I'm technically agender anyway as I choose to not believe in gender woo.

If males can infiltrate feminism by saying they're women I'm infiltrating transgendersism by identifying as agender.

If I'm asked my gender identity why shouldn't I say this, it's technically true according to stonewall.

Quite like the idea of being a double agent of sorts....

You could be birdgender which would encompass gentu and gander?

I just want to say FemmeNatal how much I like your posts. No nonsense and straight to the point.

Thanks. Others may (and have) called it impolite, but I think it’s the right approach.

I feel quite insulted by posters such as the one here turning up without a coherent argument, the ability to honestly respond, or the intention to discuss things in good faith.

You're going to bring down the wrath of place upon you for that joke viques...

viques · 26/06/2022 15:45

Actually, scrub gander, I think I prefer penguins, so I am now gentu.

I saw some cute goslings in the park this morning. Can I identify as a gander?

Of course. Anyone can identify as anything. I myself am sungender cos I’m warm, bright and make things grow

@placewherewebelong why would you think that? I can do, say and think exactly as I please within the riles of the site. I know it really really annoys you but IDRGAF 😍

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:42

Birds of a feather.

Thank you, I take that as a compliment

PomegranateOfPersephone · 26/06/2022 15:41

Are you trying to get posters to say something which might break the talk guidelines and get a deletion? Or just looking for screenshots to share elsewhere and show how mean and bigoted we are?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:41

And I'm the disingenous one.

Correct!

Could you point out where I called anyone misognystic or rude - unless of course you are insulting me (something which is only allowed on MN if its towards someone who dares go to go against the powers that be and their transphobic views).

reading comprehension is not your strong point Is it sweetie. I was calling YOU misogynistic and rude.

Ah, my mistake. I thought as a poster who accused me of labelling and being rude and name calling that you wouldn't then do it yourself. Sweetie.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:39

What do you think drives the rest, then?

A variety of things.

I can think of 3 letters but I’d get banned.

"what do you have against mental illnesses"

And I'm the disingenous one.

GD is in the DSM-5 and connected to other mental illnesses, you're being obtuse there.

You are not genuinely interested, and I'm not that daft.

You still havent answered my question. If only a small number of trans people have GD, what are the rest motivated by?

If you say so, champ.

Oh, you think there’s evidence for it?

Brilliant, dualism hasn’t been in vogue for ages now, so this should be good.

What’s the evidence for an innate gender identity?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:38

Is it, though?

Yes.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:37

I'd be careful here, as what you appear to be implying is that every transgender person is mentally ill.

Gender dysphoria isn't classed as a mental illness, and what do you have against mental illnesses anyway?

Again, what else is there than gender dysphoria. I'm genuinely interested.

placewherewebelong · 26/06/2022 15:36

FemmeNatal · 26/06/2022 15:36

That’s what being trans is, champ, someone living “as” the opposite sex to ameliorate the symptoms of gender dysphoria.

This religious view you have of a sexed soul, it’s unevidenced.

If you say so, champ.

placewherewebelong · 26/06/2022 15:36

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/06/2022 15:35

why do you constantly bring up the rape and death treats, when its not the vast majority of people doing it?

I don't know what proportion it is, but it's quite a lot of them.

Is it, though?

FemmeNatal · 26/06/2022 15:36

placewherewebelong · 26/06/2022 15:33

Well aware thanks, but who is anyone to diagnose someone who is transgender with gender dysphoria?

Do you think I'm naive enough to not get the implication that anyone trans must have a disorder because in MN world gender is made up so therefore the rest of the world must follow suit?
