Transgenderism is to many conservatives, the hill worth dying on. Which I think is fair, but there have already been many hills to die on which conservatives did not die on in the past. Our entire civil rights regime is essentially the buildup of 50 years of compromises most people never wanted to make, which were made, and after being made people convinced themselves that it was normal that they have been made. Most Americans don’t actually really know what they believed 10 years ago, let alone 40 or 50 years ago. This has helped contribute to the idea that World War II was a moral crusade, even though statistics from the time suggest otherwise. World War II vets in the 2000s believed in civil rights at that point, so falsely imagine that they believed in it back then as well. There was no particular point of revelation, it all came very gradually.
Likewise, people don’t seem to remember how opposed to homosexuality this country was just 10 years ago. California shot down gay marriage in 2008. California! I mean, we all know about statements on homosexuality by democratic politicians as well back in the 2000s. Even liberal candidates had to oppose it. Today, being against gay marriage is considered extremist. Do you know why? Because the supreme court made sure that nobody could do a thing about gay marriages — not even discriminate against them in the private sector. And when Americans felt they could no longer do anything about it, they gave up. They abandoned the issue, went back to watching the Cowboy’s game, and fired up the grill. This is what happened with the Civil Rights movement as well. 96% of Americans viewed miscegenation as wrong in 1959. It wasn’t until the 90s that over half of Americans approved of it. But old people who almost certainly were against miscegenation don’t even realize they were. That’s not the sort of thing they think about from that time period.
Anyways, enough jibber jabber. Let me get onto the actual moral crusade at hand, which is Transgenders. And, I think we need to break down why Transgenderism actually is a sort of insanity before this. In fact, the idea of “gender” entirely is a phantom. It is a completely inconsistent sociological amalgamation meant only as a shoehorn against traditional *sex* roles.
Generally, they do this by dishonestly conflating sex-identity (man, woman) with sexual attitudes (masculine feminine) when looking at historical societies. Probably the most famous example of this is The Native-American Two-Spirit designation. This generally involves taking words which literally mean something along the lines of “Man who dresses like a woman” or “Woman who acts like a man” and somehow associating them with modern people who strongly insist they are not, and have never been the gender associated with their sex. This is something I also see with Transgenders trying to bring up the Kama Sutra. If you are literally referring to the people in question as “men who do not act like men”, you are already affirming that they are, in fact, men. And that the concept of “men” in these societies was bound to sex, and not gender. Most of these societies never actually considered these people to be transgender in the way we consider transgender people today, and in many cases the effeminacy or masculinity displayed served some sort of ritual purpose not surjective to secular gender identity. In many more cases, these were derogatory terms which were meant to make fun of the people in question. For example, bringing up pejorative terms like “Ergi” (an insult meaning effeminate from Norse cultures) or bringing up outcastes and people considered negatively for their behavior in their societal contexts (ex: Hijras of India, Roman Emperor Elagabalus) is not helping their case. Nobody is denying that gender dysphoriacs existed throughout history. The question is to what degree societies considered the concept of “gender” over the concept we today call “sex”.
Another famous example of this which is somewhat connected to the Amerindian examples, is the repeated concept of Scythian “Enaree” priests. I say it’s related, because it is probably something the Scythians inherited from Siberian shamanic traditions, despite Herodotus in his Histories suggesting the Scythians themselves viewed it as punishment for sacking the temple of Astarte in the near east (by the way, we believe Herodotus all the time! I’m serious, he’s gotten some crazy things right!)
Anyways, the Enaree were essentially eunuch priests who sometimes dressed like women among the Scythians. But, this was not related to their personal inclinations or gender identity. It was considered a curse among the Scythians, and was brought on by the observation that a man was infertile (a potential result of too much horsemanship basically beating up the balls, according to Hippocrates). The reason Scythians had a sort of reverence for these priests (I don’t know if I would call it a respect) is because they feared that they too would be cursed with infertility and unvirility if they were to make fun of them (also according to Hippocrates in On Airs, Waters, Places.
Another popular example is the Galli from Phrygia, but the actual social acceptance of this group is somewhat dubious. They were seen as foreign freaks by the Romans, but even in their own context they did not castrate themselves out of any sort of gender dysphoria. The castration of the Galli is a microcosm of Attis’s self-castration and subsequent death. Real longhoused stuff (especially considering Cybele may *actually* be a manifestation of the “Neolithic mother goddess”) but not Troony. Either way, ritual effeminacy is something sort of degenerate but it is not comparable to transgender ideology since the people involved were not outwardly ever considered women.
Okay, but enough about the nonexistent historical concept of Gender. Let’s talk about Transgenders today, and why it is just utter silliness.
First of all, just talking to Trans activists, they always cave in at some point and change the argument from “Trans women are women” to “Transgender people would be happier if we lied to them”, which I’ll get to. But first, Troons obviously aren’t women. And Pooners obviously aren’t men. Gender is, in its own ideological context, not physical, and yet Transgenders very clearly make every attempt to appear as the opposite biological sex. They get bolt-on tits, they turn their penis inside out, or they cut flesh off their arm and mold it into a fake penis. They try and speak in a high-pitched voice to sound like a woman. The men take estrogen and the women take testosterone. The claim that this is simply something provisional to fit in with gender-associations is obviously complete and utter bullshit when these people are killing themselves because they don’t sound or look enough like the opposite biological sex. This is the great issue with gender. Trannies claim that it is disconnected from biological sex, allowing for their transition to be legitimized, but then use biological aspects both to legitimize their status as transgender (ex: “We have female brains in male bodies”) and focus primarily on their passing as a biological women. I’ve seen in myself. These transgenders don’t dress like women anyways, they dress like anime girls or some shit (I will get into that). Hell, I’ve even heard pooners getting “gender euphoria” over experiencing male pattern balding from their drug cocktails. Like, what the fuck! This is obviously not something that real men think when they’re fucking going bald!
At this point, some Transgenders will insist that Gender is “mental” rather than ideological, and so their being womanly is actually because they have women’s brains in men’s bodies (or the vice versa). They’ll show you scientific studies proving that Transgenders have more feminine brains. Buuut, look a little deeper and you’ll find that Transgender brains are largely typical of their sex once you adjust for sexual orientation. The only exception of this is one region of the brain, the Inferior Fronto-occipital Fasciculus (IFoF), which is related to mind-body perception. So, Transgenders are not men in women’s bodies, or women in men’s bodies, but rather they are men in men’s bodies who have some sort of mental illness which results in them perceiving themselves as something else. Whether this is even something genetic or if it is brought on by life conditions, I’m not sure. I’m not a neuroscientist, so I can’t really comment on that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the environment we are raising our children in where they live their lives as online avatars influences their mind-body perception. It probably isn’t a coincidence that so many trannies are Furries, and vice versa.
Transgenders in general are obviously mentally troubled people aside from being Transgender. The connection between Autism and Transgenderism is pretty well-attested, but did you know that Transgender children were actually more likely to have been bullies as children? They are also more likely to have been bullied, and on a side note, molested as children. But they’re actually more disproportionately likely to have been bullies than to have been bullied. It’s possible Transgenderism has something to do with low-testosterone womb environment, but this doesn’t really line up with the Autism connection, which is associated with high-testosterone womb environment.
And you know, as a gamer, I deal with a lot of these Autistic Transbian types. They’re substantially less feminine than most gay men. Gay men actually sort of act like women which is why women hang out with them. These Autistic Transbians don’t act like this, they essentially are nerdy men who want to be anime girls. They don’t dress like normal women, they dress like anime girls. They like things that almost only men like. I’ve been to a few Super Smash Bros. Tournaments for irrelevant reasons and there are usually no real women, but one or two Transgenders. It’s really sad stuff. Do you guys remember Brawl Taunts? I was rewatching it a few days ago. You don’t see this sort of humor anymore because all of the gaming communities have been infiltrated by these insane AUTISTIC TRANSBIANS! This is the big issue with Troons. Okay, I get it, maybe in your hobby they are not prevalent, but they’re taking over all of MY hobbies! I talked about this in my post on the Geek-Nerd war, but I am an indigenous nerd being genocided by the Geeks, with Tranny collaborators! Please, buy me alcohol and casinos.
Now, on the topic of “but it makes them not go ACK! so we should support it”. I’m not really sure if this is true in the long run. I’ve seen some good Sean Last debates on the topic, and he also makes some good points about Homosexuality and why Homosexuals are also likely not brought to higher rates of suicide by societal treatment, and I think a lot of these arguments can also be applied to Transgenders. A lot of transgenders also seem to acknowledge that gender dysphoria is actually just extremely awful even if you are supported. But at the end of the day, I genuinely don’t care. If you are going to put a gun to your own head and demand I spew lies and contradictions, and support your odious-to-the-gods behavior, lest you blow your own head off as some sort of hostage situation, then I don’t care what you have to say. You’re a bad human being, and it isn’t my responsibility or anyone else’s to lie to you. This is an inauthentic form of living, but it pervades our modern society far beyond Transgenderism.
For example, I’ve talked earlier about an increasing push to vitalize old people as being able to live young people lives. All the time now you see TV where old people are partying and having flings like young people with other old people. Old people control our society but can’t accept that they are old, and that death will come for all men one day! Old people want society to be oriented around them so that they can live their fantasy retirement life. You see this with fat people too. Fat and ugly people on TV portrayed living these vibrant lives where fat men have sex with beautiful women and fat women have sex with beautiful men, and where attractive men stalk uggos and mids like Elizabeth Moss. I have once been socially crucified for suggesting that Zendaya is mid, even though she obviously is. When I pointed out that she had sort of a mannish face they replied with meaningless platitudes like “she has nice eyes” (what?) and “nice skin” and “symmetrical face”. What type of mind virus do people have with Zendaya? I was obviously called a racist for it. But I’m not even saying that because I’m racist, I’ve seen sexier Mulattas by a long run.
Women live entirely in this world of “feelings over facts” as Ben Shapiro puts it. I know, it’s goofy, but Ben Shapiro is kind of right on this “Facts don’t care about your feelings” business. And be careful not to confuse feeling with aesthetics or persuasions. If you feel intuitively that something is correct, like the beauty of a painting, and can at least put up reasons as to why this is (as opposed to rationally “proving” it, which frankly is not usually complete outside of mathematics) that is entirely different from believing something self-defeating because it makes you feel happy, and honestly telling yourself this. The worst example of this is women being utterly obsessed with makeup. Look, I get it. Makeup makes you look more attractive. But, women actually like it, because they think putting paint on their face makes them more pretty. Like how the transvestite hides from xir reflection, so too does the clean-faced woman! You see this in Miss Universe shit as well. Women just cake themselves inmakeup and wear a fancy dress, and now it is not even serious. They just pick black people and fatties and sometimes even troons. Yes, even though pretty much every ancient culture viewed European features as beautiful and African features as ugly on women, we are forced to all pretend otherwise. Meanwhile, at Mr. Universe, it is a bodybuilding competition. Whoever has the most insane Physique wins. The only makeup that is worn is tanning lather to further express their muscles under the lights. Yes, men unnaturally modify their body to do this, but they are actually displaying their body. A roided up body, but their body. Makeup is not your body just like plastic bolt-ons (be it on a real woman or a transgender) are not your real tits! They’re plastic! Obviously the universal female use of makeup has wrecked the sexual market because women can go on every date a good 2 decile points above what they really are. I think some makeup can be passed off as stylistic like eyeliner, but when it seeks to modify the face and skin it is clearly manipulative.
Anyways, the internet is not helping this trend at all, and the rise in virtual reality will make it worse. People will have less reason to associate with their real body in their formative years and perhaps even begin to hate it. This is part of why I think the next woke push will probably be something like Furries, as I’ve discussed before.
So, yeah, I think transgender acceptance actually is like a really shitty humiliation ritual, but if we solve it we are still neck-deep in shit. Obviously the most important issue is always gonna be the preservation of the body-politic, which means demographics. A society can always recover from degeneracy. It cannot recover from racial dissolution.
Addendum: I forgot to mention the most popular Trans argument of “passing”. Which is utterly ridiculous and only goes to show the sort of superficial lie-heavy society we’re developing. Legitimately so many people have tried to claim trans women are women to me by pulling up some very passing transgender who either won their own twisted sort of genetic lottery, or has gotten thousands of dollars worth of hormones and surgery. It’s very easy to show how ridiculous this is by pointing out literally anything else which passes as something.
Let’s say I have a giant mecha robot suit. If I go around town, people will think it’s a robot, but actually it’s me in a suit. I am not a robot. Just like getting bolt-ons or other surgeries does not actually make you that thing.
Likewise, for HRT, let’s say I inject myself with a serum which will make me grow feathers and wings. That doesn’t make me a bird, it just makes me a mutated freak. Plus, HRT is a witch doctor’s treatment. Best it’ll do is give you a mean case of gyno. It can’t change bone structure in adults. Your bones have already fused together. You might as well be trying to take HGH to grow taller. On top of all this, HRT has to be taken for your entire life. If you stop taking it, most of its effects will disappear. And I highly doubt that it’s healthy for a biological man to wreak such havoc to his endocrine system, or vice versa.
I didn’t really think you were that serious until you stopped the jibber jabber. It got a little real at that point
I have this working theory that most transgenders, at least the ones I interact with, are just men willing to be gay for attention. I, like you big S, am a gamer. If you make a quick observation you can see that the groups with the most troons are the ones that are predominantly male hobbies. Its pretty logical to think that people want to find a significant other with whom they share common interest and alot of gamers find this particularly frustrating. Female gamers are extremely rare and most of the time not very suitable mates, either physically being unattractive or just being attention whores. this sexually frustrate the soon to be troon but that is not the biggest impact it has on them. The soon to be troon realizes to themselves that if they themselves were a female in this niche, male environment they could receive an insane amount of attention and sort of "importance" or "rarity". This is the point in which they begin to morph into the actual troon, they believe they can become this highly desired thing that they themselves want. When people talk about the "vidya to troon pipeline", the "anime to troon pipeline" or the "comp sci major to troon pipeline" i think to myself "well yea obviously" because those are all male dominant fields. (as a side note here anime encourages troonism through other means than just being male dominant)
