Lol. Here comes the thought police. How can any normal 21st century person be okay with illegal words, animals, plants or people?

because I'm transgender, and it honestly just fukin wears me down to see slurs thrown around casually. stopped using a forum I liked because one of the users had "tr*nny" in their name. it just sucks, you know? I'll go somewhere else, and then the racists and people who are okay with racists will stay. evaporative cooling, if you will. check out decriminalizenatur... btw.

This is exactly why censorship is a terrible idea. I'm under no obligation to approve of, celebrate, or accept your interpretation of reality. I would go so far as to argue that your sexual identity has resulted partly from aggressive online censorship that painted any criticism of your identity expression as "hate speech." May I suggest that you reflect on your fragility.

First off, there is no such thing as "transgender". You can mutilate your body all you want and take all the pharmaceuticals you can, you still won't be able to change your gender. You're just going to look weird and condemn yourself to a lifetime of social agony. Secondly, nobody owes you comfort and happiness. If words offend you, then you're already vulnerable to all forms of communication and you should stay away from people in general - both online and offline alike.

ah, feck off. it's pretty standard scientific consensus that this stuff is valid: health.clevelandcl.... but, yes, the ability to endure slurs is a necessity in order to participate in intellectual conversation. to me it's odd though that something like the n-word is permitted on a seemingly professional site like this :shrug:

If transgender isn't a thing, are we rolling back intersex too? Do we go back to chucking hermaphrodites off cliffs? Are we going to be like Iran with there 0% homosexuality rate? What are people like Caster Semenya?

I agree, 60 trillions of cells don't swap chromosomes with surgery. It is impossible to do, especially for the all the (cross) gene expressions involved in establishing the hormonal equilibrium and mental state associated with your biological sex. Simply stated. But they do have observed similar brain scans between "transgenders" male-to-female (self identifying) and real females. Or vice-versa. And I agree, "transition" surgery is mutilation. And a billion dollar business...
