Meta Mistake - Social Media Is Sucio

This is the worst hill to die on ever and I can't believe people are so eager to

This is one of many hills in the past couple years, and they're not showing any signs of stopping as people perpetually sit on social media online, and it goes back to how I generally feel, which Krandor already summed up concisely.

They keep giving the right free ammunition and then wonder why support for trans people is declining nationwide. I'm sure acting like this publicly to the point that daddy Elon decides to get involved has absolutely nothing to do with it eroding public support.

I had a conversation with a guy the other day mad about the Gender Queer book (that only HS libraries have) that showed a blowjob in it, saying such kids shouldn't learn about it. I mocked him for being a virgin, and he said he lost his virginity at 16. So guy is having sex at 16, but is against 16 year olds seeing blowjobs in books, and I just ????????????

When do we get to the "its transphobic to refuse to have sex with a trans person" talking point? That ones my favorite, and I know damn well there are people here who buy into that theory.

I don't think I've even seen this get mentioned in YEARS except for you being mad about what some random person on the internet said so it'll never leave your rage filled brain.

Anyone surprised? Really?

This is just respectability politics in action. "If you all behave in a manner I see fit then maybe I'll agree that you deserve the right to live your life " unfortunately that line in the sand on the beach will continue to move and minorities will never do enough to earn that until they erase everything that makes them different.

95% chance Kanriel buys into the belief that its transphobic to not have sex with a trans woman, hence why they're so upset at me over that.

Surprised I...baited the person into a stance they had no ability to reason themselves out of? It worked absolutely perfectly. And it's extra funny to me because I was a virgin through all of HS.

I too believe that minorities don't deserve rights because some people hurt my feefees while defending them.

If you want to talk about something being summed up well in this thread, it was this

but this is part of what has been so successful about the anti-trans movement. they consistently frame the conversation and determine what the topic of conversation is in the general public. again, no discussion about trans homelessness or trans suicide rates have ever engendered the kind of engagement around here as trans athletes or drag shows do.

Honestly, if I were a single dude and they were post transition, I would totally fuck a trans woman. Not being able to have biological children would be a deal breaker for me, however.

But we really don't need to go down this route again. The only people who think cis is an insult are people who use trans or tranny as an insult. You might as well ban all potential slurs, because the tweet Elon was responding to was someone trying to be edgy and act like they're being misgendered.

You see, it's not your argument doesn't make sense at all - it's that with actual context it's a terrible argument. Sure, calling someone a "cissy" is reductive, but the term cis itself is scientific nomenclature and being offended by that is pretty silly.

To make it easier for you, there's a pretty big difference between calling someone a homo and calling someone hetero. Arguing that calling someone hetero is pejorative is both reductive and stupid and not worth arguing. It's not the same, and no amount of straw man will make them equivalent.

I was a conservative Christian back in those days. I got better.

Seriously? You tell your kid that strangers/adults should not be touching their no-no spots, ever, short of a health-related reason by a GP/hospital.

You know most of these abuses are committed by family members right?

[NynJa]

[NynJa]

I guess in America 34% is a bigger number than 59%.

Reported to law enforcement, my guy. He's right by the way.

Is this your source?

Cause if it is, thats abuse of all forms, not just sexual.

[Andalusian girls]

it is true that the majority of all forms of child abuse except sexual abuse (which is 'only' a 1/3rd minority) is committed by relatives of the child, but Kaslo's underlying point remains. whatever the percentage every year some thousands of children are being sexually abused by family members and so the idea parents can handle all sex education business for children is either very naïve or very callous. there needs to be some level of public sex abuse education, presumably conducted at school, to teach children this kind of behavior is unacceptable and they need to self-report what is going at home if they are able.
