  • Yeah. There’s a lot of things that conservatives hate, that’s what I was saying since the beginning. And I didn’t even mention the hate of non-christians, for example, or for socialists.

    And if you support some things but not the others, you’re still supporting policies based on hate, so my point stands


  • Well… if a conservative:

    • supports gay marriage
    • doesn’t believe in ROGD or the notion that people become transgender because of social contagion
    • is okay with sex education that includes homosexuality
    • supports transgender athletes
    • supports transgender people using bathrooms according to their gender
    • is okay with drag shows and doesn’t believe they’re automatically unsuitable for children
    • doesn’t believe that people of color are inherently more violent/stupid/dangerous/filthy/etc
    • supports schools in teaching even the unsightly parts of the country’s history
    • supports immigration
    • supports diversity and inclusion
    • doesn’t believe that young people are lazy ungrateful brats
    • doesn’t support patriarchy
    • defends women’s rights to abortion
    • believes that government should spend more money on helping homeless, drug addicts, disabled, orphans, etc

    Is this person still a conservative?








  • A “hallmark sign” of having gender dysphoria is persistent identification with or insistence on being the opposite sex for at least a period of six months. And “not everyone who is questioning their gender ends up being trans” is not a statement anyone would argue with.

    And no, confusion does imply being wrong. I rarely if ever saw it used as a short-hand for “not having an answer”. It usually means either “fail to understand” (e.g. “I’m confused, is the birthday on the 5th or on the 15th?”) or “made a mistake” (e.g. “Oh, sorry, I confused you for a friend of mine”). The term you’re looking for is “questioning their gender” or “exploring their gender identity”.


  • Being transgender is a constant and persistent condition. Even for genderfluid people the “fluidity” needs to be repeatable. If a girl/woman suffering from cramps during her period thinks “I wish I was a boy/man so that I didn’t need to suffer through this every month”, she doesn’t become trans because of it.

    And “gender confusion” isn’t a fair description. It’s basically saying “they are wrong about what they’re feeling”. And you’re not a telepath to know that
