Essentially, they're expanding it to cover as many groups as possible that don't come under the definition "heterosexual". This then gives them an advantage in the Oppression Olympics as they can claim all the collective oppression of every group within LGBT. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gender and sex are different, not my fault you are too smooth brained to understand this. Unfortunately for you, you are wrong and deep down, I think you know it.....just can't admit it. They aren't even clued up on their own talking points: Quote No, they are a female in terms of gender - sex and gender are not the same. Sex is different to gender, in the new way of seeing things, sure, but female is sex not gender. A trans woman is not female. You cannot change your sex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely "A trans woman marries a woman." describes it perfectly? Why the need to shoe-horn "cis" into it? It's redundant.

KhunLA Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I'm still at a loss, of how is this "hope for same sex marriage" A male, married a female ... that's it, and that's. Has absolutely nothing to do with same sex. What they think or want to think they are or want to be is irrelevant. In the eyes of TH law, a man married a woman. Nothing is different, except the optics. They could dress up as a clown and a rabbit, and it would still be a male human, marrying a female human. Legal in TH. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are basically two types of people in their mind when it comes to discussing LGBT: pro-LGBT people who completely agree with them and right-wing, Nazi, White Supremacists who are lying because they hate trans people, with nothing in-between. Their minds cannot allow them to accept that any rational normal person might have a valid concern on any of this. Even if you put together a solid argument, with evidence to back it up, once they see they are beat they will start saying that you're being aggressive and trolling. Then they pick up their toys and run home because they don't want to play anymore. It's all simply too ideological and the cognitive dissonance kicks in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree with that, I think. I consider myself way in between, pro everybody, anybody, anything ... I just hate the lobbying special interest groups. From 'non heterosexual' groups (alphabet thing is just getting too silly now), to BLM, God, to Right/Left, Rep/Dem, women/abortion rights, anti gun or gun right, Christian/Devil...anti vax/vax'd, masked/unmasked, pick a topic. Seems you have to be either or, not allowed to think for yourself, have a middle ground. Labels & divisionary tactics of 'everyone'. I'm starting to completely ignore news, OK, op-eds as news simply doesn't exist anymore. I actually get most of the news from AN. Only other source I read is RTNews, with a small grain of salt.

They don't want regular people, who have supported various "movements" for many years, to start thinking for themselves and questioning things. If normies suddenly start saying "Hang on, this is all starting to get a bit silly and I'm not sure if this is positive anymore", then these groups might stop getting whatever they want automatically in the name of "progressiveness". Dissenters need to be labelled and silenced. It's all very 1984. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all simply too ideological and the cognitive dissonance kicks in. so far, i agree with what you are saying. i do not generally like mainstream tv. however, sometimes we learn things from some shows. for example... i knew nothing of the tbgl existence until watching south park episode where fat ass declares himself transgender. here, in thailand it wasn't discussed until very recently. before that, katoeys and gays and lesbians and bi were the normal norm. i never would have had an opinion about neutral gender/transgender toilets had i not watched that episode. i think that as humans (neutral-genderless humans included) the race is making identification more and more complicated. i bet that the rising amount of people identifying themselves to some of the letters of lgbqwertyb+/- 3 is proportionate to the amount of people discovering god, allah, and all the other deities under the sun right now. as you say clint, no in between. humans are taking the norm- out of normal. glad my neptunian parents put me up for adoption Edited June 9, 2023 by Pouatchee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
