100% agree with you on this one. Glad we've found common ground. There's a possibility a rock will fly down from the heavens and kill us all tomorrow. There's a lot of things that could happen, but when you do something and a negative outcome does not follow, I can't imagine why action should...

Yes.

No, those two things are really quite unrelated. And there's no slippery slope involved.

So why would it suddenly increase? If we've had these laws for years or longer in a number of places, why would a sudden increase ever take place? I don't know how many women feel uncomfortable with that, I honestly cannot find any statistics on it. But given that women are the biggest...

Because people are defined by more than just the void of opportunities available to them. So I grow up in a middle class household. When I grow up, I want to be a lawyer. But unfortunately, Jimmy over here grew up in a rich family. I'm as smart as Jimmy, and just as hard-working, but when I get...

Well it just so happens that I've met plenty of people within the LGBT+ community, and none of them have tried to shove anything down my throat. I'm not sure why, maybe it's because I'm just basically courteous. But what everyone else does is quite irrelevant to the argument I'm making here...

Pedophilia and bestiality lead to the harm of others. Transgenderism doesn't. Massive difference. There's nothing wrong with deviance as long as it doesn't result in the harm of others. Sure, you can practice self-discipline. Why should you in this case? Not all things we discipline out of...

You can call individuals lazy, but when an entire statistic is lazy, it's usually for reasons outside of their own.

Because they aren't denying anything. I don't really understand what you're saying here, but I'd like to hear how anything involved here is a fantasy. Yeah, not a big fan of the over-publicization of sex lives. I mean, I think we should be more or less open about sex, but the obsession...

You don't have to understand it. There are a lot of things I'll never understand, and you'll never understand. That shouldn't be relevant. Thank you for your contribution to the discussion. Not really. This is pretty heavily studied, but a lot of researchers will say it's 50/50. There's a...

Since we're speaking anecdotally here, I've spoken to many people just your age or older, and their accounts are quite different. It seems to be a very political thing, actually. I know a guy down the street, 70 some years old. Very educated, travelled the world, quite successful throughout his...

Alright, so you want to focus on the United States specifically. That works, there are plenty of examples of transgender people long before you were born. When we go back before 1950, there aren't going to be as many examples, naturally. In the few examples there were, many of them were forced...

I don't deny it. I never said they don't have the right to post here, but they sure as hell are going to be called out for making claims if they aren't going to argue them. I didn't explicitly address it, but here's where I accommodated that: I stated that the accommodation of the...

Where is the obsession? Where is the paranoia? Where is the dribble? Also, why are suicide rates relevant to this argument? Throughout history, there has been variation in the suicide rates of many groups, some higher than others. Almost universally, the suicide rate being higher among one...

That's where gender-nonconformity comes in, my friend. A misalignment between one's biology, and the personality traits that might otherwise be associated with that biology.
