Sorry to derail discussion but on an unrelated note since you seem to be the most reasonable and level headed person here, are there any transgender people you would consider to be sane and alright individuals? You have gone on record saying that many trans people are nice and do not have the odious personality so many people demonise here as complete nutcases on a regular basis. You seem to not share there vitriol and do acknowledge some are fairly harmless peopel who do positively contribute to society unlike the vast sways of ‘troons’ and trans lolcows like keffals and Liz Dong.
If so what are their names? I’d be interested in seeing a list of people that are the ‘best’ trans people you’ve ever come across and are the best case scenario that even the most arduent anti-trans people here would argue are fairly respectable people. Do you think you could name at least 10?
I don't know if I'd put a number or a quantifier on it. I don't know if there are "many" "nice" trans people. There are some.
One thing to keep in mind is that it's easy to get away from the fact that gender dysphoria is a mental illness. And mental illnesses tend to cluster together. You don't often have just one.
And on top of that, the social environment troons socialize in online tends to attract certain personality types. They attract vulnerable people, along with a mess of other troons dead set on exploiting the vulnerable ones. Both groups usually have personality disorders. NPD is a big one.
This isn't necessarily their fault, but intent or not, they still end up being shitheads at times. Like with Billy. Not his fault he got diddled, but it's his fault he's passing it along to the next generation.
The reason I bring this up, is to make the point that even the best functioning trannies are still ultimately mentally ill on some level and that has consequences. There is no such thing as a "normal" tranny. There's better functioning trannies, but that's the best you'll get.
Having such a strong desire to fuck your body up is ultimately crippling to some degree. Same thing with people who want to self harm in any other ways.
Likewise, in a similar way, guys who get insane body mods to join the circus or go crazy with facial tattoos have something funky going on psychologically. It's rare for someone to get into that stuff and be 100% psychologically normal.
So I think all trannies have a little something funny going on psychologically. Even the "good" ones.
That being said, I think Blaire White is fairly level headed, all things considered. Buck Angel is very mature and reasonable. (Being female probably helps with that.)
On the other end of the spectrum, there's troons with good intentions who are important allies in dealing with troonery, who, unfortunately, are still damaged people who can be difficult to get along with at times.
It's been awhile since I dealt with him (her?), but from what I remember, Scott Newgent was a really forceful campaigner to smother childhood transitioning in the crib. Scott was an FTM transman who was a lesbian for most of his life. He transitioned at age 42 and his surgeries, including a phalloplasty, were fucking horribly botched. (Though there's no such thing as a "good" phalloplasty. Just less shit ones.)
He's understandably pretty bitter and can be difficult to deal with at times. I don't blame him, but it really lays bare the psychological trauma trans politics puts one through.
There's no harmless way to deal with troonery. It needs to end.
