Quote from: Tackel on October 26, 2015, 06:28:22 PMWhy should we accept transgenders if they can't even accept themselves?Yeah tbh we should basically just kill everyone that has self-confidence issuesGenocide when?This also may have set a new record for the dumbest argument I've ever heard against trans individuals. Good job.
Why should we accept transgenders if they can't even accept themselves?

Making judgments without saying that emotions are factored in is equally as stupid, however.

It doesn't matter how much surgery you get to make yourself look like a pony. You will alway be a human. A freak of a human, but a human nonetheless.Double standards tbh fam.

do you, like, walk around with a big flashing sign that says "cunt" on top of your forehead or something?Because, I mean, I think that may very well be the only way to make it more obvious.

Consider that if a gender dysphoric individual is as fucked up as you think, they will not be able to contribute to the economy as effectively as normal people are. If you do not make strides to help/accept them, their condition will worsen and they may even become economically useless by killing themselves. Otherwise they just don't operate at an efficient level because of what they have to deal with.In the interest of the economy, should we not humor them? Considering how large a portion of the population they represent?
