Wow, no I have not, thanks for sharing! That was a very interesting and informative article. A lot of the issues discussed in it I had noticed/heard of but never knew the proper terms nor was I given any research (because as they stated, it’s elephant left ignored.)

To be honest, I wish people in the trans community were more willing to give out research as a whole. This fetish is definitely real, but I don’t think every trans persons dysphoria comes from either their fetish vs hyper femininity/masculinity (because a big problem being faced rn is gnc/butch women being pressured into turning trans, even when they have little to no dysphoria. all the “dysphoria” gnc people recieve is just because social norms tell them women arent allowed to do stereotypically masc things but that’s obviously false.) I would like to hear more research on gender dysphoria itself and it’s causes because of this, but until they’re willing to listen to an accept it, it’s hard to differentiate fetishists using their condition for the sexual fantasy vs people struggling with whatever else.

maybe 'trans' has been hijacked by sexual perverts? I've certainly watched the term mutate in the last 30 years, from referring to some women who turned out not to be, to referring to a bunch of hairy dudes.

On reddit, they have an automod. Different subs can set their own, usually hidden, rules for it. Many subs order it to remove or shadowban all noobs and the downvoted.

Did something happen I don't know about? New members are good, of course, but...

How can I know what you know? I just like rare ideas. This post highlights a potential connection between the trans and incel problem. That's rare, I like.

At least it's in the proper sub.

Yeah, sometimes I put it in the wrong place.

All trans people and all gay people are that way because they are endlessly reliving a childhood sexual trauma. All of them. It's just like how returning war veterans seek out other returned war vets, having little in common with regular people anymore. We call it PTSD today, but it's the same thing. Mentally damaged people relive their traumas one way or the other. It's why teen girls who go astray remain that way into adulthood. Hard to break the loop once one becomes loopy.

What? Lmao you’re going on a largely false tangent

The fact that computers can reliably identify homosexuals from a picture means there has to be a genetic cause to affect their appearance. It's why "gaydar" is a thing.

Maybe our genetics react to the right environment, overcrowding would seen an obvious choice for the gay switch to flip. Maybe trauma does it like you suggest.

Can't really be unnatural though, if it's genetic.

And it happens in other species.

Exactly.

They make potentially quick-fix tools (rather than longterm therapy) like ecstasy, psilocybin, and ketamine illegal because the ruling class wants a crippled and suffering society that's easier to enslave and exploit.

I have a quote for this.

We are all wired into a survival trip now. No more of the speed that fueled that 60's. That was the fatal flaw in Tim Leary's trip. He crashed around America selling "consciousness expansion" without ever giving a thought to the grim meat-hook realities that were lying in wait for all the people who took him seriously... All those pathetically eager acid freaks who thought they could buy Peace and Understanding for three bucks a hit. But their loss and failure is ours too. What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create... a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody... or at least some force - is tending the light at the end of the tunnel.

Hunter Thompson didn't see a miracle cure in psychedelics, at the height of their popularity, he saw it creating problems. And that's fricking Thompson.

Ketamine isn't illegal in the US, there's 5 ketamine clinics in my area. They're just expensive but I've met people who's insurance covers it.

I was once an acid guru. I still have my acid and Leary books and even a BooHoo Bible I bought from Winona Ryder's dad, Leary's archivist. Leary admitted that 80% of his ideas were from the CIA. Acid was more fun than conspiracy theories back then, or I might have delved deeper than Robert Anton Wilson and the JFK movie.

I don't think it was all for naught. I was always a seeker. I used to read a lot of religious texts from all origins to find "the answer" only to realize it's all bunk.

The manufactured problems are bigger than drugs, religions, and fricking Thompson. It's the ruling class and their rigged systems of oppression and exploitation. If everyone were left alone we would all thrive an not need addictive escapes.

I love Ketamine but I'll never tame her. If I had an income I'd get more on the dark web for occasions. MUCH better than booze in almost every way.

Our personal definition of sex is decided by the wiring of our brain. When you're straight or gay, it's manageable. But what if your brain tells you that you have wrong gender? They probably understand that this trans idea is stupid and try to ignore it, until their inability to have proper sex drives them insane.
