For all those who are happy with TW in single-sex spaces if they have “had the op”

I don't believe the photos are actually of JY's body. Surely someone of JY's BMI would have been denied elective surgery due to the health risks? I think they are stolen photos and JY is a pathological liar and narcissist.

From the urban dictionary:

truscum

A queer individual that holds the belief that you require gender dysphoria to identify as transgender.

The beliefs of some truscums can be a bit extreme, though most aren't. The one thing all truscums have in common is that they believe you must experience some form of gender dysphoria (no matter what form of dysphoria, as long as it is existent) to be able to identify as transgender.

I'm proud to say I'm blocked from @tustednerd

Does anyone know for a fact those photos are really of that person?
Surely the gatekeepers would be assessing and screening surgery applicants and only allow this surgery for the most sane and emotionally stable people.
This is very odd.

I doubt it. JY is a one off. Not representative of the normal true trans.

This is simply no true. Yaniv's beliefs, words and actions are very typical of transgenderists.

There are threads here dedicated to their postings on the broader internet.

Transgenderists should not be confused with transsexuals who understand they do not want to be attacked for their presentation but who understand the need for sex segregated spheres.

There is a reason why transgenderists call transsexuals scum.

I doubt it. JY is a one off. Not representative of the normal true trans.
I'm not sure about that at all. JY is an outlier because JY is either too psychotic or too spectacularly dim (or both) to realise that JY is doing enormous damage to JY's cause.
However, as soon as you spend any amount of time on Twitter attempting to discuss the issue, it becomes clear that JY's motivations are horrifyingly common.

JY is an attention-seeker with an enabling mother. How JY has evaded the Canadian equivalent of being sectioned is a mystery to me. If a person behaving as JY does can convince a surgeon of having capacity to understand and consent to major and irreversible elective surgery of that nature, the medical profession has a huge problem.

Adhominem, changes to the body will affect hormone driven urges. However lots of sex crimes are not hormonally driven. They are more about power, dominance and abuse than hormones.

I take your point about female only means female only, but I am still very suprised that having full bottom surgery and being androgen deprived does not, ahem..quieten down, some urges and behaviours such as JY's. I thought that puberty blockers used to be used (entirely unethically) to eliminate sexual drive in gay men (Like with Alan Turing) and surgery has definately been used historically for social functions (courtiers to royal women etc). I don't know what to make of that.

Amen to that, Barracker. I'd like to see a huge investment in mental health services and counselling, with an emphasis on recruiting level-headed people who are empathetic, capable of very clear communication in plain English and extremely good at critical thinking to work in said services. They would spend a good long time with the deeply confused children, teens and adults with gender issues untangling their ideas about what it means to be a man or a woman, exploring the harmful effects of gender stereotyping, discussing upbringing etc etc, all with a view to bringing the confused people to a realisation that you can be anything you like in personality terms, but you are stuck with your biological sex for the whole of your life, just as you are with your adult height or your eye colour. Cosmetic surgery is superficial. Hormone treatment is not 100% safe.

Pipe dream, of course.

I saw the photos by accident and it’s horrifying. Horrifying because it’s a genuine “look at my new vag” narcissist firework display.

Not enough brain bleach in existence to wipe it from my head.

JY is a one off. Not representative of the normal true trans.

Simply not true. There are MANY.
One of the very first truest of true trans recognised with an early GRC shortly after the GRA became law, was the case of the convicted murderer and rapist "Karen Jones". Not to be confused with "Karen White". Another male rapist in women's prison.

Jones killed a man, was imprisoned, released, and almost immediately attempted to rape a woman to get put back inside. Whilst inside, he was awarded a GRC. Not content with his GRC, he demanded to be relocated to the women's prison in order to be considered to be "living as a woman" to get his operation. (He'd already been considered to have 'lived in role as a woman for two years' to get his GRC. But he argued he had to do it in a woman's prison to get his operation) The secretary of state denied him the transfer, so he took them to appeal and won the right to be housed with women under the guise of "I have to, in order to get my operation, even though I'm a murderer, a rapist, and already have a GRC"

Its immaterial whether a man amputates his genitalia, or does not. Whether he has a GRC, or does not. Whether he is a known rapist, or is not. Whether he takes hormones, or does not. Whether he's dangerous, or is not.

There exists no magic portal for any men to become women. There is no "true" trait that overcomes this reality for any man. All men are men. Forever. There's nothing "true" in any man that renders him an honorary woman, no matter who he is, what he feels or what he does.

We perpetuate a dangerous myth when we hold up 'becoming female' as if it was a prize for men who perform, or threaten, or have drastic procedures, or gain ridiculous certificates.

It's way past time we stopped offering up women as sacrificial lambs for men who demand we not treat them like other men.

Ah, the 'true trans' - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman

Absolutely agree with the way it is at the moment.
I was originally one of the "only post op" supporters but the only trans I was aware of were old school dysphoric transexuals (usually gay) who simply wanted to fit in quietly.

The recent massive push on surgeries has led to the exhibitionist variant such as JY who constantly crave the attention.

How can you possibly know when no one even knows how many trans people there are and how many have had “the op”?

Serious question.

I have never, ever encountered anyone like JY and I think I probably have more chance of being struck by lightning. "The op" does not cause personallity disorders.

This is the dilemma that will arise if you go down the ”but true trans are OK” route of gate-keeping women’s spaces.

I doubt it. JY is a one off. Not representative of the normal true trans.

Or maybe, ask one of the firefighters...
