Transgenderism: When the brain develops in such a way that leads it to expect stimulus from the senses that would normally come from a body of the other gender.

Homosexuality: When the brain develops in such a way that leads it to select for mates that have traits more in common with members of the same gender.


I don't see anything here that could be construed as immoral, or anything that needs any more fixing than blue-eyes, left-handedness, curly hair or tallness, or any other abnormalities.

Homosexuality is real. It's always been around. The fact that the Christians wrote it into their book is proof that it existed in those days too. Also, Ancient Greece.

Liberal propaganda? That's just a straw man argument thrown out by the religious Right to make themselves seem more credible. Both sides do it, but you asked about that quote in particular.

I've said it here before, homosexuality is more than likely a congenital disorder with no harmful effects on the individual or society. You could compare it to albinism and red hair.

Gay pride, as abrasive as certain of the bigot community can find it, has it's place.

It's not aimed at pissing off bigots, or even at raising awareness among the potentially friendly heterosexual community.

It is aimed at the closeted community. People who are in the closet can at least see just how many gay people there are out there. If they are from particularly oppressive backgrounds, there is a chance they could lose their friends or even family if they come out, but with the parades they can see that they need not be alone.

Besides, gay pride parades are way more like Paddy's Day and way less like Mardi Gras or Spring Break.

And besides all of this, I think that one day gay pride parades will be rare as fuck. They only exist as a response to the construct of the gays as a community, and to the idea of the closet, like I said, and because people are considered gay/straight. When the time comes that the closet is useless, and that (I hate to use the term people-sexual, since it implies we are all bisexual, when in fact most people are way more attracted to one gender or the other, and most of them are more attracted to the opposite gender) we are all fluid in our sexual desires to some degree or another, then gay pride will be about as open as chubby chaser pride, or whatever other sexual preference one might have.

And besides, nobody is claiming that transexuality is not a mental problem (maybe some people are, but not me). I am a transexual, and I have a problem. My brain is not in sync with my body. I want to solve this problem. I want to be a woman. But if there was a treatment that could make me not want to be a woman, and would actually work, I would consider it strongly. If there were a treatment that were able to make me into a woman (without surgery, can't do it), I would take it without a second thought.

Here's a question for Christians to ponder.

What do you tell a person who is born with both male and female sexual organs (rare chromosomal disorder). How can that person determine what their true gender is? How do they know what "straight" is for them, and how do they know they aren't engaging in homosexual behavior?
For such a person, it would be very difficult to follow God's law because they can't truly know if they are breaking it or not. So how does a human hermaphrodite get into heaven, and how do you instruct this person in going about it?

They don't go to heaven. The only reason such questions even appear to be dilemmas are because you think Christians have to subscribe to some kind of affirmative action for heaven-admittance. However, it is clearly the case that people with inferior bodies don't go to heaven. These bizarre freak may not have sex with anyone or have any sexual thoughts, in which case it goes to purgatory. If it makes a child, it can go to heaven as long as it lives a good life. If it has non procreative sex, it goes to hell just like every other spiller of seed.

It is a contract two adults can enter into. Why not any two adults?

We can establish that the creation of children is not sufficient reason to allow marriage, in that two sterile or elderly people can already marry without legal problem.

Marriage is something I feel the state should stay out of entirely. And I see no reason why any two people shouldn't be able to say they have one, and hold whatever ceremony they like to establish that fact with their friends and families. And if people insist they have to have a contract to make this official, it's none of the states business which two adults sign any given contract.

First point - No reason for the state to reward this. Contracts can be drawn which don't invoke state benefits. That is to say, marriage is unnecessary.

Second point - How is discrimination retarded? Why don't I give everyone huge tax breaks? After all, they're benign.

Third point - Yes, the state will best serve the public by allocating tax funds (or breaks) in such a way that increases the public good. This means rewarding actions which help the public, such as having babies who will stimulate the economy.

Although I find an uncontrollable revulsion to anything transgender (if I see and hear it at the same time, I feel sick), I have a odd sympathy toward transgender individuals. Admit it, we live in a very gendered society. By simply displaying yourself as a specific gender, it alters the way everyone thinks about you.

Now imagine someone from a world who is neither female or male. How will it (because even language reinforces gender through use of he & she) even fit into a society like ours? Which bath room will it go to? What will it put on a medical exam if the only available choices are male or female? Believe it or not, there are people (a small minority, not large at all) who have to suffer like this, although many decide to be one gender over the other.

Although I have conformed to these gender norms, it pains me that others have a far more difficult time than I.

To be fair, your idea of marriage as a tax break for breeders isn't what anybody is lobbying for, and isn't what most bigots think they are protecting either.

Would you agree that, assuming you care about this in real life at all, your time would be spent better lobbying to eliminate the marriages of sterile (unless they adopt or receive IVF), willfully childless (until such time as they declare they will attempt to have children) and elderly people (once they cease producing or directly supporting children), rather than preventing the marriages of homosexuals? Just because there are more of these leeches on the system than there are homosexuals entirely, never mind homosexuals who want to marry one another.

It shouldn't have to serve a purpose. It is a simple contract that two people may sign. I don't even think it should come with tax benefits in and of itself (not least because I don't think we should be paying taxes in the first place). There is an argument for tax breaks (if we insist on such things) for children, but I see no reason to distinguish in this case between children who are natural and those who are adopted or from a surrogate, whether the couple in question are straight or gay, or the single parent is man or woman.

Well, sir. It appears you have invented a position on this matter that specifically excludes homosexuals from marriage, without having to mention them in particular once. And since you are happy to also exclude the other kinds of couples who cannot or will not produce a child naturally together, it's not really internally inconsistent.

I have never heard of this particular position before, but well done.

These are all tangential to the conception of marriage. Remember, what I'm talking about with marriage is only this - some sort of state benefits for producing and raising children. I am not saying this is the best system, I am saying it is the only consistent idea of a legal marriage.

That being said, I'll answer all these: adopted children do not warrant tax breaks, in my opinion. Adopted children will be raised anyway. If orphanages are paid for by public money (I honestly do not know whether) then perhaps it makes sense to give tax breaks to those who adopt. But this shouldn't be tied to marriage. Same for foster children, although I don't know much of the difference.

Surrogates, in my opinion, should effectively run like this: the married people use the money from their tax break to pay the surrogate, and everyone's happy. All we're trying to do is encourage babymaking and subsequent raising.

Test-tube babies can be rewarded if you raise them. Step-children should be treated like the child of the current couple, depending on how custody has gone.

There is also a conception where subsequent raising the children after birthing can not be rewarded at all. I think this is prone to funny concepts of having a child and then putting it up to adopting for a tax break, which doesn't sit well with me.

As a pragmatist, I suggest that the trans-genderist places too much emphasis on their body as a part of who they are. This type of behavior is also prevalent in narcissists and in many of those with low self-esteem. I have no problem with the TG who wants to undergo surgery anymore than I have a problem with the narcissist who wants a nose job. That being said, there is a distinction to be made, in so far as a successful nose job seeks only to change shape and contour, whereas TG operations seek to restructure the whole body. Although I also have no problem with this, I do have a problem with TGs that expect to then be treated like women. Mainly this is because there are obvious distinctions between TGs and women (and the obverse, clearly). Yet somehow these days to call a TG a TG is labeled obscene.

I should add to my point about marriage as a promise to produce kids for the state - until 1965 it was illegal for married couples to use contraception. This form of marriage had a very very strong basis in society until the sexual revolution, when it turned into a sort of love-contract.

>> No.2639844

I suppose we differ in that, I would go further than you in that I would not have any marriage condoned by the state at all.

As it stands now, though, I see no reason to consider marriage different from any other contract. And so freely entered into by any two adults. Or more, even. Who gives a fuck who you marry, and how many you marry?

But back to reality, when you consider all the other features of marriage, from next of kin to visitation to about a hundred different things, one of which is tax benefits (which is the only part you don't like). So why not have an everything in marriage but just not the tax thing? Would you be cool with that?

Well, I agree that marriage shouldn't be condoned at all. I think it's necessary to come up with a reason that marriage is being rewarded by the government when we're talking about why homosexuals deserve that marriage.

Everything in marriage other than things which do not impact other people is perfectly fine. If there are other state benefits which are thrown in, for example, say married couples can skip ahead in the DMV, then a marriage must display societal value. In all private contexts, the owners should determine who can and cannot associate etc.

I don't even think this kind of non-state marriage must be a contract, although it could be. I think that if society understood this thing as legitimate, eventually the concept would fade out as unnecessary. Hospital visitation and whatnot would see the case without a specific document needing to be presented.

That's a bit of an overstatement. They haven't always been female. They couldn't possibly have felt female before they were aware of gender and sexual (intercourse) roles.

Their brains were abnormal before they were aware of anything at all. They don't really know anything at all is wrong until they are old enough to start to think about gender roles. And they don't really know the extent of the problem until they realise they are heading towards a puberty they don't really want.

From this basic issue, a lot of other mental issues can develop, narcissism like you say, what is perhaps an unhealthy level of interest in perfecting their bodies, as well as far darker impulses. But these stem from the underlying issue, they don't cause it. Though admittedly these secondary problems often present earlier, since transexuals do learn to conform to expectations very quickly as well.

I probably didn't make my point clear, I'm quite tired. What I meant to say was that I completely understand that they are mentally female (that is, they associate with values that are sociologically female). What I'm saying though is the problem is that they associate being "female" in mind with requiring a female body to match it. Now some here might say "well that's stupid, you don't need a female body to enjoy having a female mind" but the two problems I see with this are: First, they have the right to choose to get whatever surgery they think will help them have a female body; and second, they probably feel pressured to do so because society does not accept men who 'act like women'. Of course the latter is similar to the problem homosexuals have, to a lesser extent now than in the past of course, but it's still prevalent. Moving on: IF the TG (man to woman in my example) goes through with the surgeries that is fine for the reasons above, however, they are still deficient as a woman. I don't mean to imply either that they are not perhaps more feminine and in terms of gender they are more female, but there are still fundamental differences, namely in their body structure and ability to reproduce. Now someone might say: well some people BORN women can't reproduce and that's true - and this is viewed as a deficiency. Why should we not then view TGs to have this same deficiency?

Your argument is so empirically incorrect I just pissed myself. I am telling you that it literally makes no sense to say someone thinks of himself as a female before he even understands what a female is. It necessarily must be a response to environmental information or conditioning. Also, we should expect transsexualism to stay exactly constant throughout every genetically similar group with this idea of non-conditioning. Of course, that probably isn't the case.

Babies are born gay. Pedophilia has a strong link to childhood abuse, but I see no reason to think some people are not born that way. In any case, if any of these things are not the result of genetic factors, they are certainly not a choice a person actively makes, they result from developmental factors in the womb, or during childhood.

The transexual is born with a brain that is keyed to expect female input. It doesn't get it. It's not a preference like for red or blue, which is only developed when you actually see both, it's a condition they are born with. My point about red was that a child, or anyone, can have an experience before they have the words to describe it.


If you are describing transexual as someone who undergoes a transition, or wants to undergo transition, then babies are not born like that. If you mean the condition that causes the brain to develop out of sync with the body, well, babies are probably born like that, or it develops very early in childhood.

If I took two regular infants and could successfully switch their brains, they would grow up with neurological structures in place which would predispose them to sexual habits. Yes, sex hormones effect development and orientiation, BUT, THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING ALREADY THERE FOR THEM TO EFFECT

WE HAVE DISSECTED INFANTS. MALE AND FEMALES HAVE MEASUREABLE DIFFERENCES EVEN AT BIRTH. DEAL WITH IT.

You don't understand the point I'm making. I acknowledge that there exist preconditions which are associated with later becoming transsexual. I'm not going to repeat what my real argument is, because you're not going to grasp it. I acknowledge that there exist preconditions which are associated with later becoming transsexual
>>2640104
Yes, and I will say that female babies do not have a female mind in the sense that transsexual males do. Do you understand what I mean? Female babies don't want to do female things. The sense in which transsexual males have a female mind is different from the sense in which female babies have a female mind.

>>What is Sexual Orientation and Do Women Have One
>>J. Micheal Bailey
>The category specific male sexual arousal pattern is the primary sexual motivation that directs male sexual activity to certain kinds of individuals (most often women, but sometimes men) rather than others. Indeed, I content that a man's category specific male sexual arousal pattern IS his sexual orientation. Most women lack this strong directional motivation, and so it is not surprising that their sexual behavior is more malleable and sexually fluid. . .I review research on the male sexual arousal pattern and argue for equating sexual arousal pattern with sexual orientation.

Why are you using "effect" improperly? Are you okay?

I'm saying that the mental state we look at to determine if a man is transsexual is not the mental state of either transsexual male babies or female babies. I didn't say all babies had identical brains.

>> No.2640146

>>2640130
You're trying to argue that the infant brain has NO pre-existing methods of thinking, that it is 100% culturally dependent, and somehow transexuals are simply people who refute their own culture-gender-identity... for whatever reason you think.

>> No.2640152

>>2640130

Female babies do not have the same brain as male babies, though. And baby transexuals would, though no such study exists, likely have brains close to those of babies of the opposite gender.

Female things is fairly irrelevant, just cultural flotsam and jetsam. Looking at what females in society do and wanting to emulate or avoid that behavior is what is relevant.

>> No.2640157

>>2640146
No. Babies have a way of thinking. This way of thinking is not what is referred to when we describe the way transsexuals think. Therefore, babies are not transsexual. Transsexuals do indeed refute (???) culture-gender-identity, but they also refute physical-gender-identity, both of which lies far beyond the mental range of a baby.

>she cites only American studies
Yeah, this is the #1 problem with American sexual studies. At least 90-95% of the men research have been sexually mutilated (circumcision). There's plenty of American studies of 1) women not really liking sex 2) women having few orgasms 3) men seeking out sex more than women, etc. BUT when we look the effect circumcision has, it cuts female orgasm rates in half and worse (women who have slept with circ and uncirc men report twice as many orgasms with uncirc men, American women have twice the sexual dysfunction rates, it's well known circumcised penises decrease female lubrication AND cause men to have more forceful intercourse as a result of less nerves)

>>2640152
If you want to ignore gender roles entirely, then transsexuality becomes almost senseless. Most transsexuals want more than just their genitals changed. They want to change the way they live their lives to change. This means they are making reference to some kind of gender role, be it innate or societal.

Babies cannot think in the same way that transsexual males about the concept of gender shifts.

Nobody was talking about gender roles in specifics, they were talking about how babies pick up cultural cues as they age.

Female babies take their cues on how they should act from who they identify as female role models, and male babies do the same for male role models. Transexual babies, because of their abnormal brains, pick up a number of cues from the other gender. This is over years and years as they pass through childhood, and probably still goes on as an adult to some degree.

The specifics of what men and women do in any society are not relevant.

>> No.2640241

>>2640233
Your sexual arousal patterns are therefore male rather than female. This implies you have something specifically male about your mind. Therefore, you are not really a woman in a man's body.
