Cisgender

Hey, you're the one that keeps posting all the badly drawn cartoons showing threatening crowds of women with dyed hair and disabled people closing in around you. I figure if you post it, it's cause you relate to it, no?

no, i find it amusing when special ********** get bent out of shape about it. remember, offence is taken, not given.

Hey, I was just taking the ****. I mean they look like a colouring book for baby Nazis. Especially the one that shows disabled people closing in on someone's home! :D You're taking this a bit too seriously if you read my making fun of you as me getting "bent out of shape".

Can't blame someone for thinking that maybe you really do see the world like this just a teeny-weeny bit. :D

Okay, leaving baiting twist3d0n3 over his homophobia (and inferior l33t spelling to my own), because he doesn't seem to understand it and just falls back on "you criticized me, you must be all upset wah wah" responses, here's something a bit more on topic and relevant:

Paypal has just cancelled a major business centre in North Carolina because (they say), NC has introduced anti-LGBT legislation:

I don't know the full details of the legislation but the headline part was that it states that people should use the bathrooms of their actual birth sex, not what they choose to identify as or what they've been surgically realigned as.

I can see the case for post-op transsexuals to use their destination sex bathroom, but personally, I don't like it and I certainly wouldn't want any pre-op or other person using the wrong bathroom. I especially wouldn't like men coming into the women's changing rooms at the gym or similar. And the only reason the NC state actually made a ruling on this at all is because some lower level body made a ruling that people had free choice to choose which facilities they used.
 
homophobia
i don't think you know what that word means if you think i'm homophobic xD

(and inferior l33t spelling to my own)

passive aggressive, nice.

anyway, i disagree with transgenderism because from what i've experienced with it (i work with people who have mental health issues, and some of which believe this gender spectrum stuff), and feel it's a mental disorder. if you don't agree, that's fine. that's your opinion.
 
I feel like I'm walking into a saloon during a shoot out. I'm surprised we haven't used GD as a set for a sequel to The Good, the Bad and the Ugly yet, lol. Carry on!:D

I've seen no evidence that the Victorians associated paedophilia with homosexuality. In fact, they were practically in denial that it even occurred. Compared to today, paedophilia was virtually ignored during the Victorian era.

The specific gem we've inherited is the popular, and up until recently legal and criminalised, link between what was classed as 'sexual deviancy' and 'immoral character'. Now, at the turn of that century child protection was in a dire state in general, let alone that of sexual abuse of minors being treated as a separate crime (though moral panics were becoming more frequent; thanks to the development of mass-printed press; and the subsequent measures to protect minors from prostitution and organised brothels are of relevance to what had followed).

Nonetheless, the precedents set and the quack sciences used (when criminal profiling begun, you could be arrested for looking too shifty!), and latter dropped, moulded the state of being gay as a compounding factor in anything from rape to high treason; a cultural myth we still very much bear today, just sample the gutter rags; the language is less archaic and the state of being gay is no longer criminal, but the popular perception and justification still lags by at least half a century, as these threads often demonstrate. Case in point being the claim that being gay is a choice.

I've highlighted the Victorian era in particular, because as far as the UK law is concerned, it's the first time since the criminalisation of the act of sodomy, that the behaviour and the sexual orientation were singled out and systematically legislated against. Urged on, of course, by the baying of the ignorant mob and political scandal.

The restriction to bathrooms are not their to make you feel comfortable with your identity when you need a poo but rather to make others (as it is a public/work bathroom!) feel comfortable when they need to go.

It is nothing to do with an individuals sexuality or personal identity, as no one in that bathroom is going to actually know it. It is for this reason that you should use the bathroom that matches your physical characteristics. If OTHER people in the bathroom are freaked out by your appearance in there, then chances are you are doing it wrong, since the purpose of those bathrooms is not social, not for safety, not for announcing ones personal feelings on how they should be but rather for going to the toilet and in a place shared with other people.

Public facilities are there to accommodate the general public comfort not the individuals comfort. If individuals used public facilities to their own personal wants at the expense of everyone else, then that wouldn't work.
