@somegenericnam8 @MarxistHeathen but they see that as a problem to be solved by tightening up the border, and idgaf my point here is that you can understand where someone stands almost immediately from the next sentence of what might seem like similar rhetoric. and usually that sentence is the normative one

@somegenericnam8 @MarxistHeathen ...probably aligns with your own idea of helping trans people when bigots talk about it, they picture different ways of dealing with it. this happens literally all the time with everything. i can agree with a conservative that illegal immigration is happening...

@MarxistHeathen i think my framework is better than a framework that naturalizes dysphoria on insufficient grounds. it definitely is a better framework when pretty much everyone who has replied to me here seems to be minimizing the effects of different insecurities on other people. that's mean!

@MarxistHeathen no transphobe will just stop at "dysphoria is an insecurity" without also saying five different things more direct. besides, i think insecurity is a bad thing that can be solved by medical intervention!

@ClaireXenoatDay some people have certain desires that should be available to them through better healthcare ofc, but that doesn't make them more trans or whatever

@ClaireXenoatDay hrt is one way to transition successfully for some people, but it is not all-encompassing for every trans person. same goes for more specific interventions like certain surgeries. transness is basically about how one self-IDs

My mom brought up a good point the other day in that it is essential for c1s people to stop viewing transitioning as like analogous to hair transplants and to start viewing it in terms of insulin access for diabetics and blood pressure medication for people with hypertension.

@UkeCreature you do not need hrt to be trans, some people can learn to love and accept themselves as they are. and dysphoria is basically just insecurity. these are all consistent with being okay with trans people. i think transphobes say very different stuff

@KusonekoVT i think all four things are extremely serious, and basically all four could be considered driven by insecurity depending on the context

Sure, dysphoria is "just insecurity" in the same way that: - depression is being "a little sad" - starvation is being "a little hungry" - social anxiety is being "a little shy" - etc. 🙄

@banditposting @itslaylatime hrt isn't necessary for transness in the same way that laser isn't necessary. they are necessary for some people to feel comfortable in their own body/gender, so they should have access to them, but transness is not (and should not be) defined by one's desire for these things

@banditposting @itslaylatime but i do agree that these things are often life-saving! but some people don't require them to feel comfortable in their gender transition. type 1 diabetics literally require insulin to live with no exception (afaik)

@TheNC64 many depressed people don't need antidepressants, yes. depression is a multifactorial disease that can have very different symptoms depending on the person, and sometimes that means that therapy/changing environment is enough as a treatment. i don't support "just get over it" ofc

@pcuser1968 @UkeCreature Depressed people don’t need anti-depressants they just need to suck it up. My name is RJK Junior and I endorse this message.

@a_hiding_person trans people believe all sort of crazy stuff about gender/sex that i have no desire in entertaining. some trans people believe that people are born cis lol or that you can only change your gender and not your biological sex

lmfao no they are not you’re actually transphobic dude. dysphoria is not just insecurity it’s consistent immense discomfort with the traits of your birth sex. also saying “you don’t need HRT to be trans” during hrt bans is just allying with the oppressive state

@CameliaLovesU and obviously you can still "expand further details" while inside the framework of insecurity. not one of you has shown why it would be a "slippery slope"

@CameliaLovesU my point was that i think our categories are adequate already, in the same way that we understand race really well but we obviously don't live in a post-racial society. this is a failure of our politics because getting what we want is hard, not a failure of our definitions

@d0gdyk3 trans people are not a monolith and definitely not the authority on gender

@whatdestroysy0u right wingers are talking about dysphoria as an extremely discomforting insecurity that can potentially be solved through medical intervention and patient agency? wow, i wonder why they also support banning trans healthcare
