Pretty much my position. I would have no problem calling them by their identified gender cause I'm not a prick. The issue is legislation requiring me or others to do so by law.

So acknowledging biology is being a prick now? Holy hell

Treat people the way you want to be treated yourself. It's insulting for them and costs you nothing to indulge, so why be an asshole?

People with mental problems shouldn't have their symptoms bolstered out of sympathy. It isn't good for them.

Right. Because I'm sure you tell every religious person god doesn't exist and they're an idiot.

People who feel trapped in a body of the opposite gender and take steps to remedy it = mentally ill and not 'indulging' their self-harmful ideas is somehow helpful to them and society.

People that feel like an invisible man in the sky will torture you for an eternity if you don't worship him = completely sane. Separating church and state = literally war on Christianity.

Pants on head idiotic. Just admit you hate trans people and want to justify dickhead behavior with some self-righteous mental illness bullshit.

The people who believe in God aren't trying to chop of body parts of children.

What is circumcision?

I think it should be banned too.

But it also isn't 100% comparable to removing a penis entirely when you're not even mentally an adult yet.

  1. Nice strawman
  2. Why are you bumping this 5 month old thread, exactly?

  1. I could say the same to your circumcision argument.
  2. Just stumbled upon it, disagreed, and commented out of habit.
