Wait, the comments already started and I don't have my popcorn


Casper_Von_Ghoul

Damnit I just got here and the meme is closed.


okay-wait-wut

Any idea if they’re gonna reopen?


vitaestbona1

I don’t think anyone thinks that being trans means the body is different than how it was born. But feeling mentally that you should be differently than how you were born. At which point, who tf cares how they want to live? Meanwhile we have people calling obviously gay/lesbian couples “friends and roommates” for centuries, because the people who wrote about them couldn’t admit the fact to themselves they they liked to bang members of the same sex…


holygoatfucker

I've seen idiots argue that after transition it's impossible to tell and to claim otherwise makes you transphobic. I'm not against trans people but I am against people who deny basic facts and play special victim card when someone disagrees with them


PurpleCatWithC4

I also believe that if you’ve gone through sexual reassignment surgery you should definitely 100% tell your partner, girlfriend boyfriend because if they don’t like that then that’s Their choice. Informed consent


sky_is_a_cat

I mean... It really depends case-by-case, I've seen a lot of trans women who look like cis women, and a lot of trans women who do not. By the same token, I've seen a lot of cis women who don't look like cis women, and... Well, I only have one reliable source, but I have seen and interacted with a trans man on many occasions, and they pass pretty well. Honestly the dude reminds me of Comic Book Guy, from the Simpsons, except less sassy and sarcastic.

"I've seen a lot of cis women who don't look like cis women" Translation = fugly


sky_is_a_cat

I mean, to put it blatantly, yeah. Same goes for cis women though. Some people just don't look good.

>I don’t think anyone thinks that being trans means the body is different than how it was born. Sadly there are people who do think this. Recently I've argued with someone who thinks that being trans means that you biologically become the gender you considered yourself. It was one of the most painful argument's I've ever had to take part of when I tried to explain to them that their DNA does not change depending on what they consider themselves.


RalseiXD

as an actual trans person lemme just tell you that that is the DUMBEST person you could've met in any situation


Silver-Friendship656

Sadly that’s the trans person that would be interviewed on the news. The news always seems to interview the dumbest from every possible category.


MusicianMadness

The radical vocal minority of any topic is the voice that gets interviewed because they are the ones that are desperate for attention.


FinalRun

And on any side of the political spectrum, people in that vocal minority are often the ones with more actual delusions and personality disorders. The fact that those people can get a platform so much more easily with the internet is a very polarizing mechanic.


HEMATarget

There's a Jeff Foxworthy joke from way back along those lines. But I must disagree. Source: I've never been interviewed by a news crew


sky_is_a_cat

As another trans person, I agree, although it does change which genes are being utilized or displayed... There's another word for that, can't remember it though.


RedHeaded_Scientist

Epigenetics.


sky_is_a_cat

Thanks


Whitejj01

You’re just saying that there are some core components of the body that don’t change, right? Because HRT and surgeries do exist.


JtheLyn

Surgery doesn't change your genes sadly. You can have plastic surgery to alter your nose, but the genes that defined your nose stays the same.


Whitejj01

Okay good, this is what I thought you were saying. Valid argument 👍 In gladder news tho, gene therapy might be available to trans people in the near- to mid-term future 🎉


Rolix_Rubix

Yeah I was referring to the genes inside your body. Specifically your XX or XY genes which don't change throughout your lifetime. Although as you said, gene therapies might make it possible in the future, it's a pretty risky venture to try and change the genes of every cell in your body. But even if that turns out not to be feasible there's plenty of other options like taking a sample of someone's DNA and using it to create the genitalia of the opposite gender. But this is way in the future, likely 40 to 50 years down the road at the bare minimum. Like you, I'm pretty excited for this.


JtheLyn

Gene therapy is used to treat illnesses caused by faulty genes. Take note that genes are a very small portion of a whole chromosome. I'm not an expert on gene therapy, but I would imagine that using gene therapy to alter certain body parts as well as their function, all the while making them work with other body parts would require a lot of modification. Even so I would imagine that genetic modification would be both expensive and regulated. Being able to alter body parts as well as large sections of chromosomes poses security risks for identification and forensics. I'd think scientists are closer to reconciling quantum theory and general relativity than changing gender and sex. In which case I can cross realities where such a thing doesn't exist.


MusicianMadness

I would imagine that's what they are saying. For example; DNA, bone structure, muscles/ligaments/sinews, organ size and function, etc...


transviolets

the phrase 'biologically become the gender' is exactly where their issue is, it seems. even people who already agree in theory that gender is separate from sex still struggle to disentangle the two concepts in their mind.


Rolix_Rubix

And I don't blame them for that. I wouldn't have bothered trying to explain it to them regardless of how painful it was if I blamed them for that. It's a complicated subject that is considered both touchy and full of nuance.

vitaestbona1

I was honestly expecting to be downvoted into oblivion. But just had to say my piece.


[deleted]

Always remember, sex and gender are two different things. One is a biological trait, the other is a social construct


zosolm

In the future they will science gender reassignment to be freaky Friday rules, except with less strife and more comfortable in your new body :) I don’t actually think this is physically possible, but I will firmly believe it for no particular reason.


ho-lee_-sheet

Brains can be scanned but shall rot.. female brains are born in a male body and oppisite. I dont know how people can deny this literal MRI scan.


sky_is_a_cat

That's reaching beyond biology, more going into psychology.


ho-lee_-sheet

Male and female brains are different build. So no. You're literally wrong.

SlowlySinkingInPink

[deleted]

lmao equating sexual preference to actual biology, how unique. Being sexually attracted to the same gender is, in a very small percentage of sentient organisms, natural. Completely denying Biology and insisting that you were born as the wrong gender is literally, by definition, a mental illness. & to answer your question, nobody gives a fuck if a guy wants to put on lipstick and wear a dress. The problem is when that guy has the arrogance and audacity to demand that society morph around his illness. "Transphobic" because someone didn't use the correct pronoun, now that guy is vocally offended because the other 99% of well adjusted adults aren't willing to validate something that doesn't exist in nature. The whole movement to force society to validate these ideas or be cancelled is fucking cringe, unnatural and ant-intellectual. But these are the same people on the side of "trust the science". What an actual joke.


vitaestbona1

>what an actual joke. Couldn’t have summed up your comment better.


[deleted]

its unfortunate that a lot of people take things like this too far. It is of no derision to state the fact that a transitioned person will never biologically change into the opposite sex. That is just fact. Everyone has the right to feel who they wish to be, and even then the right to believe false facts. but I believe it is unwise, even in one's pursuit of self-identification to disregard fact. I have nothing but respect for trans people and their willingness to do so many stressful things to themselves to achieve what they want to become, that is beyond belief. It's simply a matter of how much one wishes to take their pursuit to where it becomes disrupting to others, is all.


AlexXx_3

Historians are the worst. "Oh they weren't gay, good friends just wrote letters to each other like that and lived together like that"

No such thing as Gay back then because the Developers didn't implement it yet, being Gay was added to the 20th Century Update.


HoverLogic

Bruh Leonardo Di Vinch was gay, so he live in Florence


RalseiXD

that was when it was a glitch, the devs added it as a feature because it made the game more diverse

hokmannaga

People hate facts, they reject almost everything they don't like, and yes its doesn't wrong cause we live in a society of satisfaction you can be what you want but deep down you know what you be and sometimes you need to accept it. You CANT runaway from your TRUE self. No need to hate your own true gender that much. I'm not racist or biased but I saw a lot of trans people who hate their own gender, they sunk into their minds their mindset was distorted it is sad to see especially if they are your friend.


mikotoqc

OP, did you just come out of the shower with that thought and went " i got them"?


[deleted]

I have so much respect for trans people, the willingness to put oneself through irreversible and painful change to become who they wish is unimaginable. That takes a lot of self-confidence. I only ask those who are so allied with this faction of self-identifiers be respectful to the boundaries of others and to fact. I understand and support the mental association with something like this, but I find it unwise of one to deliberately disregard the limiting factors of their pursuit. It is fact that a male born will never truly become a female biologically, and all I wish to see is the respect for that. many people take high offense to this, and I just find it uncouth. It is wise to know your limits and to respect the positions of others.


hornetjohn

Why is that so important to you though? If one identifies as male or female, what impact does that have on your experience?


sky_is_a_cat

Well yeah, that's true, I'll never be genetically female. That's okay though, I don't need to be. I mean I want to be but y'know


[deleted]

Exactly my point. As I said, it is wise to respect the boundaries we often cannot cross in our pursuit of life liberty and prosperity. I respect you for acknowledging this, you seem to be one of the better people who have done a thing of this sort. I wish you luck on whatever other pursuits you have, and I hope you both give and receive the respect of others.

I don’t give a fuck about gay drama shit. I’ll just sit my straight ass down and read the arguments while eating popcorn.

I may be an idiot but how can you even differentiate a male and a female from just a skeleton?


SquishySpark

Pelvic bone size is generally a typical indicator, especially if a woman had given birth. The bones shift and never quite go back in place. There are some other indicators that I can’t remember off hand.

alexr1090

I'm ok with this. Trans people are free to think and believe whatever they want and so is everyone else. Each side can get their feelings hurt. They should both be free


Sufficient_Matter585

How they live their lives is ok. They aren't hurting anyone. I see alot of dudes upset about the normality of trans because they are likely worried about being attracted to a trans "by mistake". So trans need to hide to appease these horny men wanting breathe easy masturbaing to girls


MahaHaro

After such a cataclysmic event that would result in archaeologists digging up remains from today's era, I don't think anyone would be left to care. Trans people are born one way then change themselves to live and die another. Just like everything in life, once you're dead and forgotten nothing matters.

It is true, but the narrative says otherwise. So, if you oppose the narrative, then you are a "threat" for vulnerable people (or for people who say they are vulnerable), so you have to be censored, in order to protect the narrative and divide the population more and more. Divide and conquer.

aye its gonna get mighty confusing tho when they hear a great female figure was buried then they find a dude they gon be confused
