I’ve never really felt fully comfortable being open about myself on big platforms like Reddit, but on here it feels a lot safer, especially since adopting better digital hygiene.

So I’m just kinda saying it explicitly for the first time that I’m a trans girl. I like myself, I like my body, even if it’s not perfect yet, and I like being pretty. I’m even slowly coming out more and more in real life too! Idk, everyone congratulate me or something haha

Things are hard, but I like how accepting the federated side of the internet has been so far to me.

      You can be biologically-homo sapiens all you want, but you should grow up out of your delusion that you’re mentally capable to do anything other than peeling potatoes.

          “Fought and bled for some oil executive to have their number to go up”. There, fixed it for you!

          I’ve consistently done everything I can to make those that society has left behind or treated poorly have some comfort. Some joy. Some happy memory of someone who was genuinely happy to help them and be fulfilled by it.

          At the same time, let’s use your own argument against you. A gender studies degree? So you are aware biology and gender studies exist beyond what you are capable of understanding, and yet still refuse to accept their outcomes?

          You fought for this country, showing you believe in awarding recognition based on merit. So if someone takes all the steps and jumps through all the hoops to transition to their ideal gender, shouldn’t the merit of their struggle be awarded?

          TLDR: You are wrong. Easily wrong. That’s alright, I used to be wrong, too. It really f***ing sucks and I hate being wrong. That’s life. There is always more to learn and new things to experience. There’s a whole world out there, and that isn’t even counting the mysteries of space.

      Dude what is wrong with you?

      If someone wants to transition then let them transition. It’s not brainwashing children considering there’s many people in their lives for them to look up to and make their own decisions based on.

      Also, men have no obligations to be fathers, nor do women have any obligations to be mothers. People are allowed to be happy, and not act like animals, constantly breeding for the sake of continuing their lineage.

      Yeah let’s focus on trans people, and ignore all the religious bullshit we feed our kids, or all the violence we show them. Its mind boggling how Americans are afraid of some nudity, but simultaneously show kids cartoons where violence and murder are just normal.

      I worry about the poor boys that don’t like women and have an idiot like you as a parent.

      I have a boy and trust me boys are not growing up thinking they are women. There are more people in jail/prison in the USA than there are trans people, so now all boys are growing up confused thinking they should be in prison?

        Agreed on basically all points, but tbf there are more people imprisoned in the us than an awful lot of more popular categories than trans folks.

      I see it a bit differently. I think your role in life is whatever you define it to be. Whatever makes you happy.

      Would you say any infertile woman is not a woman? Did they fail life because of it? Would you say people that don’t want children are neither men nor women? Is there a difference between being female and male? Sure! But not being able to bear a child doesn’t disqualify you as a woman. Gender is just a construct society made up.

      It’s good to question your identity, so you can be who you truly are.

      Edit: No reply… I was hoping for a good discussion, but I guess that’s out of the question as you did reply with insensitive and superficial comments to others 🤷‍♀️ You can do better

          A woman is a lot more than a just bearer of a child, you fucking delusional piece of rat shit. I am confident this incel created this account solely for the purpose of trolling.

          basic biology when advanced biology walks in 😮

          fr tho being female/male/intersex should not ever dictate who u get to be as a person and what ur societal roles are allowed to be. fuck that ancient conservative belief and just accept us for being who we are.

              I reject the premise that a child can be momentarily confused and end up getting full gender reassignment surgery. That’s just conservative fear-mongering that is willfully ignorant of all that’s involved in gender-affirming care.

                  And being “deeply confused” for a male child means not wanting to act out the traditional role of marrying a woman and bearing children?

                  From your original comment:

                  You can be a biologically-male woman all you want, that is your choice and your right

                  But then you say:

                  Boys need to understand that they are not women and will never be women, their role isn’t to bear children, it’s to meet a woman and be the father of a child.

                  So which is it? Is it the right of any person to identify as they choose, or must you act out the traditional (conservative) gender role predetermined by your biological sex?

              no, i dont. and thats why i support trans kids instead of forcing them to live as who u decide them to be based on their fucking genitalia alone.

                  nono, im not suggesting forcing any gender on children. they can play dress up all they like, and if its ever more than dressup, i will still support them if its what they want.

          The man’s “role” is biological and infallible, you make it sound like it’s so inflexible. But it’s also so delicate and so easily influenced that children might be confused. How can it be both?

          Is it actually about children instead? Well it’s no one but the parent’s responsibility to teach the child, right? So stop telling other people how to live

          You clearly know nothing about biology, otherwise you would know Biological sex is largely a Myth.

          To summarize:

          • Chromosomes don’t mean shit: People exist with XY chromosomes who present outwardly as females.
          • Genitals don’t mean shit: 2% of humans (2.8 million per year) are born with ambiguous genitalia.
          • Hormones don’t mean shit: Testosterone levels overlap between males and females.

      Why would you feel the need to type that out in a tread where a woman is just trying to express feeling happy about something that has nothing to do with anyone else?

      So what is your take on when someone with XX chromosomes experiences standard expression of FOXL-2 for part of the gestation, but stops functioning before finishing primary sexual characteristics?

      How does that fit under a biological classification? Are they meant to bear children? Be a father? Will they ever be a boy? A woman?

      Furthermore, are there other genes that inform your thesis to the above statements? How would their expression through developmental stages possibly affect the expressed sexual characteristics in both normal and impeded function?
