The Language Of Trauma

Imagine being a legitimate victim, and then having some sheltered white kid tell you that they, like, totally understand, because a guy hit on them once.

Technically true. On many levels, Lilith is biologically female - depending on how long ago she transitioned medically, her skeleton is probably starting to resemble a cis woman's (the pelvis is metabolically active throughout your life & can remodel extensively even into adulthood, and is the only bone that can, on its own, conclusively identify a skeleton as male/female. The skull has some features that differentiate a male skeleton from a female skeleton, but the features used to differentiate are relative and are frequently ambiguous.) - at the very least, if she dies of old age her skeleton will probably be androgynous. Her blood hormone levels are probably hard to distinguish definitively from a cisgender woman's, and same for a few other biological markers. However, most of the conditions the "Biological sex is complicated" crowd talks about are, well, disorders.

[@Apostate_ofmind]

@@Harrier42861 no. Transition doesnt actually make you morphologically female. Even if you castrate chikdren, the genes are still too strong. And no, archeologists still can tell with ease. The remodelation you speak of applies to all bones, but doesnt change proportions. The only real change is the onset of osteoporosis 😑 Source, i literally majored in biology. Aftee puberty you can change even less, but to reiterate: even if you castrate a child, the proportions still remain because the phenocritical window is in utero.

When that didn't work and she gave an excuse, gave up. The girl has very clearly never had a stranger just chat them up out of nowhere before, and it's probably traumatic for them. Why? Because they're probably terminally online, and hear endless stories of evil men who'll abuse you, and was terrified that was what was happening. The trauma isn't because of some real thing that happened to them, or their lack of experience dealing with people, but because their frame of reference is so fucking damaged and broken that they can't handle the situation properly.

When myself and her friend tell her no one can give her discipline but herself, that's "violent speech". When I say to her she needs to stop putting herself thousands of dollars in debt through buying things online, I'm "gaslighting". She hasn't held down a real job in 20 of the 30 years I've been alive because she's been running a crusade against our government about how being expected to be an adult is "abusive". And when I say I wish I had had an emotionally available parent during my teenage years, I'm "oppressing" her for her choice to go be a hooker during that time.

They won't stop whining about their supposed problems all the while they don't do shit with their lives. They expect this cozy candyland world where the littlest of inconveniences are enough of an excuse not to try. I know these people because I was one of them. You don't know how much opportunities I missed in life because of my own supposed insecurities. Of course, as I entered the 9th Grade or so, even I saw every kid like me was just this walking hot mess born without a spine. I got so frustrated that I dropped my reclusive nature altogether and accepted responsibility in my life. I got into the honor roll, made some good friends, and got a reputation as a hard-working honest and reliable guy. So trust me, this infantile shit won't get you anywhere. Accept adulthood, but don't fully renounce your childhood.

@@ImortalZeus13 The word you're looking for is ‘courtesy’. Courtesy can be understood as polite behavior and mannerisms. Being courteous is when an individual displays politeness. In various social situations, people have to be courteous to others. For instance, a salesperson that is assisting clients is usually very courteous. His behavior, words and even mannerisms highlight respect for the client. However, one does not have to be truly respectful of another to be courteous. It is more of a façade that people wear when dealing with others. For example, you are courteous to a person you have just met, a waiter or cashier is courteous towards the diners or buyers. We can even be courteous towards people we dislike. This is because being courteous does not require admiration for the individual, it merely promotes polite social interactions.

If someone feels "traumatized" by innocuous things - if they are genuinely that neurotic - then they have a mental illness. Period. The defining element of mental disorder is when certain beliefs or experiences interfere with your ability to live a normal life. Caring about these people means wanting them to seek treatment, not enabling self-destructive behavior. It's ridiculous and insulting to suggest to someone who, for example, has seen the horrors of war first-hand that doing dishes or being hit on is "traumatic".

[@AdamOwenBrowning]

I was on an institution where an "inmate" refused to be called mentally ill because it's derisive, abusive language. ...It's a descriptor. These people are all mentally ill. A lot of people who appear "normal" in comparison to these jokers are also mentally ill. Nobody wants to take that moniker because it involves being given less power. They want all the power, NO responsibility. I can accept that I'm not stable and I have to adjust around other people. These people refuse to accept their instability and demand their entire social landscape acclimatizes to their incredibly unstable feelings. For a period, i was so grateful in my recovery to all the staff who had genuinely worked with me, that I sought a career in their area. That was quite a few years ago and I gave up half-way because of the political minefield it's become. I don't want to lose a career one day because some screecher felt offended.

[@DrachonaTheWolf]

@@AdamOwenBrowning The first step of recovery is admitting you have a problem, as they say. You are correct that plenty of people are mentally ill or, in other words, have some kind of mental dis-order. Every single person alive has insecurities; psychological problems that they could improve on. For some, those problems are more debilitating. And yes, they don't want to admit they have a problem because that means taking responsibility for your own self-improvement. It's not that you're mentally or physically weak. It's not that you're dangerously overweight, as another example. No, it's everyone else's fault. They convince themselves of this because they fear the alternative; because strengthening yourself isn't easy. It takes time, and there are no short-cuts. You can't blame your failures on anyone else. What they don't realize is that it's an exercise. Like lifting weights, it gets easier the more you do it, and you can push yourself further and further. You find that you're stronger in other areas as well. You have more energy. You sleep better. Your immune system is stronger, etc. It's pretty straightforward that taking care of something makes it last and letting it fall apart will cause a bunch of problems. I'm sure the realm of helping people is somewhat held hostage by people with this harmful mentality. With that said, it takes good people who understand and accept reality to counter that. My brother is a veteran who suffered from PTSD and was a heroin addict, but now he's a counselor for other vets. I guess I would just say: don't completely discount that field of work because of other people. There might be a time and place for you to step in and counter their nonsense with a mindset that's genuinely helpful to those in need.

at this point, many of us have just stopped caring about "pronouns". at least in the places were we aren't gonna get arrested for it. in america, for the most part, anyone with pronouns is just getting either ignored, or outright laughed at bar universities. same goes for trauma. The world is not a safe place, and it's about time we start reminding people that even still, they have a job(s) to do.

People with actual trauma: "I had to watch my father beat my mother to death when I was six years old. The cries of my mother screaming for help and for my father to stop and the images of her dead body still haunt me to this day. I don't think I'll ever be able to recover." "I had to go to war and watch as my friends around me were slaughtered like pigs, having their heads and limbs blown off in a horrible conflict we saw no escape from. Everytime a firework goes off, I get reminded of that horrible, horrible war." People with "trauma": "That's nothing, my roommate asked me to do the laundry and I *freaked* out because that's *so* transphobic." People with actual trauma: "..."

I've been told to get help for PTSD (I didn't want to and don't feel like I've coped as badly as examples like you mentioned) then I left because the place was full of these people who trivialize it and make a mockery of it.

[@TheTGOAC]

@@WarningStrangerDanger the unfortunate part is that if there resources in place to help people, genuinely help people, more than likely the first people to use it are the ones who will take advantage the most. The well fed man makes it to the food table faster than the starving one.

Yeah, and these are not the only examples in which they fail to maintain coherence. Also attaching the words "man" and "woman" to their definition of "gender" instead of the sex of the individual (as was originally intended) is stupid.

You can't get traumatized by learning a childhood lesson as an adult. Trauma refers to a severe emotional issue. These are self absorbed children who never grew up, and are devaluing language to the point where no one believes them anymore.

My whole thing is if you treat me with basic human dignity and respect, I will do the same. I'll use your pronouns, and I'll do what I can to not make you uncomfortable. But the moment you start *demanding* that I accommodate you, the only pronouns you'll get from me are "Fuck/You."

[@vla1ne]

got a person at my local card shop who appears to be trans. don't know, never asked em. easily one of the coolest dudes at the shop, and we go rounds every few weeks in the yugioh tournaments. if trans people want to be treated like normal people, it is literally as simple as not trying to drag their gender into every conversation. the people online making everything about gender/pronouns are just annoying. they don't realize that the easiest way to be accepted by any community, is to not be stupid about it.

[@CTViewer07]

That is my general mindset when dealing with trans leftoids. The moment they start acting like a victim and pushing politics into my face and demand to join in their “trans rights” pet politics. They’re getting a “fuck you get out of my face Florbo!”. If you act like a normal human being, you get treated like a human being. If you act like a spoiled brat leftoid, I’m going to treat you like a spoiled brat leftoid.

It’s not respectful to enable mental illness. It’s abuse. Would you call an anorexic “porky”? Speaking truth is respectful

[@lollertoaster]

@@tann_man Social transition (being recognize as the gender you identify with) is not only the only form of therapy that works but also it's 100% effective. Teens who received puberty blockers and went through pubery later in life according to their gender had the same exact statistics on suicide, deppresion, etc. as their cis peers. Then there are people like you who find it below their dignity to not ruin someone's day or, over long time of this threatment, someone's life because of some warped sense of morality. Being openly trans and not having to worry about "tricking" people would not be an issue if self-rigtheus assholes like you didn't walk this Earth. After transition I gave up on my two greatest passions, swimming and singing, because of how people would see me or threat me. I was very open and eager for conversation with a stranger and now I'm always anxious to open my mouth. Because being trans is such a big deal to some people I never feel comfortable to just say it and be accepted without questions. How are you 'not enabling mental illness' when you are literally taking away someone's only cure for their dissatisfaction in life? You are looking at a person who is cured of their mentall illness, who no longer experiences any of the negative symptoms of gender dysphoria and say "I'm sorry, but according to my belives, you need to suffer". What if you had an autistic friend, who asks you to turn off some of the lights and play the music a liitle less louder, because they are overloaded? Would you cave in to their delusional demands and enable their mental illness, or would you do the respectful thing and explain to them that lights aren't actually that bright and if you wanted you could turn ever more of them and that music is within the noise limit set by HOA?

For a guy, especially one who is down on himself, who has no confidence to hit on a girl knowing that he might be totally rejected and fail, and then to put his balls on the line as he does so, those balls are what make a real man!! the men that were there when we defended the french and polish against the Nazis. Hard men.

To quote Benjamin Franklin, “Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

[@PublicLeeSpeaking]

Trauma has changed from something that was a reason for incapability, where the Traumatized were given some understanding but were still treated as incapable, to an excuse from it, giving the 'Traumatized' the ability to control others by demanding concessions be made for themselves or else you would be beat down with the cudgel of social ostracization for being a 'bad person'. In so doing, Trauma became a source of power, and when the normal mechanisms for teaching someone the safe and proper use of power were stripped away, be it through malignance, thoughtlessness, or just plain laziness, is it any wonder that it's metastasized into this social cancer?
