They should construct bathrooms with three categories:
Men
Women
It
These problems will vanish in an instant.
(Nah. It’s pronounced “Mxyzptlk”. As is fitting for those people, the “yzptlk” is silent though.)
Ugh. I’ve said it before, but for how supposedly “connected” people are by technology, it sure does take way too long for most of these motherfuckers to send even just a word of assent or dissent back to you. Does it really take more than a couple of days to say “yay” or “nay” to something, especially when the majority of people are basically one with their smartphones nowadays?
But if they put Cousin It on the door sign, then people will think it’s a bathroom only for very hairy people, you hirsutist!
The grandest irony is that another significant portion of the “discomfort” these people feel comes from their complete and total inflexibility when it comes to just about anything. Like seriously this “it” is pissed because “it” can’t open a bank account because they need to specify a gender and that bothers them, when in reality they are selfish and self centered and expect the bank to rework how their filing and organization system works to suit this one person. They want the bank to treat them special and bend over backwards for them exclusively when this person could just shrug their shoulders and check the fucking female box, or the male box, it really doesn’t fucking matter they just need to accommodate the place they are trying to do business at. Don’t get me wrong, fuck the banks, but fuck people who expect others to bend over backwards for their little social problem. Banks don’t even use paper for this kind of filing anymore anyway, it’s all digital, they pretty much expect the bank to rework the entire filing programing from the ground up, re-insert every single person they do business with into this new system, all so they can accommodate one person who probably has a small checking and saving account with them and is over all an extremely minor part of the banks business.
I’d refuse to do business with you as well, you don;t bring in enough money to be worth the time. Fuck you and your special snow flake bullshit. Check a box, open your fucking account and move on with your life.
Who says they identify as “it”?
As I mentioned before, even though its built in to their filing system… the reason it’s a binary function is its absolutely a necessary precation. The bank MUST know whether you’re a man or a woman, in order to release your information, no if’s and’s or buts. We’re in the business of making $ and not losing it. For the type of risks associated with an account such as this, any business decision is just to not deal with this client… You can take a walk. They don’t need this kind of business.
(We’re agreed on them being selfish, but literally everything anyone does–intentionally at least–is selfish, so that’s not surprising.)
They’re just more selfish on average than even most people are, especially given money (or, I guess, sex) usually isn’t involved in the mix of why they’re bitching.
We live in the era of "everyone wants to be the victim."
Thanks Obama.
The worst part about the ACCEPT TRANSGENDERISM GOD DAMN IT movement is that these people won’t receive help if we’re not allowed to recognize their issue as a problem. It’s easy to draw parallels between homosexuality and TRANSGENDERISM as far as that goes, but the former is worlds apart, with the former often allowing for a happy, healthy lifestyle that doesn’t creep everyone around them the fuck out.
Now, as is the case with any mental disorder, help shouldn’t be thrust upon them…But I feel like the staggering post-op transsexual suicide numbers suggest that lobbing off genitals or using the feminine form of your name (if available) might not be the answer.
All that said, tolerance is important. Tolerance of trangenderism itself, and of the views of people that just can’t seem to act like it’s you know, fine…Provided they aren’t being abusive or antagonistic and have at least a shred of appreciation for the plight of transformers (hereafter; lowercase “T”).
(waits for Negative-Zer0 to agree with that un-ironically)
That’s something that’s also always been part of human nature though, unfortunately, given how self-centered and self-biased people actually are. The main reason it’s gotten so much worse is due to technology “connecting” people’s whose idiotic opinions would have been otherwise smothered before and allow those opinions to be so readily visible due to “social media” and modern-day journalism largely being bullshit more often than not. Granted, this is a necessary evil for the dissemination of non-idiotic opinions as well, but given those exist in a lesser quantity than the above, the more stuff like this goes on, I’m not sure it’s worth it. [/“secretly” wishing for authoritarianism like so much of (white) America]
Of course people do things for selfish reasons, I have a bank account because I need a place to store my cash, under the matress at home leaves a lot to be desired. But there is understandable selfishness, and just unreasonable personal needs that you grind upon for the soul reason of being a pain in the fucking ass, and that’s a totally different level of selfishness. It’s one thing to say “I’m doing this for me because I need/want it” and a totally different thing when you say “I need or want this and it has to be my way only and if you don;t do it my way your the problem.” No snowflake it’s not their problem, it’s your problem, you;re the one with the unreasonable expectations and retarded inflexibility. You live in a world where people need shit done in a timley manner because they got selfish shit that matters that needs to get done, the world can’t grind to a hault for you irrelevant selfish social issue. You’re pretty much demanding the bak put everyone else and the things they have to get done on hold to deal with your little problem.
It’s a completely different kind of selfishness, the kind that fucks with other people lives over trivial matters.
Opinions are like birthdays: everybody has one and I only know yours because of Facebook
I don’t have a facebook, so no you don’t.
(We agree on that too actually, though amusingly people usually just get pissed at me when I point out that altruism doesn’t actually exist.)
Shrug. There’s really no way do anything about it is problem short of either ignoring them or killing them and I think at least most of can agree that the latter is just a tad extreme. Reactionary stuff like North Carolina’s law only gives them more victimizing stuff to rally behind, even if most of here are tired with the trans-whatever “movement” in general, at least in its current “it’s all about xe!” form.
Regardless, stuff like this is why I just try to ignore such things unless it personally affects me.
I believe Altruism exists. Its rare, but it’s real. There are people who do things seflessly.
How do you know though?
Hmm…I see.
Here’s the thing though: how you can be “selfless” if everything is selfish?
Mind you, I’m not saying that self-sacrifice doesn’t exist, but you don’t do self-sacrifice unless you want to do it, even if all the options involved rather “bad”.
(And if you don’t want to do, then I think we both agree that duress or coercion would rather negate any selfless aspect of it.)
I don’t have any problem calling a transgender person what they want me to call them.
Ok, this is just stupid. There is absolutely no problem whatsoever with someone who wants to live their live as the opposite / neutral gender / whatever they want. That’s their business. It’s a private matter. If you’re creeped out by someone who’s simply dressing up like the opposite sex then that’s your problem, not theirs. The problem is some of them want special treatment, or everyone else to cater to that aspect of their being. That’s not a transgender thing, it’s a selfish idiot thing. This bank kid wants the bank to accommodate their desire to not be specified by gender, instead of just acknowledging whether they were born with a penis or vagina.
Pretending to be something as a private comfort isn’t a problem. Denying basic aspects of your own biology and trying to force everyone to go along with you is.
You wanna be called “gender neutral”? Ok. I’m still calling you a “he” / “she” because you have a dick / vagina. You live your way and I live mine. Deal with it.
You’ve been around MechWarrior too long.
