[hey]

No. I'm pretty sure it also happens in all third world Hispanic countries.


Again it sucks to live in those countries.

I want to live in the world you do. Because here are earth, there are not many places where trans people don't face discrimination every day. See http://transequality.org/Issues/homelessness.html and http://www.hrc.org/blog/entry/transg...nt-and-poverty . That's in the usa. Don't think that counts as third world.

[Rhinox]

Don't remember saying they aren't discriminated against here.

[hey]

Trans people are being thrown to the streets, and forced into prostitution because no one will hire them, and then living on the streets because no one will house them, even when they have money from sex work, in first world countries.

[Rhinox]

Yes. Homelessness and forced into Prostitution happens in first world countries I agree.

Although I don't think it sucks less being non trans.

[hey]

No, of course not, but it doesn't happen nearly as often to cis people.

This last page looks like something out of TumblrInAction.

SJW viral marketing group was behind the Emma Watson nude leak and threats, tried to frame 4chan for it.

Claims to be for the equality of all, tries to bring down someone fighting for... the equality of all. Ironic. The problem with the whole Social Justice movement is people want things but what things they want or they want to help them reach these goals is all over the place.

Good luck trying to take down 4chan. The couldn't take down fucking Pirate Bay, what makes them think they can touch 4chan? Shit is old as time.

Basically internet feminism:

Rantic Marketing is a fictional entity.

The tldr is is > Someone set up rantic media, same person setup the emmaisnext, demonstrating how copy pasta the online media is and how lacking its research is.

They false flagged 4chan, to false flag SJWs, all the while showing how herp derp copy pasta online media is.
Solid A+ trolling.

[Correction]

people want things but what things they want or they want to help them reach these goals is all over the place.

A criticism justifiably lobbed in any direction on this planet.

Yes, i am shocked that "mommy boards" posters aren't concerned about these things. I can't believe it. Who would have thought?

It's kind of obvious that the vast majority of posters are straight cis women.

You are a complete dumbass.

1. There are more trans women there than here.

2. I didn't say they didn't care about it, I said they didn't use those terms when talking about it. You can have a conversation about trans issues without attacking them and calling them cis.

[Stumblingdrunk]

Again, referring to cisgender people as cis is not attacking them

[Salodin]

Just to chime in, I thought cis was a derogatory insult until the last few pages; thanks to Celeste and Solanis. I won't get so rustled any more when it's used, thanks kuya!

I'm pretty sure celeste had a lot to do with how people here respond to the word cis

[Callisto]

wait wait hold on, you mean 'cis' is not just the shorthand form of 'cis scum'?

[Ksandra]

I find it interesting that we aren't allowed to consider it an insult, but should be mindful of insults we say to other people.

[Milkster]

Again, referring to cisgender people as cis is not attacking them

In most contexts, online, when some one breaks out cis it's to insult them. Cisscum, cishet, cis trash, etc. Rarely is ever used civilly.

[Ksandra]

If a person finds the term black offensive but African American not, you probably wouldn't hesitate to call them African American instead. Are only minirities deserving of that respect?

That is not at all true. You might say that in your experience it is most often used that way, but it is not the case that everywhere it's used it is most commonly an insult.
