We all knew it was coming... 'Trans-Age' is here

I've seen some posts on Twitter from profiles claiming to be 'Trans-Age' i.e they identify with a different age...

transage.carrd.co/#faq

''Transage is an umbrella term referring to those whose age identity does not align with their chronological age. It's a label that encompasses a wide range of experiences. It includes those who identify as older than their chronological age, those who identify as younger than their chronological age, and even those who are outside of the age-binary (such as agen't or xenoage individuals).''

Paedophiles identifying as children to abuse children.

There's that American paedophile, who wants to be allowed to pretend he's a six year old girl and to have sleepovers with little girls.

Dear god this gets worse.

What's baffling to me is the disbelief at this and the laughter.

Being trans GENDER is EXACTLY the same and just as ridiculous

.. age dysphoria...

Is anyone else surprised that 'Adele' just happens to be transgender as well as transage? Or is it just my cynical mind jumping to the conclusion that this movement is going to be driven by middle aged men who suddenly discover that inside they're really and truly a little girl? ( While in the real world their wife is looking after their real children)

Looking forward to Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson loudly proclaiming their support for this marginalized, oppressed and misunderstood minority.

A clip I'm very fond of, in which Jane Fae tells a Dutch man it's ridiculous that he is trying to ID as a younger man:

There is absolutely no good reason not to accept and validate "transage" if we do the same for people who want to identify as the opposite sex and claim their rights. The same for trans-race, trans-disabled, etc. None of them are underpinned by any evidence at all - if they were we could test for people who were somehow "really" not their actual sex/age/ethnicity etc., but a different one, and self-ID wouldn't be thing. It is all, by definition, made up. What's more, age and race are spectrums, which we're always being told sex is as some kind of gotcha. There is arguably more justification in being trans-age than trans-sex/gender, according to the trans lobby's own criteria.

I'm really hoping this stuff will help the hard of thinking to finally work it out, especially the ones in power, and get everything "trans" out of policy and law. It's simply erroneous belief and in some cases body modification.

VaddaABeetch · 03/01/2023 22:01

Aren’t most middle aged trans women also trans age?

Eddie Izzard at 62 often talks about ‘girl mode’
Dylan what’s his name has done so many days of girlhood & he’s late 20s.

That’s that Stefonknee isn’t it?

Yes. Links above. Also to Stefonknee's website, for which I advise a bit of caution.

If you're identifying as a younger age, at least you've at one time been that age.

Charlize43 · 03/01/2023 22:07

So if I tell employers I'm 21 will they give me a job? Because ageism at work sucks! Try getting an office job at 55 when the person interviewing you is 30.

SockGoddess · 03/01/2023 22:07

And yes much like gender, pretty much everyone is age non-conforming or doesn't identify as their age. I mean who does identify as their exact age - it wouldn't mean anything. Your age is just how many times you flew around the Sun along with attendant physical changes. People have been modifying their bodies to look younger (or try to) for decades or more and no one has called them transage or thought that this somehow meant they were "really" a different age. Maybe the likes of Joan Rivers and Pete Burns will now be appropriated by the "trans-age" movement and retrospectively transed Hmm

Honestly what a massive steaming pile of bolleaux it all is, like a PP the last few years have made me despair of the critical thinking skills of humanity.

Soubriquet · 03/01/2023 22:07

Yeah more fool anyone who is willing to take a literal adult man, and treat them like a small child/baby.

I will never change a shitty nappy from a 45 year old man who identifies as a baby.

An elderly person in a home?

Sure

A disabled person who needs help?

Sure

but I have my limits

I reckon saying she's transgender too is actually a clever rouse to get transgender people on side and avoid being taken down by them. I think Adele is more likely a gender sceptic (man or woman) who's mounting a campaign that will ultimately expose the craziness of saying your can change sex any more than your can change age.

Anonforthis234 · 03/01/2023 22:12

From one of the tweets :"The difference between #agedysphoria and #transage is that one describes a mental illness (age dysphoria), and one describes a person's identity (transage). Transage people are absolutely not trying to deny the reality that nearly all of us suffer from a mental illness."
At least they're recognising it as a mental illness and (as quoted by @sobriquet) need psychiatric help. I mean, it sounds like they know they're not a different age. If only the same logic was applied by transgender people, there wouldn't be such an issue around women's rights and child safeguarding.

WildIris · 03/01/2023 22:12

Can you transage both ways at the same time? Older, to get my pension early AND younger so I can go back to Reception and play with the play dough?

SockGoddess · 03/01/2023 22:13

I really hope and believe that there aren't many people out there (the Emma Watson/Billy Bragg/Jameela Jamil types) who will really and truly get on board with saying that adult men with child sex offence records really are e.g. 6-year-olds and must be allowed on children's hospital wards, in children's sports competitions, scout camp etc. Even though they've said they think exactly that should happen to women, surely they'd bridle at a free charter for paedophiles and it might help them to wake up? Or am I hopelessly naive?

Is trans-race going to be a thing? And trans-species? Maybe it’ll get sooo bloody bonkers the whole thing will just implode and we’ll go back to 2004. Hope so.
