Okay, that's a scenario you've made.

Are you ready to do the scenario nomadd posted?

They have preconceived notions about unseen genitalia.

It's the same thing as what I said before. It's totally natural to assume that someone that looks like a woman has female sex parts, especially if every experience you've ever had with peoples genitalia who look like females have had female sex parts.

It doesn't matter anyway. Respectable people do not think about genitalia when talking to someone else, unless of course sexual attraction is involved.

It's not a scenario, it's literally every single interaction I've ever had in my life.

What was his?

Well, according to these numbers, there should be a 160. You are 16x under represented in the amount of Transgenders in your military. Why are your armed forces so bigoted?


Roughly 0.1% of UK is Transgeneder:

Total British Armed forces - 160,000

Will address NHS in separate post.

I don't know about the figures but bigotry has been all too real. LGBT wasn't even allowed in the armed forces before 2000

I also noticed you're second to last on "Healthy Lives". Why isn't your care leading to better outcomes?

I wouldn't presuppose appearance fallacies are not natural.
So why are you covering for nomadd's argument? It appears you know about respect and how that can lead to having no business minding transgender people or what they do?

I'm not pretending it's remotely perfect. It's not doing bad for some socialist thingy though, is it?

Notice the USA snuck into the top 11 by virtue of their only being 11 entrants

It's not a fallacy. It's based on my experience and observance and quiet self-reflection. Sorry I'm not as 'experienced' as you.

I don't know what his argument is. It's also not my obligation to comment on something someone in this forum says.

Apologizing? You don't know? Okay, uh, go on then.

A person says he feels like and is a worthless human being.

Is he worthless?

A person says he feels like and is a woman.

Is he a woman?

This isn't an observation which DoNot can argue and plead away. Using an objectifier like "thing" to group people dismissively is what a preconceived notion about transgender people looks like. Is what it is.
07-26-2017 , 10:01 PM
The left is trying to argue that gender is nothing more than a state of mind....irrelevant of reality.

I just did argue it away. Your claim of prejudice is nonsense.

Names....

Has anyone here actually argued they would not call someone by the name desired?

Far as I've seen, it's been more about which sex/gender they are. Or, in other words, sir or ma'am.

Would you rather me call you all idiots who think a man is a woman, just because a man says and feel so?
07-26-2017 , 10:16 PM
There are more then enough people out there who won't even give that courtesy. If you don't have an issue with that but do with sir and ma'am. Well that ****ed too.

requesting to be called a name that has feminine connotations is different than asking me to call a man a woman. One is a lie, the other is a name.
07-26-2017 , 10:37 PM
And both are easy to do and cause you no harm.
