbro29]

Time Magazine must not be selling as well lately, good way to get publicity.

I didn’t know this series was even a big deal.

[Coffeejuice]

famous trans people have come to my school and given lectures. their concerns for equality in the workplace and healthcare were legitimate enough, though a few have given the impression that it was extremely important that they pass as a woman/man in their day-to-day. from what i’ve read, the hormonal exposures during fetal development seem to be the cause for gender identity and phenotype. not all men have wide jaws and shoulders and not all women have full hips and breasts. yet we all become comfortable in our own skin eventually. i think image is overemphasized in the trans movement and selfies from people like Amiyah aren’t helping.

Thanks mom and dad.

[yah_yaahh_b_tch]

Why is it that all of a sudden Time magazine has no validity? And yet the majority of the news posted in GD is from wikipedia and/or poor news blog outlets?

Theres a lot of group think going on here. One person says Time magazine sucks, and the bandwagon of “not credible Time magazine is desperate” follows suit. How insulting to the great journalist that still work for that magazine, are any of you even familiar with the writer of Laverne’s article, before you loaded your gun and started firing at the magazine?

[crotchpuncha]

I just don’t think that dressing like a woman and looking like a woman makes you a female.

Being born with a vagina does

No amount of plastic surgery will make me go “yeah i would put my penis in that dude’s mangled nutsack”

Yah bitch, just because you are really into trans people and you want to suck off your trans friend. Does Not mean us “cisgendered” people are wrong for saying “she is a male on the outside with man hands and feet and that is a penis. A large black penis”

Nooe

I will however refer to that person as she or her though because they want to be called by female pronouns.

Kayopolice is an ugly dude and doesn’t look or sound like a girl. Yellow fever blinds dudes and tons of dudes on the fgc are gay or into trans people.

LOl

That’s because you’re a moron who only knows how to think with your dick.

[Smashbro29]

I think we should call people what they like to be called it just gets annoying when they’re not male or female. (Well everyone is male of female technically)

Ze or whatever sounds so fake. I hate having to sit and learn people’s pronouns, just pick a team we’re all on one of them.
