OMG IT NEVER ENDS - TRANS AWARENESS WEEK INCOMING

Didn't this just happen some months back? How many "look at me I'm mentally unhinged" weeks are there?

I really love that they are blind to the irony of a pink/blue flag.

R1, NO!!!

Believe us whatever we tell you. Even if your eyes and ears tell you a different reality.

We create the reality.

And don't forget Trans Day Of Remembrance next Sunday the 20th November when we remember trans people all day

Ts really have nothing in common with sane lgb people. They should have their own category which I'm sure they'd love since they want all the attention for themselves.

Has anyone started a Day Without Trans Blackout?

I've been aware of trans people for years.

Since they're always lecturing us or protesting about something, how can we ever forget them?

I grew up with three of my best friends (none knew each other) being trans. It was "normal."

None transitioned or felt the need. One was devotedly "lesbian" and married to a woman. The other two lived as gay men, one wearing women's clothes at times. All three grew facial hair and two called themselves "bearded ladies." All wished for a different life but didn't consider surgical options to be worth the result for them. They strongly supported people who made that choice, but had few trans friends.

I'm aware.

R9 Women cannot be "gay men" such homophobic nonsense. The "gays" that support that can keep then. Less self loathing fags to deal with.

Every Day is Trans Day!!!!

Trans Rights are Human Rights!!!

Trans Men are MEN!!

Trans Women are WOMEN!!!

Non-Binary People are... uh, I don't know.

Was the video at R10 the inspiration for Nomadland?

Seeing all the junk she had in her trolley, there was no way that came to $44.

We're aware. BELIEVE ME, we're aware. We can't help but be.

When is fuck a trans week? Every "cis" person is required to have sex with a trans person during fuck a trans week.

Oooh. I ain’t leaving my house then.

We love the trans! We reward them just for being trans!

Wow, thanks R14. That old man recounting his life is quite touching.

Ok the Jesus thing at the end of the video is kind of weird though.

r18 r19

r5 Could not agree more! No animosity, but this is not my battle as a gay man. Completely different issue.

I hope the detransitioners continue to speak out.

They are now being called transphobes for detransitioning.

[quote]I hope the detransitioners continue to speak out.

Same here, R22.

Does anyone want to see my sexy strong chest and washboard abs again?

[quote]Ts really have nothing in common with sane lgb people

Here’s a good example.

I watched this the other night and it is very disturbing. It's about Desmond the Amazing, the little boy drag whatever.

The comments are full of some interesting info about the mother

[quote] His mother was obsessed with the 'Club Kids' aka Michael Alig and his gang that dressed in drag and crazy costumes and promoted clubs in NYC in the late 80s and 90s and were deeply entrenched in the drugs scene. She then later introduces Desmond to Michael Alig (who had murdered and hacked up his old dealer) and she seems to be trying to live that life vicariously through Desmond. It's very sad. Michael Alig died from a heroin overdose over Xmas 2020.

[quote] He met him in front of a painting of a child with "Rohypnol" written on it. And everyone seemed to think this was fine or didn't notice. . . That was one of Alig's paintings. He tried to become an artist after leaving prison. . . He did 17 years for that murder and just takes up where he leaves off

Commenting on how thin Desmond looks

[quote] it gets way way worse! Desmond has an older sister...and on a certain forum that starts with Kiwi and ends with farms is a twitter or facebook posts where she says her mother starved her as punishment. Desmond is most likely that emaciated because he is getting starved. It's absolutely horrifying that no one cares about that poor child.

A reminder for us all

[quote] I find this topic (child drag queens) really disturbing, Desmond in particular because of his connections with that New York club guy who's really into drugs, the one who killed someone by injecting them with anti-freeze (name escapes me at the moment), and anyway I've seen videos of Desmond with this man and Desmond looks konk'd out on drugs himself, and I just don't understand how any part could go along with letting Desmond be around people like that. Or let this little boy strip in a gay bar ...and kudos to all the men in the bar who cheered him on and through money at him, really helping with the whole 'gay men aren't predatory to children' thing, weren't they? I guess there's a reason why lesbians had to work so hard to keep NAMbLA and PIE out of the LGB back in the day, and it looks like TRAs will be making a move in the next year or two to really fight for "MAPs" (gotta love how they're always inventing new terms to try to sanitize pedophilia). Too bad lesbians have been summarily kicked out of the "gay rights" movement, who will save the men from themselves this time? Not us. Not me.

There's a new organization advocating for MAPs aka Ps under the guise of working with them to keep them from reoffending. But the idea is to de-stigmatize P by calling it MAP and accepting these people and supporting them as just another sexuality. It's called the Prostasia Foundation. I'll link to a video about it in another post - they have a channel on utube.

You know when I first became aware of how crazy the T was becoming I dismissed those warning about the Ps as just histrionics. The more I saw and the more I realized the same P.I.E. and NAMBLA people from decades ago were back and being looked to for expertise on the trans movement I realized they were right to be concerned.

I don't dismiss their concerns anymore.

Speaking of MAPs, R26…

R27, yep. Here is this cutie calling out this P enabler. I love Ruined Leon.

[quote]Ts really have nothing in common with sane lgb people. They should have their own category which I'm sure they'd love since they want all the attention for themselves.

The love the attention, yes. But they love our money even more.

[quote] Ok the Jesus thing at the end of the video is kind of weird though.

People look to what they know are feel comfortable with in seeking to navigate life. I have no more problem with those who turn to religion than I do with people who talk about "Mindful Living" or yoga or any other practically cult like quasi religious thinking to get them through.

I apologize for that unreadable first sentence in R30 post. I think I need another cup of coffee. Sowwy.

R31, I think that was sarcasm directed as Butler.

The replies are like "one" and that won't take long.

Do they call out the names of the women murdered by their partners or murdered because they are women - biological women?

That would be too time consuming, R34.

Did Mariah Carey drop Trans Awareness merch yet?

Is McDonald's doing a Trans Awareness Happy Meal tie-in?

(If so, what will the special toy be?)

Social contagion of narcissism.

R26, I've been watching TT Exulansic's videos. She's very smart and really breaks down what actually happens during 'sex-reassignment' surgery, some of the (very common) complications are the stuff of nightmares.

Heh I would argue that they're less attention whorey than some datalounge bigots...

They’re autistic. They don’t pick up on social cues and don’t feel like they relate to themselves or anyone else. This includes feeling that you’re in the wrong body. They’re also narcissistic and bring trans brings attention and people applauding them not to mention a sense of community. They also love being victims. It gets them what they psychologically crave.

Blacks have a whole month so it’s time everyone else grabs their moment. Or better yet no one does since who gives a toss if you’re tans straight white black just bloody live life and if you achieve something great then we can applaud you like fighting a war and living to tell about it.

[quote]TRANS AWARENESS WEEK

It has entered the theater world:

Suni Reid, a former Hamilton ensemble member and understudy for several principal roles, has filed a legal complaint against the show, saying their contract for the current Los Angeles engagement was rescinded during negotiations after they requested a gender-neutral dressing room. Reid, who identifies as a Black non-binary, transgender individual, says they were subject to discrimination and retaliation by the production and members of the company.

Reid was already slated to appear in the Los Angeles bow prior to the pandemic. Even as performances had started post-hiatus in August 2021, Reid remained on the payroll but did not physically join the company as a contract had not been finalized. Reid had requested an inclusive, gender-neutral dressing space (covered by California law) as part of the terms of their return, but, according to the complaint, the production’s response was to curtain off part of a gendered dressing room. Ultimately, a gender-neutral space was created after Rory O’Malley, who plays King George, offered up his private room.

Still, Reid’s contract was not renewed, with the production informing Reid’s counsel on September 18 that they did not intend to have them perform with any company of the musical. “The only explanation is that Mx. Reid was punished for making legally protected complaints and requests to the company,” the complaint reads. “Though the Company did what it needed in order to meet legal obligations and quell unrest among the cast, it would no longer tolerate or trust Mx. Reid as an employee who dared question the supposed ‘wokeness’ of the Company as a business.”

[quote]Do they call out the names of the women murdered by their partners or murdered because they are women - biological women?

Since she was elected in 2015, every year on International Women's Day, Jess Phillips reads out the names of women murdered over the previous year.

The names of the women are collated through the Counting Dead Women project, which has been accused of transphobia because the woman who runs it counts the deaths of females, and several years ago didn't include the name of one trans woman who was murdered in 2018.

This year's list was read shortly after the body of Sarah Everard had been found - she was abducted, raped, murdered and set on fire by a police officer who used his warrant card and police ID to "arrest" her after she was walking home during Covid restrictions.

R44, have I got a treat for you.

Thank you, R45.

How many biological women were on the "transphobic" list that didn't include the one trans woman? I bet it was WAY more than one.

[quote]How many biological women were on the "transphobic" list that didn't include the one trans woman? I bet it was WAY more than one.

It took over 5 minutes to read out all of the names.

How much more aware can we fucking be?!

The won't stop making us aware until they have beaten us all unconscious.

But that’s LITERAL VIOLENCE!

Why isn't it "LGBTQ Awareness Week"? Why are trans the only ones that get the dignity and respect of being referred to by their group's specific label? Why is awareness of trans being highlighted when we gay men get attacked more than them?

I counted 150 including the three unnamed daughters killed alongside their mothers.

They can have their own weeks, organizations, and events. We cannot, R53. If gay men arrange a gay male event, we are transphobic. They are free to exclude us, but we dare not exclude them - that's murder. Same goes for lesbians. If they try to hold an exclusively lesbian event - watch out.

They must be front and center in everything, and included in everything. Like the "trans-woman" in the birthing group mentioned above. This is a person that will never give birth, but they MUST be included, and deferred to at all times.

How are they funding this?

Siphoning off money earmarked for gay causes?

It was a tactic/strategy, R5.

I heard of a woman trying to go on a "lesbian" cruise, when she turned up it was all middle aged straight men autogyns/fetishists. Lesbian bars are down to something like 5 or 6 total in the US. For all the times I laughed at MichFest threads, I feel quite badly. T are a real threat to LGB rights, to women and to children.

Who is going to push back for the LGB community? Our co-opted organizations? A friend tells me that the senior staff at the NCLR skews T, are there really no FEMALE lesbian lawyers who might have served as legal director rather than a TiM. WTAF?!

Why do T have so much money and power? Where did all the tech behind sissy porn come from? Why are so many former military suddenly T? One wonders about all of it.

The link is interesting, so T get OUR pride month and another for themselves? Again, WTAF?

WTF at R27.

That shit is for real?

Honestly.

[quote] I feel quite badly.

Oh, dear!

Here's an article out of a 4th Wave Feminist site. I think the 4th wavers are like the 2d wavers. It was the 3d wavers who were insane.

I have to break it up - but see what this self-ID'd gay man tweeted about the Ps. I'll put in in quotes.

PART 1

Prostasia's Goal is to Normalize Pedophilia (4w.pub)

For many, charitable status is a legitimizing factor taken into consideration when choosing what organization or foundation to donate to. Government recognition that an entity’s work is valid enough to exempt them from taxes is often a good indicator of the work’s importance.

However, there are always exceptions.

California-based charity Prostasia is one such deviation to the rule, the organization having been given IRS tax exemption in 2018. While marketing itself as a children’s rights organization, Prostasia is a veritable grab-bag of causes surrounding sex and sexuality, but there is plenty of evidence to demonstrate that the real story is not so simple. In Prostasia’s blog entries, “child protection” routinely ends up in the same sentences as “free speech,” “kink,” or “sex positivity.” The topics of age play, furries, hentai, and prostitution are spoken about no differently as, and often with no barrier between, child sexuality and child sexual abuse.

It is here, in the not-so-hidden depths of Prostasia’s pet causes, where it begins to mutate into something far more malicious, deviating very heavily from its veneer of supporting child safeguarding. In fact, protecting children from exposure to sex abuse seems to not just be at the very bottom of Prostasia’s to-do list, it is almost antithetical to its entire existence.

Prostasia sees the threat pedophiles pose to children as a bogeyman dreamed up by the alt-right, while condemning anti-pedophile sentiment as harmful “Nazi-like” rhetoric which requires mass censorship across social media.

The organization’s efforts have dedicated themselves to crusades against child pornography bans, letter-writing campaigns to state representatives demanding child-likeness sex dolls be kept legal, and funding research into “fantasy sexual outlets” for pedophiles.

Once these threads quickly unravel, Prostasia’s goals and underlying purpose becomes increasingly clear. Despite its attempts to role play as a mere progressive activist organization, all of Prostasia’s goals and campaigns lead to the exact same conclusion: The total normalization and acceptance of pedophilia in wider society.

Prostasia hosts a forum in which members are invited to start conversations on anything they wish without stigmatization. In many cases, the subject returns to the “liberation” of MAPs – or, Minor Attracted People – a more socially acceptable way to refer to pedophiles. Most of the pro-pedophilia discussion happens in the forum’s dedicated Sex Positivity section.

Recently, Prostasia began collaborating with an organization it calls the MAP Support Club, an unregistered group which claims to provide “peer support” for pedophiles, and invites “minor attracted people” aged 13 years old and up to participate in online chats about “minor attraction.”

In an attempt to give itself legitimacy, Prostasia employs a wide variety of pseudo-scientific jargon and quack references which they utilize as justification for their positions. But in almost no cases do these assertions find themselves very widely shared amongst academics or experts which do not have a relationship with pro-pedophilia movements or statements.

Part 2

It repeatedly claims there is evidence to support that pedophilia is “comparable to a sexual orientation,” while citing Toronto psychiatrist Dr. James Cantor, who is infamous for his Tweets demanding the inclusion of pedophiles in the LGBT spectrum. Cantor is a member of the Prostasia team.

[quote]Dr. James Cantor @JamesCabtorPhD replying to @virpeds Speaking as a gay men, I believe we SHOULD include the P. To do otherwise is to betray the principles that give us our rights. 08 Dec 18

In another one of its campaigns, one focused on arguing against the necessity of the sex offender registry, it provided multiple articles written by another one of its then-staff, Guy Hamilton-Smith.

Hamilton-Smith, a lawyer in the state of Kentucky, wrote several times for the Prostasia blog that measures to keep registered sex offenders away from children, such as school-zone bans, were ineffective and unnecessary.

A quick search in the publicly available database of registered sex offenders found that Guy Hamilton-Smith was registered after being caught with child sexual exploitation material.

Most recently, writer Noah Berlatsky was taken in as a director at Prostasia. Berlatsky previously came under fire for writing an article published in New Republic under the title “Child Sex Worker’s Biggest Threat: The Police” in which he lamented the treatment of “children engaged in survival sex” by police officers. While fighting corruption within the justice system is certainly a valid issue, at no point did Berlatsky note the obvious fact that children cannot consent to sexual activity of any kind, instead spending his article suggesting that children forced into prostitution were willing participants in an oppressed, but legitimate, trade.

In 2017, Berlatsky tweeted “pedophiles are essentially a stigmatized group.”

It is not just in its narratives where Prostasia acts unlike any other charitable activist organization, but also in its behavior. Prostasia founder Jeremy Malcolm [Jeremy Mark Malcolm] has been known to directly and personally attack those who take any issue with his organization’s campaigns.

Family lawyer and feminist activist Sarah Phillimore was vocal in sharing her experience with Malcolm, who sent her threatening emails after she discovered that yet another member of their (now ex-) staff, Jeff White, was on the sex offender registry for criminal sexual conduct with a child under the age of 13.

This author was also subject to disturbing, erratic behavior from Malcolm after calling his organization into question in 2019. Malcolm insisted I was a racist neo-nazi sympathizer, and republished photos of me as a young child with abusive captions.

Ultimately, Prostasia is no normal 503c charity, and its attempts to gain legitimacy and forward their agenda into the mainstream should not just be rejected, but actively fought against. Any individuals associated with the organization in any way should have their motivations called into question, because there is simply too much information on the group’s activities and history available out there for any excuses of good-faith ignorance to be believable.

Protecting children from sexual abuse is an important and righteous cause. But, like the vast majority of us, I’m under the impression it can be done without coddling pedophiles and their sympathizers.

Facebook took down the video linked at R26.

TT says this: Youtube removed "Desmond is Emaciated" for "containing private information" specifically (based on the initial timestamp given) that Michael Alig died of a heroin overdose last year. I removed the info and they still took the whole video down, and I have submitted an appeal.

Someone else said that info was on Wikipedia. They really are fuckers. I am sure the TRAs have discovered TT and will start to attack and try to get her videos taken down or her account suspended or whatever.

She uploaded it to her Odysee account. Odysee loads too slow for me but I'm glad I watched it already.

"Prostasia" sounds like a drag metal band.

There was a transman who called herself "Vlad" in my former tech workplace who complained (he) she didnt have a unisex bathroom. She refused to use the men's washroom (or maybe couldnt because she couldnt use the urinals?), and also didnt want to use the single stalled women's washrooms even though they were individual bathrooms, because they were for women (there was a "W" on the door, thats it).

So after much huffing and puffing they made a separate bathroom for everybody!! Win Win, right? Well, the men in the office decided to turn that bathroom into what they affectionately called the "poop bathroom". Every day, people took turns taking rancid, vile, smelly dump after dump in the washroom-for-everybody.

Vlad took to facebook to complain and decided to put a sign on the back of the bathroom door to remind people that the washroom should be left clear "in case someone had mobility issues". Drafted a letter to HR regarding "accessibility". But everyone was really fed up. You cant get a bathroom and then dictate who gets to shit in it. I left after that so I dont know how it played out.

"Vlad" wanted a private bathroom all to herself, and nothing else would have satisfied her.

Even when she got that she wouldn't have been happy. The color would have been triggering, or something else would have been hostile to her fragile sense of self.

Vlad should have been given a private tent and a bucket in the parking lot.

Vlad sounds like an emotional vampire.

If she had a Tinder account that the gf discovered that could account for the T by itself and perhaps some of the rage.

I do hope they arrest the perp, this was beyond sick and depraved to carve up a human this way.

The "T" with the distant "FA" and the tattoo, plus the degree of "overkill" really do suggest it was someone who knew her.

I have only seen the gf seated, wonder how strong she is? Her very odd affect and the interview where she talks about herself and her own victimization at length, demanding the police clear her name is in Chris Watts territory. And when much of what her father claimed (male DNA, a sexual assault" was contradicted by the autopsy, one has to wonder...

I have this feeling this will be a cold case...hope not.

The Ts need to start their own groups. No more LGBT. We don’t want to cosign your insanity. You weren’t born into the wrong body. You just don’t like the one you’ve got. Fucking brats.

Trans...

YUCK!

Because they are narcissists and cluster B personality disordered. Nothing will ever be enough. No matter how much people coddle them they will still play the victim.

They are a bottomless pit of self-hatred.

And they want to take down everyone with them.

And they really hate gays and women.

We still don't care about this. Take it to a third-wave feminist site where it belongs.

No, R74. We DO care. We SHOULD have cared more 5-10 years ago when this nonsense started.

And please try to get your waves right.

R69 here, sorry wrong thread

R70, the entire strategy has been to hide behind OUR movement and exploit the goodwill WE had generated. So, never gonna happen. Plus, all of OUR orgs have been coopted. We cannot control other people. However it is long past time for LGB to walk away from the T.

No, r75, we really do not care about this shit and we never cared about this shit on the Datalounge. 20 years went by and we didn't have to listen to your daily bitching, whining and complaining about every goddamn thing under the sun. We're not going to throw out the Trans to placate the lesbians. We don't care how your tragically tender feelings are hurt by this. The answer is no.

If you're all big on "breaking off" some group, break yourselves off and go out on your own. The power and money in the LGBT community has always resided with Gays men, you girls are just riding on our coattails, as usual. We aren't going to be taken over, or ordered around by you awful people and your hysterical obsession with Trans.

GET A FUCKING HOBBY, CUNTS.

This is the T strategy as laid out by the global law firm, Dentons.

R78 just fell off the turnip truck.

[quote] If you're all big on "breaking off" some group, break yourselves off and go out on your own.

We did.

We were known as the Gay Community, or Gay & Lesbian Community and finally the LBG community.

R78 types like paid PR from Dentons or a subcontractor.

Tran bad.

r4 Trannies have ten awareness days/weeks/months dedicated exclusively to them! That's ridiculous not to mention the fact they hijacked pride month anyway so 10 plus the big one that should be mostly LGB focused.

I want to start:

Bring Your Trans Daughter To Work Day

[quote] You weren’t born into the wrong body. You just don’t like the one you’ve got. Fucking brats.

I wish more people would say this part out loud. You can’t always get what you want. Hell, I wish I was a little bit taller, but that’s life, kids.

[quote] We're not going to throw out the Trans to placate the lesbians.

Who’s “we”? You TRA loons don’t speak for the gay community.

I don't think it is a matter of being born into the wrong body, except for the very small number of people with actual body dysmorphia. I would guess 99.9 of the trans in the past 10 years are suffering from the intolerable truth that they are ordinary like everyone else. I would guess most are quite lonely, are usually ignored because of their ordinariness and boringness, and simply a fucking desperate for attention, even negative attention. This would account for all the fuss and anger over really trivial shit.

What would have to happen for trans people to feel welcome? If you can't even be comfortable in your own skin, how the hell can anyone else help?

I would be happy with left-facing crotch openings in my briefs, but I am easy to please.

[quote]What would have to happen for trans people to feel welcome?

The Trans Rights Activists want the concept of biological sex to be abolished and with it the concept of women's rights.

Biological sex isn't a "concept" it is reality.

Any person who requires lifelong medical assistance, protection from public debate, and such extraordinary levels of external validation that every single person who questions your identity must be punished in some way – by being No Platformed, unpersoned or sacked – is not free at all.

When your identity cannot survive without scaffolding constructed by others, there is a problem.
