Hmm, maybe I need to watch dirty pair, lol.

My 100% vibes based analysis is that 0.5-1% and 3% are both low. Both for the reasons you mentioned, but also because I feel like in a more open society there would be a lot more agender, non-binary (non-trinary? for societies with a 3rd gender), people doing thier own gender, etc. Like even in a society with a third gender, while that's better than just two, there is still a lot of pressure to be one of those three, yeah? In guess I feel like too many studies shit trans people still are too binary focused. But idk. Do you work in stats? You probably know more on this than me

Ahhhhh, that makes sense.

3% seems pretty low to me, but the majority of people I know are non-binary trans people, so my perspective might be skewed.

What's the left-handed graph? I'm not familiar.

Personally, I imagine that, in a society that was truly free of gender-based oppression and where people weren't forced into gender at birth, most people wouldn't even have a gender (though probably a few people would, like as a hobby kinda?). But I could be totally wrong on that. I think you can really only guess how many people would be trans or whatever else once so the bullshit is removed: we're too deep in the bullshit to have any real idea.

It's something special, not something to hide away

Agree! I love being trans!

And I understand wanting to be safe and wanting to not have to deal with transphbic comments, worry about violence, etc. But assimilation isn't a real path towards that, only dismantling patriarchy is.

Yeah, it's just liberal bullshit.

What we actually need is a gender cultural revolution

taking about assimilationists and patriarchyI'm tired of this genre of posts I keep seeing on other sites where they'll say something like "trans people existing doesn't affect you" or like "no one is asking you to change your beliefs, just to treat others with respect" or did stuff like that.

Trans people (and queer people in general) existing IS a threat to the gender system, and so is a threat to people deeply invested in it. I DO want people to change thier deeply held beliefs. I am a radical, I hate society, I want to change it, I want to destroy patriarchy. Assimilationism is not a path to liberation.

Posting in a lame duck thread

Go outside? I have lots of nice, sincere conversations with my friends, deep discussions of philosophy, history, literature, etc. all offline.

Of course, we also all talk in gay slang because, ya know, we're all gay. Not liking gay slang or ebonics is pretty sus.

Also, Food House 2 dropped this year, so idk how anyone can say all music sucks. Maybe you need to broaden your horizons?
