Another strawman. If I didn't care about 'the individual' citizens. I wouldn't support medicare for all, ending wars, stopping tax cuts for the rich, separating parents from children at the border, etc. I could go on forever.No, you made it clear, the individual citizens don't matter.
I don't think that analogy works as well as you seem to think... Simple explanations for simple minds. You can't comprehend more than black and white, no understanding of nuance. I could just as easily say, the frame is the big issues and all you care about is sweeping the floor.Think of the United States as a house. The frame of the house is all the policy in America. There are policies right now that are chewing holes in the frame work right now causing the house to crumble in parts. You want to worry about other things, "Bigger Issues". What's the point if there is no house to live in?
Nah, just sick of you arguing against a strawman to soothe your ego.Yeah, one on one is complicated huh? Harder to argue when you can't hide in a crowd huh? Here is some of that bigotry coming for ya... you go dye your hair blue and save the planet from global warming in your electric car that by the way uses LITHIUM in those batteries... go research how that pollutes.
What did I label you as?
Total strawman. What exactly do you mean by "think you're the opposite ***"?
I think you should change it to, "identifying and presenting yourself in a way that makes you the most comfortable."
The fact that you care about the reason is weird to me honestly. Got any guidelines on piercings or tattoos?
Do you think that there is an objectively 'best' way to live? What about objective morality in general?
Also I don't think it reflects well when you respond to 3% of my arguments.
At first it was identifying as the opposite biological gender typically behaves. Now you only have a problem with genital modification?
Do you really think that a transgender man identify as a biological female... No, they identify as a transgender man and prefer to be called she because that's what being transgender is! Even this explanation is a little to black and white for me. I don't know why is SO important to you that biological gender and gender identity be linked. You keep saying you don't like to be labeled. How do you think the normal people you label as mentally ill feel?
That's exactly what I've been trying saying the whole time, they are separate. No matter what you identify as you are still whatever biological gender you are born with. We are closing the gap slowly with surgeries and hormone therapies, but I don't know if we'll ever get to the point where people like you won't be able to tell visually what someone was born as. Or if we will ever be able to observe the full scope of neurological differences between male and female brains.****** identity and biological *** are two different things. If you have a wiener, you're a man, regardless of how you feel. You can feel like a women or a horned green goblin or whatever, but you're still a man.
Fair enough, you could try taking your time and separate the it into quotes like I've been doing. But I understand at some point it's about how much you value your time lol. I also appreciate your style and the debate, you seem to be the most logical person in this thread.It's hard to respond to everything, you type a lot. Ask me specific single questions and I'll respond; I enjoy your style, it's very fair and you have a ton of good points.
I guess that is where we differ. I believe transgender people are, much like you and I, being honest with their feelings. Correct me if I am wrong, but you seem to believe that transgender people are deluded at their own expense? One could make the same argument about straight people sexually limiting themselves.I don't care what they identify as. Being transgender is being mentally ill. I've know several male to female trannies and discussed their lives intimately. People who feel like they aren't they're biological *** have gender dysphoria. I'm not saying they're evil, but they are mentally ill. I don't care about your feelings or even mine, if I'm honest. I'm always honest with myself and that's why I talk like this. F*ck your feelings, people need to be slapped back into sanity, if you don't take control of your own mind, we are going to have a completely non-functioning society. I'm not going to be told what I should think or how I should talk because of somebody's feelings.
Biological females do this thing before they accept the penis into their v agina for copulation. The inner walls of the v agina secrete a liquid that lubricates the v agina. A fake gash will not do this unless it's blood from the stitches ripping out. Use your head man.That's exactly what I've been trying saying the whole time, they are separate.

That's why I said I don't know if we'll ever get there... Also by visually, I was more talking about the outside of genitals and body shape/type.Biological females do this thing before they accept the penis into their v agina for copulation.

I think with the direction this is going we'll start getting into free will pretty soon lol.
