my disorder is not your “gender”

Anonymous OP 1d

I’m assuming it’s that person’s disorder too… I also have ADHD and Autism. Again, who cares what someone identifies as if it makes them feel happy and like themselves

It is not uncommon for people with adhd and/or autism to not feel connected to the idea of gender at all. And, though not adhd, I have seen autistic people who feel this way explain that the only word to really express how they identify is “autistic”. I don’t feel that way, myself, but I can see where they’re coming from. I just think if someone is living authentically in a way that makes them happy, without causing any harm, what’s the problem?

What do you mean by that?

except it does cause harm? it makes nonbinary identities look like a joke. there is science behind gender. there is science behind being nonbinary. no one will ever take trans issues seriously if people keep treating it like a joke.

I’m not sure if you’re aware, but that is a common transmedicalist talking point, used to exclude large parts of the trans community that not deemed ‘trans enough’. Somebody’s personal identity that makes them happy is not the reason people aren’t taking trans issues seriously

the way straight cis people view the community does matter a lot unfortunately. making up genders with no scientific backing just “proves their point” and hurts the entirety of the queer community. people will not support us if we act like that. it matters.

The same exact logic is what’s used by trans meds to argue against that validity of nonbinary people, and gender nonconforming trans people. They use those same arguments, almost word for word. “(Nonbinary people) make (trans people) look like a joke”, “there is a science behind (being trans)”, “no one will ever take trans issues seriously”. Their line for what’s an acceptable trans person is just a bit further over than yours, and excludes all nonbinary people, as opposed to just some

You are continuing to use the very same trans med talking points used to invalidate nonbinary people as a whole

my logic is science based. it is so deeply selfish to use adhd as a gender identity. same with people who identify with stuff like catgender, bunnygender, stuff like that. people decide that their interests equal their gender (even though that isnt how that works), conservatives see that and vote against rights for all queer people. someone wants to identify as adhdgender and suddenly idk if i can marry my girlfriend

How do you feel about those who use neopronouns, and other nonbinary identities considered unpalatable by cis people? Would you like for them to not identify in the way that makes them feel most comfortable and happy, just to appease cis people? We are being targeted by the ultra wealthy, a few nonbinary people with unusual identities are not responsible for the targeted transphobic hate campaign we’re facing right now

like one person wanted a litter box in a school bathroom bc they identified as a cat years ago and conservatives still use it in political conversations against us.

Your science based “logic” does not hold water in the real world. Nonbinary, and trans people who do not experience gender dysphoria are not considered to be valid by the same transmedicalist science you’re supporting. And yet they still exist. These people with unusual identities that you have such a hateboner for ARE NONBINARY. They just experience and express it differently than many, and it’s okay to not personally understand.

What’s not okay is implying that they are responsible for the elite-orchestrated attack on our rights for simply existing in a way that you don’t understand. Where do you draw the line? Are bigender people okay? How about Genderfluid? Agender?

Now you’re unironically bringing up the “litter box” conservative talking point?! You realize that the “litter box” Fox News was so upset about was for children to use during school scooter lockdowns right? You are just parroting conservative and transmed talking points, but drawing your own personal line.

Anonymous OP 1d

Conservatives are voting against our rights because of a billionaire funded, years in the making, politically motivated hate campaign against us. A nonbinary person identifying as bunnygender because it makes them feel euphoric and happy is not the problem here 😭

Furthermore, it isn’t even that deep or dangerous, to assume someone else’s identity impacts how serious a group of voters will take us (cuz let’s be serious, hate isn’t gonna discriminate. those fuckers hate us all regardless of the current gender meta) is giving serious pick-me. Happy pride!

Surely you must recognize the fact that the “elites” use all of those to turn public opinion against the queer community 🫩 It actively harms everyone else in the community by giving conservatives something to rally against. Not everyone is so unique that they must use some new term to say they’re non binary.

They are going to hate us, regardless. That is the point. Lgb without the T people argue that we are harming the community by giving conservatives something to rally against. Transmeds argue that nonbinary people, and trans people without dysphoria are harming the community by giving conservatives something to rally against. Can't you see that they are rallying regardless?

The elites do not care. They target binary trans people just the same. Even when we don't do anything, they make up things like the previously mentioned "litter box". What are you not understanding? This same argument can be, and is made about trans people, and nonbinary people. Who are you to draw the line on what identity is valid, and what is too unpalatable for cis people to be allowed?

You are being purposefully dense if you cannot see the ways those “identities” have been weaponized to harm the entire community.

You are being purposely dense if you cannot see that that harm would be done regardless. They do not care. They latch onto anything and everything, and try to tear us apart. When it’s not neopronouns and genders, it’s literally anything else about us. Your weaponization point is the same logic used by trans meds and lgb without the t to justify themselves. We as trans people are constantly weaponized against the lgbt+ community as a whole, that doesn’t mean we need to (or can) stop being trans
