Have you even thought about what you are defending?As strange as it may seem, nudity isn't automatically sexual. Granted, in most contexts, it's rightly frowned upon for an adult to show the kid their genitalia, but in some contexts, it's expected to be nude. In a locker room, it's not uncommon to catch a glimpse of someone else's genitalia, and, while it's not polite to stare, it's not a problem as long as the other person in question isn't trying to get other people to look at their genitalia (unless, of course the other person is an adult and is okay with looking at it). And funny thing, you brought up an interaction at the YMCA where a girl was shocked at having to see a trans man's genitalia. Decades ago, it was not only allowed, but MANDATORY to swim nude there. And, surprisingly, that wasn't considered sexual.
Quote:Yes. And the possibility that someone might have had a different outward gender identity a couple of years ago is irrelevant to what locker room they should be using now. If they identify as male now but previously identified as female, it's okay to use a male locker room now.Quote:Detransitions are rare and their existence of them in a way invalidates Transpeople. This is a non-sequitur, And the fact at the present they present as trans is enough of a reason to respect their identity till they say otherwise or there is some reason to believe they are faking it.. So this is a weak complaint.
You misunderstanding the argument does not prove it’s a non-sequitur. The fact that detransitions are rare is a non-sequitur however. Is it possible for someone to believe they are trans and then no longer believe that later? Simple question.
Quote:Quote:Free Speech is always controlled and should always have limits like everything else. And Trans Men can most certainly have babies.
Citation required. Rules are rules. A woman can claim to be a man and have a baby, yes. Men cannot have babies. 2+2 does not equal 5 and Eurasia has not always been at war with East Asia.
