re: #442 Nyet

I might have been more calm had this been the first time.
Sheā€™d already had this discussion here, the discussion included two transwomen even, but apparently this didnā€™t help at all.

So yes, when she began to spout about how itā€™s all just ā€œimaginingsā€ and how taking your kidā€™s nature into account is ā€œchild abuseā€, and after re-reading Leelahā€™s story, I wrote what I thought. It goes far beyond a mere ā€œdifferent opinionā€.

And you continue to miss the point.

Some people are not going to change. Itā€™s been like that through the history of man.

This is a discussion board. She shared her opinion. You donā€™t like it, fine. But to say fuck you to her doesnā€™t make you some shining light for gender issues.

It makes you a bully. Once you utter something like thatā€¦all reasonableness goes right out the door. It does nothing to change anyoneā€™s view. Good job.

Later. Iā€™m bummed by all this. I have to run out and mail some carp. A good time to do it.
