On a group tour and the guide asks everyone where they’re from, absolutely everyone says the name of the country they’re from except the Americans who say their state ????????????

Most people outside the US only have a strong notion of like…three states maybe? Even then it’s broad strokes. We don’t know what it means to be from Kansas or Oklahoma. We don’t think about you all as much as you think we do - it’s not universal like other things you mentioned

Yes but that’s just how we think? A lot of times it’s just subconscious. Like to me Europeans r either similar enough or I don’t know anything abt them/that country but I’m not gonna question y they state which specific country they’re from. Just smile n nod

And you think nowhere else on the planet experiences this? Look at Russia, China and many Latin American countries, all very diverse in terrain cause of the size of the country but none of those people are going to state which province they are from cause they know no one cares

Nature vs nurture. The state ur from n even the city can give ppl a good idea of how u r. Similar to how ppl ask for ur astrology, if ur an only child, if ur the older, middle, or youngest sibling. It’s rlly all the same. Plus, some ppl just like to connect based on where ur from

I don’t think the mother meant: “cover up or your brother will rape you”. It’s more: “Cover up so your teenage brother doesn’t have weird and complicated thoughts about his own sister”
my mom seriously just suggested that I wear nipple pads inside the house bc "ur brother is already grown and he's getting sensitive" MA'AM SENSITIVE TO WHAT

Yea I can easily move on. It doesn’t bother me to the point of dictating how he should dress around me because I’m not attracted to him.

And I’m just saying that you could tell your brother that you think it’s gross and he could start wearing underwear, it’s not that big of an ask. I wear boxers but if I wore boxer briefs and my sister got grossed out by me and told me, I’d wear boxers or wear shorts over them

It actually is pretty easy to not think about it because you understand it’s your family member and not someone to be attracted to😭

Whataboutism what’s weirder is why would she walk around braless and we can clearly tell it’s not normal in her culture and household.

Bc she wants to???? Y would she be thinking if something she’s doing is arousing her brother? If you’re not attracted to your sibling it doesn’t matter. And if you are, then covering up does nothing😭 You are the one that has to change.
12
It’s like if the brother was walking around w/ his dick print heavily showing. you wouldn’t want to see that. THINK.

As someone with a brother who walks around without underwear, if I notice it I just think “ew” and ignore it or look away. Its quiet simple to do when you’re not attracted to your own sibling.

When you compell my speech and ban me from communities I've been in for 8 years just because I won't call you a girl, yeah, it kind of does affect me. It also affects everyone who has to see your ugly asses force your way into the wrong bathrooms, not including the rape and shooting victims. When you try to make it illegal "hate speech" to misgender you, and you say anyone who disagrees with you is a nazi committing a genocide who should be shot, yeah, that kind of affects me.
why do people hate trans people so much genuinely how does it affect you

3% of women in UK prisons are in for sexual crimes. 16% of men. 59% of transwomen in UK prisons are in for sexual crimes. Trans is a sexual fetish in men. Fuck off you piece of shit nonce and predator enabler.

And how many trans women are there in the uk compared to cisgender men and women

or you can recognize kids are kids, they have developing brains, and if they think they're the opposite gender that you shouldn't just automatically affirm their beliefs and start the whole trans thing?

No, u let them know what it is to be trans n u let them live, because yes, kids will be kids. They’re gonna get curious n look for answers anyway. Better to educate them yourself than have a stranger do it.
26
show me a study that proves kids who say they want to be the opposite gender have brains wired that way vs literally just being a kid and saying/believing random shit. keep in mind these are kids with developing brains that change over time

A kid being trans n a kid simply saying they wanna be the opposite gender is not the same, hence y we should educate them. Kids r taught gender roles, so when they go against those roles they can believe they’re the opposite gender/sex. Education then helps with that.

15
the point is that KIDS shouldn't be trans. why the fuck would a kid be trans??? they can't smoke, can't drink, can't drive, can't join the army, can't live on their own, can't get a tattoo, yet... they should be able to be trans and be taught about it? wtf lol

Bc that’s how their brain is wired? U don’t just choose to feel like u were born in the wrong body. It’s better to let kids know that they aren’t alone n that they have ppl to support them. This can literally save some of these kid’s lives.

The most inportant point: grooming children into being like them

Yes, bc educating children that trans ppl exist n it’s ok to be trans is grooming.

Are you retarded? "Do everything I command you or you're banned" is fucking evil, entitled, authoritarian behavior. Why are you siding with the evil and licking their boots?

Yes bc every trans person is a sex offender. Just like every cis person is a sex offender. Everyone is a sex offender.

“You’d rather rape someone than kill a baby” Obviously?

Scum. A baby in the womb who is still so under developed that it literally can’t do anything is more important to you than a fully functioning human.

The term "cisgender" is extremely unnecessary. We don't need a term for those who aren't trans. We're simply women and men. Also, I don't feel like creating an entirely different post for this, so I'll just say it here... You don't "identify" as a lesbian. You don't "identify" as bisexual or straight. You simply are. It's not "what you feel more comfortable with," it's a descriptor. Many bisexuals have "identified" with the lesbian label because it's something they "felt more comfortable using"; however, not only is that harmful to actual lesbians, it's a misuse of the label itself.

Gender and sex are directly correlated. There is no such thing as a male woman

No but there is such thing as a male identifying as a woman and living their life as a woman.

You don’t know that for sure. The baby can be miscarried, still born, they could end up depressed, they could end up being a lowlife who doesn’t contribute to society. There are so many possibilities that you cannot for sure say what this baby will be like in the future

A brain dead patient can’t recover, so I actually think it’s better to pull the plug than have them suffer indefinitely.

A woman says : Men are r@ping us, beating us,ki!!ing us. Within minutes, some man arrives with, 'That happens to men too.' Yes. It does. And the person r@ping, beating, or ki!!ing those men is statistically another man.

Yes, because men say that. Men set the system up. Yes, there are some women who uphold it, but ultimately men made it.
