My replies are fucking broken and I wrote too much and went off topic.what happened at your big troon mitzvah?
My longtime friend and I had a spat over text even though I told myself that wouldn't say anything online that could incriminate me. We're still friends even though he said he's very suprised and disappointed in me. I brought up how fucked this trans shit is and he just jumped to "why is it your business what's in anyone's pants" and "it takes years for people to get treatment" when I brought up things like children getting hormones on their first visit to the doc. I know I was pushing an argument on something neither of us would budge on.
At the get-together, I avoided the troon. He had his hair long and a padded bra. He dressed in normal clothes (aside from the bra) so at least he didn't look like a fool. I was told there was going to be another trans person there, who absolutely was a colorful mess and who I also avoided. My longtime friend had said that the last few years of my life had changed me (military) in a joking way, probably a nod to my apprehension. Nothing else was brought up. The suprise extra people meant that I could avoid the trannies and sit far away from tilhem.
Trans in the military is absolutely an issue I could go on and on about. It's way more complicated than people understand on a surface level. I wish I knew what I know now when these ideas were being floated around back then. Of course the damn military changed me. Theres a zillion of us, and having trans in the mix is a whole other mess. As someone who browsed 4chan for a million years (an arguable male space), and then in a department of 95% men in the military, you learn how men are. And also see how tifs are a joke and how tims are predators. Moving on...
My recent brushes with this issue have shown that I can't hide my feelings on this. I've met a young girl at a friend's family gathering, who I bonded very quickly with, but who goes by "he" and named herself after a fictional character from a game series that I guessed right off the bat. I rolled with what she wanted (didn't question anything, including name), but I had another lifelong friend ask me wtf was going on with "him" when we were in private and I "peaked" (I hate the phrase) the shit out of her. She is not into social politics at all and very open to what I had to say. She's a tough woman and doesn't need my advice, but I hope I filled her in on this phenomenon.
Her sister is another story, who works with alphabet people in a more normie job, and who also doesn't risk ever offending people. She just wants everyone to be happy. This means slightly bending to gender demands. This has really shown me that I can't hold back from sperging out on this issue. I snapped at her a little at our last get-together when she wasn't sure how to approach a vendor because she couldn't they if they were a "he, she, or they". Like, did it fucking matter? Just give them your damn money. Their gender should be "hey, you" in this situation. This friend also works with children, with a co-worker who goes by "they" and is apparantly very pretentious about it. They get upset when you don't use "they", and it is apparantly very confusing for the children to play along with this. If my friend sees how attention-seeking this behavior is, why does she bother to play along? She just wants to make people happy, though - dare I say it, typical female submissive behavior. But also something that is natural and a defense mechanism in these days. If you don't play along, you get financially punished and socially ostracized for defending yourself. When men prance in dresses of their own free will, they are apparantly also ostracized for expressing their true selves, but I digress...
