They shouldn't be mistreated but they should accept that most people are very uncomfortable and dismissive of the concept.

On this issue I am a bit of a left wing heretic. I have serious concerns as to whether surgery can actually make someone into a woman, or a woman into a man. It might make the underlying pathology much worse.

Kinda. I'm in the same boat as Chapelle.
"Cool that you can be who you want to be, but to what extent do you expect me to participate?"

I mean, an obvious dude with stubble wearing a dress is still a dude wearing a dress to me, no matter what self image he might have. Like that one topic months back about that weirdo with the blue wig whining because he wasn't allowed to use the ladies' room.

Basically they need to tolerate others

so acknowledging their humanity is, to you, dependent on them being civil with people who refuse to ackowledge their humanity?

Pretty much this. I accept the rights of transgender people and they can be who they want to be.

But now that they have rights, I expect them to act in accordance to at least the bare minimum of social norms.

If they try to force me to find them attractive, or if they decide to dress like goth kids, I'll treat them as such.

I can't vote. I just don't care about them, at all. Let them swap genders, shit wherever they want, doesn't effect me in the slightest. On the flip side though, I also don't care if people think they are freaks either*. I have my own shit to worry about, I don't give a single half of a whole fuck about your cause. Do what you need to do, but leave me alone.


*Note: That doesn't mean I'm fine with them getting murdered or killing themselves over it. Big difference between thinking that a guy getting his meat lopped off is weird and driving them to suicide or killing them.

Good to qualify that so I know you're complete garbage, and not just out of touch.

I would never discriminate against anyone for no reason, I would have no trouble befriending them if we liked the same things, basically like any other human being, but I don't see the concept of being trans as a rational one. Now being intersex is totally different, it's physical, real, and its potentially negative social effects are substantial, I would hold its severity to the same level as being paraplegic, amputees or other conditions that significantly, physically affect our bodies. I absolutely support anyone who falls under this category.

Sure, why wouldn't I? What they do doesn't affect other people directly, and if it makes them happier then more power to them?

Acceptance is not the same thing as not actively discriminating.

Seems like a ridiculous thing that needs to be pointed out.

I'm indifferent. I see and interact with trans people everywhere almost daily). I also have a MtF friend. It doesn't bother me but I also don't understand it.

I don't think I'd be happy if my own child was trans though. It might take me a while to accept it but I'd definitely not try to encourage it.

Not really. I feel transgender's are just homosexuals who need more attention.

I support gay marriage and equal rights fully. But chopping off your donger, I don't agree with. I thinkt he surgery should be illegal actually. It's not even proved to increase the happiness, as far as I know the suicide rate remains the same even after the surgery.

They can do whatever they please and I won't bug them.

What ruffles my feathers is when they act as if it's normal and I should accept it and carry a picket sign next to them.
