"T"
^^ you dropped this
- Spivak 3y agoYeah, I mean think what you want about trans people but to say acceptance of different sexual orientations is because it's an immutable quality but that gender dysphoria, the well documented medical disorder that has resisted all forms of therapy based treatment and reconditioning -- that causes such constant distress that it drives sufferers to suicide isn't also based on the idea that it's an immutable quality is nuts. I can't fathom how people believe that subjective tinnitus exists and (at the extremes) causes a constant distress that drives people to suicide despite the fact that all evidence of its existence is self-reported by sufferers but then turn around at gender dysphoria and be like, "seems fake."
- LargeTomato 3y agoLGB describe sexual attraction. T describe gender identity. They likely stem from very different causes/genetics. This is not meant to dismiss anyone's identity or experience, just pointing out why gp would "drop the T".
- i8comments 3y agoIf it is meant to describe sexual attractions, and since he is cherrypicking letters he likes in what is actually an unified political movement, and to be facetious, shouldnt it include the most popular sexual attraction type?
- LargeTomato 3y agoThe article is literally about bisexual and same sex behavior. So in this case it would not make sense to include heterosexuality, even though that is the most common.

- taccicardia 3y agolinking a trans-critical article from substack of all places is not the argument you think it is lol
- fflooop 3y agoThe article makes a solid argument as to why the "T" is fundamentally different.
