My aunt suffered schizophrenia and my grandmother suffers dissociative identity disorder. I am happy knowing that they both were/are being treated accordingly with efficient medicine that can alleviate their suffering and ours. Why would I want any less for those suffering gender dysphoria?
Because it's more useful for the socialists to weaponize them to destabilize categories that people who are not mentally ill have no problem understanding.
While I don't disagree with anything you've said, in fact quite the opposite, you shouldn't be starting the answer with "because X" if you're not going to provide a counter-argument, but rather you're going to support my original statement. English isn't my native language but at first I was pretty confused on the way you answered. Hope you understand.
ya, I know, Grade 1 English, you don't start a sentence with because. And your English is fine, I could not tell you from a native speaker. English is often confusing, because English is defined by usage, not any rule book.
Pretty much all languages are. The Royal Spanish Academy is nothing but a joke. Whatever idiocy people are already using, they just make it a norm. AT LEAST they rejected (forthright) the whole "let's use X in words so they don't have genders anymore" bullshit.
Yeah, they confuse it, they think usage is what defines language, not that language is what defines usage. The reason we conjugate the verb "to be" in English in the way that we do is because our parents conjugated it that way, and their parents did. Sometimes you have vowel shifts, etc. by natural processes, but it is wholly unnatural to have an 'academy of language' that dictates usage to people. That's nothing but a dictatorship.
Keep in mind you don't have to worry about 2 provinces wanting independence by force and another 2 that lowkey want it as well, and all of them have their own language. It isn't a legal mandate to teach Spanish in all of Spain. Just think about that, let that sink in for a moment. New Yorkers speak weird but they speak American English nonetheless. It's just a different accent. Not the case in Spain tho. I think having a centralized academy that regulates the language can help in keeping traitors at bay. Then again, nationalism is hard to contain and, in it's own way, a respectable feeling.
IMO the whole "social construction" postmodern philsophy makes far too much of language. Ordinary people no matter the language know what "love", "light", "water", etc. mean even if they say "amore", "lux", "aqua." These words refer to the same things. It's a minority in any population that has an ideological dislike for common usage, but they tend to be the most organized, because the majority of people don't consciously organize around perverting language, waging war, etc.
Most people want to enjoy the sunshine, drink clean water and live, not sow death and destruction.
I have to agree to disagree. When Franco was in power Catalonian and Basque were prohibited, all of Spain assimilated to the Castilian culture, and there were not much issues with separatism. Then during the new democracy those languages not only became legal again, but also regional governments went out of their way to promote them. And now we have as much separatism as ever.
I think i agree with you, you can standardize an abnormal population by making them use a language, but IMO the ideal is to find the physiological factors in violent people and treat them as a medical problem---we all shouldn't have to learn the same language/things just as a way to treat a minority of deviants.
Fren,if you love someone, you are truthful with them. People cannot change their genders, gender is not "assigned" at birth, it is determined by physical inspection, the same as we would determine a table from a chair.
If I programmed a computer to play a WAV file that said "I am a toaster oven" out of its speakers, that would not make it a toaster oven. These trans people are all very socialyl isolated and this is a way of them acting out to get attention. IF you "use their pronouns" they think you "love them." They're deeply narcissistic and mentally ill.

That sounds good. Some of my dearest frens are transfrens, I can’t imagine why this isn’t an accepting place of them.

>Anorexic frens: "These people have body dysphoria but we cannot allow them to harm themselves to meet their unreal delusions, they need help"
>Transfrenders: "These people have body dysphoria, we should allow them to do whatever they want, it doesn't affect anyone else"
