Man this imageboard used to be fucking cool.
This type of shit has only caused harm to the chan culture if you haven't figured already. Instead of giving us the right to say whatever the fuck we want, you'd always double down on every little thing we've complained about, and pussy out by banning the posts which contradict your brainwashed perspective.
Last thing I've ever wanted on imageboards was the alphabets taking over. These entitled, hypersensitive, silver-spooned terminally online mobs will do anything in their power to take down the meanies. And now it seems that nobody has the chance of stopping them, be it imageboards or elsewhere.
Gone are the days of people having the right to be repulsed by fags, telling them to fuck off back to the Pulp Fiction basement. Feels absurd to live in a world where anything said against the alphabet is considered a horrible, horrible thing now.
In fact, anything said about trannies in a remotely negative light in the present day is enough to make you enemy of the entire world. Anything anti-tranny is somehow "morally wrong" and "literally the devil". Well guess what, recommending your impressionable friends and kids to mutilate their fucking bodies in order to "achieve euphoria uwu" (or whatever other bullshit excuses you have) sure as fuck isn't the morally superior thing.
It makes me vomit. It physically makes me uncomfortable to think this is getting more accepted by the day, and you're contributing to this moral decline no less. Each and every fucking one of you mongrels.
If freaks of nature let freaks of nature openly discuss their fetishes, then only the most disgusting, rancid-smelling, grotesque herd of posters will soon be the only ones left here.

Instead of taking care of the years-long pizza spam, we get shit like this. If you plan on turning this place into anonymous Reddit, then go ahead and make a fucking subforum on that shortbus site. You'll have millions of cumbrains agree with you without any compromise.

Unless I wish to date or sex you I do not give a damn about which gender you want to present yourself as, how you look or even who you want to do lewd things with. Be yourself. That's the one thing that matters. Yet I would actually be happier if gender and sex wasn't the first thing certain people threw at me when I met them. For some reason it instantly raises a red flag for me. I have met too many people IRL with such traits that ended up being absurdly obnoxious. Even then, the majority of them is still cute and deserving of a hug.

People like you make us actually terrified to be here because we know what you actually stand for. But I haven't asked for much, just for the users here to not be complete asswipes to each other, and for trans conversation to literally be confined to a single thread. Shouldn't you be happy about that?
If being who you really are means going out of your way to make other people feel bad, maybe you should be looking inward at that instead of distracting yourself from your own self-growth by projecting your despair and self-hatred outward onto other people who just want to have a good time.

Now onto the real shit…
How can so many people (at least, people I went to HS with) come out to their parents after like a week of knowing? Most of the time it goes well, but you can never be too sure. With me it's 50/50 chance of acceptance/disownment, and I do not like to take chances, especially knowing that something like this could absolutely fuck up your life if you don't have a safety net to fall back on.
Personally, I'll try and hold out until I can actually hold down a place to live, or at least perma-crash at someone else's. Unfortuntately a job is almost certainly required. Fuuuggg. It's tough but… what can ya do.

Unfortuntately a job is almost certainly required. Fuuuggg. It's tough but… what can ya do.There's a bit to unpack here. Firstly, trans people often know for a long time before they tell anyone. So it might seem like it happened suddenly and then they are telling their parents right away, but more likely they had been mulling over it for a long time, and finally found the power inside themselves to live it outwardly.
I think that sometimes when someone has not been living as their true self for a long time, when they finally embrace it, becoming themselves is more important to them than even feeling safe in their own home or having a clear future. It depends on the person, and how much they have been suffering by holding it in or denying it to themselves all this time.
For me personally, I had been living on my own for some years before I figured it out, and even then I was terrified to tell my parents. I told my mom first, I thought she would take it well and she really did. My dad didn't react badly but he seems like he tries not to think about it too much. (He lives far away so I haven't seen him in years though.)
I was lucky to be surrounded by supportive people as I figured myself out; coming out to my own social circles was easy. I definitely waited a while to start dropping hints on my imageboards though because I knew it could be a mess. It's harder for me to speculate about the people who had to come out in hostile environments, but many of my friends were that way.

that being said, it's not like i came out right after realizing it either. i first knew when i was 10 or 11 and i didn't come out to my parents til i was 15.
it's not like they reacted particularly well or poorly though, they didn't believe me at all. i wasn't able to start transitioning til i was an adult.

I’ve mentally checked myself and I’ve confirmed it’s not for any weird psychological reasons, I’m just content with everything there and things changing would probably just make me dysphoric in a different way.
However, I really want more facial hair and a deeper voice. I say ‘more’ because I actually already have an inflated level of T due to a hormonal condition, so I’ve actually grown a bit of facial hair naturally. However, because of my body, I kind of just look like shaggy in that one scene in the live action scooby doo movie where he says ‘I’ve got a chicks body!!’. Same facial hair and all.
I also want top surgery, obviously, but again I doubt that’s a possibility for me right now.

No.8435
>>8434I'm a different anon but I must say this…
You should do it anyway if you know that it will give you more things that you want than things you don't. The wanted changes may have a bigger effect on you than the unwanted ones and you're wasting your time wondering if it's worth it or not. Minoxidil could be a temporary solution for facial hair but there's no other way around when it comes to a deeper voice.
This goes for anyone else on the fence about it. Whether it's feminization or masculinization that you're seeking, if you have the access to hormones and you're certain that the effects of HRT are going to improve your life, quit wondering if it's worth it and just do it.
Otherwise dysphoria will only eat you away slowly until you're completely destroyed as a person, assuming that there's still anything inside of you at all. It's too late for me and literally inaccessible, but it may not be too late for many other trans anons. The people who hate us are never going to understand the feeling of watching yourself grow into something you never thought you would become or never wanted to be, and many of us don't understand the cause of the feeling until it's too late or we understand it but didn't get the support we needed.
They call us delusional when we tend to know more about human anatomy than them, they're trapped in the cage that is bioessentialism with no true understanding of their own hormones or reproductive anatomy, yet they believe we don't know the obvious — or else how would gender dysphoria manifestate? They know that many of their beliefs contradict each other but they do not care as long as they get to hate on people who are seen as less than humans.
Those are things we all know.
It's why you must stop hesitating, if you know something is going to help you feel better and closer to what makes you an individual, stop wondering and start injecting.

>It's too late for meI don’t think it is. If you’re able to give this advice to me and say it with such heart, I think you need to hear it as well. Even if HRT is inaccessible to you (diy is always an option but I don’t know how easy it is for you), you can still live socially or even privately as who you are. It’s never too late until you quite literally stop existing. Again, super hypocritical as the guy who can’t decide if they want to start T or not, but, sometimes the best advice is the stuff you give others but not yourself.
>Minoxidil could be a temporary solution for facial hairWay ahead of you, I’ve actually been using it for a few weeks now. Not really any results yet, but, this stuff apparently needs like three months so I’m not complaining. I’ve noticed tiny changes so I’m happy.
You might’ve helped me become more firm in my choice anon. I’m still undecided, and my country reeeaallly doesn’t like hrt at the moment (waiting lists are god knows how long and i definitely can’t afford private).

No.8439
>>8391>>8393So something about this, my best friend is trans, I've been on hrt before myself for almost a year, not anymore, more non-binary than trans-fem but that's neither here nor there. Point is, yes, it can effect your fertility permanently if you're taking estrogen. Less than a year and you're likely fine, I've had fertility tests since and don't have any issues. Many years on estrogen and fertility can take a long time to come back or may not come back.
My best friend started when she was 16 and has been trying to become fertile again for nearly a year now. She's taking clomid to help regain fertility after just letting T work on its own for a while. She probably will be okay, her metrics are looking better than they were some months ago, but she's outright despondent over the whole process with dysphoria.
I'm saying all this because you absolutely should sperm bank before starting HRT if you are able to. If this is prohibitive for you it's safe to start for a few months just to see how you emotionally feel but keep in mind if you really like how estrogen feels you might hate having to go off to sperm bank in the future.
I personally feel kind of cursed myself, I would rather be on e and feel way better on e but I value my fertility too much unfortunately. It's either I feel depressed about one thing or I feel depressed about another.
Also to anyone here taking HRT please try estrogen monotherapy first! You might not need and androgen blocker and if you do you probably don't need such a high dosage. Everyone needs some testosterone in their bodies and when dumb endocrinologists nuke your T levels to zero with a high dose of spironolactone or something it can make you feel very weird, depressive, dissociative, etc.
I took spiro + e for a few months and felt like utter shit the entire time and had blunted emotional affect. When I switched to estrogen monotherapy I felt amazing and more like myself than ever really, and became very in touch with my emotions. Estrogen alone in high enough levels will regulate your T without destroying it completely. Ideally you want your T levels to be what a cis-women's healthy levels would be to get good results, not just physically, but also emotionally, in my experience
Some people do well with high-dose androgen blockers and it's not impossible that a small dose might be beneficial. But I've met more people that don't do well with them and some doctors can be really clueless about slowly ramping up dosage or trying monotherapy alone first.
No.8440
>>8439>>8391>>8393to add to what you said about monotherapy and testosterone!
low t levels can actually be extremely dangerous! the average cisgender woman has between 20 and 40 ng/dl of testosterone naturally in their body. this is a necessary baseline to function properly, as testosterone isn't just a sex hormone, it's an intermediary hormone that helps regulate many of your body's normal functions. having a t level that's too low can actually be physically dangerous for you! anecdotally, my hormone provider had me on a fairly high blocker dose (100mg spiro/day), and when i went to go start prog they didn't cut my blocker dose at all. as a result, my t dipped to extremely low levels and i became severely anemic, causing me to nearly have a heart attack. generally speaking, the lower limit for what is safe in regards to t levels is 10 ng/dl. mine was around 4.
i'm currently still not on prog, but my spiro dose has been lowered to 25mg/day. while there are some negative side effects, such as a dramatic increase to my body/facial hair growth and much worse acne outbreaks, on the whole i feel much better and my anemia is completely gone. in a couple weeks, i'm going to try to get back on the progesterone.

>>8439It's a medical unknown right now I think. Some people have HRT for over a decade and regain fertility or even remain fertile while on HRT while others have lost their fertility seemingly permanently after only a few years. Researchers haven't effectively studied this enough to clear answers yet.
Part of the paperwork I signed to get HRT was acknowledging potential permanent fertility effects but it generally takes over a year for that risk to be present. The wording was, "There is a risk you may lose fertility permanently undergoing HRT treatment."
You can read about the effects of various treatments here, including more experimental stuff.
https://transfemscience.org/articles/transfem-intro/
>Estrogens, progestogens, and androgens also have antigonadotropic effects. That is, they inhibit the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-induced secretion of the gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), from the pituitary gland in the brain. The gonadotropins signal the gonads to make sex hormones and to supply the sperm and egg cells necessary for fertility. Hence, lower levels of the gonadotropins will result in reduced gonadal sex hormone production and diminished fertility. If gonadotropin levels are sufficiently suppressed, the gonads will no longer make sex hormones at all and fertility will cease. The vast majorities of the quantities of estradiol, testosterone, and progesterone in the body are produced by the gonads. Most of the small remaining amounts of these hormones are produced via the adrenal glands of the kidneys. No.8443

I moved into a new apartment and one of the people I have to share with is trans. I'm a mentally ill hikineet with no social skills and I'm scared of trans people even though I've never really known one. She bumped into me by accident in the kitchen 3 days ago and I freaked out. I don't like people physically touching me but she probably took it as an anti-trans thing. I said some hurtful things. I've noticed her presence has been stressing me out and I've been behaving more erratically. Like how cats act out when they are feeling anxious. I feel really guilty about it. Like I'm making her life worse. Its impolite and it must suck dealing with hostilty out there. I don't mean to attack her or anything and I want us to be nice to each other and get along so she feels comfy. Should I apologize or minimize the damage by just avoiding her? What's the best way to apologize without accidentally offending her? I'm worried I'll say something stupid. Is it possible I'm actually attracted to her? Do you think she can tell?
Also if I'm a traditionalist who's generally anti-LGBT is this violation of site rules? Am I okay to post unrelated stuff here? Do you consider not liking trans people to be transphobia?

By interest I mean like when your landlord installs a new vent in the hallway and you spend hours inspecting it, leaving, goimg back to inspect it, worrying about what it means or why its there or why its shaped that way or if its hiding something. Like there's some hidden truth I just need to discover when its just new fucking vent cover. That kind of schizo interest/fear/curiousity/OMG I'm gonna fucking die if I don't keep looking at this terror. Like a braindamaged puppy that can't think straight. I guess I could be interested in her in that kind of way. Idk what I'm saying anymore. I need help.
I guess I'll just avoid them for a while and learn to calm down. Just learn to get used to them.

Rough to hear about your family though. If I can spare a shared sentiment rather than advice, I have a somewhat distant family who was all kinds of…interesting about trans people. So when I transitioned, I stayed away from her as much as I could. However, I think word got back to her on my transition because she sent me a birthday card with my current name on it, and even complimented it in the card. So, if it’s any comfort, there could still be room to change!
I wish you good luck in your transition!!!

>>8534> my relationship with my mother has been strained following coming out and discussing HRT Imagine you had a child. Imagine the pain of childbirth, the difficulty of raising this life, bringing up the daughter you’ve always wanted, only for your child to turn around and tell you that they don’t want to be your daughter. That’s devastating. I know people these days are suckers for “autonomy” and “individuality” and doing their own thing, but remember a mother gets her sense of self, the meaning of her life, from her child and now that child doesn’t want to be the thing she raised. It’s an existential injury. You might not mean it that way but that’s how she could be interpreting it. “My daughter doesn’t want to be my daughter anymore. I’m a bad mother.” That cuts deep. With time she may heal, but there’s a chance she never will even if she comes to accept you which I hope she does.
>i find she is very misinformed and prejudiced about people like meDon’t think prejudice stems from misinformation. Familiarity can breed hate. America is a country that is extremely nationalist, genocidal, and intolerant of diversity, yet this very country has dedicated whole academic departments to every known human culture and pumps out DEI training. You could inform her, but there’s a chance she won’t like what she finds and will hate you more. In some ways, not knowing the details is better. You know, once upon a time, individuals like yourself were more likely to be accepted in conservative communities. Why? Because such societies had a “if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it’s a duck” attitude and didn’t care about particulars or knowing the details. “Trans? Don’t know, don’t care, not my business.” Sometimes ignorance is bliss and there’s a chance trying to correct her views or inform her will only backfire, especially if she’s still emotionally torn up about it.

it seems distance is the best option for us at the moment… i moved away a little bit before covid to live with my partner on the other side of the country and our connection has been pretty strenuous since, even before i decided to be honest with her about myself.
i'm really pleased she sent you that card though and i can only hope i experience something similar when she realises i'm becoming who i've always wanted to be! wishing you all the best as well, and whether or not you pursue HRT i hope you'll never stop proudly being yourself.

>>8546i acknowledge that this is difficult for her as a parent and i've been nothing but considerate of her sensitivities and feelings when discussing my identity with her, but to interpret your child making their own choices as they near 30 years old as a personal attack on you and regarding them still as a mere extension of your womb is, to put it harshly, self-centred. you can't control how others feel, i can't stop her from feeling like she "failed" as a parent, and she has decided to make her politically charged aggression informed by youtube shorts my responsibility, which i find unfair when i never wanted her understanding or acceptance, just for her to be aware; my feeling hurt has just been an unexpected sideeffect i'm pretty mad at myself for!
it doesn't help that her rebuff of sharing what's happening in my life comes after an argument earlier this year in which she implored me to share anything and everything with her, which i foolishly took her up on. as a result i've become more closed off than ever from her, because she's shown me i cannot be myself like she desperately wants. our conversations stick to work or hobby matters now, if at all.
i also disagree with your idea that motherhood becomes a person's sole sense of self/meaning of life and find it derogatory towards mothers. they can and do find happiness outside of their children, and my mother is capable of that too. i saw it happen in my teens!

>>8548Just to be clear, I'm not attacking or blaming you. Just trying to point out how someone else might be interpreting/misinterpreting your actions.
Human beings are not atoms as Westerners like to think. We are our relationships. We are defined by our relationship to other people and we naturally want to perfect them. Usually, a husband wants to be a good husband, a mother wants to be a good mother etc. in each case, that's measured by the happiness and fufillment of the person on the other end of the relationship. A mother who has a daughter wants to raise a good daughter, takes pride in having a daughter, and derives meaning from that mother-daughter relationship among other things. If the daughter then comes out as trans, that psychologically throws off the parent. "Like what, I'm not a good mom? She doesn't want to be my daughter now? What happened to my little girl? I fucked up. I raised her wrong" etc. I know Westerners have this attitude of "well I'm an individual so mind your own business" which explains why their society is so fucked up and degenerate but we aren't individuals. We're extremely co-dependent and even things that are well meaning or totally justified can be hurtful to others.
You trying to share could come off as gloating or rejection to her. Other people may not understand your well meaning actions. Demanding acceptance from her is hurting her. It must be a lot to take in for her. Give her time. Think about how complicated it was for you to come to terms with yourself. Right now she might be going through something simmilar.
In a situtation like this, you have to give your mother time to come to terms with it and let her know you'll always be hers. Reassure her that you love her, that she didn't fuck up and be careful about how she might misread your behavior. Don't push her away or ignore her feelings, even if they are hurtful. Its best if you reconcile with her but that's going to take time and care and its not going to be easy.

On the other hand, balancing group identity discussion is next to impossible in IBs, going to any solutions risk you becoming a toxic hugbox or a toxic fightbox, there is no in between.
So my personal moderation option would be to just do nothing, because honestly I don't see much has changed in terms of anti-trans posters, they're still there occassionally, when they are not, they are doing something else, entertained shitting on trans on other site, or too bored to even bother, because bans on imageboards don't really do anything due to your identity not really tied to anything else, like, in facebook or reddit at least you have to burn an email to avoid bans.

Having a fetish doesn't change the one's identity. You're still the same individual as you were before obtaining that fetish, you just jerk off to what makes you aroused the most.

>>8617Aoi anon back with a vengeance lol
As a trans person I can make this call, and I say this sentiment is both pretty correct and doesn’t capture the whole story.
See, changing identity is a bit of a reductive summary. It’s more along the lines of ‘becoming what you always were’. A trans woman was always a woman, but she couldn’t come into that identity until she realized that’s who she was. Similar with me, I was raised a girl, but I was always non binary and when I started transitioning, i came more into that true identity. It just looked like a change of identity to people on the outside.
(Though, I will say, I can’t speak for all trans people. This is just what I’ve observed in both myself and who’s around me)
Fetishes, on the other hand, aren’t a part of identity. They can be if you’re more into the s&m scene (which is fair enough, I know some people in those circles), but they’re not as fundamental a part of you as your gender identity. I can say this because I have some odd fetishes myself, and they’re not a focal part of me like my transness is. It’s just a thing I have.
But again, you know, I can’t speak for everyone.
No.8619
>>8617>Perhaps because becoming transgender involves making changes to a person's identity?The whole idea of being a tranny stems from autogynephilia - a fetish in which men idolize feminine traits, and attempt to become feminine themselves. A man's attraction to femininity is a perfectly natural thing. Hell, I'd even say that casual thoughts of imagining oneself as a woman isn't inherently a bad thing. A lot of people I know, myself included, were kinda into that fantasy for a while in middle school. Nothing's wrong with just imagining something.
Trying to adopt feminine traits though, is not even worth ignoring the absurdity, no matter how woke today's culture has become.
>Transitioning from one sex to anotherDid chromosome change become a thing? Humans aren't able to change what they were born with between their legs. Even the manufacturing issues, or "intersex" can be explained with ease, Klinefelter's syndrome for example.

>>8616>>8619I'm aware that trying to change people's minds on highly politicized issues is pointless, but bullshit going uncontested is how it infects neutral minds, so I'll say my piece and leave.
Gender dysphoria is NOT fetishistic. It is pain. When a fetishist transitions that is what we call "a bad decision". Tragically, those treating their life of pain and those looking to get railed in heels are now known under the same name, but until gender dysphoric people started to become just accepted enough that fetishists could co-opt them, the former was what "transgender" meant. So if you want to use language that illucidates the truth rather than hides it, you can acknowledge these two categories and call the first one trans, rather than continue with this embarrasingly retarded notion that an action must always have the same motivation.
If you need an example, I have had gender dysphoria since I was a kid. My body's and persona's masculinity has always felt disgustingly wrong and caused me many nights of writhing pain and merciful dissociation. I have a much lower sex drive than most men and never got into porn because seeing naked bodies upsets me and the things they do with them are disgusting. It's not necessary to be this sexless in order to be trans, but it makes me a good counterexample to this falsehood.
As for the amazon thing, I don't know why neoliberalism or whatever you'd call it happens, but it's hardly our fault and a lot of us aren't very happy about it.
Maybe you won't believe me because you have a crossdressing fetish and can't imagine any motivation to transition other than that. If that is the case, you must expand your willingness to understand humanity outside what you are capable of experiencing, otherwise you have no right to speak about other people. This might be scary because you will realise your theory of mind is incomplete and that you don't really know what is going on behind someone's eyes, but it is the only way if you're interested in the truth.
No.8622
>>8620>trying to change people's minds on highly politicized issuesThis ain't a political issue. No matter what the government says about pride, rights, lefts or whatever else they'll come up with next, dysphoria is purely psychological. It's an issue that modern doctors will refuse to solve the right way.
Identity crises can always be treated with no harm or ill intent to the patient, but I guess convincing oneself into being something completely different is woke and prog.
>So if you want to use language that illucidates the truth rather than hides itIf we're really going into semantics, then let's deconstruct the word "fetish". Ignoring its origins in spirituality and superstition, it's an "excessive fixation or devotion to particular thoughts and ideas".
Even if the word is associated with sexual interests nowadays, its general meaning doesn't have roots in sexuality at all. So one could say that it's accurate to consider dysphoria fetishistic, since it's a pretty clear example of the general definition.
>My body's and persona's masculinity has always felt disgustingly wrong>I have a much lower sex drive than most men>seeing naked bodies upsets me and the things they do with them are disgustingSounds a lot like a hormonal imbalance of sorts. The inability to be attracted to sex isn't what a healthy person could experience, so maybe you should try introducing more healthy habits into your life. Being unfaithful to one's intended role as a reproductive species means there's clearly something wrong with one's lifestyle.
>Maybe you won't believe me because you have a crossdressing fetish and can't imagine any motivation to transition other than thatI don't think my posts were supposed to imply that I have a thing for crossdressing. Fantasies from middle school and the current stuff I'm into aren't connected in any way, and even less so related to crossdressing and trannies.
>you must expand your willingness to understand humanity outside what you are capable of experiencingHumanity has been completely ruined by the modern world. Our animalistic roots were ignored by a more comfortable, and resulted in a less fulfilling life full of imbalance and disease.

No sane treatment of identity crisis will encourage a child's thinking that they really are a superhero or pirate.

>you've made a point that says nothing at allIt's the act of obsessing over an insane concept. A concept that lives in one's head rent-free, it won't leave their heads until they end up the way they wanted to, which turns into bragging and desperately seeking validation.
Last few decades have been degrading for language anyway. Words are now being butchered and mangled in favor of a simple and shallow meaning.
>how many in /hikki/ can say they've had sex in the past year or more, nevermind having ever had sex to procreateBeing hikki means that we're at one of the bottom ends of society. Our natural instincts and impulses clash with people's natural need to interact with each other, without the rules that have been imposed to "control the chaos".
>and how many can genuinely say they wish to procreate whilst being part of a demographic with so much pornography addiction and hentai viewersYou might not accept it, but we all wanna fuck and make healthy kids. It's the bullshit of the modern world says "NO" and makes us think that way. The simple answer is buried under the midden of rules, classes, social hierarchy, and millions of other bullshit reasons. The ability to satisfy those urges by oneself is a curse, and is to blame for so many sex-related issues, down to simple fetishes.
>you can't claim transgender issues is inherently "fetishistic", no matter what silly definition you're going to try to push in your reply, and then try to argue that some people's lack of comfortableness with or drive towards sex is strange. unless you want your views to be called inherently fetishistic, too?Then why the dude's obsession? Why would someone go through a process of doing irreversible damage to the body, just to live an unrealistic and regrettable fantasy? What purpose is there to fulfill, if there's nothing but a strong desire to live a fantasy? I can only think of one word
And what's there to be fetishistic about my views? There's a bunch of people more obsessed with their hatred.

>>8627>desire with what an adult is expressing as a factual and treatable medical issueIf those thoughts have stayed to adulthood, or god forbid came after puberty, they cannot be called a natural tendency anymore. It's just a twisted thought at that point.
Also, most things in the medical world are manipulated by the government, worsened by them to make our society shittier, or used as marketing to squeeze out money for le science.
"Muh medicine better now cuz it new and say trans rights", but actual advancement doesn't even happen without heavy compromise anymore. Your shrink might support you and give some pills, but that's a result of the declining standards in medicine.
The only treatment is paying a private doctor independent of political and commercial bullshit, who can easily apply a healthy treatment. But I guess none of you would ever want that, because it clashes with your rose-tinted glasses.
>the natural tendency of all humans to ruminate on their current self and any internalised ideal or more comfortable/preferable self isn't something to criticiseThe human mind is a dangerous thing. It's fairly easy to go off the deep end should you get lost in thought for too long.
It can cause a whole lot of wonderful things like, depersonalization and derealization, not to mention the questions about your own identity.
Of course hikki are affected by this, we've got so much free time to think about anything. The main problem is that people don't wanna set some clear boundaries, which wouldn't have caused you to go so far off the road.
>and in nearly every actual, healthcare-professional-monitored instance the result is neither unrealistic nor regrettableRight. You wanna be reminded of a certain percentage?
>what you see lurking 'chans and Kiwi Farms is the smallest sliver of internet cringe, and not representativeBelieve me, I tried to be open-minded before. It never worked, and was a horrible experience at all times.
>your genuine phobia towards transgender people is based upon nothing but your distorted internet-dweller lifestyleBelieve me buddy, I've talked to my parents and grandparents about this, who've been informed with the ever-changing views for decades.
They've all given a whole set of reasons I agree with, and my fellow internet-dwellers just so happen share the same opinions.
>i shouldn't expect any less from /hikki/, i know, but…It's just sad to see this board warp and mangle over time. One of the last little corners on the web has had its soul drained out completely, and I can't be the only one mad at how much worse it can keep getting.

I'm still discovering myself, but, at this point, I'm pretty sure I'm not cisgender. I'm from a very christian household and this makes everything even harder. The existence of this thread is pretty cool! I don't know if there is a lot of transphobes around here, tho.

>>8630Did you know that the topic of discussion is a social movement, not strictly a particular medical procedure? This discussion isn't about cutting or sewing any funny looking balls. Yet.
>most things in the medical world are manipulated by the governmentI thought that such beliefs are landlocked to America and it's PTSD of a medical system. Sad to see that isn't the case. In the majority of actually developed Europe the healthcare is actually kinda okay. Even if the mental healthcare is not awesome. But it's plausible that it's a tad worse in countries such as Serbia, Serbia or Russia.
In addition, it sounds like you want to resolve a proposed political intervention into the medical world with additional political interventions into the medical world that do not reverse the previous ones. The War on Drugs went excellently, didn't it?
>The main problem is that people don't wanna set some clear boundaries [for own thought]Wouldn't you look at it, a proposal of literal thought crimes. That also always went great.

>>8630>muh political trendjust stop pretending to be here to do anything but waste your own time, lol. you're talking out of your arse, and you know it. shooting down accepted medical literature and - in many places that i suspect you'd otherwise call "civilised" - actual law with the excuse of "but it's all a political movement controlling the medicinemen" is laughable.
>le suicide percentage mememaybe if transgender healthcare was given adequate funding, better proposals being ratified into medical practice and law, and easier access to support during and after transitional milestones, that percentage wouldn't exist.
then again, if transgender people didn't have to put up with people like you, that percentage would be a little lower, too.
>opinions of old irl people vs the internetthe internet is not a space solely composed of zoomies, even if they dictate much of the popular media's culture. much of the transphobia on-and-offline come from the same sources. for a multitude of reasons, younger people tend towards progressivism. what you've said is no great revelation, and only reinforces my point: you're stuck online, your opinions are influenced by what you see online, and you're letting the transgender boogeyman in your head fester online. whether the people around you offline also agree with your fear is moot.
i'm going to stop taking your b8 now. i hope any transanons from here on know that this nerd here isn't getting replied to because they're right, or because other anons fear their responses. they're just transphobic for transphobia's sake, and are not worth your time.

>>8633>Did you know that the topic of discussion is a social movementYes, a social movement you'd do anything for to "win". Even if you're "winning" now, your chromosomes will never change. Humans aren't clownfish to change their sex out of necessity (not like transitioning is even done out of necessity in the first place).
>Even if the mental healthcare is not awesomeThere will never be a definitive solution to mental healthcare, as long as civilization exists. It's the only issue that keeps fucking us in the head. No wonder why the rise of mental illness coincides with the technological boom of mid-20th century.
>it's a tad worse in countries such as Serbia, Serbia or RussiaBecause ex-communist Slavic countries are shitholes, with a terrible environment and a culture that could collapse at any moment (former Yugoslavia especially).
>it sounds like you want to resolve a proposed political intervention into the medical world with additional political interventions into the medical world that do not reverse the previous onesAbolishing the new "woke and le cool le epic prog" rules in psychiatry with political intervention is impossible, troonon. What the opposing side thinks is irrelevant for the medical world, especially if a new idea is pushed that doesn't make sense on a biological level. Mixing up biology and politics only leads to mutilation.
>The War on Drugs went excellently, didn't it?Tranny enabling is unfortunately legal, recreational drugs rarely are. While both will fuck up your body and the brain, at least the psychiatrists wouldn't encourage your delusions.
War on drugs was a campaign that made little to no sense in the long run. Opioids, coke and weed all exist in nature, and tracking down every poppy flower or dude weed lmao is virtually impossible. Of course the protests, or annoying ads before Street Fighter didn't do anything.
Hormone pills can only be made artificially, or (if you're a maddo saientisuto so kuuru) extracting them from a living person. While the end of tranny encouraging would significantly reduce the number of victims, some sketchy folks would still make artificial pills and send them to children illegally (many such cases happening as we speak).
In the end, those would still be selling illegal drugs. 40mg of Xanax inside if you're lucky.
>a proposal of literal thought crimesIt's funny how you wanna make me sound like an Orwellian dictator by excluding the rest of my point.
Being able to resist overthinking about insane shit, making yourself insane in the process, ain't Newspeak in the slightest sense.
Nietzsche was based, but went crazy for overthinking WAY over the boundaries of what is even remotely healthy. You think it's Newspeak if he had stopped before the point of no return?

>>8634>shooting down accepted medical literature>actual law with the excuse of "but it's all a political movement controlling the medicinemen" is laughableYou take muh accepted medical literature for granted. Do you really believe that all they say is 100% truth? You're being controlled, and all the medical world prioritizes most is those sweet, sweet Shekels.
They don't care if you need to get a home equity loan to bogpill your wife to the max, or buy ten lifetime supplies of pinkpills. They can advertise in the most convincing way possible, but the upper echelon will only be in it for the money.
>maybe if [doctors got more woke], that percentage wouldn't existNo amount of advancement could save you people from the eventually inevitable regret in the future. It would be 0% if no thoughts had ever been turned into actions
>if transgender people didn't have to put up with people like you, that percentage would be a little lower, tooIf trannies didn't ruin everything they touched, Azumanga Daioh and Lain would still be niche shows with chill fans.
>the internet is not a space solely composed of zoomies, even if they dictate much of the popular media's cultureSo? Niche corners of the Internet I used to like are getting infested by zoomzooms every day. The Internet may not solely be comprised of them, but they're a hurricane that no one can recover from. I might as well blame everything on them
>you're stuck online, your opinions are influenced by what you see onlinekek
>whether the people around you offline also agree with your fear is mootFamily and real life friends have still kept their opinion even after the media is propagating rainbow shit every day now, which they're either pissed off at or ignore entirely. And I'm sure as hell not expecting my parents or grandparents to come out.
