Then you haven't watched TV or a movie in the last 20 yrs have you ? lol
 

We are forced to experience their mental illness daily.

I saw Rue Paul as a guest host for a week when Jimmie Kimmel was on vacation.

That is hardly seeing trans people daily.

I watch TV and movies daily, I don't see transgenders on TV shows or in movies.

That is because I am not really interested in transgenders so I don't choose shows that feature them.

If you are seeing them it seems you must be choosing to do so.

And the left wants men in girls’ showers, and of course promotional homosexual picture books in grade schools, but it’s not being forced on anyone, wink-wink-nudge-nudge

It’s curious that the rightwing transgender hate mongers and their followers automatically  assume that transgender is always male->female.

 

 

 

Who exactly are these right wing transgender hate mongers? I am sure there are many prejudiced people out there but how exactly is that "right wing"?

 

J.K Rowling is often singled out as a transgender hate monger.Yet the accusers have never once been able to produce an example of her alleged wrongs I wish more people on this issue had the intelligence, grace and humanity of Eddie Izzard:

 

“I don’t think J.K. Rowling is transphobic. I think we need to look at the things she has written about in her blog. Women have been through such hell over history. Trans people have been invisible too. I hate the idea we are fighting between ourselves, but it’s not going to be sorted with the wave of a wand. I don’t have all the answers. If people disagree with me, fine, but why are we going through hell on this?”

Do some men transition specifically to avoid serving in the military? 

 

Is that fair to average men that have to risk their lives while transgenders don't? 

 

That's a whole different subject matter. And, no I don't think a guy decides to become a ladyboy to not roll the dice. It cost me 15K baht and the ole lady's son didn't have to.

The trans community has been incredibly hateful for a long time. Look at the vile abuse JK Rowling has had for example. Or this T-Shirt in the OP.

 

 

"Dykes only. Men, who needs 'em?".  Misandry much?

 

When you pump out hateful rhetoric for so long, it is inevitable there will be pushback. So stop whingeing about it and address the hate within your own community.

Do you believe that men can become women by dressing like one and wishing it so?

People are not being asked though are they, that's the issue, they are being forced to accept this nonsense.

They have to spew hate that is their job. Look at who their supporters and allies are.

 

The best political test for anyone is the question: Can a man become a woman by wishing it so and by dressing like one? If the answer is yes, you are either dealing with a murderous Socialist or someone who does not believe in reality.

Destroy a country from within. And it's not just the transgender issue, society as a whole has gotten soft. Imagine today's young being drafted to fight a war.

I dono about that we’ve been fighting to many wars lately that being said out troops have acquitted themselves professionally/bravely and with honor with few exceptions.you don’t strike me as a sissy did you have to work with any?somehow I doubt it neither did I quite the contrary in fact.the whole issue is overblown in my view and is being used as a tool to incite and divide.

I am thinking that the time is weighing heavy on the hands of some of you, maybe something to occupy your time in a wholesome, decent way.

Or for those of you whose reading isn't the best.

 

Hope this helps.

Silly statement coming from one of the most hateful monger troll on AN.

Putting aside your personal attack, do you simply not see the rightwing fixation  with ‘male ->female’ transgenders?

Good grief are you kidding yourself? Only those on the warped end of the left have an obsessed fixation guys of pretending to be female. The rest are just pointing out the ridiculousness of it. It’s easy to spot a failing ideology, especially when it encourages males to compete with women in sports. If you can’t see that then you’re a goner and there’s no hope.

Nonsense it’s the trumpers that are making an issue of a tiny minority of of easy targets for political gain.

Or perhaps move to Thailand where Transgenders are and always have been part of mainstream society and where somebody else’s gender is their own business.

 

Its the perfect location to observe the absurdity of the culture wars around transgenderism that has been fabricated for rightwing political gain.

 

 

 

 

 

Ladyboys fight with other males in Muay Thai.

Watching Rue Paul is hardly seeing trans people because Rue Paul isn't trans.

Nope that’s technically a trannie.if you are asking me if women have the courage to fight and acquit themselves well that would be a resounding yes they are capable brave resilient beings especially when engaged in a cause they believe in.
