there was also the awkward auto-targeting thing, where you could lock on to a number of enemies, and it would have this terrible-looking bullet time cutscene of you hitting them all

i think it's supposed to be cool or something

Well at least the tutorial taught you something.

no, it's perfect

all video games are perfect, and if you don't like it, that just means you suck, and need to get better

at least, that's what dark souls fans have taught me

i'm just saying, if i yelled at him for the same reason, people would probably bitch at me for being "controlling" or whatever

it's okay when everyone else does it though

the idea is to create an atmosphere for kids such that they wouldn't care about their identity
such that they wouldn't BECOME gender dysphoric

how would we do that? i don't know, but part of it is getting rid of transphobia

but that's what i'm saying

part of it also assumes the dysphoria isn't genetic, which, i don't see how something like that could be genetic

Probably not, as this is akin to telling someone with allergies to just not be bothered by them,
i really really don't think it is

unless there's hard evidence to suggest that gender dysphoria is purely genetic, i don't think that's an apt comparison

Well, it's fantastic. How do you even manage conditioning on that scale?
I don't know. How did we teach kids not to be racist? Or homophobic? We can do the same thing with transphobia, as well as gender dysphoria. I wouldn't know exactly how, but the fact that we've been able to do it before with other social issues tells me something.

Because if that's not what you people are saying, then I don't know what the fuck you're trying to say.

Apparently my solution is flawed in some invisible way that hasn't been explained to me at all.
"You should care about what body you were born with because ___________________________________________."

I get the general idea--you're putting a square peg in a round hole.

I'm just saying though, if my square peg was put in a round hole tomorrow, I wouldn't care, and I think it would be fantastic if we could teach everyone else not to care, too.

It would be fucking fantastic if everyone was just content with their bodies. No more body dismorphia.
What it sounds to me is that you people are saying people should continue to have body dismorphia.
Why?

And for those who happen to be dysphoric to their own accord, we should teach them that it's perfectly okay to be born with the "wrong" body. It's not harmful, and it won't change their life all that much.

I don't see what the problem is there.
But when neurochemistry and the body's composition don't match up it's like using copper antiseize where nickel belongs, DOT5 in a DOT3 system, Tempest plugs in a Lycoming, a PC3 tuned for a Dyna on a CBR, etc...
I don't know what any of that means.

Like I said earlier--how is it that I would be okay if I woke up as a woman tomorrow?
How did I learn not to care? And why shouldn't we try to teach the same thing to other people?

We should stop teaching children about the evils of racism in school.
That's like telling a depressed person to cheer up!

We should also tell all the depressed people ''just cheer up'' and those naturaly inclined to be murderers that that's probably not a good idea. Im sure that will work.
Completely incomparable disorders.

I don't see any depressed children very often, either.

That's the age of the people I'm talking about. This should be obvious.
