To be fair, I know some (... Well at least one) people who transitioned who were actually reasonably comfortable with their birth names and so just genderswapped the name to go with their transition. If your name isn't causing you dysphoria or w/e, if it's something you've always had and are mostly comfortable with, it's other things that bother your dysphoria, it seems to follow you could just... Nudge it a bit so it matches your presentation better.

Thank goodness for this video! I just returned from a language class. A group in the class began loudly discussing how in England, Doctors are now required to ask everyone if they might be pregnant regardless of whether they looked masculine or feminine (whether this is true or not, I have no idea). They loudly brayed about how UTTERLY RIDICULOUS this notion was. I wondered whether I, a cis woman, should chime in and ask them why such a question might offend them. Is it somehow... shameful to own a womb? Is it a bad thing to be compared to a female, or to be seen in any way as feminine? What, pray tell fellows, is so bad about being seen as anything other than "man manly man man" for the five seconds it would take a Doctor to ask this important medical question that might affect the treatment some people can receive?

There is no "why" is the thing, it is inherently irrational

[@Mar_Selcouth]

It had the same logic than racism, homophobia... You're different than me, so that means I'm better than you and I don't need to accept you. The logic is that, it's irrational obviously, that's why we use the word phobia to define it "irrational fear or hate". Historically it has some rootes in religion and conservative causes, cause it defy the norm and how things should be. Cause if someone can be a trans, that make you question what makes a somone the gender they are, biology? Culture? What traits? Isn't god ho define it?

[@res6148]

Transphobia and homophobia is very irrational and always based on "what if" scenarios that never happen. People who are hateful against people who are different from them are usually scared that it might affect them. Example: They love to claim that they are just protecting their children by hating on trans people, as if a kid would suddenly become trans if it saw a trans person (the only thing it could do is make someone realize that they werent cis to begin with and thats already a looow chance)

25:39 The reason transphobes attack Elliot so much is because when he was still presenting and identifying as a woman, a lot of guys found him very attractive (and like the girl next door), so I'm guessing that now that he has come out as a trans man and has transitioned, the men who found him attractive (not all, obviously) are doing their best to dehumanize him, so they won't find him attractive anymore, and so everyone else will know they don't find him attractive anymore. Of course, there's also the transphobes who are going to be like "ew, she mutilated herself," because they are upset he doesn't appeal to them anymore. Basically, Elliot is kind of the first example of a famous "actress" who men found attractive who transitioned,

[@mrman991]

With the anti-seatbelt thing, a large part of the argument was that "injuries from car accidents increased when people were forced to wear seatbelts". This was because people who don't die in a car crash often get injuries and dead people don't get counted in those injured. It's one of those situations where people can easily twist facts to tell a different story, in this case "seatbelts cause injuries"

[@awfuldynne]

Head injuries went up when the army started wearing helmets. Same reason: dead people weren't counted among the injured, and the protective gear, in many cases, reduced lethal damage to sub-lethal.

Yes, there was an anti-seatbelt movement. kinda tapered out in the 80s. There was a whole string of commercials about the consequences. I remember one with a woman saying she didn't want to wear a seatbelt because it would wrinkle her dress. cut to her in a wheelchair with a vacant look on her face as a caregiver is adjusting her dress, commenting how we don't want it to be wrinkled. Very heavy handed. but, it was the 80s. also was an anti-motorcycle-helmet movement.

24:34 Exactly! She could have just retired as a beloved children’s author despite some of the uh… questionable themes. But by trying to insert herself in conversations and “debates” she knows nothing about, she chose to absolutely destroy her legacy. For as long as people remember who she is, there will always be an asterisk next to her name with a terf footnote and she has no one to blame but herself. 500 years from now her biography will read “popular author of the 21st century fictional series, Harry Potter, and outspoken opponent of transgender rights. She faced a number lawsuits later in life due to her vocal attacks on minority groups”. Am I am petty enough to hope that haunts her.

[@thoughtsofanobody]

12:37 I just want to add that one of the more recent anti seatbelt people, Derek Kieper, actually met his end because he was ejected from a vehicle. The other passengers, who were wearing their seatbelts, were fine. BUT, not many have the privilege of going out doing what they believed in. Sooo, good for him, I guess.

[@7-seas725]

21:28 In my experience this actually works. I went to my parents one day saying that I might be a guy, and they said you can’t switch genders. And guess what the next day I was a girl! Didn’t fix the whole being genderfluid thing though.

[@tealkerberus748]

Valid. Genderfluid isn't "switching genders" - feeling and expressing one and then another is just normal for being genderfluid. Like a lilypad that sways one way and another in a shifting current, the root of your identity isn't moving. I hope your parents get to accepting this soon. They're missing out on so much while they resist reality!

[@silverghostcat1924]

To me, the hatred aimed at trans-women is also rooted in misogyny.

[@John_Weiss]

…and in homophobia, since the bigots all think, "trans woman == f@gG0t-inna-dress." Plus, as noted s3x- and relationship-advice columnist, Dan Savage, often says, "Homophobia is Misogyny's snot-nosed little brother. Where you see one, the other isn't far away."

[@tealkerberus748]

Of course. Everything in Nazism boils down to two threads: racism and misogyny.

[@HiBuddyyyyyy]

It basically is the same thing. Transphobia is using the exact same logic and ideologies as sexism.

[@GhostofTheUchiha22]

They are being both misogynistic to trans women and cis women lol. They make cis women seem weak and make trans women seem predatory and evil. Let's face it they aren't protecting any women they just want someone to hate on

[@alexanderwolfe2962]

The bathroom thing as someone who is gender non conforming is so frustrating. I won't use gendered bathrooms. I'd rather hold it. Because if I go into the men's, I have an obviously larger chest. I also have a beard and a masculine voice, so am worried about going into the women's. Just why can't people pee?!

[@tealkerberus748]

My local city replaced all their old gendered public toilet blocks with a new design: fully ambulant, left access ambulant, right access ambulant, fully accessible. All four doors open onto a verandah that is visible to passing traffic, so if we ever get one of those weirdos that hides in public toilets waiting to assault people, there's a fair chance someone walking or driving past will see it happen. And if four cis women or four cis men arrive to use the toilets at the same time, we don't have two people waiting in a queue while two toilets go unused because they're the "wrong gender." The best trans-inclusive upgrades are the ones that make the world better for cis people too. Those are the ones that will get the most support and be replicated most widely. I hope your local authorities catch on soon.

[@toritime7581]

21:47 I used to also think the "attack helicopter" bit was a non gendered option before i knew too much about the trans community. Like, ah, im not a man or women, im a rock Turns out I was an autistic trans man, and thats why i vibed with my gender being a rock as opposed to "girl"
