Yet another GAF thread - I still haven't got over it :( (No spergfits allowed)

[Shadow Mod]

That entire thread contains the worst of gaf:

- mtf transsexual with something up her butt
- dudes turning something that is as sexless as possible into about a sexual discussion
- "she did it for publicity" yes, Angelina Jolie Pitt, one of the most famous people in the modern world, had her breasts removed and reconstructed for the publicity

You forgot she's a hypochondriac.

If black people were to move in around here, I would immediately flight to the furthest non black neighborhood. It's the only way to be sure.

[Himu]

I always cringe when I read cisman or ciswoman. I like to think I am supportive when it comes to the trans community but really? I understand the need to belong and all but throwing around cis all the time always seems like a thinly veiled attempt at labeling that you'd think the trans community deals with and hates themselves.

I hate it at as well. It is akin to the gay community and "straights". You won't see me using Cis, ever, or at least in that context. These people are completely ruining the very movement they say they're fighting for with their aggressive stance that just confuses the shit out of people. Not that anger doesn't help in the cause of equality, but fuck. Why in a thread about breast cancer? We are already considered a joke by many. Now we are considered a joke and tight asses. Fuck.

It's laying an extra layer of complexity to something most people aren't even familiar with, let alone understand.  I'll call people whatever they prefer me to call them.  Him, her, no skin off my back.  It's not even extra syllables.  Seems to have worked so far.

[Shadow Mod]

Platy should have just been banned for that ridiculous derail.

[Himu]

Within the gay community there's some animosity towards straight people. Being a part of lgbt community for a few years, I've been exposed to a lot of stuff like "fucking straights" in a poisonous, callous manner. It started out as an insult. Also see "baby havers". It's in the line of minority "we're not accepted so let's marginalize and pretend we're better" thing.

Never mind that most people don't even know what CIS means, whereas straight is a word in common use. So when you call someone cis, then they'll be like,"WTF is that?" and then you have to explain it and shit, rather than getting to your main point. It creates an us vs them thing, which is largely unnecessary when you're trying to be seen as fucking human.

[Don Flamenco]

no matter what way you self-identify, your fellow people will include hate for the "opposition" as a part of their self-definition.   

[brob]

Isn't communication about communicating? Like, no one's gonna go around calling all these bitches cis unless it's to make a distinction. Like some transwoman talking about the lack of red tape involved in elective surgery for ciswomen, while complaining about the amount transwomen have to go through. I don't see a problem with words that help a conversation be more specific.

The alternative is to use phrases like "naturally born women" or "women not suffering from gender dimorphism" or whatevs. And those seem much more loaded.

[Himu]

The problem is that transsexuality is a complicated thing that many psychologists and geneticists and sociologists are trying to figure out. Like Contra said, 'cis' adds a layer of complexity to something most people don't even understand to begin with. Never mind the fact that on the internet today, people use 'cis' within a passive aggressive stance i.e. "you don't understand because you're a cis white male", all it's going to do is garner confusion and annoyance. If people used cis responsibly, I wouldn't have a beef.

[Phoenix Dark]

Straight isn't really derogatory in any way though. I've heard the term "breeder" used to denigrate straight people, but never "straight."

If someone called me "straight" in an attempt to insult me, I'd react like this

[Himu]

My point isn't that people use straight as an insult. People don't use cis as an insult either. It is often used to divide, usually in unnecessary circumstance.

[Himu]

I prefer gender variant and non-gender variant. It's self explanatory, it doesn't create hostility, it's a neutral term, it doesn't require explanation like 'cis'.

[Himu]

Well, whatever word people want to use. People like Platy are making my life even harder.

[brob]

people being passive-aggressive on a internet message board really doesn't seem like a good reason to do anything. I don't read the transgaf thread so I dunno what they get up to or how they formulate themselves, but whenever I hear someone use phrases like 'cis' it's usually very useful because it allows a distinction between trans and cis. Then again, I don't make a habit out of discussing shit on the internet. Because why the fuck would anyone?

[Himu]

Biz, you've shaved your legs. You know the wonder of nice cool, clean sheets on your legs after a wonderful shave.

Buy some skinny jeans from the women's rack and report back.

[Phoenix Dark]

I propose cismen/women be called OGs, and transgendered men and women be called young bloods

[Himu]

Except that means you get the fancy title whereas I just become the non-[fancy title]. I'm proposing we both get them, otherwise we in the majority are going to just call ourselves the normal ones.

When you're talking about a group that's < 1% of the population, it sounds ridiculous to give some title to the other 99.x%.

Man, woman, transman, transwoman. Easy enough once you get rid of the stigma on the trans prefix.

This is pretty perfect.  It's going to take a while (the trans people I know hate anyone using the word in public lest they get their ass kicked in the bathroom) but yeah.

If you flaunt it too openly, you can still get clipped, Icarus.

You're right. Which is why we will all forget this past this page.

I have two alt accounts at the ready.  I'll sell one for $5,000.

[Himu]

Try not to behave how you did in the past, Glen. I think part of the reason I'm not banned yet is because I make long, elaborate, detailed posts and yet don't post much. I'm in my SA posting mode while at gaf.

[Don Flamenco]

i tried using someone's account and it put them in some weird non-member, but not banned purgatory where they couldn't do anything members can do, except log in. 

i just wanna participate in the buy/sell/trade thread, i had a good rep there  :'(

If you posted in any thread on this forum other than this one, you might know that it's something of a running gag from our politics thread that  JayDubya would traditionally forget/ignore any rebuttals to his arguments  that were posted on a previous page once the discussion turned over into a new page.

Can someone parse what he was trying to say? Or is that a proverb that escapes my limited English knowledge?

[Rahxephon91]

Maybe I will go ahead and register an alt, since Himu is getting away with it.

Doesn't mean you will.

Re: Platy in the trans thread,

Wow, I had no idea "cis-privilege" was a playable card. That's, like, double the cringe factor. Is he trans to begin with?

[Himu]

Yes she is.
