Long leap...

Is food delivery validating those who are scared to leave their homes. Condom distribution doesn't validate promiscuity. I'm pretty sure a transgendered person knows they are transgendered... no validation required.

I self identify as someone who refuses to get outraged about something that has no effect on my life.

Could you imagine an anorexic being told, yes you are hugely fat. GO run 5 miles. You shouldn't eat today, I TOTALLY agree with you.

If any MD gave that advice? They'd be in jail.
No, it really doesn’t affect you. At. All.

What’s it like to be so triggered by a metal box in a bathroom, I wonder? Can you imagine living like that? Miserable people.

Any sane person would know that that person has more problems than being transgendered... Plenty of straight people with anger issues. Plenty videos of non-transgendered individuals throwing stupid hissy fits.

The vast majority of the LGBTQ population aren't that nutz nor need validation.

Would you like me to post a white supremacist being violent and say all white people are racists... of course not.

Try again. Long leap... its actually a play on emotional reasoning which is a weak argument.

I pissed myself laughing. Really, I peed a little.

It affects everyone by perpetuating the lie that men get periods.

It's not good for society to keep pretending lies are truths. It changes reality.

For those saying this has no affect on anyone. Do you believe changing societal norms and priorities have no affect on individuals? That we should not concern ourselves with laws and policies and standards being passed that seem useless or frivolous or unimportant especially when there are greater needs and concerns elsewhere.
Shouldn't lawsuits and legislation actually address a significant need.
