is it really a social contagion?
>>
Yes. Rates of trooning have increased as trooning has become more visible. Look at the huge rise after the "tipping point."
>>
>>42205395
gender dysphoria? probably not
people transitioning? probably to some extent
>>
>>42205455
Gender dysphoria is iatrogenic.
>>
>>42205395
Christfaggotry? Yes
>>
>>42205462
it could be for some i guess but there's definitely a lot of people for whom its absolutely not. i think thats pretty indisputable
>>
>>42205485
It is a progression
It intensifies as people keep thinking about it and consuming trans content
>>
>>42205416

Left-handedness is also a social contagion then?
>>
>>42205509
The tranny chart doesn't look like that tho
>>
>>42205509
yea. left handedness stems from either having a left handed parent (monkey see monkey do) or constantly giving the child items on the left to initiate dominance. handedness is taught.
>>
>>42205513
Yes it does, it just hasn't gotten to the leveling phase yet.

Troons fucked up with all this self-ID shit. When you ask if being trans is a social contagion, what you're really asking is whether any of the uncountable number of things that lead to you being hecking valid are social contagion. And the answer is like maybe? I can't say for sure but it's hard for me to say no. I don't think gender dysphoria that only improves with transition is a social contagion, but it's fascist to think that's the only way to be trans now I guess
>>
>>42205519
>source: I want it to be true
>>
>>42205509
>things like autism and left handedness trend towards some capacity in the population and are not social contagions. We can assume being trans will do the same, and that if it does it is therefore not a social contagion.
I'm pro-trans and think this argument is retarded. I'm so glad I grew up on the New Atheist battle of ideas pseud internet and not the internet bubbles and video essays pseud internet
>>
>>42205525
What are you proposing as an alternative then? That the rates simply keep climbing until we reach 100% tranny?
>>
>>42205544

Yeah, after thinking about it I think you're right that it's a poor argument

I do think identifying as trans and having dysphoria are two different things worth distinguishing when it comes to this topic
>>
>>42205516
The opposite of what you said is the truth
>>
>>42205544
It did level off in the finland/swedish tranny sample
>>
>>42205581
What we're actually seeing is more and more males getting their sexual orientation flipped into autoheterosexuality after learning about medical transition and realizing they can be their own girlfriend. I don't think the limit is 100% but it could be a double digit percentage.
>>
>>42205601
>autoheterosexuality
most retarded bullshit in existence
>>
>>42205582
>identifying as trans
logic of the infected.
if you identify as trans you don't get it, you don't have gender dysphoria, and you got swept up in the social trend.
when trans acceptance hasn't increased and trans visibility was widespread; the people that identify as trans are the same alternative lifestyle types. the type to be hipsters a few years ago or emo before that. nerds that get tattoos of anime bullshit.
when you spread trans visibility you forcibly outted stealth people and spread rogd. notice there was a surge in ftm's that has rescinded.
>>
>>42205601
>but it could be a double digit percentage.
lol

Though ok, let's say 10+% of the population is trans, why exactly is that supposed to be a bad thing?
>>
>>42205581
Yes nigga you're gonna find yourself transitioning too before you know it, and so will your parents who hate trannies and all the chuds of the world who want them killed
>>
>>42205395
Yes. We're already seeing a steep decline in self-identification as "neither male nor female" amid younger generations. Granted this is specifically referring to non-binary people, but it does show a very clear indication that people can and do transition just for clout.
>>
>>42205519
Can someone send the tranny chart
>>
>>42205416
This board has changed from trans girls to hrt femboys, hrt incels, and chasers like veltail ending up on hrt. This is very bad.
>>
>>42205630
most trannies are much less productive than cissies
>>
>>42205630
you must pay taxes and purchase property and breed and send children to daycare you see
it's very important
this is all very important
you must not transition
>>
>>42205761
Could this have anything to do with systematic discrimination in employment and in many cases poor access to healthcare? Boggles the mind.
>>42205872
Trans people are able to do all of those things, actually.
>>
>>42205395
>watch the video
>he's literally describing ROGD
>"it just hit me like a ton of bricks"
>"it was like a massive wave"
it totally isnt real though
>>
>>42205516
LMAO
>>42205544
oh my science!!!!
>>
>>42205872
Dont worry, john 50 has already done all that.

By the definition listed here anything society dislikes, say truth, can be classified as a "contagion" thus the word means nothing just like "conspiracy theory" means "uncomfortable truth" so it is that "social contagion" simply means any change someone doesn't like. So you could say racial equality is a "social contagion" if you asked people in the 1950's

trooning out is normalized so people are less afraid to do so. MANY MANY people were holding back troon thoughts, also who doesn't want to play character creator with their own body?
>>
>>42205649
i cant wait for everyone to be a tranny
>>
>>42205684
hrt femboy was a really goated way of rebranding, they knocked off a lot of fence sitters.
>>
>>42205617
or you know you could just be a pretty boy twink who wants to be prettier

Aka mid life crisis.

>watch the video
>he's literally describing this made up thing no serious study has ever verified which happens to present exactly like a well known and widely recognized neurological condition
How do these hons not get that their suffering simply isn't real? Why don't they go to a psychiatrist who will inevitably tell them conversion therapy doesn't work and they should just transition?
>>
this man shows signs of being brainfucked by porn and hypersexualized media
the damage is so pervasive it even manifests in the way he speaks
