I also think in the online world you can be anything, and nobody can ever accuse you of lying.Someone can claim a trans identity, not post a picture, and it would be a "Who's going to know that I'm lying?".Being queer in the online world gets you praised and endless affection for being special and different.Hell there are kids who are getting caught lying about having DID and Tourettes syndrome on tiktok, yet people think nobody would lie about having a trans identity?Yeah I call BS.Even from my own experience I had a cousin who 3 years ago claimed to be genderfluid and bisexual.Needless to say she dropped the act a year ago.
I blame the response to COVID.
While I think Elagabalus was almost certainly just being slandered, and troonery probably wasn’t one of his crimes, the fact that he (and many others) are so consistently accused of “wearing women’s clothes” and “taking a woman’s role” does suggest that this was a thing some men were doing. Our sources from the time are pretty much exclusively “respectable” upper class men who had as little public association with actors, whores, and other degenerates as possible, but it does seem like there would have been something like Roman drag shows, based simply on the consistency of the accusations lobbied at populist emperors. Men dressing as women and being sodomised definitely seems to have been a thing, just not one posh people ever acknowledged outside of propaganda against their opponents.
This is funny considering theres a section of far right Evropa larpers who like small dicks and being effeminate cause effeminate body type and behavior with a small penis is a sign of aristocratic blue blood, supposedly, while the opposite is a sign of tribal brute blood, supposedly. This is mainstreamed in America as BBC syndrome.
They really shot themselves in the foot here. I used to think, "Damn, that bitch is ugly." Now I think, "Damn, that's a fucking dude."
I’m really not a woman who necessarily gets “offended” by a lot of this stuff easily but this does frustrate me a lot. They have no idea what a period is actually like. I can get severe pains some months to the point that I’m vomiting. Watching a guy talk about how he gets stomach cramps and eats chocolate ice cream once a month compare it to that is ridiculous.
It's a placebo. Trans people are obsessive about their bodies, and are particularly sensitive to the changes during hormone treatment, combine that with the nonsense ideas spread around the community and boom. Suddenly they miraculously notice these 'female' body sensations they never had before (that also miraculously dissappear after taking a big dump but sshh)
it is utter bullshit. A period is the shedding of the inner lining of the uterus, something they do not posses. Having cramps ect. is not the period, that is PMS and often happens in the week leading up to the period. Something stupid about this is that the troons always have ALL of the pms symptoms like craving, fever, mood-swings, acne, back-pain, cramp, when the majority of women usually have like one or two of these pms symptoms. If you experience every symptom of PMS you need a doctor asap.
Same sex attraction feels good and natural to Gay people. At best, conversion therapy can open them up to healing the trauma scaring them away from the opposite sex, making them happy bisexuals.
Excellent post.
It’s malingering in a word. Anything to shore up the axiom that trans women are women, even if it’s pretending to get cramps (or a little more generously, they’re experiencing psychosomatic symptoms of cramps.)
Well, I think it’s because troons tend to be in such dire straits economically that focusing their energy on their gender shit is a distraction from the bigger problems like housing and labor. And the limousine liberals welcome this discussion because the more they talk about troonery the less they have to talk about the class struggle.
It’s astonishing how these people can exercise critical thinking perfectly well when it comes to religion, homeopathy, UFOs, Bigfoot and whatever, and yet when it comes to the trans issue, that part of their brain completely switches off and we get diarrhoea-level thinking about sex being a spectrum, everything is a social construct, men have no physical advantages over women, everyone has a gender soul… it’s genuine anti-science right up there with faith healing.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: we've done a LOT of things that would have never flown in years past to accept transgenderism, from emotional blackmail to encouraging the demand of validation of others.
HRT is indeed not the correct term for troons taking hormones to mimic the other sex, but the semantic in me is still bothered by the term "wrong-sex hormones" for reasons already explained. "Exogenous hormones" is a decent enough middle ground for me. It doesn't imply that it is "correcting" a physical deficiency, nor does it have the connotation that estrogen=woman or testosterone=man.
