See, that would have been fine if you had did just that.

"I see what you mean, but note this poster said X" is fine, I'll make my own decisions. But...that's not all you said, is it?

"actually covered before you exposed yourself any further."

Exposed myself? What are you calling me, exactly?

"the rest of us get to see exactly where you stand."

Lol, where I stand?

That sorta shit isn't okay, to just imply I'm...whatever you had in your mind that I was exposing myself or standing as.

You tried to implicate me as the opposite of what you stand for with NO proof, just because of a disagreement. Funny enough, exactly what @Gruntling said:

"Focusing on stupid tiny stuff without listening to what they're trying to say."

AND what I said:

"The slightest disagreement? You're a bigot or some kind or a troll."

I'm pretty sure they don't want to have a productive conversation. You've probably already been marked.

i mean, i kept a screen shot of your post. so, if you want to lie about what you said, you should probably do so somewhere else.

you can be pro-trans rights and still be anti trans people. saying trans people should be allowed to transition is the first. calling us delusional, and saying you only use the correct name and pronouns in public, while believing trans women are men is the second.

Go for it, absolutely. I 100% do not deny what youve said right now. I still believe trans women are biological men. I disagree that I am transphobic for that since I am always respectful in public and to trans people.

for the record, Gruntling is salty that he got an NKL for a topic calling trans people delusional.

Everyone conveniently ignored everything I had to say about being pro-trans rights. People should absolutely be whoever they want to be and no one should stop them. Hell, I think the government should pay for their surgery. But I don't know what else to call it. I am being as delicate as I can be. Gender dysphoria is an illness. Healthy people don't need medical intervention to be "fixed".

Ill just tell you now that youre not going to get a sincere response from someone who insists on calling them transgenders

This is how you alienate people who might otherwise be more supportive. Focusing on stupid tiny stuff without listening to what they're trying to say.

how are you defining "biological women" here such that trans women are excluded from the category?

Every person is different. Some biological women may in fact have higher natural levels of testosterone than in some trans women. So, I cannot tell you if a ban/exclusion is necessary or required. Thats the whole debate and I would never claim to know the right answer. But to say biological women are the same as trans women is simply not true. If someone needs to take medication to suppress naturally occurring hormones, then I would say they might possess an advantage a biological woman doesnt have.

their stated personal views are that trans people are suffering a delusion that a weak society is indulging them in

they received no penalty for stating as much

then they gloated about it

Thats not true at all. I said if I wanted to insult someone, then I would have done that. And that was never ever my intention with that topic. Its hate speech to publicly state your opinion that gender dysphoria is a mental illness apparently.

I'm not speaking from a political standpoint, though. To me, this isn't a political thing. People can disagree with things even if it has nothing to do with political leanings, so to me? This conversation has nothing to do with politics.

This is probably something Jenner can speak on from personal experience considering she is a former athlete. When she was a man, she had the advantage of natural testosterone, an effect which can improve endurance levels.

"Certain" may be too strong of a word, but I don't believe there are any gods. There is simply no testable evidence. Even if a God does exist, there is too much chaos and suffering inflicted on innocent people to warrant worship and praise.

I don't see it any different than when a healthy person blinds themselves or amputates a perfectly normal limb. It is body integrity disorder. But, yes, they no longer suffer from the dysphoria after the removal of said offending part.

I went to Catholic school for thirteen years, kindergarten to 12th grade. I already had doubts in my high school years, but have considered myself a hardcore atheist since I left. I don't think I could ever turn back to religion. There's just not enough proof that there's anything out there, and even supposing a God does exist, I don't think he is worth my time considering the amount of chaos and suffering of innocent people on the planet.

I don't have feel good love dreams very often. It always seems to be relationships from long ago though and it's weird. I wouldn't call them unpleasant per se.

Nightmares are definitely worse. I hate waking up in the middle of the night having my hair stand on end and trying to get back to sleep.

This. He hired actors and added multiple skits to each video. They took away from the product imo. Older reviews were better

I feel like this is the same problem with JonTron. His personal views aside, he was funny and a good reviewer until he got "professional" with actors and a set.
