You seriously need the last word, however ridiculous.

Trans non-issues came in last due to the current climate of fear about being erased and such and name-called (you big brutes!) for speaking out... due to your mate leftie attacking me verbally, I've looked into it and spoken out against it ever since..... and now that all the reviews are beginning, and Trump will put more of those in action ..... the jig is up for this fantasy world.

We real people are now sitting back and just waiting on the Untergang of the transgender madness.

Funny thing - one of the 'True Trannies' is very onside with my views - and I with hir's ... since the full Reviews will sort the sheep from the goats and thus create an atmosphere in which True Trannies can get proper treatment for their issues..... and the aspirants... the acolytes... the pretenders etc .. can get proper treatment for theirs.....

Most of the virulent 'activists' about his Madness are school kids... expect the carrying on to ramp up with holidays coming soon.... all the old discredited crap re-birthed and all the same vitriol and vicious personal attacks through reporting views etc wrongly...

The Science will win out no matter what the kideologues carry on about.... Grin

If the US follows a strategy of extricating trans (and other sex/gender-based uber-progressive issues) from educational and other institutions, including sports, the Anglosphere will quickly follow.

Britain and Europe have already begun this process.

Canada may be a hold-out for as long as Trudeau remains in power.

Now that it has had a hugely negative effect on Harris's campaign, Trudeau's political opponents now have a powerful proven cause to attack what's left of Trudeau's hold on power.

The transgender issue is reminiscent of another women-driven activist cause - temperance societies - that resulted in Prohibition being established in the US Constitution's 18th Amendment - only to be repealed some years later, when the 18th's damage was fully realised, by the 21st Amendment.

So when they repeal transgenderism the current rising gangster class based on cutting and drugging kids behind closed doors, including in schools, smuggling in hormones etc, will have to go legit or find a new way to earn a dollar?

Hormones and drugs used in transition 'therapy' already have legal uses in prisons to reduce sexual violence and hyper-sexuality.

What will all those 'surgeons' and 'clinics' and 'other professionals' do for a living? Useful work for a change?

Retain lawyers, and prepare their defence, in the event that their recent (mal)practice on underage kids is retrospectively outlawed via new laws introduced banning the practice.

Am I a cynical person?
Not all the time

Only sometimes… because the way this world is… we need to be cynical to protect ourselves from all sorts of bs/scams/ etc
We just have to know when to turn on our cynicism when there’s a call for it.
I guess the older I get, I get less ripped off or conned because I’ve developed a healthy mistrust Grin

And has been statistically proven - that scams have a higher success rate the younger the target. Boomers are the least likely to be scammed than Millennials and Zoomers.

Against who? Trans people are by and large hugely thankful for any help they've recieved in their transitioning journey.

What's more, the scientific evidence is absolutely and overwhelmingly behind those who support Trans patients.

Who is suing? Is this an extension of your misplaced "political agenda" tag?

If you can't be a good example, you have to be a horrible warning.

Depends entirely on the scam.

Class-action lawsuits against Tavistock are leading the way on this.

Scientific evidence will be tested in court, as eugenics was, and debunked.

You lot will need to realise, that your days of experimenting and diddling around with something as complex as sexuality, via pills and surgery, are over.

Inevitable new laws will deter the medical profession from experimenting on human children - they will not risk prosecution and jail - as they already are in the UK.

All this will one day be compared to the use of the 'miracle drug', Thalidomide, or, relatively more recently, new-generation sleeping tablets that, according to 'the science' were non-addictive and had little to no side effects - until, that is, people using them came-to driving their cars at 3:00 am having side-swiped vehicles all the way up the street.

Nobody ever built a political strategy on trans issues.

Could this place actually be any more ridiculous?

If you don't know, then you don't care.

Transgender people have this rebellious nature that makes them anti-woke. They are claiming to be woke. But the reality is that they have a sizeable proportion of their growing numbers that don't care about what the general community think. They are considered antifascists.

On the other side of the argument are the woke (general community of politically and socially aware) people who are sick of the "in your face" perversity of transgender people. Not that all transgender/non-binary people are perverted. In fact, most transgender just live normal lives. Some transgender just go public with their venting of pent-up rage. Others commit suicide.

At this stage...

Depends entirely on the scam.

Sadly true, the most obvious ones most of us know…. like short prank missed unknown phone calls … expecting us to ring back … I block it, then delete.
Then there’s some unknown numbers ringing which could be legit… do I answer it? Nope!
I say… if it’s important … I have my message saying “please leave a message”
The ones that do… I listen and then know it’s from something like the reception at specialist about changing appointments, or the Vic govt electric heat bank special to replace the gas hws I’m applying for…
Then I call back.

Then there’s some I’ve been scammed with a legit website… and lost $80 recently…
Now I’m more cynical about anything to buy online… over last 5 years caught twice … but not a lot of money lost I can’t get over… it’s the inconvenience of cancelling the credit card for a new one.
I think twice before buying anything now.

I’ve lost interest buying online because I have lost trust.
Best to go shopping in shops I can walk into.

And maybe it’s not just being a tad cynical… I’m getting paranoid!
I check my banking every day!
I hear how even experts have been scammed! And a few elderly too… more so lonely, or widowed or elderly that have been brought up on trust, good will and a handshake deal.
