Again; it's adults making decisions for someone else living their life a way the adult didn't want. It was incredibly wrong in the past when it was adults trying to "cure" their kids from being gay and I think it'd be wrong for parents to do the same in that scenario.

So you don't believe in vaccines? And before a response of "it's not an illness" (which to be frank is a deflection) the process is similar. Transgender individuals go through psychologists and psychiatrists, take drugs, and some take surgery. And you can't just randomly proclaim "I'm trans!" You have to be officially "diagnosed" to prevent things like a perverted man saying he suddenly is a woman to go into the lady's room. The hypothetical treatment that Admiral posed would act exactly like a vaccine. Solving everything before birth.
I mean, even if you say it can only be up to the kid, couldn't the kid "transition" back later anyway if they decided their parents were wrong? There is no downside.
Either you solve everything before birth and complete their future transition better than they would have if they transitioned after birth- or they think you're wrong and just transition themselves after birth anyway

Also, I'm glad your enjoying my friend's site that I helped fund. If you have any issues with it don't be afraid to log into the site and offer suggestions to improve.

How did we get from "curing the gay away" and curing trans people" to vaccines?

You know, something to protect a child against actual illnesses?

Did you read my post? I explained in detail how the process transpeople have to go through is pretty much the same as an illness, even if you're not comfortable with that word. You're not arguing points, you're arguing semantics. Can you tell me a downside of using the pill?

It's clockwork if anything how that particular camp always reveals themselves to be cruel assholes at worst and sexists at best the moment you remind them of the woman involved.

It gets especially fucking eerie when one notices how many pro-lifers around here are virgin bitter-beards, because suddenly one realizes what they're getting at with the whole "women are expendable breeding stock with no right to their own bodies". It's the biggest fucking hypocrisy of pro-lifers *in general* that they don't even view women as human beings in this equation, they pretty much *have* to dehumanize them to hold the opinions that they do.

There's no real validity in bringing up biological sex as it always is brought up by people who refuse to acknowledge intersex people exist because chromosome pairings besides)

This is incorrect, most intersex people who grow up in normal conditions have one dominant gender and one dominant sex just like everyone else even if there are some things out of the ordinary. Intersex people don't have differently structured brains than anyone else. Biological sex is still key because that's what is linked to gender otherwise why can't you identify as a tree or a multidimensiongender?

By the way isn't even a word.

That's NOT what being trans means, and that's NOT why there's suicidal rates following surgery. For suicide, the main reason? Financial devastation

That is literally what trans means. Trans means change through opposite ends. Again, non-binary gender is made up and not accepted by most fields of science. It's the term for when people don't abide by gender roles but those are social constructs while we're talking about the biological aspects. And where are your sources saying suicidal rates following surgery is solely because of financial devastation and not also because they still don't feel comfortable with themselves? That's still a big part of it. Everyone has financial troubles including some accidentally investing a lot in something that tanked and having to start from scratch.

binaries
As far as presentation goes, there's no right or wrong way to dress as a woman. To say otherwise is extremely flawed reasoning and also punishes those who are just starting their transition or come from a different cultural background.

As I said, nonbinary people isn't accounted for since if they're serious they're pretty much just people with mild psychosis. And visibility already exists without the need to making the trans part itself part of your identity. People know diabetics are a thing even though they don't take it upon themselves to announce having diabetes is part of their identity. Again, most transpeople want to be seen as all woman. I would ask you if you would rather be considered "that woman" or "that transwoman" but I already know you'd answer the latter so there's no point.
When I say presentation, I meant their character, not their clothing.

gunplagirl posted...

And if your only argument depends on a hypothetical I don't even need to reply seriously. But know this, by saying "it's in the best interest of you and not the child" you're still saying that being trans is bad.

It's not so much as bad, but being the literal issue itself. Normal transpeople don't want to be trans. I wonder if even you wouldn't rather prefer a biological XX female body which has all the the body functions and organs of a ciswoman instead of your male body with your penis, XY chromosomes and body functions that are only repressed because of drugs. And what if you don't have access to your drugs, like getting stranded while hiking?
And you're not helping the trans community any with your regressive mindsets suited only for your subsects. You've even gone so far as to just mindlessly consider "cis" the enemy, a complete no for any minorities trying to push their way up to acceptance. But I mean, hey none of those laws affect me any, I'm just very empathetic towards actual transgenders and don't want them to be dragged down with tumblrina types like you. Luckily, it seems most transgenders on this board denounce your opinions and don't consider you a voice for them.

As for your edit, if you think it's even remotely comparable to anti-vaccination hysteria then you're at least acknowledging being trans is dangerous, but the source is misplaced. You can't say you support trans people if you want to erase them, regardless of the intention behind how you'd erase them. Medically speaking there's very few medical risks in transitioning and all can come down to
A) external sources such as medical discrimination, abuse and other violence from others
And
B) hormone related risks which aren't very high and the issues are the exact same their cis counterparts face from the hormones.

Being trans isn't some lethal disease and isn't able to be spread to others. Intellectual dishonesty is not admirable at all.

No, being trans means you want to be the other sex. That's the whole point of the term. That's why so many people still commit suicide after transitioning and how transitioning itself has so many things like hormones and changing your lifestyle. You really think your child would WANT to go through transitioning, changing their lifestyle in front of their peers, to having to consistently use drugs as medication and at the end still not fully getting what they want? It's like being anti-vaccination because you're not thinking about your child. You're only thinking about your own selfish ideals.

Here's even a smaller example. When you get your transgender baby, are you going to name them their biological sex, or the gender of the sex they're transitioning to (if you can't bypass that by giving them an androgynous name)? If you choose the latter, it's basically the same thing here, bypassing a transition aspect, on a smaller less significant scale because you can't completely turn them into the sex they want like the hypothetical treatment. By your logic you would be naming them their biological sex because that way they'd get to be trans when they change it later rather than be born with the name they want.

Pray tell how wanting recognition of our identities as valid is possibly a bad idea? How is not wanting our identities dismissed based upon science that isn't even 100% accurate bad? How is wanting our identities accepted without regard for our presentation and passability remotely bad? The only person throwing bad ideas into others arguments here is your side, BTW. " well gunplagirl said something I don't agree with, maybe she also believes in these other things I don't agree with." Go ahead and find what views of mine are harmful though. And be sure to designate how, with regard to intersectional issues faced along socioeconomic and racial lines in particular. But that's expecting too much, I'm guessing? Because it would require you actually agree that privilege exists and minority groups don't have it.

Honestly, you're fighting AGAINST what most transgender people want. Acknowledging you as your gender identity IS recognizing you as your identity. But you also want being trans itself to be recognized? Isn't that completely against the aim of transgenderism They want to be viewed as the gender they are, not something different. You actually WANT to be seen as different from cis/biological women? Transgenders who are so uncomfortable of their biological sex that they feel dysphoric of their bodies certainly don't want that, to have people think there are any male aspects in their presentation.
This is what I mean. You're not fighting for actual transgenders. You're fighting for your little subsect of non-binary "tucutes" aka tumblrinas who treats gender like clothing. With your mindset you're literally going against what most people with dysphoria (you know, the ones with the most suicide and violence against them, and who actually have good reason to be treated as the other gender rather than "I'm special") desire. The mindset that harms the transgender community is yours.

Oh but wait, you brought up rape as though that's even fantastically reasonable as a comparison.

And I said you're not because you said " I must be" in a context after saying I'm not. Now, there's this whole concept in the English language where certain things can be implied or inferred. And the implication was very strong given the intonation.

Sure it is, rape being exonerated as something that can help people is just about as likely as something other than the brain that would locate gender. It's just a showing of how fantastically unreasonable your statements are. Again, what else could it be, your soul?
But then again you've once said biological sex doesn't even exist so I don't know why I'm arguing with a complete loon like you.

And suddenly you're saying that it's solely based on brain scans and genuineness into valid trans identities despite brain scans not even being concrete evidence at this point. In other words, you're using the present to parse the future in a hypothetical vacuum. And still you find a way to be transphobic.

You can meet all the other trans people in our world, there's always going to be caitlyn Jenners out there with bad views, internalized transmisogyny and a poor understanding of what actually needs to be done to improve the lives of trans people as a whole.

It would only be brain scans, what else would it be? Your anus? Or maybe you believe in souls? And of course we're talking about the present. Talking about anything other than the near future (which I don't believe will change the findings much) is a delusional person with no argument's method. Sure, anything can happen in the future, maybe one day we'll find out rape while encased in a newly discovered compound can make the victim gain eternal happiness and the future will decide that eternal happiness is above all, even consent and that our present way of thinking is backward and archaic.
But for now we're dealing with the present and rape is a completely immoral act of evil and should not be excused in any circumstances. And the only transpeople here with bad views and a poor understanding of what actually needs to be done to improve the lives of transpeople as a whole is you.
Though it's pretty amusing you're so quick to throw around transphobia even though you immediately denied that I might be transgender. I mean, I feel pretty "agender" right now. I don't consider myself either masculine or feminine or abide by either stereotype. That should qualify me as "agender". What else is needed right?
At the end of the day to deny your child what they literally intend to be because of some crazy identity politic ideals is just filthy selfishness and makes you no different than anti-vaxxers.

No, I'm just making fun of your specific mindset where apparently transgender isn't the concept that you're the opposite sex but just whatever the fuck you feel like. I'm met a few transgenders and none of them are like you, at least how you are currently. I think you were still rational 3 years ago but you've really dropped off the deep end.

who thinks being disabled is a part of your identity and proud of it so you can show off how different you are.

While wanting to be disabled when you are not would be insane, it is indeed part of your identity and you should not feel shame. If you grow up with a disability, it affects literally everything about you, good and bad. This is why you get trans people or Aspies or whoever that would not want to be cured outright if such a thing even existed. The worry is that it would reshape their entire identity, their very person, not just remove the bad stuff.

Yeah, and the reason you wouldn't give this treatment to your child is because you WANT them to be disabled. In my view, and the majority of the world, wanting your child to be disabled is probably not only more insane, but certainly more despicable than wanting yourself disabled.

I don't want anyone to be disabled. I just think genetic engineering is a huge moral question. My problem is I have a bad imagination and take overthink hypotheticals. If such a cure existed for my hypothetical fetus and it was developed ethically and all concerns were addressed, I would take it for them. But I wouldn't even want man to go down this road if it was unethical.

I didn't mean you specifically, just the mindset that not giving the treatment would be.
Honestly, I think that if you were to realize the child you're looking at's hypothetical scan and realize all the problems they'd have to face that are inherently tied with being transgender like dysphoria and hormones you'd likely use the treatment for their sake. I mean, the treatment in this scenario is basically meant to do what they will wish for when they grow up anyway.
The stuff like non-binaries and supposed transpeople who don't feel dysphoria (which means they probably don't really have as much of the brain differentiations if at all that people with dysphoria do) probably won't show up on the scan anyway (because they're not as genuine).

Oh, and I'm also transgender for the sake of this topic because that's apparently how this works in your demented world view.

You do realize non operative trans people and non binary genders exist?

Because no operations actually change your sex. It's just a superficial aesthetic and I'm sure many don't consider it worth the money and effort because of that. If there's an operation that fully changes your sex down to your chromosomes then if you still won't take it then you're not transgender, just a very emotionally confused masculine woman/feminine man.
And non-binaries are made up and have no relevancy here. People who are born with this hypothetical treatment can still become "nonbinary" by being a social outcast and growing up oddly.

Such a fundamental misunderstanding of what it is to be trans and what curing it prior to birth would entail.

Then explain it.

On the internet, where nearly recorded knowledge of man's history, you can't find it on your own? I charge clients for services. And emotional labor and teaching costs extra. Send me your PayPal and I'll send you an invoice.

I already have and all scientific studies and articles point to what I posted. You've likely been brainwashed by mentally ill tumblr outcast blogs who say you can be transanimals and that's why you're so afraid to share them, instead opting to go the shitposter with no actual evidence way.
Not to mention, if you weren't bullshitting (which you are) wouldn't it be all for your benefit to "enlighten" as many people as you can? The more people spread your views, the more you reach your goal. Or do you like being the "misunderstood" one while "anti-trans" mindsets and laws continue to propagate making life worse for you?

If you actually wanted to learn, you would be learning.

Tell me, do people ask you to render the summation of your existence, past present and future, before them as a mandatory part of discussion?

And no, I don't use tumblr. Anyone who thinks trans race like dolezal or trans species is a thing is completely wrong.

How is calling your ignorance out not expressing my views?

As for the laws? Even people who understand trans issues still can be for those laws, because of the fundamental misunderstanding that trans people's identities are valid, and tested in ways cis people never will have to deal with. But nah, clearly it is better to make trans people not exist instead of making it so trans people aren't systematically abused at every level with zero recourse in most cases.

No, you aren't calling ignorance out. You're just saying IZ RONG without actually explaining why which makes you a tool and the one in the wrong. Since if you can't even explain your point how valid can that point really be? And no, being trans is about as much of an identity as being diabetic is. It's something that you are, but not something you desire to be or the end goal. Trans literally means changing.

Gay and bi people don't desire and have no need to be straight. Trans people literally by definition WANT to be the other sex and their goal is to be as much of the opposite sex as possible. They don't want to be the brain trapped in the wrong body. If there's a one time magical ray that turns you into the opposite sex permanently they would take it in a heartbeat. And that's exactly what this hypothetical scenario is, saving your child from having to deal with hormones and the inner conflict of knowing their chromosomes and organs are of the opposite sex. There's nothing for gay and bi people to have to deal with other than society.
...Unless you're saying being trans itself is the thing you desire, not the opposite sex and that if a magical ray that could turn you into the other sex permanently exists you wouldn't take it since the idea that you're in the wrong body is what makes you special?

Try again. What part of that is a misunderstanding?

i have multiple transgender friends and they are all extremely depressed

gender dysphoria is a cruel disease so yes assuming you could stop gender dysphoria pre-birth i absolutely would

Every study out there regarding childhood transitioners shows they're as happy or more so than their peers. And much more than those who couldn't until they're adults aka post puberty.

The biggest hurdle is actually having our genders recognized, respected and having legal rights that are protected without needing to have lawyers or the ACLU involved for years at a time. For instance there's a doomsday bill that will revoke all trans rights save a few in the cities/ states that passed their own. But without the federal ones, it would make most of them much harder to enforce in any notable capacity.

And how about actually having to take all those medications and hormones and shit? Wouldn't you rather just, you know, physically be the sex you want to be? It's like saying your child should grow up with diabetes because using insulin and having to meticulously watch your meals isn't that much effort anyway rather than have them not have it at the beginning.
But then again, you're one of those true snowflake types who thinks being disabled is a part of your identity and proud of it so you can show off how different you are.
Honestly, I'm betting a small part of you would actually be more willing to MAKE your child transgender if something like that existed.

"I don't care if my child is a boy or girl, I'll love them regardless. Unless they're gay, bi or trans."

The official cis motto of always.

Gay and bi people don't desire and have no need to be straight. Trans people literally by definition WANT to be the other sex and their goal is to be as much of the opposite sex as possible. They don't want to be the brain trapped in the wrong body. If there's a one time magical ray that turns you into the opposite sex permanently they would take it in a heartbeat. And that's exactly what this hypothetical scenario is, saving your child from having to deal with hormones and the inner conflict of knowing their chromosomes and organs are of the opposite sex. There's nothing for gay and bi people to have to deal with other than society.
...Unless you're saying being trans itself is the thing you desire, not the opposite sex and that if a magical ray that could turn you into the other sex permanently exists you wouldn't take it since the idea that you're in the wrong body is what makes you special?

Not gonna lie, I'm a bit Wild Guns curious.

I like the whole shooting range aspect of it.
There is still, or at least last I knew, an Arcade at Lake George NY that still has one of those games.

Damn, arcades give me a lot of nostalgai

i have multiple transgender friends and they are all extremely depressed

gender dysphoria is a cruel disease so yes assuming you could stop gender dysphoria pre-birth i absolutely would

Every study out there regarding childhood transitioners shows they're as happy or more so than their peers. And much more than those who couldn't until they're adults aka post puberty.

The biggest hurdle is actually having our genders recognized, respected and having legal rights that are protected without needing to have lawyers or the ACLU involved for years at a time. For instance there's a doomsday bill that will revoke all trans rights save a few in the cities/ states that passed their own. But without the federal ones, it would make most of them much harder to enforce in any notable capacity.

And how about actually having to take all those medications and hormones and shit? Wouldn't you rather just, you know, physically be the sex you want to be? It's like saying your child should grow up with diabetes because using insulin and having to meticulously watch your meals isn't that much effort anyway rather than have them not have it at the beginning.
But then again, you're one of those true snowflake types who thinks being disabled is a part of your identity and proud of it so you can show off how different you are.
Honestly, I'm betting a small part of you would actually be more willing to MAKE your child transgender if something like that existed.
