My dad was watching Fox last night and Laura Ingrams whole WEALTHY&RADICALIZED Segment was the most retarded thing I've ever sat through. Now I'm a red leaning voter but to me fox is as Mainstream media as the rest so I don't buy any of their shtick.

I was dying with her unmoving botoxed face talk about how "Mangioni is a rich elite who was brainwashed by Ivy League schools" then bring on a Republican from a different Ivy league school and praise him for shaming Luigi.

At some moments I swear you could see gears and cogs turning in her head to come up with a cohesive sentence.

My comment is to drive home the point that if you're a small enough minority, you shouldn't expect the rest of the population to bend to your ideology. I carry no prejudice whatsoever, trans people can be as trans as they want.

My point isn't that "trans people don't exist" like you and many others just infer. My point is that un-fully developed children should not be permitted to cease that development because of an emotional feeling.

If you disagree fantastic, that's why this is a point of contention. But to demonize and vilifiy those who disagree with you is childish and leads me to believe you haven't fully developed yourself.

I like this comment. You put the argument into reasonable perspective and have genuinely shifted my beliefs a bit. The reality is I will never willingly vote against any of these things in general election because in all honesty it doesn't affect me.

But I do agree, growth development is variable, like how you've got that one guy in your freshman year bio class who has a full beard and chops. My only hangup is if you don't make a decision is like the trolly problem. The growth is already on a set course, if you don't intervene, is that really making a choice? Or because you're actively NOT doing something is THAT the choice?

Alot of these issues be it trans/gay/illegal/whatever seem to be hung up more on semantics and word association than the actual issues which is stupid, and gets the movements nowhere.

I apologize again for coming off as ignorant, I'm logic dominant brain so alot of my arguments hit people the wrong way even if it's correct.

I understand your sentiment and I dont want to come off as just "transbasher" because i have close both male and female friends who after college decided they wanted to transition. I don't agree with their thought process but I don't tell them or put them down for their choice because it's their choice as an adult.

On the subject of intersex births, I find the 1 in 1700 to be very generous. Having a mother who has worked labor and delivery for the past 30 years in a large hospital, she has only ever had 2 instances where the baby was born intersex. And that's out of tens of thousands of deliveries. In those fringe cases I think sure we can allow those to be allowed to transition because there is a biological reason evident from birth. But if you just have a hormone imbalance that doesn't mean you need to block the natural course of growth to see "what you'd prefer". Just let the body do it's thing and when it's done developing then mess around with it.

Rights are things that the majority of the populace believes, to be true sentiments, but usually is blocked by bureaucracy that profits off the lack thereof.

I'd like Vegas if there was like an airconditioned pedway to walk around the strip out of the heat and away from the crazies but still be able to observe like a human zoo.
