If not, then this is not news at all, it’s only a person being harassed by a public mob for their choice and because of other people’s fears and imagination. If not, then this really is an example of a talking point and not an example of anyone at all using gender norms to get out of working. She said she did not transition because of retirement. You assumed Sergia is lying by posting the article as an example of the claim that people are transitioning gender just to mess with other people or avoid work. Do you know for a fact that Sergia is lying? What if she’s telling the truth?
Both articles posted here speculate about the possibility of others wanting to transition for retirement in the future. This hearsay claim you shared about men supposedly talking about it is also speculation. It hasn’t yet happened, right? Even if people are boasting they’re going to, that doesn’t mean they will. So doesn’t this discussion of a trend that hasn’t happened also exemplify the original comment that this is talk and not reality?
BTW why is the retirement age different for men & women in Argentina?
- ajot 4y agoThose are really goood points, I have to admit. I do still believe Sergia transitioned only for retiring early, but I can never be sure. > BTW why is the retirement age different for men & women in Argentina? When state/tax backed retirement plans became universal during the 40s, the argument was that, as women raise children and are housewives, they are doing extra-work and should retire earlier.
