having read all the comments,I admit im somewhat confused as,to the point of this thread,it was started by trans person and yet they take hardly any part in it, why ?, is it to just pop back later and post remarks that no one is about to defend there point ,if it was me id want to engage with people,and hopefully get them to consider my view,,also I wasn't impressed with the tone of first post,suggesting they are better than me education wise,although probably true,its not relevant to this,and I quote "Don't worry, I don't expect an answer. I suspect I lost you after the first syllable " so I didn't imagine this,,and if they aren't reading our posts how can you possibly give an opinion that we are all trans phones,,I defend my right to my own opinion,and its not right or wrong if you disagree with me,it seems to me a lot of minority groups believe I have to change my views ,,again why ?,,I don't know the percentage or numbers,but if the UK ,has 75 million people,and 1 million were trans,,I think ( not certain,im dumb) that means the trans would represent 0.75% of the population,,so I and others the 99.25%,,have to agree with trans opinion or we get told what terrible people we are,,,this makes no sense,,,have your view by all means ,but don't try to force them on me,,after all I've never told you that you should agree with me,,im sorry if I haven't expressed myself well or quickly,,but I feel strongly just because you make most noise it doesn't make you right, thanks everyone who read all of this ,ultimately we are the human race for it to continue,the 99.25% is needed to procreate,as we are meant to ,,without that we die out !!
