If being a woman is so awful and society is dominated by men, why don't more women take T and become men? Seems like a no brainer if you truly believe men rule the world and being a woman is only suffering.
because being a woman is tutorial mode and every single woman alive has a much easier life than any man ever couldthat's why if you just look at people willing to take hrt, there's way more amabs doing that than afabs.
>>38584005HRT yes, but 2/3rds of the adolescent patients in gender clinics are afabs. However about half of them go into remission by 25. Only about 30% of FtMs take T, but almost 90% get top surgery. Almost 90% of MtFs take E but only 30% get bottom surgery. Same disease, very different treatment.
>>38584017>patients in gender clinicsaka women want attentionthey don't actually take testosterone or stick with it
>>38584022It possible but I don't think so. I think they actually had GD and got over it without transition. I think the abnormality in the brain which causes it can repair itself in puberty. Because nobody has been able to devise a test which can differentiate the trenders from the genuine cases. It should be noted that the same is not true for child onset GD in AMABs, which have a nearly 99% rate of transition. If your little boy says he's actually a little girl, guess what?Unfortunately those little get fucked over by dishonest statistics. Rather than saying 50% of AFABs with GD go into remission after puberty, the statistics say 33% of adolescents with GD go into remission after puberty. Which means those poor little trans girls get to endure male puberty even though the treatment for MtF teens is safe and reversible.
>>38584076being a woman or a man is not a feeling that the opposite sex can experience and then embody with the right chemicals or surgeries
>>38583995Picrel is not that hard to do. Men are just stupid and filled with rage.
>>38584088Nobody said it was. Gender Dysphoria is the desire to be of the other sex, not the belief you are of the opposite sex. It's a compulsion, not a delusion. And it's caused by a birth defect in the brain. Gender Dysphoria is cured by Gender Affirming Care. Transition is the treatment for a disease.
>>38584076I mean, the simplest explanation would be that theyre just attention seekers? Esp considering how often "trenders" enjoy flaunting secondary female sex chars, or how many of them have cishet bfs
>>38584121trannies believe they have female soulsyou are men with autism
>>38583995You cannot change your birth sex. You can PRETEND you're the opposite sex, and trick a few people into thinking you are, but you cannot become a man if you were born female.
>>38583995When females transition for this reason, they usually detroon.
>>38584174sure anon
>>38584201Bc theyre pussiesFemale roiders stay on test
>>38583995>why don't more women take T and become men?because you don't transition on whim, you absolute retard
>>38584174Are you deep enough in the closet to have met Aslan yet?
>>38584203And also, what about all the detransitioners? It's proof that trans people don't actually exist, or if they do exist, they're very rare. Detransitioners thought they were trans too, and found out they aren't.
>>38583995Because according to the best available science, gender identity seems to be immutable and the vast majority of people are cisgender.
>>38584226I read every book in our children's library growing up and by far the worst kids books were by him.
>>38584226This sentence doesn't make sense ‽¿
>>38584159Yeah I don't think the ftfemboys on tiktok are the ones clogging the gender clinics. Shrinks aren't completely fucking stupid. They'd pick up pretty quickly on the standard attention seekers. >>38584161I don't believe souls have a gender. I believe I have a malfunction in my brain which makes it impossible for me to live my life as a man. The reason I believe that is because there's been like a hundred studies looking at MRIs of trannybrain and there are very clearly differences. It's close to autism but it's not the same as autism and it's much much easier to treat. >>38584174Yeah we know, that's why we talk about our AGAB, our assigned gender at birth. I am amab, assigned male at birth, but I transitioned to live my life as close as possible to how a woman lives her life, thus TRANS-woman. >>38584227Literally what I was just explaining before you decided to be obnoxiously misinformed all over the thread. >>38584017 >>38584076
>>38584233Does being constantly negative for no reason ever get boring?
>>38584276he was a christcuck, fuck him
>>38584257I think an ftm who wants to detrans will do it, but an mtf would just kill themselves because that's how bad their situation feels to them or something. I just don't like the idea of being forced to call a trans person by the wrong birth sex. It's getting out of hand. And also I think some kids are gay or unsure about their sexuality, and being told that taking estrogen is the cure for their depression and teenaged angst. That's predatory and bullshit, and these faggots chasers and transbians that groom kids online should be killed.
>>38583995This is so autistic lol
>>38584294You didn't answer the question.
>>38584235Of course it does. The only possible reason someone could spend this much time insisting trans people aren't real is because they're desperate to avoid the possibility they're trans. Even hatred has no reason to spread itself. You're calling out for help whether you realize it or not.
>>38584318Look fag, my mom made me wear makeup and get clothes when I was a little kid, because she was crazy and hated me. Some people have real trauma. So I feel bad for kids being forced into this, and they can't say no. If I was trans I would just be trans. You're literally one of those ppl that don't care about kids.
>>38583995Because men have to work for the things they have and women are given what they have because they are women. This is why the FtM detrans rate is quite high and why women feel invisible after they turn about 34.
>>38584295>I just don't like the idea of being forced to call a trans person by the wrong birth sex.Nobody is asking you to do a fucking thing nigger. You're in our space right now. We don't need your approval just leave us alone. >And also I think some kids are gay or unsure about their sexuality, and being told that taking estrogen is the cure for their depression and teenaged angstWe don't supply estrogen to teenagers, and DEFINITELY not testosterone. In the case oif AMABs after TWO psychiatrists have independently assessed the child to confirm the diagnosis, puberty blockers are supplied to delay puberty until the child is old to choose for themselves. Given that the result of this process pretty much almost always results in a healthy transition in late teens, and in the few cases where transition does not take place there is no long term harm once puberty is allowed to proceed normally, everyone is actually pretty happy with this. The issue is AFABs can't take puberty blockers in adolescence with a high chance of sterility. Which is why we don't give them puberty blockers. We just give them birth control to stop menstuation and let them dress as boys until they're old enough that we can sure it's a genuine case, and then (if they want and most don't) we give them testosterone to masculinize them.

>>385843481/2You actually almost made me type sigh in asterisks. I could just walk away from this post laughing knowing how wrong you are, but I'm so grateful you opened up to me in the way you have that I want to try to be open too.Please work to get yourself out of the headspace of making (radically inaccurate) assumptions about people. I've been a teacher of varying capacities to a wide age range for close to ten years now. Inb4 GROOMER, but the reality is that I'm just very skilled at working with kids and very good at it too. Just this morning I was just told by the office manager of a site I substitute at that they love having me because of how well the kids respond to me. I also volunteer with the children's ministry at my church and am proud to say I'm appreciated and respected by the other volunteers. Advocating for trans peoples' rights and for their right to pursue medical care, yes including children, is not the evil you and your friends seem to think it is.I want to emphasize that again: the RIGHT to pursue medical care. What you actually claim I don't know and don't want to assume, but the level of urgency you write with suggests you think every kid with any amount of gender dysphoria or nonconformity is immediately injected with hormones and thrown into an operating room. That's not the reality and obviously not what me or anyone like me advocates for. We are advocating for the law to allow for parents, doctors, and trans kids to make medical decisions in concert, after (usually) a long and appropriate period of reflection to ensure transition is the right decision. Parents and children in many states throughout the country and possibly the entire country once Trump enters office will not have the right to make the informed decision to respond to gender dysphoria with medical care.
>>38584419Fuck off newfag.
>>385843482/2 Now I am so fucking sorry for what your mom did to you. That's fucked, and the definition of child abuse. I can't imagine what that was like and I'm glad you were able to heal any amount, to become the impassioned person you are. And you are superimposing your trauma over the experiences of trans kids. You are, it seems, assuming that most or all child transition is "forced" in the way your "participating" in femininity was forced.The situation you describe is not the majority of trans kids' situations. I would never say that it can't happen; I'm sure there are kids who have transitioned who felt pressure from someone and may not have transitioned in a vacuum. Over and over again studies and statistics show those cases are an incredibly rare minority, just like we'd expect given how shocking and horrifying your own experience of "forced transition" was, so to speak.What you essentially seem to be suggesting is that because of your own tragic experience with forced gender nonconformity, we should completely abolish and outlaw other peoples' ability to manage their struggles with gender in the manner they seem fit. You advocate for the abolition of care, we advocate for the existence of the right to pursue it.If you opened your heart and took yourself out of your prejudices, actually examined the language of the "groomers" you're talking about, you'd find that virtually everyone who helps trans youth AND adults figure themselves out goes to insane lengths to avoid any kind of pressure or "brainwashing." Our goal is to help people figure themselves out and provide a safe space to do the kind of thinking most people (i.e. you) do not allow. Are there creepy motherfuckers who want people of all kinds to transition for nefarious reasons? Sure, I've no doubt, just like there are creepy motherfuckers who might try to rape me when I head home one night. That's not the majority of people and I'm not in a health state if I think it is.
>>38584017me when i lie
>>385843483/2 (not done sorry)Say out of 100 trans kids, five will turn out to have made a mistake for whatever reason--social pressure, honest mistake, misinterpreting another issue, etc. If that doesn't sound fair, let's say 10 out of 100. And keep in mind that 10/100 is a very conservative (no pun intended) estimate given the results of many studies on the subject.So what you're suggesting is that we force nine trans kids to go through the wrong puberty, the very thing you're saying will be so horrible for a cis kid to experience, to save that one cis kid the pain of having made a mistake in transitioning or caved to social pressure or experienced manipulation or abuse. Again with conservative estimates; it's probably far fewer.I'm not willing to accept that the mental and physical wellbeing of nine trans kids is somehow outweighed by the mental and physical wellbeing of one cis kid. But I feel it says a lot that that's the thinking at work here when we lay it all bare: that protecting one cis kid is worth almost a dozen trans kids' happiness.I may not be able to reply anymore because I'm already up way past my bedtime and I'm barely any use to the kids I teach when I'm sleep deprived.I want to repeat how sorry I am for you mom. Incredibly fucked up and you didn't deserve it and I hope you've healed. And I'm sorry for how the shitheads here probably treat you over it. Just please don't allow your trauma to convince you that everyone who advocates for kids' right to be trans is a groomer. It's fucking sad and like, the villain outcome of the story. I don't know.I care about you as much as I do the kids, whether you believe me or not.
