Transman learns about the real 'male privilege'™, and it sucks

You probably just aren't aware of it. Quite a lot of women walking alone will feel kind of nervous around any young man. Not that there is much you can do about it besides quietly creating space, such as walking faster or slower or whatever if you are going in the same direction

The war is in Ukraine, who the fuck could the Ukrainians even commit war crimes against?

That's what 90% of '3rd genders' come down to. Societies that had such strict gender roles that men who transgressed them weren't even considered men.

I would start by saying basic training is a natural petri dish for diseases. At reception you live in bays with 30 people, each person from a random part of the country. Then you are part of a company of several hundred people and spending most of the first week in massive lines surrounded by people. Then after the first week you get assigned to a real company and get scrambled with a new random set of 100-200 people, some of these are the same as from reception, not all, now living in bays with 60 people to a room. There was some regulation that you self quarantine for two weeks before shipping. I was never told, the day I shipped my recruiter handed me a piece of paper stating I had been quarantining and I just went along with it. I assume most people did the same.

We were supposed to be tested every 2-3 weeks, but when we came back from Christmas block leave they stopped testing anyone. When we asked the drills why our testing was suddenly canceled they said they didn't know but seemed annoyed by it. I can only assume the quarantine camps became full to capacity, they were already getting overloaded when I was in just before leave. Of course most people only lost their sense of taste and smell, maybe tiredness and a cough and the cold air started to sting their lungs, though I was asymptomatic. The whole thing was a joke really, in covid camp you wrote down your own temperature and symptoms each day, so you could write whatever you wanted to show you were healthy at the end of the two weeks.

This was still months before the vaccine, but we got all the regular shots. A lot of people in quarantine were picked up from reception, so not all of them had their shots yet. The guy who was hospitalized from quarantine was taken in about 2 weeks after the shoots, the guy who collapsed in the bathroom about 2 months later. We also heard the ambulance come to covid camp every few days to pick someone up, though I didn't personally know anyone else who was taken or how sick they actually were.

We had a guy in my platoon in basic who collapsed in the bathroom after he caught covid. In quarantine we had one guy who could barely stand and had to be rushed to the hospital one night. Neither of these guys were exactly athletes but they were young and fit enough to join.

Ukraine has been a Russian puppet basically since it became independent until 2014, its improved a lot since then, and if it does eventually join the EU that kind of thing will not be tolerated. Even if it did not change at all it is already leagues better than Russia.

Yes, including surgery and the whole 9 yards. That's a large part of why it was a disqualifying condition, they cost several times more to support than the average soldier.

Hence a special kind of idiot. Nowadays you can verify people online and see a hoe's twitter going back to 2018, cops don't do that. Or you can find a crackhead, or find a redlight district where police hesitate to respond to real calls, let alone set up their own stings. Either way there are so many 'safe' ways to do it only a retard would be caught texting a cop. Then again maybe that is why you're so afraid.

You need to be a unique kind of stupid to get arrested for hiring a prostitute, regardless of wealth. Same for weed honestly, the only people getting picked up for that are smoking in public or causing some kind of disturbance. Even if that wasn't the case you can easily move somewhere where both are legal.

High prices does mean scarcity, the supply cannot meet demand as effectively as it did before. Not that anyone is going hungry, like bread is also free if you're willing to stand in line at a church or homeless shelter in any developed country. Though poor countries might have people going hungry.

...Do you think hunter gatherer societies didn't have trauma or something? Societies where most women bury half of their own children?

Tanks are useless without a strong supply chain to maintain them, they move at a mile per gallon, or sometimes much less, so odds are they are parked near the front and just sitting around waiting for supplies to catch up.

You really have no idea how effective some local guys with rifles are against an invading army. Especially against Russia, which also operates with a draft with a ton of young men with questionable morale and experience. If any man in Ukraine does not want to fight they can quite literally just walk to occupied territory, it can be easily found to the North, South, and East. Even in Ukrainian propaganda and news reports you can see male civilians hiding in underground bunkers with women and children, I doubt they have enough arms to draft every male in that age even if they wanted to for the foreseeable future.

The Greek letter Omicron just the letter O. It is not written with a pupil nor was it ever, and the Greeks got it from the Phoenicians. The Jews also just happened to use the same letter, as well as the Romans, the Arabs, and ourselves. The variants are named according to the Greek alphabet in order. The only conspiracy with the letters is that they skipped Xi because it shares a name with a certain world leader.

'no possibility to download my profile before deleting it.' Does this guy think linkedin is fucking google sheets or something? Just from reading his article before even reading his comments I was not surprised he was banned at all.

Yeah I can't imagine a screeching drag queen changing hearts and minds of conservative America. It's difficult to parse how social change comes about it but it usually comes with the exact opposite of open social transgressions. It comes from convincing people that whatever you want isn't actually going to ruin society. Two men or two women loving each other is a pretty simple concept. Breaking social norms for no real purpose is only going to piss off people you will need to convince to accept you. Assuming acceptance is really the goal anyway.

Wait how many times have you caught covid now?

BootsAndBeards · 2021-12-17T05:48:19+00:00

I don't get how these relationships go on for so long. I read one post on some gay sub where a woman wanted to be nonbinary and made a post crying about how her straight boyfriend still saw her as a woman. I got banned for commenting that of course he saw her as a woman, he's straight. These people want to take hormones and undergo a milieu of surgeries to match a delusion and expect a partner to warp their whole sexuality around it too.

Virtually everyone in the military is just getting the jab, this is not having any real effect.

Most men here don't look any better than the women, and I know plenty of short guys who do well with women, guys who aren't even doing that well for themselves to be honest. What they should do is pick up some weights, work a on decent career, and get themselves out there. Most people end up with people similar to themselves. If a man doesn't like 'any of the women he can get' he needs to look inward and make himself into a man that is desired.

This entire website is basically dedicated subs that got ran off reddit, many of those happen to include right wing cesspits full of incels. Most of the commenters there are lonely young men on the fringes of society and lashing out at all of the perceived wrongs against them. That particular post reads almost as fetish material.

Just as many people live on the North side of Chicago as the South, yet I don't think people there would be robbed while hanging Christmas lights.

No shortage of people here would say there never were 5 million covid deaths either. Mask and quarantine mandates, early retirements, and market uncertainty are the cause of most of our economic troubles, deliberately throwing a minority in camps most people already did not like causes none of these issues. Besides most of the deaths were in the east and occupied countries, so the Germans were unaffected while the locals had much bigger problems to deal with.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-12-07T04:55:27+00:00

I don't think I buy that. Take hockey for instance, a lot of the same build, strength, and stamina requirements of football but radically different demographics of players. The Black kid who dreams of making it and becoming a famous NFL or NBA player is a trope for a reason. They see people like them who made it and they pursue it like crazy, its no wonder they are over represented in certain sports. Or the fact that Black people live mostly in urban areas, where Basketball as a sport dominates, or the South, where high school football teams can have stadiums that make colleges blush.

I recall reading how ancient Greek cities would specialize in certain weapons. It might start that one guy from Rhodes becomes a famous bowman, so it comes that Greeks elsewhere expect Rhodians to be expert Bowmen and Rhodians themselves idolize their local hero and strive to be like him. Cultures often adopt and reinforce stereotypes in a positive way.

A lot of asexuals just have weird fetishes that preclude having sex with real people.

Nah, communists and modern SWJs kind of hate each other. SWJs don't care about the means of production, they only care about race, while communists don't care about race, only the economics. So SWJs say communists are racists, and communists say SWJs just want Black CEOs. Leftist infighting is as old as leftism itself.

This romanticization is what leads to women trying to just became gay men.

I think you have it right, the only thing that really unites TQ is an ideal of validation and acceptance, usually from lost young people who finally get to have a cause. The 60s and 70s had racial and gender equality, the 90s and 00s had gay acceptance, the 10s and 20s have, whatever they're trying to figure out.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-24T21:45:33+00:00

Yeah, I live in a pretty small city in the Midwest. I’ve only met two trans people irl and no one who ever went by they/them or some other wierd stuff as far as I’m aware.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-24T21:17:37+00:00

Nah, I only ever see this kind of thing online, and I’m pretty sure most of my straight friends have no idea, even my gay friends don’t exactly follow ‘the discourse’ happening online. So it just isn’t relevant.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-18T16:58:32+00:00

I remember when I first found porn when I was 13 and quickly gravitated to the gay stuff. I assumed I was bi for a few months until I sat down and actually tried focusing on the women or watching some lesbians action. It was only then that my homosexuality was.... obvious, lol. I guess when I was young I didn't even think of the chance I might be gay. Not that I felt any shame for it, it was simply surprising.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-17T17:51:06+00:00

It sounds like he's well on his way

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-12T15:55:21+00:00

I think the article is insinuating that TQ+ are those living out a lifestyle choice calling themselves ace demi heteroromantic queer nonbinaries, all of which are 'lifestyle labels'. It says 3/4 are searching for meaning, and kind of implies that 1/4 aren't and are probably actual LGB people living normal gay lives.

All that said I don't believe nearly 1/3 millennials are buying into this crap. I'm assuming that's just bad polling data. A lot of these TQ people are terminally online and skew any kind of online poll.

I feel bad for young people. You're going to have a ton of people going through normal teenage angst and diagnosing it with an identity that can stay with them for years.

"I'm trying not to be a man, why won't men who like men sleep with me"

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-04T18:18:59+00:00

I don't think so, but it is very symbolic. It's a role reversal embodied for straight couples.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-01T22:36:39+00:00

A lot of them aren't, it isn't validating to settle with someone in the same boat.

BootsAndBeards · 2021-11-01T20:14:19+00:00

I could see it being real, some 'allies' really buy into this crap.
