Laverne Cox becomes first transgender person on cover of Time Magazine

Where the fuck are the mods dude…GD is getting out of hand these days…

I’m discussing the article - which at least the part I read - the parents said that once ‘they’ could talk, they said they were a boy. When I was a young kid, I was depressed, withdrawn, and yes - suicidal, I’m sorry I just don’t think you can take a kid that hasn’t even APPROACHED any level of maturation, who are still discovering BASIC logic, and use what they say or do as a large swath to paint them with. I’m not saying you fight their wishes - not at all, but they’ve (the parents in said article) grabbed the proverbial bull by the horn and are dragging it around for people to see.

As for the last part - if that was at me, sorry, its not exactly some large scale civil rights type movement that I’ve dug into to take a stance of some sort. I frankly don’t care about the movement. No, let me reword that - I’m indifferent about it. I don’t discriminate against them, have any issues, etc - similar to LBGT - I’m indifferent, do what you want with whom you want, you should be treated as an equal. My issue is simply with the parenting. Its easy to make the connection to the LGBT stuff - if my son acted out as though he liked boys, I’m not going to push him away from boys and I’m not going to push him towards boys, I’m going to let nature take its course, its not up to me to drive him in a direction, he doesn’t know any better. If you ask a 5-10 year old what they want to be when they grow up, most of them will give you a different answer each month. I juat think that if a kid is just getting into elementary school, its not right to turn them into a symbol for some movement as though this kid’s interest and behaviors are etched in stone.

To answer your first question Gays and LGBTs who unified and pushed for the laws to be changed got the laws changed. If they had never taken the steps to make their voices heard and to put up worth while reasons for why theyhave been treated unjustly then the laws wouldn’t have changed. That’s how we do things here in America. We make our voices heard. We don’t go bombing buses and coffee shops like you advocated for earlier. They aren’t looking to over throw the government, they are looking for an equal share of the pie. The fuck kind of logic is all this?

Also marriage comes with a shit load of benefits (Tax breaks, recognition as someones significant other in important matters such as health care, death benefits so on and so fourth) that group of people where locked out receiving for no reason other then “My bible says you’re evil.” You come off as incredibly uninformed about any of this so you should probably just stop talking about. People used to treat transsexuals and gays the exact same way people currently treat pedophiles. Hell blacks in this country used to have to deal with with as bad if not worse conditions but through social change and meaningful conversation and and active reform people don’t get to treat them like property anymore. Maybe pederasts will have their moment some day like gays have had and transsexuals are currently having. Breaking down barriers is a brick by brick process, you don’t do it with TNT and a tank (tho you seem to think that’s perfectly fine for some odd ass reason.)

Did he really say the thing about bombing coffee shops?

I kind of skip over his posts after the comparison of transexualism and pedophilia.

Apparently they keep their dignity because they blow up people for their cause. That’s much much better then civil discourse. sarcasm

Hey guys. I decided I’m a unicorn today.

Hereafter, you shall refer to me as a unicorn, unless you are a bigot.

@Bious especially you.

I go by DNA, I have a lesbian cousin who is a stud/dyke. She acts like a dude, but she still is a girl, so we say shes and etc. Just as lots of gay dudes already act girly but we still say he.

Just because you get that surgey don’t mean you are a girl. If you have the XY chromosome you are a DUDE. And I think alot of trannies are just gay niggas who lust after straight dudes so much that they wanna trap them

You don’t need to change your genitals and etc to partake in “masculine” or “feminine” things. You can look like a girl but you aren’t one. Trannies need to stop trying ro force people to agree with that shit. And the analogy about Mother Russia and etc having a female prounoun is a valid argument.

Against my better judgment I decided to check this thread back out. Man we got all the classics in here when it comes to not knowing anything Trans communities.

Man, you really don’t understand why people are transgender do you.

That’s because your bull dike aunt considers herself women dude. Gay men consider themselves men. That isn’t the same fucking thing AT ALL.

Being a transgendered has very very little to do with sexual intercourse as well, like fucking Christ man could you be any less informed on the subject?

But my point is female to male trans would in a sense act just like her. So why can’t they remain as they were born and still act like a dude? My cousin functionsjust fine without needed to get a fake dick made and her boobs chopped off.

And I know being trans doesn’t always have to do with sexual preference. But IMO its just unethical to do that shit. It would be less of an issue if trans people told their partners that they were trans before intimacy, so they wouldn’t be deceiving and evil and can prevent another case of trans violence after being “found out” instead of confessing or being honest.

Your point falls flat because it’s not the same thing. You’re comparing apples and oranges.

Two things

  1. Obviously your cousin is just a lesbian and not trans. Being a tomboy=/=Transgender or anything close to it.

  2. Not all Transgender people lie and keep it a secret, stop using this as a justification to be shitty.

Trapping is appalling. I like to think it’s very rare, without knowing much about it.

I don’t see anything wrong with elective surgery. Transgendered people, with their brain/soul disorders, have the right to be happy. If a sex change operation and hormone therapy help them to that end, so be it.

Ehh its whatever. I just wanted to drop in my view. But I think @dab00g‌ was right about alot of these trans defenders are less about treating people right and instead they do like trans girls.

Yea man fuck equality, I just want to fuck a bitch with a dick!

I’d hit it and it wouldn’t be gay.

Joking. This is good for society though. More acceptable these days. Gay marriage, Sam, and this are good awareness for their community. I am straight and gays/ts get discrimination harshly in some areas.

Studs are masculine women.

People REALLY have to stay out of this discussion if they have no clue about gender and sexuality.

Honestly, is there a difference between a sex change operation(s), and cosmetic plastic surgery? If I choose to get a penis enlargement, is that any different than a chick having her stuff … ugh ?re-molded? into a penis?

Im just saying, there are people here who don’t agree with trans shit. Doesn’t mean they will beat up a tranny or treat them like shit if for whatever reason they were around one.

All im saying is I personally think its wrong and no matter how many pills you take and how many surgeries you get, you are still whatever you DNA is to me. I wouldn’t do something jacked up to a trans, I just don’t agree with it and think its evil. But it’s whatever.

Not agreeing with someone doesn’t mean you will take some type of hateful action against them
