True.
Slavery as it existed in the 1700s wasn't abolished because the rulers had an epiphany and realized the errors of their ways. It was (mostly, not entirely) abolished for practical reasons. Institutionalized slavery still exists. You have prison labor in countries like the US. We also see outsourced slavery to more degenerate countries like China, where they do have actual slaves or laborers who are slaves in every way but name. Have you ever heard of slave free cotton, or slave free cocoa? These words exist because slavery is not gone. Companies and us consumers around the world are indirectly benefiting from slave labor till this day. I have to look long and hard to find stuff that are more ethically produced, you should know that it's hard. We also see sex slavery, which intersects with the porn industry. Some of the women in porn could be trafficking victims. I wonder if liberals who goon to porn understand that.
Women working corporate jobs has brought a lot of economical advantages, no doubt. They pay taxes, they increase productivity, they saturate the job market, etc. But it came at the expense of the family unit, and birth-rates. You have a rising percentage of older people needing care, and a less percentage of younger people to care for and replace them. This is one reason why many western countries are inviting immigrants, to keep things sustainable. But for how long?
Women working is not a new phenomena. Child-rearing, taking care of the husband, taking care of the home, and doing everything a housewife does is a full-time job. It's an honorable job. You seem to have no issue with a woman being obedient to a boss in a corporation, and keeping a smile at all times lest she gets fired. But if it's her husband that she obeys, you suddenly get your panties in a twist.
It's so natural in fact, that we have an unprecedented number of "trans-youths". I wonder why. Maybe previous generations were just too scared to get out of the closet. Or maybe, it is because young boys and girls are being indoctrinated.
Go and tell that to Ukraine.
Because society has evolved to the point that more people can come out as trans without fearing violence from bigots like yourself.
There isn't suddenly more trans people. People who would be trans no matter what are just being open about it to a larger degree for the abovementioned reason
Bingo. Better stop there.
Nope, more bigotry. That's exactly what your fellow bigots say about gay people. Do you believe there's a sinister "gay agenda" where people are trying to turn kids gay too?
Tell the country Ukraine what? That Russian imperialist aggression is because trans people? WTF are you smoking??
Fixed it for you.
First link is a retracted study, the other is an article about gender dystrophy becoming a more common diagnosis as it's become easier to identify than before. At no point does the article support your bigoted hypothesis that it's all down to indoctrination.
Absolute nonsense.
Bullshit.
The only ones intruding are bigots trying to force their 1950s gender roles on their children, teachers, doctors, scientists and others who know better.
True. Most sane people would agree with me that disinformation-addled bigots are trying to hijack education, science including but not limited to medicine and politics to force their regressive ideology on everyone
Fixed that for you too.
A Ph.D. in political science doesn't make you a doctor
Aand there's the "gay people rape children" smear 🙄
BTW, if I was him, I wouldn't mention "pedophile" and "God" in the same sentence. What with the Catholic Church being the biggest child molester factory in the world and most other Christian, Muslim and Jewish denominations having more than their share of rapists too.
Wow. This guy is disgusting. This is what you show me to SUPPORT your argument??
As a pacifist, I am against Ukraine forcing anyone to kill and be killed against their will. It's an atrocious thing to do to anyone whether trans or cis and arguably a human rights violation, especially when they're forcing people to stay rather than affirm their right to seek asylum elsewhere.
Now please leave me alone and have the day you deserve.
Causing children to be confused about their sexual identity by indoctrinating them with queer theory is not merely "increasing visibility to destigmatize trans people".
If you look closely, the redacted part was personal information that participants in the study may or may not have consented to share. So it was redacted for their privacy. It's explained, one link away.
It shows how the number of minors receiving hormone therapy for gender dysphoria have been increasing between 2017-2021. An increase in gender dysphoria among the youth correlates with the push of queer theory in schools.
Fine, you can believe what you want.
I didn't say he was a medical doctor.
I didn't say that. I was speculating about what might motivate someone to push such ideologies. It's worth noting that John Money (who coined the term "gender role") and Alfred Kindsey were both pedophiles. So it's not completely out of question.
Citing from John Money's Wikipedia page:
I have no idea what's going on in these people's heads. Maybe it's money. Maybe the women who participate in this hate little boys. I don't know. But considering the outcome of this ideology, I'm certain that they are motivated by selfishness more so than helping kids.
"A God-sent" is another way of saying it "would make them very happy". Maybe said person doesn't believe in God at all.
Likewise.
