Conservatives don’t want you to exist. All other arguments they put forward are just soft-pedaling to that end goal.
Bro is more masculine looking than me by half, handsome to boot, and has very piercing eyes. Maybe they don’t want him in the men’s room because they will feel inferior or sexually confused (again).
I promise you there is a swarm of conservatives posting “you’ll never be a woman!” right at this moment.
He never wanted to be.
Which just makes it so much better. I hope OOP has a long, happy life as the man they were meant to be.
sexually confused (again)
When half-conscious homosexual stirrings clash with the knowledge that he’s a trans man, ho boy
Lol that looks so much like my ex-girlfriend (now happily a man and married) that if OP hadn’t fuckin linked who it actually was I’d have pinged him to see if it was
This sentence was a glorious rollercoaster ride.
Thank you for this, it made my day!
I love the sentiment - but does anyone know if it’s real? Or who the original poster is? @ickplant posts a lot of… borrowed content… I mean it’s great content - but I sure don’t trust the veracity. Fact checking and due credit matters - even on ‘feel good’ stuff.
This is Michael Hughes, you can read about him here, but there is a paywall: https://www.postbulletin.com/news/local/he-fought-against-anti-trans-bathroom-bills-a-decade-ago-now-michael-hughes-is-fighting-back-again
Here is a screenshot:
Thank you so much for providing the source! I LOVE THIS.
Like the old days of Reddit.
I’ve come home.
@ickplant posts a lot of… borrowed content…
Watch your mouth. They contribute more to Lemmy than the vast majority of users.
Asking for sources should never be shamed. As an OG Redditor that’s part of what caused its collapse.
That’s not the part that was shamed, was it?
Totally! I checked and over half the stuff that I forward is posted by @ickplant - posting content is a lot harder than lurking - but giving credit adds so much depth.
I LOVE that they just posted the source because I get to TRULY enjoy the post now.
Conservatives don’t want people like this to exist at all. They want to force him to live life as a woman.
That’s not at all weird. First off, you are assuming that their arguments are in good faith. I’ll give you a way to always know when their arguments are in bad faith: They’re conservatives. It’s the only arguments they have. Second, they want you in the women’s bathrooms and locker rooms so that they can gang up and kick your ass because you are clearly a man. That’s the whole reason.
Or to hide away at home so that they don’t have to explain to their children that sometimes other people do stuff that isn’t your business.
Nah the kids are strictly an excuse of convenience. So much of conservative antipathy toward gay, queer, trans, etc people amounts to ‘get back in the closet so that I can forget that people who are different than me exist.’ They are willing to heap a lot of hate, discrimination, etc upon other people just so they don’t have to be a little uncomfortable occasionally. Pretty much any time someone drops a ‘Won’t someone please think of the children?!’ what they mean is ‘I hate this but I can frame it as being about protecting children so I don’t look like a hateful bastard.’
NVM you meant the conservatives waiting outside the bathroom not the women inside of it.
Well it might also make the women inside feel uncomfortable, which is a bonus. Now more people are uncomfortable about the issue, so they can further drive wedges.
Homie’s got a sick aesthetic. I love that phone case.
handsome 😮💨😮💨
Cool phone case
Does not have to be Before Christ.
