Revoking Transgender Civil Rights

[Superrage]

This is just more fear mongering bullshit from the news. These are the same news organizations that told you it would be the end of the world of trump won. The world hasn't ended. I'd ignore this.

Usually, It Would Have Been Spoken About Already on This Forum.But It Hasnt..& I Am Very Curious To See Why No One Is Talking About This Subject Yet...This Forum Is Usually a Good Place To Know What The Populous Is Chattering About Around The Water Cooler.


So #45 Is Considering Some More World Domination....What Do You Peeps Think?? This Thing is Really Gaining Momentum!

Here is The Article:

Girl, on a board where over 80% of the forum topics include slurs against trans women you can’t expect any of the participants to give 2 shits about our rights.

Most of the guys here were hoping when SESTA/FOSTA was enacted we’d all be out working the streets.

So now most of them are probably hoping we’ll be shoved back into the closet like some dirty little secret.
I mean really, I think there’s a total of 3 guys who have ever posted here who have had face pics on their profile. Nearly all the posters here don’t want anyone to find out they are turned on by trans women, and they sure as hell don’t make any kind of decent trans ally.

But as long as there are “down low” guys we’ll continue to be OK financially.

It is real, and it is happening, and not just in the USA-

Viktor Orban, who has rejected the EU’s vision of liberal democracy, issued a decree to revoke accreditation and funding for gender studies programmes at the two universities that provide them in the central European country earlier in October.
“The government’s standpoint is that people are born either male or female, and we do not consider it acceptable for us to talk about socially constructed genders rather than biological sexes,” a spokesman for the prime minister said.

Many people think "what's the point of even discussing this?", especially when the Trump fans/apologists here are either unable or unwilling to engage in sensible and honest discussion.

Nice of you to demonstrate my point so clearly.

I doubt that PDT has an opinion either negative or positive about the Trans community..

However, I think Middle America has a problem when so-called Liberal positions that go against common sense (such as allowing Trans woman athletes to compete against genetic females).

Everyone (except Trans activists) knows that this is ridiculous and unfair. Trans athletes should recognize the patent unfairness of the situation and not aggitate for this particular "right.". There will be a backlash.

It's porn forum. I am not expecting a lot. However, if you want to something to be done encourage people to vote. Talking about what to do isn't going to fix anything. Asking people to vote and getting people out to vote can be more impactful. Honestly, the discussion on this forum is what one makes it. Nor is generalizations helpful either.

I don't think that's what this issue is really about. It's primarily about whether transsexuals should be protected against discrimination based on their sexual orientation in employment, housing, education, health care, etc. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-polit...n-civil-rights

A transgender co-worker that I know is extremely concerned about loosing her job.....However, she's already been hired for over a year and performing excellently - but I understand her concern 100%...

Re lack of discussion here, I think a big part of the problem is that Trump's outrages are so continual that is has a numbing effect over time. Many people think "what's the point of even discussing this?", especially when the Trump fans/apologists here are either unable or unwilling to engage in sensible and honest discussion.

This is the EXACT reason why I rarely post in the Political section anymore. On Twitter it’s a different situation.

Glad I’m not in that group, because people that actually know me know how I feel about this potential legislation.
