TWM is too big a coward to approach this topic with any kind of intellectual honesty.
I'm not sure what you mean by "cost"
Well it was your claim, you claimed that trans people living their lives based on their gender identity, rather than their biological sex came at a cost to others, one assumes you had some idea of what this cost was, and who incurs it, when you made the claim? Though of course it could simply be another piece of the vapid bigoted rhetoric that litter your contributions here.
Quote:of course there is always going to be a general "cost" when people suffer from mental disorders - but I don't think they differ from someone with schizophrenia, alcoholism, or alien hand syndrome;Gender dysphoria is not a mental disorder, and the mental health problems people with gender dysphoria may suffer from generally come from prejudice and bigotry, of the kind you have been espousing about them since you got here. This also doesn't remotely address your claim that trans people living their lives as themselves comes at a cost to others.
As I said before, why does this bother you at all, give me one cogent honest answer I can understand?
Quote:the "cost" of someone on society is determined by their actions, not by their sex or gender - or any other stereotype you want to try to fit them into.How does a trans person living their lives as themselves cost society anything?
Quote: I don't buy into your hyper-collectivism, hyper-ingroup bigotry and the simple truth is that this ideology has been carefully developed by simple minds with simple goals; their own benefit at the expense of everyone else.What ideology, what relevance does this latest disjointed rant have, to trans people at all?
Quote:The cost of "Christian bigotry and misogyny" is just the cost of bigotry and misogyny - and my dear, you sure love to float the idea of taking away the rights of others - how very fassy of you.
Leaving aside the vapid tautology , and your hilariously ironic use of a misogynistic epithet, who are you claiming has suggested taking away the rights of others, what rights are you claiming they want to take away? I suspect some unexpected family demands will "miraculously" prevent you from answering this honestly of course, but hey ho.
