    The idea that trans people only need trans rights in gender affirming care, legal recognition, non-discrimination in workplaces and housing rentals etc, but not basic human needs like food, housing, general healthcare too is how many liberals have been shirking themselves of social responsibilities by dressing themselves in identity politics.

    ‘I support trans rights but I draw the line at universal access to food, housing, healthcare, and education’ is a denial of basic needs to trans people too. Trans people should be part of the challenges to society because they deserve access to basic human needs just as much as everyone else.

    If you’re willing to take away someone’s rights, then you’ve created a system which can take away anyone’s rights, even yours.

    The only way to guarantee human rights for you is to guarantee human rights for all.

    they are responsible for the challenges, as is the rest of the population. it is just these challenges are rarely direct consequence of someone’s sexuality.

    Sexuality or sexual identity isn’t the problem … being afraid is.

    Well, these cases popped up while I was trying to remember Isla Bryson’s name:

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y920n0zj4o
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8rdpdm4r4ro
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj6xlwn570lo
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-63785679
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-56861930
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-35265124

    Isla’s case:
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-64796926

    So that estimate of 0% should probably be revised upwards a bit.

      lol, to what ~0%. That help?

      Also I took one for the team and actually read some of those articles, and I’m sorry, but if you hook up with a trans girl and then fucking take her to court for sex assault because you “would not have consented” if you knew she was born a biological male, then you are the trash of the world and I don’t even have words for you.

      Are those cases because they’re trans? No, they’re just pieces of shit who happen to be trans. So it has nothing whatsoever to do with the “trans community.”

      Individual cases of rape or other forms of sexual assault aren’t necessarily “challenges we face as a society”. I think this phrase refers to broader issues impacting us all, like climate change.

      Yeah, cherry-picked shitty people (trans people are people too, in both the negative and positive) in response to a conversation about systemic oppression is a bad take at best, and purposeful disinformation at worst. Knock this shit off
