A drag queen is just a person in a costume putting on a performance.
I reject absolutely the notion that there is anything inherently unclean about drag queens that needs to be kept away from children.
Most of the time they're just doing standup comedy or lipsyncing to pop songs

I mean, if my endo kept me on just spiro for 2 years I'd be pissed too, but for different reasons.
It sounds like they made the right call keeping him off estrogen because it seems like he was noticeably unserious about his transition

Do you get to the cloud district often? No? That's because in your subconscious mind you believe it is impossible. But you can literally just walk up there right now.
@aniki0z
for trans girls who grew up in the era of "traps", there was sort of a "coming of age" point where we had to give up our associations with characters like Bridget in order to move forward.
To then learn that Bridget was on the same path as us, was mind blowing.

@SamanthaIPG
The "good ending" is supposedly the flawless ending you get when you're not defeated for any rounds during certain key stages.
Thing is, the flawless ending only seems to build upon the standard endings, for Bridget and for literally every other character
@0xCAFEBEEF
If we concede this notion, then the fascists just move their line of scrimmage forward and then it becomes unclean to be trans in public and hold any kind of job in any proximity to kids.
The US: *wages constant psychological warfare against its young citizens on all fronts*
Also the US: Huh, why are our young people so depressed? Must be their small modern comforts, perhaps we should eliminate those too...
communities throughout the US has installed devices that emit shrill sounds to stop teens from congregating in public, and adults still blame phones for why teens don't meet in physical spaces
@dcexaminer
Can we just normalize men having BREASTS and not being ashamed of their BREASTS if they're happy to have BREASTS
Like come on BREAST is not a gendered term

I am convinced there is a whole marketing theory for this, like people never pay attention to commercials so you have to create an abstract or intriguing narrative to make them ask "wait what is this a commercial for"

@ghostopal_
That's very true. You vote for being harsh on sex crimes, you end up getting somebody who thinks being trans in public should be a sex crime

When I say "have a good weekend" pls feel free to take that as "I hope your customers don't make your weekend shifts unbearable".
Or just keep it in your back pocket for your days off.

This holds true only as long as there aren't active efforts to suppress the distribution and preservation of older versions using copyright law.
Not saying that this is happening in this case, or will happen, but its something to be mindful of, if you do care about preservation
@RayyvanaTTV
you see, in ze last frame ze child is upset because he knows, due to some innate sense of ze gender, perhaps a gender identity, if you will, zat he is truly ze boy.
Clearly, zis proves zat transes are ze fake and gay.

We need to stop viewing management as superior to workers, just a different role with a different skill set. Then give the workers more senior titles and raises.

I feel like a lot of people never learned the simple childhood lesson "if you have thoughts about someone that would make them upset, you can just keep those thoughts to yourself"
@Undoomed
Yeah, I'm sure "I don't care" is a totally good faith representation of your beliefs and you definitely didn't spend like 5 years harassing trans kids on youtube
@aus_hater
The reward is socially enriching both yourself and your community by not creating stifling barriers around groups of people that alienate you from them.
The reward is not having to step on people's heads to keep yourself from drowning because now nobody has to drown

I misread as "rape by inception" and imagined a scenario where Leo Dicaprio and pre-transition Elliot Page take advantage of someone while in a drug induced shared dream

Kids make permanent life choices a lot without knowing it. The classes you take in high-school and how hard you work on them can have far reaching consequences...
Some people who oppose transitioning most loudly, also advocate for girls to get pregnant and get married at 16.
@TheAntifaTurtle
I kinda hate the double standard that he gets to use his disability as a shield to compare trans women to deformed video game creatures
it's actually normal for trans women to dress in uniforms and act like interwar-era dictators and demand the blood of twinks. trans women who don't do this are very distressed
@marwilliamson
The real problem isn't that workers will be wholesale disincentivized from working, its that many of those huge corporations rely on a discontented captive workforce that would suddenly find itself with new opportunities, and that scares them.

@aniki0z
Ah, so your reasoning is motivated by your desire to see Bridget as your personal fap material.
Interesting how you were fine with sexualizing a groomed child, but now that she's a grown adult who decided on her own identity it's somehow a big problem for you.
@KingsleyCortes
There have been 376 school shootings since Columbine with only 2 committed by confirmed trans people. 1 by a person who was questioning their gender. And a nightclub shooting by a Nazi who pretended to be transgender to get out of a conviction (he was unsuccessful)

The socialization of a person begins at a very young age.
Look at the toys/playsets that are given to boys vs those that are given to girls. It's not unusual for a young boy to be given trucks, a workshop with little plastic tools, and for girls to be given dolls and a kitchen
