@@sandwichbreath0 I don't disagree with statements like "females have periods." It's not something I worry about. However ... if someone said "people have periods" it's also accurate. I'm not for policing language in any way. The truth is, if you're trying ot only include people who have periods in your statement ... there is nothing better than "people with periods." Not all women have periods, even including cis women. They could have been through menopause, as the common example. You're going to have to get really specific to say which group has it and which doesn't ... which I would agree isn't always needed. However, if someone wants to say "people with periods face xyz" I don't see anything wrong with that. If someone wants to say "women with periods face xyz" I also don't see a problem with that. People arguing that language should be policed are people I don't understand, no matter which direction they're arguing for. As I pointed out in this comment, people arguing that we should be using women or female come across as thinking women aren't people. On the other side, it comes across as being pedantic at best and minimizing struggles others face at worst. Neither is ideal. So just ... let people speak how they want? Like that's the best solution imo.

@@connorh6718 What I don't understand is why they are so mad that someone else is using an expression to indicate something accurate that they personally don't like. You don't like it, don't use it... But be aware that what you saying is either factually wrong or inaccurate. "Females have periods" is not correct, since the term females include all animals, including those that do not have periods. "Human females have periods" is still biologically ambiguous and a false generalization. "Some members of the Homo Sapiens Sapiens species that are biologically female have periods" is once again a false generalization and medically non complete. "Some members of the Homo Sapiens Sapiens species that are biologically female and/or with DSD (intersex people), regardless of their gender identity, can have periods in some parts of their lifes" would be the best option... Why are we not using that? Because it is effing ridiculous. "People with periods" is a way to not sound like an effing clown. In my language (Italian), which is extremely trans-erasing to begin with since we do not have a gender neutral terminology, we anyway manage to use this expression because it is correct; which leads me to believe that it is not just a problem with transgender people, they are simply ignorant.

I mean I understand what you mean. But by saying women have periods you’re (sometimes unknowingly) invalidating trans mens (ftm) experience as people with periods. It also invalidates people who are bioligically women but do not identify as women (genderfluid, NB, etc..) To include everyone who doesn’t identify as a woman, people with periods is the best option. By saying that we don’t mean women aren’t people, we are saying that beside people who identify as women can also have their periods.

In Germany, we recently had a particularly infuriating incident in the parliament regarding trans women members. We have two now, since last year. Now a popular politician from the conservative/right-wing/bigotry party that emerged during the "refugee crisis" held a speech in parliament just attacking her, using her birth name and invalidating her identity. No political issue attached, just a personal attack for the other member's identity. Luckily, almost all other politicians stood against that. This type of transphobia is so wild, arguments like "she shouldn't be here on a women's quota" are coming from people who represent parties that don't have a women's quota in the first place. In fact, I think the Green party, who are the most socially progressive, are the only ones to have a fifty/fifty gender ratio set and the only ones who have trans people in parliament, so I think that's a pretty ridiculous line of thought even within TERF-logic.

My native language, Finnish, does not have gendered pronouns. Every person in third person singular is simply "hän". In my opinion it makes everything so much smoother. You can't misgender anyone by using a pronoun, intentionally or unintentionally. Add to it that we also generally go by first names and when we use last names, using titles like Mr/Ms/Mx is very rare. When I'm speaking Finnish, I don't need to know a person's gender to address them or talk about them in third person. I think it creates a bit of a linguistic safe space for everyone - not just enby and trans people, but also cis people (including the silly ones who throw a hissy fit when they get requested to use certain pronouns). The world does change, constantly. That's what makes some of these silly people so uncomfortable.

Why do transphobes think it's okay for them to "go against nature" to feel better about the shape and perception of their bodies, but it's not okay for trans people to do what amounts to the exact same thing, for the exact same reason, just because someone else made the wrong guess about the meaning of their genitalia as an infant?

You say one can be whatever gender regardless of sex, so why is it always being brought up that someone was "mislabelled" at birth when sex shouldn't have any bearing on gender? All trans women, are without exception of the male sex. What people are going round demanding that breast implants or penis implants are a matter of life and death and a human right? You're being very disingenuous about that point. Further, no one getting those cosmetic surgeries is claiming the surgeries should see them categorised differently by law as a consequence, another thing you "forgot".

In 2013 I had a psychology 1010 course, my professor spent more than one day on the topic of the differences between transvestite and transgender. He told us that many people tend to think the two as the same, which of course they are not. He went into the psychological and biological reason on how people end up being born with an XX chromosome but are mentally men and vice versa. He was in his 60's during my time in his classes, I am pretty certain he's in his 70's now, and didn't question what science told him. Granted he's an expert in his field, so it would only make sense that he would think people would sound like idiots when they act as they so boldly do now on the internet. I wouldn't doubt that he's now retired, since I intend to go back once I do some things about what the school is claiming I owe them (I had grants and scholarships).

I think it's unfortunate that there is the idea that we have to understand a person's perspective in order to accept its validity. I'm white. I will never really understand what it means to be a person of colour in the country I live in. And that's okay as long as I believe the stories and perspectives of those people of colour. Cis people will never totally understand what it is to be trans either internally or walking around in the world. And that is also okay. Just believe what you hear and do what you can to be accepting and promote acceptance in others.

To be fair, it is rather complex when you get down to it. Since not even sex is a binary but rather a spectrum. Like, there are AFAB who are biologically male and AMAB who are biologically female. PCOS is a very common condition in people who have ovaries, one symptom is overproduction of testosterone. Causing a host of additional issues that usually correlates more to men than women. Then you have the additional issue of gender expectations and rigid gender roles that is nothing more than social constructs yet are treated as biological. Despite proof otherwise. There's a reason why gender studies exist.

@@SpaceMango I hope that Ezsti answers you so that we can see their language in action, but since I don't know when that will happen, I'll give this response that should be viewed as a supplement to whatever their main response is: Most languages throughout the world do not have gendered pronouns. (One survey estimated that about a quarter of all languages have them, mostly from the Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic families.) The most widely spoken first language in the world today, Mandarin, does not have gendered pronouns in its spoken form (although they were introduced to written Chinese in the early 20th century, to make the language appear more modern and European). These languages have a single word that can mean ‘he’ or ‘she’ (or ‘he’ or ‘she’ or ‘it’, or even ‘he’ or ‘she’ or ‘it’ or ‘they’); as usual with pronouns, you need context to know what the pronoun refers to. Without gender to guide you, sometimes you need a little more context than you would in a more gendered language.
@MUNMOMUU2 жыл бұрын
@@SpaceMango I am not the person you replied to, but in my language (Finnish) it would be "Hän on hyvä laulaja", "hän" being the 3rd person singular pronoun. We just don't have any other pronoun to call another person by proper grammar rules, and we have very little gendered grammar compared to some other languages. Also in spoken, common Finnish it is normal to use "it", "se" in Finnish of a person, though in official settings it would be considered rude and it isn't proper grammar.

Three things, one is a story. I keep coming back to this video and I would genuinely listen to a song called "Dinosaurs are Cool, Transphobia is Not" My mom used to be a very conservative Christian, very trans and homophobic. Then, on July 22 of 2003, I was born. 12 years later, when I still identified as a girl, I had a best friend. Her name was Courtney and I had the biggest crush on her. I was playing truth or dare with a friend group, one of which included _her_ crush, Max. They asked me and I said truth. "Do you like anyone?" And me, being young and stupid, told them it was her. They all stopped and went silent. Max then said to me "You know that Courtney likes me and I like her back, right?" And obviously, I knew, everyone knew. But I had the best come back at the time. "Then ask her out. As of right now, she's got her options." Then, about 3 months later, she approached me while we were getting ready for my school's production of Charlotte's web. She said "Max told me what you said" and I had completely forgotten. "What do you mean?" She was like "About... you know." I was so confused because I had forgotten about that whole conversation. She kept on being really vague and I was getting more and more confused. The teacher gave a 5 minute warning before the show started so we had to finish the stage makeup and get to the amphitheater. We both heard it and as I was in the middle of asking "Can it wait until after the show?" She just grabbed me and kissed me. After she pulled away she said "I like you too, I'll see you after the show" That was my first kiss EVER and I was blushing SO HARD. We dated for about 2 years before she moved to North Dakota. Now, I identify as non-binary but I align more masculine. The first time I brought a guy home, my mom looked at me like she was so proud because I hadn't come out about my gender. It took me another 2 years to tell her about my gender. She took one of those deep breaths before going "Okay... I still love you" in the tone people use when they're clearly upset but they keep their voice even. It took a few months but I eventually asked her to go to the pride parade. She said yes, asked if I wanted her to come with me. I was like "You don't have to but I would appreciate it" since I interpreted it as "Do I have to come". When we went, she took out a sign that read "I used to be conservative. God sent me a gay, non-binary kid and told me to grow up" and I started crying. My sister and mom are now completely accepting of me and my sister once referred to me as "The Residential Queer™". They come to me to ask about LGBTQ+ representation and my sister, multiple times has asked me how she should go about asking pronouns of someone she's been working with. It makes me so happy to know that being unapologetically myself has made my family change their entire outlook on life. Also, really quick trigger warning for mentions of abuse. I was abused by my father for 9 years of my life before he passed away. I was bullied for being neurodivergent and part of the LGBTQ+ community. I went to a therapist and I overcame my "trauma". I put trauma in quotes because it wasn't trauma, it was my villain origin story.

(Obviously there are still people there that hold those values, I’m just saying they are not the majority by far) Also it could contribute to the idea that to be a n**i you have to be German or that most Germans still are. (I’m not saying you think that - you’re on a jammidodger video I’d be very surprised the folks here are typically super lovely and politically excellent! It’s just that I have seen those ideas floating around online in the past and that type of phrasing could be read in a way that would support that - I hope that makes sense!!)

Because they're authoritarian, they can't imagine people who are NOT authoritarian. So to them, the opposite of straight/cis authoritarianism is trans/queer/liberal authoritarianism, instead of giving people the option to choose. They can't imagine that people who are oppressed by the system just want freedom, rather than oppressing THEM instead.

My mom says I had a teen "tomboy" phase and she made me see reason. In reality I'm actually on the closet for her 🤷♂️ my language doesn't have gender neutral pronouns, so I just kept the feminine ones, but some of my friends know I go by any and they actively ask me which ones I prefer depending on the day

If you tell a trans person to "act their gender" you're kinda an accidental ally. I think what the transphobe wanted to say was "act your sex". Also, at 6:30, Jamie was totally channelling Roly.
@anzaia21642 жыл бұрын
I really can't tell if they meant it as "act your agab" in a transphobic way, or as "act your gender" in a misogynistic way (As in; don't be so bitchy, women are supposed to be docile flowers I can push around for my amusement). Which, I need to add, would also be transphobic because it insinuates that she was behaving in a "manly" way or failing at her own gender presentation. Which is also bullshit. Overall, a pretty bad comeback, no matter the situation.

I'm still very baby trans even after coming out over a year ago because I still haven't started my transition and, trust me, I've tried. Social transitioning is so difficult when those you're living with either don't want to accept you and so they just ignore your name a pronouns and keep calling you your old stuff or you've got someone constantly telling you just how weird and wrong you are. I have both of these. I'm stuck living with family who just doesn't get it. Though, my mother is trying. Its just... How do you go from looking your child in the face and telling them they need to do what makes them happy and then still call them by the pronouns that make them feel trapped? It makes no sense. I'm glad all of the comments I've seen have been nothing but supportive. These videos always make things better.

I hope things get better for you. I'm a trans man who didn't feel comfortable or safe enough to come out until I was 48. 5 years later and mostly transitioned I feel right but 'right' is such an understatement. I have in part dealt with the same issues as you and I would say if your mum is trying then have patience with her because I know from experience how difficult it is for some people to adapt and I don't think it is deliberate. It is hard when it feels like everyone is against you but remember it is their problem or their bad, not yours.

EDIT: spelling mistake since this video is on the topic of transphobia, id like to share a funny/not funny story of an interaction i had with a transphobic person i used to know so back before i realized i was a trans guy (im trans ftm) i knew this guy who had a huge crush on me. he told me he had a crush on my several times and i had rejected him all times because i only saw him as a friend. i started setting boundaries because he’d always show up at my house before asking at first and that made me feel uncomfortable and annoyed at the time. this was when i was in like, grade 4-6 (and i should also note that he was very religious) fast forward to 2020 when i started figuring out who i was, i finally stopped seeing him as a friend when he’d be openly transphobic to me in a gc i had with a couple friends from school (i started online school and they all went to in-person school) i blocked him and left the chat. fast forward AGAIN to a couple months ago. he texts me and apologized, saying that he’d learned more about trans people and stuff. so i forgave him and wanted to give him another chance, BUT i had a gut feeling that something didn’t feel right. my gut feeling was right because as soon as we became “friends” again, all he’d want to talk about was why i was trans. he’d disguise the discussions we had about it by saying things like “i just want to know more about it” but the questions were very invasive and personal. and when i’d actually try to explain everything, he’d say very basic transphobe stuff like “but taking hormones would change your body” and “oh you wouldnt want an adams apple, that hurts”. i was going to recommend this channel to him but at this point i knew something was wrong. So one day i confronted him by asking him “are you trying to convince me not to be trans?” HIS ANSWER WAS YES. WTF. and his reason was messed up too. he wanted me to “ be a girl again” because he wanted to have a crush on my without it being gay… i was disgusted and told him that 1. if a was a girl he’d never have a chance with me and 2. WTF THATS VERY MESSED UP. he proceeded to go tell me its because of his religion and how he has to marry a girl and have a family. i decide to end things with a happy message and say “well then go find yourself a girl and live a happy life” AND HE REALLY TELLS ME TO GO WITHER AND D!E IN MY ROOM LOL anyway he then starts going all “nice guy” mode and talking about how he’d never date me and how he doesnt know how weird i was. meanwhile im laughing and just watching him rant about it before blocking him and telling my mom about it so yeah thats my story lol, just felt like sharing TL DR: a transphobe got angry because i wouldnt de-transition so he could have a crush on me without it being gay

As someone who only discovered the word "Agender" last year, thx in part to KZbin suggesting your videos to me and that leading me to make a Reddit account and explore Ace subreddits, I really wish I had known there were more than 2 genders when I was a kid. I remember wishing I was born with a male body, simply because life would have been easier, but I knew I wasn't a boy, yet, I also knew I wasn't a girl. I always pushed it aside thinking "it's just because I don't fit with girl stereotypes". Then all those lovely late 90s early 00's cartoons with tomboy characters started popping up and I was like "yeah! I'm a tomboy!" My gender identity was literally tomboy as a kid, because that was the closest thing I'd ever come to identifying with a character's gender. Then Trans people and gender confirmation surgeries started popping up in the media when I was a teen and I thought "no matter how much I wish I was born male, I don't want to go through surgery and appear as a man". Which both confused and reassured me. My father never tried to force me into the box labeled "girl", so I don't have much gender dysphoria, however, he died when I was 10 and I had to go live with my homophobic, transphobic and racist mum... I went from a "people are just people and you should judge them by their actions" upbringing to "people fit into very specific boxes and if they're different from us or don't want to fit into their boxes, then they deserve all the hatred coming their way". I have struggled a lot with those two opposite ideals and I'm so freaking grateful that my mum let my father raise me when they separated when I was 4. I can't imagine having been brought up solely by a woman who spreads negativity and hatred. I hope the younger generations will be brought up with love and acceptance as well as a better understanding of who and what they are from a young age, so that they won't have to struggle with these inner turmoils that I have to - and also that gender dysphoria can be as small in other trans people because their parents, hopefully, won't force them into the boxes of "girl" or "boy" but just let them express themselves the way the are.
