Assuming you meant opinion... Trying to change the opinion of anyone is usually pointless.

What's next, are pedophiles going to start doing that, too?

YOU DON'T LIKE PEOPLE WHO RAPE LITTLE CHILDREN?! YOU ARE A BIGOT! I HAVE LOST ALL RESPECT FOR YOU!
Pedophile are child rapist are two separate things, and neither is comparable to transgenderism or transsexualism.

Doyle is a bigot. However, there's nothing wrong with being one.

What the **** are you even saying? Pedophilia is illegal and it directly hurts other people, whereas being transgender doesn't, and is perfectly legal.

Please explain how they are different in the context of that definition.

People who don't like terrorists are bigots!

You didn't agree with my post, you are a bigot!

Ok so we can only call people bigots if they hate on something legal and that doesn't hurt anyone? I disagree with your definition if bigotry, but I'll go with it:

I'm a huge Justin Bieber fan. Lots of people hate on Justin Bieber and me because I like him. They are all bigots!

The second link is worthless. It doesn't even say there is anything wrong or incorrect about doing it, it merely describes the act of making an analogy.

The first link doesn't apply here. There is an equivalence. Just like there is between the other examples I've given: terrorism, disagreeing with somebodies post and being a Justin Bieber fan.

They all represent somebodies views being disagreed with by somebody else, and the person doing the disagreeing being called a bigot.

There is great variance in how extreme those views are but that doesn't matter. Now you're just nit-picking over taste. 100 years ago there would be nothing extreme about having strong views against black people. Now that's against the rules. Twenty years ago there was nothing wrong with having views against gays, today you can't do that. And now evidently we've reached the point where you aren't allowed to think bad thoughts about transvestites. Or else you get called a bigot.

And my question was, what next? Pedophiles? Terrorists? People who disagree with your posts? People who hate on Justin Bieber and his fans? Are they all bigots too? Or only people who disagree with your views?

Unclear whether you mean Doyle's or Kardashian's, imo.

People who are intolerant of views that they find intolerant?

Transvestites are not being discussed here.

actually hitler would have loved conservatives from the bible belt, because these are easy to control. ahh, and btw did you know, that in the concentration camps homosexuals and other 'perverts' died too?

find and blame a scapegoat ... be afraid from everyone, who is different. and of course, your own lifestyle is the only way. check the hysteria about the 'muslim thread' in the USA and you see, it's still working.


imo, doyle is an idiot ... there are people out there, who don't feel comfortable with their "gender". that's nothing new, the only new thing is, that we somehow can talk openly about it. there are also Intersexuals, which is a "natural" thing. not every one is a man or a woman. not every man, loves women, and not every woman loves men. all this things, maybe uncomfortable for some people, but disrespecting someone, based on their sexuality is just stupid.


anyways ... SrslySirius nailed it with his 1st post itt
Sex in determined by genetics. Chromosomes. DNA. Biology. There are some folks who have sexual mutations but this is rare. If you want to pretend you are another sex, more power to you, but don't force me to pretend along with you.

Sex=/=gender.

By 'not pretending along with you' does that mean you wont call a transwoman "she" or something?

Good questions

If you were female and a male wanted to use your bathroom at work, would this be a problem?

Would it be less a problem if the male wore a dress to work and took hormones to give him breasts?

If you were a writer for Grantland, is it OK to be blacklisted because you factually reported that a person who pretended to invent a new putter also pretended to be born the opposite sex?

This happens in my workplace and given I live and work in one of the most backward backwater **** holes on the face of the earth, the fact that no one even talks about it, is pretty epic.

Fair enough, I have been retired for a few years now.

I called him ignorant because he is talking about an issue that has evolved with new definitions and language but he refuses to learn them so hence ignorant. He can have any opinion he wants as long as he is aware he doesnt even know the terms or what he is talking about. What do you call that?
02-03-2015 , 11:50 AM
I can understand that this is a very confusing and unsettling topic for many people. But to publicly recoil in disgust about something you haven't bother to educate yourself on is ignorant. Be uncomfortable not judgmental.

The only normal person in the Kardashian family is Rob. The rest of them are a bunch of attention whores.
