Is this satire or genuinely his life?

Has anyone seen Josh Seiter's instagram account. It came up, and because I watched a video it's showed me a bunch more. Is he genuinely trans, or is it a piss take? I just watched the safe spaces video and can't imagine anyone believing this! Apologies in advance if it's a well known spoof account.

Good for him. He talks about it quite thoughtfully and intelligently too. It's a shame it has to be framed as a woke left/conservative right thing, as it's really not (I and most gender nonbelievers I know are lefties, feminists, gay etc). But it is true that most of the people who fell for it will be left-wingers who consider themselves socially progressive <sigh>

There's really no difference between how he was presenting when "trans"/fake trans, and how many apparently fully committed trans-identifying males look and talk. It's very hard to exaggerate the phenomenon for satirical purposes but he did good with his "phew I'm not gay" bit.

Yes it doesn't affect him like it does women, but he's still defending women by pointing out that it's easy for any male to fake this and be taken seriously. It's good for women for holes to be poked in the whole ridiculous edifice.

Yes I hate the artificial left / right divide.

I've yet to meet an intelligent critical thinker who accepts gender ideology. I've met intelligent people who are terrified of going against 'the herd' who hide behind Be Kind instead of confronting the consequences of being openly gender critical. I can't even hold much hostility for them because the consequences can be severe, especially for women.

The daily mail does sarcasm and deadpan reporting a lot.

Show quote history

Yes, it assiduously 'pronouned' Josh throughout. It was 'she' and 'her' at very opportunity -- very noticeable.

Have you seen the two most recent posts about being a lesbian and now not gay?

Just looked at the Daily Mail piece and it opens with:

Bachelorette star Josh Seiter, 37, opens up about the storm of hate she's battled since coming out as transgender - and reveals it's coming mainly from the left

Seiter, 37, is weathering a new storm after coming out as transgender
He says most criticism is coming from liberal and LGBTQ groups

It seems like excellent parody / satire and very well executed! Just walks the tightrope very well!

I'm so confused 😭

It has to be satire.

But does the Daily Mail do satire?!

Apparently some 'women' are more endowed and need space down there.

Pretty sure he’s a parody. He posted this…

Well, he's right about that...

If that's parody then how come we just had a court case involving a genderfluid daschund?

timenowplease · 17/09/2024 00:23

It's parody.

Although I said the same about Dylan at the beginning.

Fake how? Man says he's got trans gender identity, he's got trans gender identity.

The first rule of Gender Club is we DO talk about Gender Club.

The second first rule of Gender Club is, your gender is what you say it is.

The third second rule of Gender Club is that nobody gets to assume, assign or expect your gender.
