>>
>>6122512
Do you even need to ask?

If there were some sort of treatment, that made trans people cis of the sex they wanted, and got to start their life over again.
Then if you asked the people if they wanted to let trans people to do that, they'd most probably say no, even if it wouldn't cost them anything.

People don't like trans people, they don't believe in it, and they think that it's "special treatment" if you give trans people any treatment at all. They'll argue that if trans people should receive treatment, then they should get whatever beautifying products they want, for free.
Basically, trans is where people dump their hate, and their "if I can't get it, then nobody should" shit, on.

well to be fair... "mental illness" is not a good term because there is no illness... no infection, no virus, etc. It's not a good term because it masks the problem or rather misrepresents the problem. I didn't use "illness" but instead used "disorder." The anon conflated the two when they responded but I was going to let it slide. I was just curious why calling it a mental disorder was incorrect. I don't really care what this or that organization now uses. I would just like to know the reason of "why" behind it.
>>
>>6124593
Don't know about those two, but psychopathy is.
It's an abnormality in the brain, it's not normal, where as in trans people there's no abnormality, just a mismatch.

There's nothing wrong with a trans persons mental state or brain, it just doesn't match with the body.

It doesn't sound too different from a person born ugly who then undergoes cosmetic surgery, or being born with a certain skin color and making an effort to become white or whatever. Your problem just happens to be your sex.

i hope you are up to date there my man, because the newest studies have finally debunked this shemale propaganda. Male and female brains are the same. Differences between sexes lie in the upbringing/cultural development, etc. of the person. Basically, if you are a man who wants to cut off his penis and call himself a full-on woman, you are mentally fucked up freak who was abused and need shock treatment.

Yes, I agree that the mind of a degenerate, and a mind of a degenerate that stuffs their body full of harmful chemicals, would be significantly more difficult to function properly with than the mind of a healthy normal person.

It has nothing to do with life being more difficult as a woman as the majority of trans people never actually experience life as woman because they are all ugly as fuck hons a.k.a. crossdressing men who took their fucked up fetish too far.

Being invisible is a bad answer

>most people still don't understand...gentle and thoughtful about it
When a person is debating your right to exist, this discussion should not be treated as in good faith

>trans people have now been associated with pedophilia
This one I don't understand at all. It's not even a proper uncle Tom talking point.

>people are more suspicious...pass more easily due to the public's ignorance
Not suspicious, paranoid due to active fearmongering. False positives due to this now allow greater control of female self-expression through bullying and exploitation of trans-exclusionary laws and policies.

>activists..dangerously pressuring and convincing people...some kind of magical cure-all
HRT and surgery are shown to consistently improve the subjective quality of life of the great majority of people seeking them. Therapy without them is shown to be very nearly useless. Therapy with them, optimal.

>the more extreme...exploit their medical professionals...not have been able to for good reason
The typical "good reason" is that they don't adhere closely enough to the therapist-du-jour's stereotypes. An Irish study found that patients who bullshit their medical practitioners to move things along had the same positive results as patients who followed procedures - just much sooner.

>many people...didn't need the surgery to begin with...exploited for ideological reasons
The overwhelming majority of people who've undergone GRS have been happy with the results for decades, now. The overwhelming majority of those who regret the surgery do so because they're still socially ostracized despite.

>activists...convinced people...world is coming to an end
That's not activists. That's literally human nature. We're social animals, and broad public disdain, ridicule, and exploitation hurts. Being isolated and vulnerable is not good for the human mind.

When people are screaming and calling others transphobic rather than explain the genuine needs of those people in a non-insulting manner, of course people are going to be suspicious that there's probably a secret reason why they're so desperate to get access into certain spaces.

Also the point is taking into account ideologists taking advantage of the confused who would likely be okay if they'd taken a less drastic path, but have instead been convinced they need to take the dangerous path right there and then in order to find happiness.

"Why should we allow you to exist (in homes, in workplaces, in public spaces)" is not a discussion topic that deserves to be treated with respect, no matter whose existence is being discussed. These are points of contention that people are largely being called transphobic over. They do not present an opportunity for greater understanding, but a venue for the expression of baseless animosity while trans people are made to seem like they are speaking from another extreme. It is not so, and misrepresents the issue.

How are you aware people would "probably be OK if they'd taken a less extreme path"? Why is it your right and responsibly to decide what path they a are allowed to take, and why does your opinion deserve more merit than theirs?
>>
>>6126906
Yelling at people and insulting them never got anyone anywhere. You can yell at the actual hateful ones, but for the everyday person off the street who probably only knows very little but what misinformation they've heard, they're not going to think any better of that issue by being insulted over it. It's simple marketing. If you're going to convince people to see a subject in a positive light, you have to sell positivity to them. Not mindless chanting.

And you're almost saying exactly what I am anyway. I don't know what path a person is going to take, but whatever their decision is, it should be on the basis of them being given the full information required for them to make an informed decision - not exaggerated tales from ideological extremists. In that way, if the only option they're peddling is to take the extreme road, then you only have less drastic paths in comparison you can take besides that.

I think you're looking for something to get angry over when I'm actually on your side.
>>
>>6126945
Sure, mindless chanting won't get anyone anywhere, but allowing the issue to be framed by those hateful and aggressive individuals is what is accomplished by being gentle. It's not going to work either. When a person is agreeing with preventing trans people from using public facilities, they need to know that they're agreeing that trans people should not be allowed to leave their homes. When trans people are being conflated with sexual predators, whom violence against is advocated for, they need to understand that they are advocating the murder of trans people as an act of vigilante "justice". When people are advocating for an employer's right to fire trans persons on that basis alone, or landlords to evict them, it needs to be made clear that they are advocating that trans people should be destitute and homeless, and that it is a charitable act to allow them any work at any pay, or any shelter at any cost. That being who and what they are is deserving of any cruelty anyone cares to dole out.

There is no "gentle" to it.

As for the portion we largely agree on, I feel the point of contention is who is doing the misinforming. But we can surely agree that thoroughly informed consent should always exist.

If by this you mean that one should be allowed to self medicate with HRT, then I would have to disagree and say that doing so w/o medical supervision is more likely to increase the chances of negative complications including suicide.

>>6122512
Because transgenders are secret Buddhists who believe they will be reincarnated into beautiful women if they kill themselves.

Those aren't straw men Anon, unless prominent American republicans are just elaborate false flags?

>>6128146
No, not at all. Informed consent amounts to going over the effects, possible complications, and side-effects of a treatment with a prescribing physician so as to ensure that the patient has been made fully aware of those things. It pretty much ensures they have a physician to monitor their health through the process.

Gender dysphoria is a mental disorder according to the DSM, being trans is not, as being trans does not necessarily entail gender dysphoria. Also, evidence suggests that most mental disorders have a strong neurobiological basis, in depression, for example, irregularities in the Hypothalamus and Hippocampus are strongly implicated.

Here's a paper on Hippocampus shrinkage in clinical depression:

>“Every one of us has the right to live our lives as we wish,” he said. “If any one of us wants to dress up as a woman or man and wants to live as woman or man and believes that we might be something other than what we were born, God has made each of us with free will and the ability to choose to do that if man to wants to dress as a woman, and live as a woman, and have a bathroom at home.”
>A reporter sought clarification on the remark: “So then they shouldn’t use the bathroom out in public?”

Glad he won't be your next president, but this politician has advocated that trans people should not use the toilet when they are away from home.

Cruz heard the reporter's question, and did not clarify himself. Do you suppose he is merely hearing impaired, and prone to poorly expressing his stance?

Even being charitable to a person who has done little to inspire that treatment, he has continuously run adds conflating trans people with sexual predators and pedophiles.

How do you suppose it goes over for trans people casting suspicion on themselves by always avoiding multiple occupancy washrooms (single occupancy washrooms are not necessary in most buildings), or worse, using the washroom of their assigned gender?

A trans man using a women's restroom when a prominent law enforcer has suggested that they would not prosecute instigators of vigilante justice against men "following women into the washroom"? A trans woman walking into the men's room, a place where camera surveillance is not permitted, when the right wing media blitz has been, again, painting them as child molesters?

You are making yourself defend Cruz. Have some accountability.

Because its a dead end life

Transition and you become a complete social outcast and subhuman to most people, you'll never have long term friends, no one will love you, no one will marry you, your family will disown you or at the very least will be severely embarrassed of you, all that ,and people still see you as the sex you were born.

Don't transition and you'll be deathly uncomfortable in your own body, you wont know how to behave as your birthsex, you'll start talking to women as if they see you as another woman or talking to men as if they see you as a woman, not realizing in the moment that you appear male to them. You'll live your life in 3rd person, feeling like you're piloting someone else's body. you'll be awkward and weird and never leave your house, you'll cringe hearing your own voice, and will spend the rest of your life trying to make yourself comfortable, ultimately ending up transitioning or an heroing

He could have corrected or refuted the reporter. He chose not to. It says good things about his growing understanding of the situation, because clarifying that people could use the bathroom of their birth assigned gender necessarily means forcing men, who often look very masculine and dress to match, to enter women's washrooms.

Either he wants to bar use of facilities entirely, or he is actively working to make it easier for men to enter women's washrooms. Ask him which one!

When it comes to real talk Cruz is an apologist. He says that the law isn't against transgender but how it's currently worded it doesn't differentiate between women like Caitlyn Jenner and men like himself. This is what he said.

He needs the voters on both sides but his critics say he's using the issue to stir emotions and support for himself.

So the laws that prohibit a male from entering a restroom designated for females is based on moral decency? That doesn't sound correct. Every time it's discussed, lawyers are always talking about privacy rights not moral decency but I'm no expert.

I've been seeing this since I started coming here, but I still have yet to see a source.

This site has been almost solidly right-wing Christian since around 2008. That's when the fun died and 4chan became conservative tumblr.

"When the group looked at each individual brain scan, however, they found that very few people had all of the brain features they might be expected to have, based on their sex. Across the sample, between 0 and 8 per cent of people had “all-male” or “all-female” brains, depending on the definition. “Most people are in the middle,” says Joel."

"This means that, averaged across many people, sex differences in brain structure do exist, but an individual brain is likely to be just that: individual, with a mix of features. “There are not two types of brain,” says Joel."

Literally said that there are no differences, each individual can have/has small differences because of cultural upbringing/childhood, etc. which is expanded upon later in the article. Do those hormone blockers also block your ability to read? This study was posted everywhere on the net and the results are the same everywhere. It was posted here quite a few times too, which made shemales furious, but it still is a scientific fact. You can always check it yourself if you disagree.

It's time to tighten up that rope my man. :)

right-wing for sure, but i think it's still solidly athiest/agnostic leaning. not that there aren't some teenage youth group autists who post stupid arguments about "degeneracy" from time to time.

4chan has been right wing since it's inception. 4chan was always against political correctness and hugboxxing. I remember even back in the habbo raid days it was always "niggers have aids lolo".

Most 4chan "agnostic atheists" are just Christians without a direct scriptural god to back up pretty much identical moral systems, logical leaps and essentialist rationale.

No, it's been all over the damn place.

>4chan was always against political correctness and hugboxxing.
4chan was a place to hide from normies who demanded conformity and conservative values from all.

>I remember even back in the habbo raid days it was always "niggers have aids lolo".
That was an inside joke, which was what made it funny. Then a bunch of political reactionaries showed up and turned 4chan into little else but a right-wing propaganda machine and echochamber pretty much devoid of the chaotic, degenerate humor and sexual extremes that brought people here in the first place.

Now people like you two

The study you're citing (unless there's a newer one) analyzed a region of the hippocampus that had not been previously observed to be sexually dimorphic (with or without post-natal hormone influence). It has basically no overlap with, evidence to contradict, or information to add to those other studies. It covered the largest region of the brain studied thus, but all it could conclude was that brains (as a whole) are not substantially sexually dimorphic. Even this study had to conclude that there were structures and patterns very closely aligned with one or another gender.

What it says is important, but it's not what you seem to want it to.

>he has continuously run adds conflating trans people with sexual predators and pedophiles
And that climate of fear has led to men barging into the women's room when they see a butch cis woman go in to "protect muh wimminz", often with some assault mixed in for good measure.

Way to show that you literally have no idea what you're talking about.

You do realize that there are unisex restrooms, right?

It used to be covered by insurance, conservatives and radical feminists gave opinions and testimony that led to it being removed.

Sometimes I wonder if being trans is just the ultimate projection of insecurity with the idea of being gay.

>People don't like trans people, they don't believe in it, and they think that it's "special treatment" if you give trans people any treatment at all. They'll argue that if trans people should receive treatment, then they should get whatever beautifying products they want, for free.

I guarantee you people would be more accepting on trans people if most of them didn't look like horrible abominations because they didn't transition well for whatever reason.

Can't tell if you're autistic or genuinely a disconnected liberal. 4chan has always been offensive and against political correctness. 4chan was always homophobic, against blacks, etc. I've been on 4chan off and on since 2005 and little has changed except there's more lefties here from reddit and the addition of new boards.

4chan was an anime website. As it expanded it might have seemed like one thing or another to you but then you would be wrong. A large portion of 4chan doesn't even care about politics in the slightest. There are boards specifically made to discuss politics and containment boards for excessive racist memes. These have never been part of a site wide culture.
