Public Opinion on Transgender Persons

[Degenerate Heart of HetRio]

Genderqueer is not a "special" gender identity. It's just a gender identity like any other (man, woman, etc.). Heck, amongst non-binary gender identities, it's pretty much the most widely acknowledged in Sweden

OHOHOHOHOHOHO SWEDEN I'M SO FUNNY IMAGINATIVE AND CREATIVE LAND OF LIBERAL FEMINIST PC GONE MAD OHOHOHOHOHOHO

Get real

Not exactly. You see, humans are naturally clever, altruistic, and adaptive. However, capitalism has effectively squashed human nature through aggressive propaganda, military violence, and denial of the right to life. This leaves most humans under capitalism quite bereft. Abusive systems create traumatized societies, and traumatized societies that aren't allowed to heal tend to be hotbeds of irrationality.

Duuuude. What are you smoking?

I'm drinking orange juice. Vitamin C and all.

[Arcturus Novus]

Well, no gender is really special. Except guys. They get all sorts of special treatment.

sure then why do people open doors for me and pull chairs for me

Conservative Western societies educated it as the "polite and manly" thing to do. It was formerly impolite to perform otherwise.

I'm worried about you.

I'm worried about the future.

So am I, although it also worries me that mean-spirited mockery is the only thing you do in this thread. Throughout your participation, the vast majority of your posts have been pathetic attempts at humorous strawmen of what non-binary people feel or say. While everybody else is, at the very least, trying to keep this serious, even people who share your views, you are insulting and making fun of a vulnerable minority, because for some reason your mind can't process the idea of a human being being anything other than a man or a woman.

If your reaction to something you don't understand is to try to verbally humilliate it, then it seems to me that you have a serious problem.

Aren´t you all ?

That'd be silly

You´re right. Some of you are lesbians. Others are hermaphrodites. And then there´s the transgender, the cisgender, guys who call their best male friend "sis",the transcisgender, the transylvanians, people who got vaginas that look like penises and penises that look like boobs. There´s women with farmers´ hands, and manly women who ejaculate semen through their fingers if they focus hard enough.
You can´t get more diversity than that. I feel like David Attenborough on a BBC Wildlife show.

So that any assassin hiding behind the door would attack you instead of them.

You have seriously misunderstood capitalism. I know it's your angsty phase in life and all, but take your issues out on a topic you actually fathom, in the least.

Not really. Several other nations legally recognize non-binary people, not to mention all those where there is some degree of acknowledgement of them.

That was very cute of you, though.

Symbolic courtship.

You're still seen as a walking baby factory ready to be the evolutionary tool for ~naturally sexually predatory beings~ (or so they always seem to imply) to use you as a manner of advancing property and lineage, as for the last 10000 years.

And that's exactly why your society panics at the thought of you not marrying a guy.

Don't exaggerate to make a point. Fox News does the same thing and gets lampooned for it.

So being polite and manly is inherently anti-egalitarian, oppressive, misogynistic, and is in no way help at all?

Would you like to try saying that again? Perhaps with less of a presumptive tone? And less inherent wrongness?

Are you done trying to be NSG's foremost transphobic stand up comedian?

[Degenerate Heart of HetRio]

You are marginalizing your headmates

Can you please stop?

Transgenderness, otherkinness and multiple systems are societally related because of a subculture of a single side of the internet, but they are actually nothing alike, and I have serious transgender otherkin friends to know better.

Woah I thought you were cool for one of the more honest kinds of liberal (European sense).

Not necessarily. However, the image of masculinity and what it means to be a "real man (tm)" can be somewhat damaging to all genders, more or less.

And Australia.

And India. You know, the second most populous nation in the world.

Is that proof enough that non-binary genders exist for your standards?
