Does anyone know what rights they are missing? Anyone? Do they know? Cause so far all I see are privileges. Far as I know there is no right to self identify into another class of people. No right to force others to see your inner subjective self and validate same. No right to force yourself into spaces meant for another group. Not sure what rights these guys are missing.

Dear trans friends & trans
people I've never met, I'm
so sorry that you have to
spend so much of life's
precious energy pleading for
your rights. I don't believe
that I lose *anything* by
giving you your dignity, but
even if I did, I'd do it
because human rights are
human rights.

You mean the "Trans Deluxe Citizenship" that entitles you to cosmetic surgery on the taxpayer dime; to force your neologisms on fellow citizens and have them punished for insults, real or imagined, to your hallowed trans personage.

@AthenasWrench: “Have our alternative facts about trans people become ~~alternative~~ facts yet?”

@Deathling: “No! Believe harder! HARDER!!”

“entitles you to cosmetic surgery on the taxpayer dime”

LOL not in the States.

ps. Gonna have a nose correction next year, most likely, that’s as “cosmetic” a surgery, as any of the gender affirming ones. It will be done on taxpayer’s dime, because I live in Canada. Want to cut off my access to that one too?

...punished for insults, real or imagined, to your hallowed trans personage.

As opposed to the imagined insult of calling you a "ciswoman," tarnishing your hallowed TERF personage.

Don't pretend trans people are the snowflakes here, Wretch.

First, they came for the bigots: I did not speak out, because trans people never affected me in any way: least of all by ‘forcing’.

…and then they did not come for me: because I’m not an asshole.

If assholes such as the OPs were denied their right to be, I wouldn’t lose any sleep over it. But I bet you would.

Just like Ovashits.

They’re being all snowflakey - thus flaky - about the loss of their ‘Privilege’.

I fear for my trans friends being killed. Did Brianna Ghey havs the right to live? Choose carefully. A yes means all attacks on trans people must be condemned. Including stochastic terrorism such as calling them paedos and groomers. A no proves they don't have the right and thus kills the op's argument

I don’t think cis people are being collectively called groomers or are at risk of losing their rights.

No trans person is even asking for the government to pay for their treatment they are asking for access to the treatment. Period.

@Creativerealms #170328

Actually, I think the government ought to pay for trans peoples' gender affirming treatments. It's necessary medical care, and I think that is something that ought to be provided by the state.

@Spacewyrm #170335

Good luck getting that enacted in the U.S.

@Sasha #170348

It's true that it won't come easily, but I think it's worth fighting for.

@Spacewyrm #170335

I mean I am in favor of ALL healthcare being paid for by the government. All of it. That would include transition treatments. Which in such a situation wouldn't be a special right as everyone would be covered for anything.

But that isn't even what a being talked about here.

@Creativerealms #170353

But that isn't even what a being talked about here.

The transphobes quoted were talking about it though. I assumed they were in some non-US country with a real health care system.

@Spacewyrm #170350

All healthcare is worth fighting for. I'm certainly willing to pay more taxes for mental health treatment for the homeless and the wingnuts.
