I hate these things because it's always basically "Trans People Please Explain To Those Who Hate You Why You Should Be Allowed to Exist". That's not "opening a dialogue" and it shouldn't be on the shoulders of trans people to have to put on a circus performance in order to prove our humanity to others.

Exactly. The while "alpha wolf" thing is a great example. A guy studied CAPTIVE wolves and found that they have a sort of alpha male and female heirarchy thing going on. Then he studied wild wolves and realised his studies were completely wrong when applied to wild wolves. Their packs are simply just a mother and father leading their offspring and teaching them how to survive for when they are old enough to leave and have pups of their own. The poor guy spent so long trying to disprove his own original paper. Thought I'd share this example because it's simple to understand and can be applied to so many areas of scientific research. The things we thought we knew are always being proved wrong.

Chromosomes are not sexes. The SRY gene and A.R located on the Y chromosome will still determine your sex. For example, 47 XXY (Klinefelter's), 47 XYY (Supermale/Jacob's), 48 XXYY, 48 XXXY, & 49 XXXXY all result in males because the Y chromosome contains the SRY gene and A.R. The reason these people look unordinary is because they have duplicated chromosomes. Which can result in developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, speech and language difficulties, motor coordination problems, and behavioral issues. Some individuals may have distinct facial features and physical abnormalities. It's important to note that the severity of symptoms can vary widely among affected individuals. But their sex determining genes still result in male. De La Chapelle Syndrome is one rare exception however. This is when a person born male has two X chromosomes, instead of the typical XY. This occurs when the SRY gene and A.R translocate onto the X chromosome. Resulting in a female chromosomal pattern. That's not supposed to be there. But they will still develop as male despite having ambiguous characteristics from the X chromosome.

Humans come with a variety of combinations of sex chromosomes, not just XX and XY. Other combinations include X, XXY, XYY, XXX and others. It's possible to have XY chromosomes but not develop a penis in the womb (for example CAH, congenital adrenal hypoplasia) meaning the individual would be assigned female at birth and may not know they have XY chromosomes. It is very rare for a person to know what chromosomes they have unless they have had their DNA sequenced.

I panicked for a fraction of a second, then reasoned with myself that nothing bad was going to happen, and went on to wash my hands. He then turned around, noticed me, was apparently just as surprised as I had been, muttered something along the lines of, "oh, this is _women's_?", and left.

I tucked that knowledge away (as a young child who knows nothing about the world yet does) and continued wondering when we would go home so I could play more Pokemon. It's not quite the same as explaining what it means to be trans, but it was also the 90s so I give her all the credit in the world for being so nonchalant about it--not to mention we generally don't know how people identify, even if they present strongly as one gender or another.

the bathroom thing pisses me off because i - a cis woman - have literally walked into the men's restroom, used a stall, and walked out without even realizing i was in the men's restroom until i saw a man at the sink on my way out. nothing happened to me. i was not brutally assaulted. i have brought BOTH of my children, my daughter AND my son, into the women's restroom without issue. nobody was confused by seeing a boy in the women's room. he did not cause any problems for any of the women in there. and if a (let's be real) non-passing trans woman came into the women's restroom, 80% chance my daughter wouldn't even notice. because she's in a stall! or because she's just not obsessively analyzing every person who walks into the restroom to check them for woman-ness. 19% chance she notices and goes "uh, there's a man in the women's restroom" at which point i say "maybe the men's room is closed. maybe the line is super long. maybe they came in here by mistake. or maybe they're trans. doesn't matter, they need to pee, you need to pee, everybody gets their own little closet to pee in, just take care of your business and let's get on with our day." the remaining 1% covers any situation that interrupts that conversation like a sudden meteor strike or a tornado or whatever. literally 0% chance anything BAD happens to her because someone AMAB is in the women's restroom.

Given that 6 and 7 and 8-year-olds have crushes, and that asexual people may have romantic attractions to one or both or all genders, no, sexuality isn't based on sexual arousal. It's much deeper than such momentary things. Many children know whether they are gay or straight or bi/pan long before they are remotely interested in sex. I see sexuality and gender as largely neurological. Much like autistic vs allistic individuals, it would be silly to say someone is autistic because they feel autistic. They're autistic because they process and interact with the world and society in a different way than allistic people do, and that can lead to difficulties because the human environment we have established is not geared for and sometimes openly hostile to them. In the same way, people who do not fit into the heteronormative gender binary often encounter a world that is not geared for and sometimes hostile to their existence. And this is regardless of whether they are out as LGBTQ+ or not.

What's so hilarious with the chromosome arguments and that you only have the "female genes" or the "male genes" is that it is almost 100% the opposite. Everybody carries the same genes apart from a selection of few, for example the SRY gene on the Y chromosome, which in turn code for mostly just a few hormones that in turn regulate what genes get presented (active) and repressed (inactive) respectively. That is why you can change the "sex characteristics" with hormonal treatment: because everybody has them, and the only difference between people regardless of gender or being trans or cis, is which ones are being active and which ones aren't. If you start a hormonal treatment, you body will change which genes are active, and it isn't limited to sex hormones. Their argument is like saying "everybody is lactating" just because everyone has the genes and the hormones for that process (for example prolactin and oxytocin), but what determines if you are or aren't is whether or not they're active or not and that isn't determined by sex!
@PanndaKat Жыл бұрын
This is such a good point, I feel like the focus on chromosomes is such a simplified, arbitrary thing. It’s semantics. If we think about how we actually gender people, it’s mostly by visually recognising gender characteristics which are partially cultural (clothing etc), social cues (culturally stereotypical gendered behaviour, them telling you their gender), and partially biological (genitalia, body hair, low voice, etc). But all of these are on a spectrum. And even then, when we say, ok, let’s just do the biological part. Sexual characteristics are just activated by hormones. Which are regulated by the sry gene. Which is on the Y chromosome. Is the thing that makes you biologically male the SRY or the Sexual Characteristic? And this is even ignoring the fact that gender identity is a ‘feeling’, which is a real thing that is caused by something biological, the brain. Generally a simplified view works for most people, who are cis. Makes things easier. But that doesn’t mean that anything out of this simplified rule of thumb is wrong or doesn’t exist. It’s like People are viewing the abstraction of reality as the actual reality. Just because A causes B doesnt mean that A defines definitively what it is.

With the whole "gender is based on feelings thing," imagine your had an awful constant pain in your shoulder that got miles worse every time someone touched it. You told your parents as a child, but they kept touching your shoulder because they don't believe you. Your friends touch your shoulder when they speak to you, but you're afraid to tell them about how much it hurts because they might think you're crazy and stop being friends with you. You tell your doctor, but they touch your shoulder and when you flinch away and cry out in pain, they say that it's all in your head. Your pastor says that it's the devil inside you. Finally, everyone you tell tells you that it's just a feeling and you need to get over it. Eventually, you stop telling anyone and live with the pain. That's the type of "feeling" that people who are trans feel about their gender. It doesn't really matter if it's "just a feeling," because it's agonizing when that feeling isn't respected. Now, when you're a little older, you find different friends. You tell them about how painful your shoulder is, and they agree to stop touching your shoulder. You find a new doctor, and they just give you pain meds for your shoulder. Even if your shoulder still hurts, you can live a normal life and the pain doesn't need to take up every waking moment. Who the fuck cares whether the pain in your shoulder was "real" or "just a feeling?" You are so much happier now, and it really hasn't affected anyone else. Oh, but there's an international hate campaign against people with pain in their shoulder because politicians want to distract folks from the fact that everyone is poor now and the climate is going to shit. Dammit.

There are various exceptions, such as individuals with Klinefelter syndrome (who have XXY chromosomes), Swyer syndrome (women with XY chromosomes), and XX male syndrome (men with XX chromosomes), however these exceptions are rare. In some instances, a seemingly normal female with a vagina, cervix, and ovaries has XY chromosomes, but the SRY gene has been shut down. In most species with XY sex determination, an organism must have at least one X chromosome in order to survive."

As I said in another comment they seem to have a rather narrow definition of what traditional is: you'll notice that none of the people on the "traditional" side are nude as is traditional for the Digambara order of monks within Jainism, which far predates even the earliest forms of Christianity. I hear none of them citing texts like the Tao Te Ching or the Confucian Analects, both of which are far older than the Bible.

People who say "i am a girl i feel i am a girl so that means only boys and girls exist", that's such a stupid argument. You can't say "I never experience gender disphoria so it doesn't exist". It's the same as cis guys who say that cramps during period doesn't exist. People need to learn they are not the center of the world and it's ok not to understand as long as you don't invalide others. I'm a cis girl, i know i will never be able to fully understand gender disphoria, but i don't need to to know that it's real. You just have to listen to those who experience it, be humble enough to accept you don't know everything, and learn from them.

My best friend is trans, and he told me he didn’t even know what being trans meant, but one time he was cosplaying as a guy and bound his chest with bandages to make it flatter and he felt more comfortable looking like that. And being asexual myself I grew up watching lots of films with kissing and people getting together almost instantly and thinking it was weird because I didn’t understand how someone could be attracted to another person when they don’t know anything about them. Those feelings were always there, I just couldn’t explain it properly and neither could my friend. So it’s not about “those liberals are turning your kid trans”, it’s about showing kids that there are different labels out there that might fit them, and if they know about them it could save them a lot of confusion and potential dysphoria when they find a label to fit them.

I'm a trans guy like your friend however I have a strange experience 😂 I'm glad your friend figured himself out by the way, you as well. My experience isn't strange it's just not spoken about as much. I wasn't typically masculine growing up, I never liked things other boys liked. I wore dresses and played with dolls and all as a kid and never even thought about my gender, I was just playing with what I was bought and enjoying life. Once I reached about 6-8 I started noticing that the dresses or pink or makeup tied me in with girls at my age and I didnt want that to I started forcing it away. I wasn't a 'tomboy' I just said I was because I didnt want to be associated with girls. But as a young kid I didn't know about all that. It was in 2022 that I figured it out when I made my hair look short and bandaged my chest, asked my friends to use male pronouns for me and I've felt more comfortable since. But i still don't feel OK wearing stereotypically feminine things because I'd rather not be seen as a girl even by mistake. Figured I'd share this here because hearing about you and your friend made me really happy. Thank you :)

I really REALLY wish ANYONE in this discussion brought up Intersex individuals by name, because it would have COMPLETELY discounted the Traditionalists' argument about chromosomes. Like Jamie said, there are more chromosome combinations than just XX and XY. I have a feeling the Traditionalists either don't know that or are ignoring that. Gender is a spectrum, yes, but SEX IS TOO!! It just happens that XX and XY are the most commonly known, and that's how we've created this binary system. However, it IS arbitrary. Doctors and/or parents will make a decision about the 'sex' of the child at birth by sorting the child into their understanding of this flawed binary, and oftentimes when intersex children are born, they are pressured to shoehorn the kids into one of the two socially accepted categories. It's a peer pressure thing, NOT a scientific thing. Those kids are then forced to grow up feeling strange about their bodies and identities, are told they are wrong or strange when in actuality they're COMPLETELY NORMAL!!! I'm not intersex myself but I AM Non-binary, and the existence of intersex individuals is all I need to confirm that the binary system is man-made just like every other social category.

Sexual reproduction occurs through the fusing of two gametes; sperm and egg. Your biological sex is the arrangement of your body to produce one of these two gametes. Although intersex people might have a mix of sex characteristics, they do not produce a third gamete. If an intersex person could reproduce it would be if they could produce sperm or eggs - which would indicate their sex.

Chromosomal abnormalities do not equate to being actual sexes. Nearly 100% (99.8%) of infants' born have the standard XX or XY chromosome. Sometimes, however, rare genetic errors in cell division result in people having extra combinations of sex chromosomes in addition to the typical XX and XY. Such examples include 45 X, or 47 XXY. Some people argue that these rare combinations prove that there are more than two sexes. There is one problem, however. Chromosomes are not the defining factor of sex, nor are they sexes. There is a broad difference between chromosomes and sex. Sex is a reproductive strategy that produces the two gametes of two different sizes. The male is the sex that produces the smaller gamete; and female is the sex that produces the larger gamete. Chromosomes contain genes that determine whether you will become a male or female. Chromosomes are just one of the dictation factor inputs, and sex is the universal outcome in humans. Even if there is a chromosome that is missing or a chromosome duplicated, the genes in the chromosomes still produce either a male or a female outcome. Therefore, the extra chromosome combination is not an additional sex. The key to this remarkable consistency is found in the SRY gene, located on the Y chromosome. It activates a series of genes that lead to male development, the differentiation of the gonads into testes, which then leads to the development of the male external and internal sex organs. Other genes such as WNT 4 and RSPO 1 lead to female development, gonadal differentiation into ovaries. The absence of testicular hormones such as testosterone and anti-mullerian hormones then leads to development of internal and external female genitalia. This is why the SRY gene is called the primary sex determining gene of mammals. With it, along with the functional androgen receptors, the fetus develops into a male, and without the 2 factors being present and both working together, the fetus develops into a female, regardless of missing or duplicate chromosomes. Knowing this, we can now revert to atypical combinations and easily predict the sex of following subsequent chromosomal abnormalities. Knowing that there is the SRY gene and androgen receptors in the Y chromosome and none in the X, these are the rules based on functional SRY gene and functional Androgen Receptors. 1. 45 X (Turner's), results in female. 2. 47 XXX, (Triple X), also results in female. 3. 47 XXY (Klinefelter's), results in male. 4. 47 XYY (Jacob's), also male. 5. 48 XXXY, again, male. 6. 48 XXXX, again, female. Keep in mind that even if the Y chromosome in some of these cases is missing the SRY gene or A.R, then either way, they'll still end up being either male or female. Proving once more, that sex is binary. People who confuse an atypical chromosomal combination with the other sex use a gloss of the hand. One moment they are discussing chromosomes, the next, they are talking about sex, without defining the difference. By confusing the two, they incorrectly argue that chromosomal variations form complementary sexes. However, none of these chromosomal variants results in a third role in reproduction. They always, only translate for two. And that is either male, or female.

As a teen in the 1980's , the only terms we had were tomboy, heshe, androgynous and a lot of homophobic slurs. I got called every last one of them! It didn't make me straight or binary. All the talks with the bishop didn't make me that way ether. You can't talk somone into being Queer or straight. Trust me, if I got to choose what I am, I would have chosen straight and cis. It's a lot less hassle I'm sure. At 52 years old, I know this is not a trend or phase. I have tried to be traditional and have 3 failed marriages to prove it. At my age I have been asked why come out? What is my agenda? Its called authenticity and self love. I am tired of living a lie. Is that so hard to get? I don't want to feel like I am cosplaying in my own body anymore. With what time I have left on this earth I want to love and be loved for who I am, not be treated like a fetish object. That's how I view the term tomboy towards me.A tool of cis male gaze to make it seem I fit into a straight man's world, whenI don't. That one woman who said she feels 50/50 should look up Bigendered.

I am cisgender, so I'm sure it's not as bad for me to have non-supportive parents, but I have been openly bisexual since I was 15. And I do get crushes on girls way more often than boys. And while my parents say that they love me, and that this is my life to live, they also get openly defensive when I try to tell them about my date with a girl. And this hurts a lot, hearing them say "Just be careful not to regret your choices later" and "If you present yourself that way, men won't want you", way more than if they just were outwardly hateful and homophobic. Because then I could hate them and be angry, without feeling like an ungrateful piece of trash, because "I could've had them kicked me out, but they love me, why can't I be happy with that." And "I can be who I am and vocal about it, as long as I'm not loud enough to make them uncomfortable, or to make my sister gay too."

When it comes to labels and things being trans or being gay giving out children the abulity and education to be able to tell us how they fee, even if it will change later or its a phase, is so important. Then knowing how their bodies work is important. Them knowing what different parts of their bodies are called is important. Even if its uncomfortable for you to have your kid tell you they might not be a girl, or yell vagina in the hall at a syore, or any other uncomfortable situations knowing those words would create for you it can save them so much trauma and so much pain if you just let them know the words and how to use them. Our kids arent stupid. Theyre innocent, and young. Theyre children. But they can understand things like "I am uncomfortable when this happens to me". Giving them the ability to tell us that and know that they arent the only one and shouldnt feel wrong or bad for feeling that way is a good thing. Then not having the words to tell you what they feel doesnt mean they dont feel it. It just means they wont know how to tell you.

Yes. A recent court case in Sweden really proved the importance of children knowing the names of their genital. A man put his fingers inside a 10 year old girl's genitals, but because she used a word that describes the outside of the genital, he wasn't declared guilty. Just to be clear, he was still guilty of SA, but he was accused of r*pe. I don't blame the girl, heck, I'm 19 and I would probably have used the same word she did. But it does show the importance of knowing the correct way of describing.

I grew up in a very liberal household in the 60's and 70's. My parents had the idea that the truth should never be hidden from children. They had friends of every sort - including LGBT people. I was never given the details of what they did in bed of course, and as a kid I wouldn't have asked. But I knew who their gay friends were, it was no big deal. They had quite a few Black friends as well, and I was told about their situation in the world. Same with Jewish people and Mexican people, and every other kind of people. Maybe it's because my own dad was disabled, they just wanted me to accept all kinds of people and try to understand them. They loved to repeat the saying "Never judge someone till you've walked a mile in their shoes." None of this was "confusing" to me in any way. They were just facts about the world. And I liked all these people and how they were all different. Kids don't get confused about who's gay or straight or trans or whatever else they are. You just tell them like it's a fact, and they go "OK" and that's it. Just like you tell them about different trees and flowers and bugs and dogs - there's all different kinds of people too. /rant

I feel like I've probably told this story in a comment on another of Jamie's videos, but I'm not 100% sure, haha. So... I majored in human genetics at uni and one of my lab classes early on involved karyotyping (looking at a person's chromosomes -- all of them, not just sex chromosomes). We learned how to assess karyotypes by using samples from our own bodies. The lab tutor made sure to tell us beforehand that if any of us found anything unexpected, there was counselling available through the uni for anyone who wanted it. She said that it wasn't unusual for a student to find something in their karyotype that they hadn't known was there. A young woman in my class discovered she had XY chromosomes, meaning she had an androgen insensitivity, rendering her Y chromosome essentially non-functional. She broke down crying (a mixture of grief and relief at having an explanation for so many things), because she and her husband had been trying to have kids for several years with no success. They'd come to Australia as refugees, from a country where reproductive healthcare was basically non-existent for anyone who wasn't wealthy. Outwardly, she'd developed as female and identified as a woman, but never knew that she literally did not have the internal parts necessary for pregnancy. Her husband was awesome about it -- super supportive -- and I heard they went on to adopt a child together. But yeah, I expect that a lot of people would be surprised if they actually checked what sex chromosomes they had. I mean, that lab tutor said there were a few students each year across the different lab classes who found unexpected things in their karyotypes.

Hearing the woman claim that she would still “love and accept” the fact that she may have a trans child, but not “agree” with it just irks me. I recently had a falling out with my older sister and auntie about that very thing. How can one say that they’ll love you, call you by the name you’ve chosen, and even state your pronouns but refuse to agree with what you’re doing? They aren’t transphobic or bigots, though. At least in their minds. They just don’t agree… as if we’re arguing over our favorite colors.

My grandmother does this exact thing and people still don’t understand why I get upset with her. I feel if she really loved me she would accept who I am as a person. But instead of seeing me, she sees a version of me that was raised exactly the way she wanted me to be (feminine girl, conservative, Christian). So every time she says she loves me and that I’m a great person, it doesn’t feel genuine at all. She can say she “loves me despite my choices” all she wants but it will never make me feel accepted or loved. Sometimes I wish I could give people a pair of glasses that let them see through my eyes

However any comments I make about it are mildly disparaging, and convey my disapproval. I constantly "forget" that they don't eat meat on Fridays and serve it, because that's a silly requirement that I don't agree with. I consistently try to make plans for Sunday mornings, and when they say they have church I tell them they're too rigid in their thinking, that I respect their belief but don't want to have it pushed on me so they should stop insisting on church every week because I feel bad they won't spend time with me. If they mention their faith I make a face. I talk about catholics as "those people". I make sure they know that I think their beliefs are wrong. I "love and accept" them, but do everything I can do to try and change this belief while maintaining plausible deniability about it. Does that treatment feel like love and acceptance? Or does it feel like claiming I "love and accept" them when in fact I love the version of them I want to see, and don't accept the way they are now?

@@cannedtails5617 I won't argue that patents don't love their children. Love is a complicated emotion. But you mention respect and acceptance.

I'd say that if you make it clear how you love them but think their view of the world is fundamentally harmful and wrong, they won't feel respected. If you tell someone (as in the video) that you love, accept, and respect them but don't want your child to grow up thinking that being like them is ok, they will not feel loved, accepted, and respected. Parents, good parents, care about their children. They want them to be happy, safe, strong, good people. They want their child to feel loved and accepted. But actions speak louder than words.

My viewpoint with kids is let them have whatever gender expression they want and don't "worry" about them being trans. Before, people worried about their son or daughter being gay. Create an environment where people of different sexualities, disabilities, races, cultures, religion, ect and that they know trans people exist. They will say something if they know what it is, it's not a bad thing, and they feel safe. If your child is having mental health issues, hopefully a therapist would be able to identify if it's related to gender dysphoria. People need to stop fretting over this and using it as an excuse to put down trans people.

It really wouldn't be. I use my name on games that she places with me on and she doesn't even acknowledge it. And if kids can be exposed to straight relationships and given gender roles and all that at the moment they're born, why can't they be exposed to gay relationships and trans people and be allowed to express themselves at early ages too? This is why transphobia is a massive issue, kids aren't used to these things when growing up so then once they reach high school and their classmate comes out or whatever they don't see that as normal. Then it progresses and continues. If kids were desensitised while they were younger and explained that these things are OK, they'd be less likely to be transphobic later on in life.

When I first came out as a trans guy at 15, my mom was already a part of my gender journey and all labels that I had tried thus far and she was very supportive, but she worried at first that I had unconsciously pushed myself to be a guy because of my dad. He spends all his time with his cis sons and very rarely spends time quality with me and his daughter (honestly, he spends even less time with her than he did with me since he spent more time with me before step mom had the other three) and he and my step mom constantly told me how much my short hair made me look like a boy. Mom questioned why I couldn't just present masculinely and still identify as a girl. I think it's really important to distinguish between gender expression and gender. It wasn't about wanting to be accepted by dad, nor was it about just being in "boy clothes". It's different for every trans person, but for me, it's being recognized as a guy. It's the actual and sheer joy that I feel when I hear someone refer to me as Sky or Skylar and with he or they pronouns. For me, it's about finally recognizing myself in the mirror because I'm seeing myself from the lens of being a guy, not a girl, even though my face and hair hasn't really changed since I came out. I prefer masc clothing for it's practicality and that it helps me pass, but that's not what my identity is about.

"Boys and girls should be raised the same. " Most people I personally have met who claim that they shouldn't be don't usually teach boys things like cooking, cleaning, mending their own clothes, and don't encourage girls to learn about car repairs or sports. And as soon as a girl hits puberty she becomes a childcare specialist at church whether she wants it or not. (this may mostly be a personal issue for me as this is literally my childhood) "There are only two genders" KZbin went to a commercial but I can tell this one will be a drama fest. The idea of non-binary genders has been around since at least ancient Greece. Probably longer. (also, very interesting to learn recently that there are a number of Greek myths in which people's genders were switched by the gods and then they just...lived.) OOooh the BATHROOM question...WHY IS YOUR CHILD LOOKING AT PEOPLE IN THE BATHROOM STALLS??? Nobody is walking around in the public bathroom with their genitals out. Teach your kids to mind their own business, flush the toilet, and wash their damn hands. As for changing rooms, even a strict AFAB-only situation isn't going to be "safe"...the opening scene of "Carrie" really isn't too drastic an exaggeration for women with a physical disability, or scarring, or who are just not very "traditionally" feminine looking. "Gender shouldn't be based on a feeling." That's a very weird phrasing. Also, they are confusing a deep "feeling" with an emotion. It's not like, oh, I'm in a boy mood, I'm in a girl mood. It's more like "I have to wear a mask every day so people who I care about won't hate me. (rather similar to what my autistic sibling has had to do) Accept your trans child, people. You're a shit parent if you would reject your kid for being who they are. And if your parents rejected you, I will be your new mom now.

Yet such wide disparities exist with the Christian tradition as no two will agree on most points. As a local example, through the 1960s Lutheran and Catholic Germanic immigrant descendents would not associate with each other even when they lived in small Midwestern towns together. There was literally a traditional divide that dictated strick limits on interactions. This held for nearly 3 generations after immigration. Yet this was traditional by the same mindset that these "traditional" participants think in. There are so many aspects that have been considered traditional even between people whose ancestors came from the same European country.

In my experience, that kind of mindset just comes from willful ignorance that sexuality or gender identity is just a phase or can be changed.

On how we are raised, I always thought the double standard was disgusting. I was raised by a feminist tomboy mother, who was raised about as "rough and tumble" as can be, having to compete with 3 older brothers. So other than the noticeable lack of penis and the obsession with making me share gender split facilities with girls, there really wasn't much difference between my AFAB self and my transitioned self, maybe more hair and I can sing baritone/bass now. On the flip side, my transgender daughter was mostly raised by that same mother, as I had a lot of undiagnosed mental and physical health issues that got in my way. And didn't like the idea of her, as a young "boy" at the time, playing with dolls or wanting to cheer or dance ballet. She did at LEAST allow her to have a kitchen play set, stating that all men should learn how to cook.

"traditional" people are why I generally try to go stealth (except for in safe spaces). Luckily I pass as male quite easily and so unless i tell people they'll have no idea im trans (or what chromosomes they think I should have!) and it'll save a lot of trouble - when people know its like suddenly a switch is flipped and the respect is gone. Its insane.

Can confirm, i am a tomboy cis girl and i never played with the fact that i could have been born in the wrong body and never felt "pushed to be trans" no one has ever suggested i might be trans because i have never expressed that feeling, there is such a huge difference between being a tomboy and being trans and i think people that try to make an argument out of it are stupid

ok the wildest part of this to me is that a trans person who said they experienced religious trauma FROM EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS is now still as an adult following that religion like ???? bestie they don't want you why are you doing that to yourself

Just because some people in a religion are jerks, it doesn't mean everyone in the religion is a jerk. In fact, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but I am very accepting. (I hope) Most of what people say is bad about our religion is either not true about our Religion, is an (admittedly bad) part of our culture, or is a stereotype.

I'm an atheist but forcing yourself to ignore your faith because most of that religion's groups are complete assholes is just admitting that they are right and that minorities don't belong in religious spaces (which is not true). We don't know if God exists, but we also aren't sure that he doesn't exist, we only know that a lot of the passages of the Bible these people use are contradictory and have errors from multiple rounds of translation between different languages including the transphobic, misogynistic and homophobic (cough cough Sodoma cough cough) that they use against progressive Christians.
