You're like the person who says, "I'm not racist, I have black friend...
Sure sure.....you're in a great position to judge. You wouldn't save my life by altering your speech. All you have to do is stay quiet....I'm not even trying to require you to say things you don't believe.
Nope.
Again it's a well established fact that women are more likely to attempt suicide but men succeed at suicide more often.
Telling me to worry about the women more than the men is bizarre. Do you understand the difference between attempted suicide and suicide?
It's the difference between alive and dead.
I'd say the group that actually ends up dead deserves our concern.
If I loved them, why not? You think I'm going to be grossed out by the shape of their genitals? Are you one of those people who thinks that "penis" and "vagina" are the only genders?
Have you seen their genitalia?
The disguise fails. We haven't been able to convincingly recreate those. But kudos, perhaps you are being honest. Recent surveys indicate you're in an extreme minority.
This is NOT a case of a person pretending to be trans in order to commit an assault.
Nope....that's an actual trans person committing assault, something you seemed adamant never happens.
Again, not a case of someone pretending to be trans in order to commit an assault. Also, the event happened in 2014.
I know....again, a trans person, and again victimizing others the restroom.
How did your 2015 study miss this one?
Funny, since you were complaining about me providing a source from 2015 saying it was too old. I guess too old is good enough for you if it tells you what you want to hear, huh?
If it shows that the quality of your study is poor... yeah.
How many more articles would you like?
This is not a person pretending to be trans in order to commit an assault.
Really? The guy who explains his presence in the women's restroom by asking "how do you know I'm not a woman?"
When you imagine a man pretending to be trans to assault women in the restroom....what do you imagine that looks like?
Because a man, who has made no attempt to look like a woman at all, and claims he is a woman after assaulting a woman is pretty much exactly what I'd expect it to look like. Maybe he really is a woman in your imagination but I'm a bit more practical.
Ah yes, I'm sure that's going to be an unbiased site!
You've been quoting advocacy sites this entire time. You don't have any room to complain about bias.
In any case, the study they linked to says the policy came around in 2017, which saw a DECLINE in cases from the previous year when the policy was not enforced.
I don't know what graph you were looking at but cases immediately increased the following month.
Yes, and I'm sure all trans people before 2015 used the bathroom that corresponded with their genitals or just didn't poop or pee at all.
I'm sure they had figured it out....in fact, if you're claiming that before we changed laws they were perfectly able to use the restroom.....why did we change the laws?
You just ignoring my posts now, are you? I gave you those stats in post 139.
No, you didn't.
I've answered this question. PEOPLE AREN'T SKITTLES.
People are skittles in this analogy....or rather a possibility of a false accusation from a person.
Care to provide evidence to support that me telling you that we should respect trans people makes you feel like offing yourself?
No it's not this specifically....
When you demonstrated you had never even heard of desistance rates....it's immediately obvious that you don't understand the problem. Yet here we are....multiple posts later....and despite not knowing the one number you'd absolutely need to even claim there's a problem....you still seem to believe you have some idea what you're talking about.
Lots of people think about suicide....I'm sympathetic.
Many people attempt suicide and survive and I think they need help.
The reason people are being told that these medical interventions are necessary is because their child will almost certainly become suicidal and kill themselves.
To know if this is true....we need to know how many trans youth commit suicide....and succeed. The suicide rate is only measured in dead bodies....not sad thoughts, not attempts because those can often be attempts to get attention or help....not genuine suicide.
You don't know the number you absolutely need to know. I'm being extremely generous here....because in reality, trans youth will commit suicide for multiple reasons....maybe because they didn't get treatment....maybe because their parents got divorced. I'm not going to split hairs though....I just want the number.
