A big part of society are transphobic but they think they aren't as long as they don't physically attack trans people

I've noticed that a large amount of people are pushing transphobic views but they claim it's not transphobic and that it is to help.

The true intention is probably to help, but fact is its transphobia to be against trans rights. Such rights as if your teenage child say they are trans, you dismissing it as a phase or immaturity, is transphobic. Whether you like it or not. It's classified as transphobic.

Think about it. Why would anyone feel good about their family or friends or strangers online minimizing their identity and their decision in who they are? They are the ones to decide about their body and who they are. Not you, not me, not their classmates, partner, siblings, parents, teachers, therapists. No one else but themselves decide over their body.

To respect that also automatically teaches kids that no one can claim their bodies or want something with their bodies. So if you wanna prevent grooming and predators, respect your kids identity, take them seriously, respect your kids. They're humans too.

You can’t regulate someone’s ideas or feelings… been tried before without good results. Read and understand later part of last century .
what personal issues that a child might be having is between the CHILD and their parents. Nobody else unless the parents decide to seek additional assistance ( obviously within guidelines of the child’s safety)

@Jen5150 The issue at hand is each child needs to be loved for who they are. A trans child is no exception. It's sad that you call transgenders an issue. :/

@Queendragonfly It’s only an issue because the trans community is making it an issue

OK you bring up respect OK respect is not talking about your sexual life while you’re waiting on someone who’s ordered a coffee respect is not something that is freely given respect is something that is earned. You don’t earn respect just by being straight being gay being trans none of that matters none of that has anything to do with respect. Respect is normally shown and given mutually. Quit thinking that people owe you respect if you aren’t doing anything to earn it and if you are doing something to earn it what are you doing walking around telling everyone your sexual orientation is not doing something for other people

@dale74 The issue is to be against transition is to be against the whole person. You invalidate their existence and worth as a human.

@dale74 Transgender isn't a sexual orientation?

It's an identity. You're a man? That's an identity.

@dale74 The lgbtq+ people don't want you to blindly respect them when they do wrong actions, if they are robbing a person of course they won't get respect. But they need approval to exist because of the history where transgendered and gay people were demolished for who they were or who they were sexually attracted to. They want safety and confirmation.

@Queendragonfly you don't need approval to exist that's bullshit. I don't seek approval when I go start a new business I don't seek approval when I do something with my family I don't need other people's approval fuck other people. You are demanding others approve that's making others a slave. It doesn't matter what others think if it does then you aren't confident in yourself. Do what they want to do that's fine but what others think shouldn't matter to them you can't control others or they have no free choice.
