But yes I get your point, you really don’t like people speaking out, you’d much prefer they kept quiet, except of course if they are rightwing politicians singling out a minority group for hate. No, I think all the politicians should be prevented from talking about sexuality, theirs or others. 1 1

Nope, it;'s a public topic. A transgender politician should be free to talk about their gender. How come the right wing are for free speech until they're not? The sooner people become educated that other people aren't only male or female the better. Then another corner of ignorance will be banished. Ask Sam Smith if he's "really" male or female and why can't politicians discuss his sexuality? 1

I have asked why certain groups of the community feel the need to speak out. Why not just get on with life? Also, I have not condoned the speech that is the subject of this thread. But then why did this guy "feel the need" to speak out against transgenders Why does he not just "get on with life" as you put it Because he thinks he is a right-wing mouthpiece and demonising certain groups plays into prejudice and gets him noticed 4 3

On the contrary - I am just trying to find out how far this extreme anti-trans phobia will go in practice. It is one thing to throw a red meat soundbite to a crowd by saying "eradicate transgenderism" but quite another when the bigotry is turned into actual action - how do people who support his speech - such as yourself on this forum, suppose it would be put into action Answer that 2

There are a disproportionate number of suicides 5 years later. Maybe you think it's okay for a parent to insist a young girl carry a fetus to term, but that's not the issue here. In this case, the government is claiming that it knows better than parents, what is good for their child. 1 1

You should see a pride parade. I saw it in Bangkok. I'd have enjoyed it if they wore regular clothes, but it was sexualized: very little clothing, tight, see-though, G-strings, bondage gear, revealing genitals and asses as much as possible in public, deliberately sexually provocative, while carrying signs which read, "Sex work is real work" For the record, I ain't no prude. I have enjoyed such things in adult establishments at nighttime But there were children watching, it was daytime. They wear shaking their bare asses at kids. I was thinking, "This is how they try to fit into society??" Why not wear regular fashionable clothing, traditional Thai garments, their temple 'Sunday best', their university uniform, or their professional work clothing, or just normal casual clothing. So many choices. Why wear stripper clothing? Why does pride parade have to be tied into sexualization? It seems to be the main theme. Surely, there is more to them than that ???? and surely LGBTQ is not exactly about sex. Isn't it more than that?? 4 1 1 1 1

He gives no definition of normal other than a vague "accepted standards of society". He also conflates the argument of transgenderism with the bathroom issue. It's all pretty damning. Interesting that he's changed "eradication" to "ban". His genocide means genes argument is just daft but I agree people should be accurate with reporting his actual words.

Or the gay parades in Ibiza - also a hoot. I'm straight - but when these parades go on - there's no sex going on that I saw - but the clothing - was camper that a row of pink tents - as it should be, As for the kids - we all have bottoms, we all have bodies. They aren't seeing nudity - but the odd g-string under a pair of leather chaps as someone climbs on a motorbike is the worst I've seen. At least shave that behind ????

You hear “well he didn’t actually mean kill them” Then May I suggest you dont use the word “eradicate”. And this idea the left is as bad as the right just doesn’t hold true. I don’t see the left attempting to victimize so many minority groups, that’ll be exclusively the right. Or spouting wild conspiracy theories including that elections are rigged. 1
