I support equal rights all around. That means people can do whatever the fuck they want tp do with their own bodies and their own lives, and it doesn’t matter one whit to me what a person’s gender, sex, religion, or whatnot is. Trans people and women should have the same rights as any other fucking human. Not more, and not less.
The person’s actions and attitude towards the world are their biggest impact, and the metric by which I judge which associations to keep in my life. … not their gender or any other category. Demanding extra rights because you’re male, female, white, black, cis, trans, gay, straight, etc will fall on deaf ears for me. Asking to be heard because you’re hurt won’t.
But if you use your pain as an excuse to assume the worst about others, while trying to come off as being a good person, I’ll continue to say this:
like, if some ethnic or other group of people thought they were better than others, and wanted to rig government policy to adversely affect other ethnic or other groups, and tell them what they can and can’t do with their own bodies?
but… maybe I’m being unrealistic, and that would never happen.
…or maybe… …just maybe… you’re caught in a viscous loop of which you are a primary contributing party - where you are hurt by the world, so you lash out at people who aren’t a part of the problem, and see enemies everywhere - thereby relegating yourself to an unmanageable situation that is only partially (but still significantly) of your own making.
maybe… …just maybe… you have to take responsibility for your own situation, even though it’s not your fault, but just you being caught up in the larger evolutionary sweep of life.
Are other people also a part of the problem? sure. But you can’t address it if you’re off-balance.

Grow. Or repeat. It’s the law.
Uhhh oh. Gee I wonder that those might be

You have any examples of this being done?
