Slippery slope, mate. Slippery slope. You start accepting the gays and the transes and next thing you know, you'll be driving one of them goshdarn electric cars and installing solar panels on your roof. Is that really how you want to live your life?

Here’s an idea: You don’t get to decide if being trans is normal or fine. You don’t get to decide how others choose to live their life or express themselves. You don’t know the struggles that we go through; the hate we have to deal with daily.

Walk a mile in our shoes. We now have to worry about people following us into bathrooms. Our access to medical care and resources, as grown adults, is somehow up for debate. We’ve been scrubbed from nearly all federal websites. We are being removed from anti-discrimination policies, and for what purpose? What good does that do?

There is a reason why our suicide rates are so high. The lack of acceptance by our own families, by the nation we were taught in school is the greatest on earth.

We are defensive because we are afraid that we will be pushed to the edge of society—back into the shadows—because people are uncomfortable with us.

We deserve the same life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that any American deserves. I am a goddamn American citizen, born and raised, and I feel like this country would rejoice if I were dead.

My ex said to me, upon finding out that I wasn’t straight: What if our son grows up to be not straight? I told her: I hope he grows up to be straight. I don’t wish the evils of this world upon him, just for being who he is.

That was a truly sad day for me.

Being a patriot means fighting for ALL Americans, not just those that you believe deserve it.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

Edit: I may have bitten the onion. I really hope this post was meant as satire. But it’s hard to parse these days.

As a trans person myself I feel qualified to speak in this issue. We can all agree that the point of life is to suffer and create shareholder value and then die. It's just Common Sense. That's why when someone is already suffering, say because their very identity is denied to them and they are systemically discriminated against and an entire population is propagandized to hate them and view them as corruptive monsters, it's vitally important to make them suffer more. As an added bonus, inflicting grievous harm upon the downtrodden is a healthy way for others to vent their anger!

What's worse is that some people think that the point of life is not to suffer and create shareholder value and die! And they think that they can change that!? It's Ridiculous! You should be suffering at all times in life because that is how it has been and Always Will Be. To suggest otherwise is when you deny Reality.

Estrogen is a performance enhancing drug. Studies have shown that a certain level of estrogen confers superhuman programming ability (source). Computer programming used to be dominated by women who naturally achieved this level of estrogenic enlightenment. Then men took it over through the merit-based system of systemic violence and discrimination. Now, however, we're encountering more women who can control the levels of estrogen present in their bodies. There is no way to compete.

Recommend you just change the dinner conversation topic to women in the military because that's always a winner.

How about, who fucking cares. You do you boo.
