  • They have high suicide rate bc of people that makes their life fucking impossible. That insults, harasses them every single day and bc of relatives and families and friends that are non supportive and kicks them out/ disowns them and beats the shit out of them from time to time u know. Also we always talk about suicide but haven't y'all also noticed how they are also easier targets when it comes to street agressions and being murdered on the street??
    Idk, think about that for a second.
    Also we don't encourage it, we just make it visible so people understand that it's something that happens sometimes and that if one of your friends/family are trans, you should love them regardless. That's all we wanna do. If u don't get it that's on you, sorry.

    • I wholeheartedly agree with the basic human rights perspective. Except most of the current user base of IIN has changed over the years and is populated by people who still think being trans is an aberration and refuse to accept that it's actually none of their business and not their place to judge what that community goes through.

    • If my kid turned trans the last thing i would do is support it and tell him hes a real girl and normal. "Here take these hormones, get the dick cutting surgery, this is totally normal and not weird at all. You're gonna be happy!" Naw, he's gonna be miserable like the other trans people. I dont advocate for bullying people but I can not change the world. No one thats not an SJW-LGTB member is gonna want to be seen hanging around them. The fact is the majority of people on this planet see it as an abomination. I actually feel bad for them and would be nice to them if I ever met them but this is the truth.

      You know this before you encourage someone to become trans.Idc what people over a certain age do they can knock themselves out with it. To be honest it infuriates me that this is coming to elementary schools and its absolutely being indoctrinated and normalized to young kids and it makes me sick.

      • You know what would happen to your kid if that happened? He'd find a chosen family where her choices would be welcomed and encouraged so she could live her best life and feel loved and validated, despite the shitty treatment she had from her family... it's classic. She would live in the outskirts of YOUR society but find a place where "different" is celebrated.The ONLY thing I agree with you on is that it's a hard process and their kin's treatment can be soul crushing. Do you want your daughter's soul to be crushed?

        • You are basically encouraging your kid to fail if they say they are trans and are 100% accepting of it. Like it or not it's an abnormality that most people think it is terrible, because objectively it is.

          I see it as another form of anorexia. Not gonna tell an anorexic that they are right that they are fat. Why continue the delusion of being the other sex?

        • In my state it does not work like that. Not everyone lives in California or New York

          • And you think having no where to go and being rejected by your family does not play a part on their high suicide rate?? You just admitted that yourself. There is no place for them, and they are just trying to exist.

            • Theres no statistics on how many people tried to do this and their loving family talked them out of it and you never hear about it. It does happen. Its not like you have to be mean about it to not accept it.

              • That is akin to gay conversion camps... all done in the name of love.

              • I'm not saying that the family talks them out of it. I am saying that they don't even consider it at all! If there is acceptance there is no (worsening) depression.
                Of course there are some trans people that wanna commit suicide for multiple reasons. What i am trying to say is, if we were all accepting, being trans would not be the reason they would kill themselves for.
                I hope i am making sense, English is not my first (not even my second lol) language.

          • She wouldn't have to go that far, I'm positive the awesome drag community in Nashville would take her in.

            • I was hoping you weren't advocating for authoritarian government forcibly removing my kids and putting them in foster care. I would assume you know about foster care and how shitty it is and the statistical outcomes of kids in it. People who advocate that are actually out there.

              I wouldnt let my kid hangout with drag people either until age 18.

              • Lolwut? What the hell does this have to do with the foster care system?? These trans kids either get kicked out of their homes by parents like you or run away from that oppression.
