That Trans Thread

[Pat Mustard]

Oh dear, he dreaded tomboy label. I wonder—was the offense truly in the labeling, or in the retrospective interpretation of it?

After all, the term tomboy never denied biology; quite the opposite—it acknowledged a girl acting outside expected norms without claiming she wasn’t a girl. Contrast that with today’s curious fashion of insisting that certain behaviors must mean something about one’s identity, or even one’s sex.

Ironically, the very “rules” you found restrictive are now enforced with far greater zeal by ideologues who believe a preference for trucks over tiaras indicates an ontological mismatch. One might ask: is the modern view truly more liberating—or simply more dogmatic in different clothing?

Of course, I welcome your thoughts—assuming they haven’t been pre-approved by the Gender Compliance Committee.

It is clear you don't know what gender dysphoria means. 

FYI bigots howling about the inherent injustice of them having their imaginary "right to express that bigotry" being curtailed, just makes me laugh so hard it gives me an "ice cream headache". But then I lived through the same empty wailing when they were told they couldn't openly persecute people based on skin colour and ethnicity, or sex, or being gay, or...well you get the picture, the same risible objections are being raised this time, but decent societies moves on, and one less group is being persecuted.

This trans exclusionary* "crusade" is simply the homophobes trying to unperson non cis hets again by going through a different angle.

*This is their own name for themselves, they should not be allowed use the lying term "gender critical".
