People. You are welcomed. Except you, invisible man. You're not allowed. But the rest of you, yeah, you're allowed here. edit: reading over this^, all I can think of was reading it out as Cave Johnson. I need to stop playing portal.
[url]http://dearcispeople.tumblr.com/[/url] A number of these seem to be somewhat pretentious.
A lot of people think being mislabelled gives them the right to be a pretentious cow about it. It just makes you look like a cunt instead of explaining things more nicely, and sure it's annoying and upsetting being mislabelled but going bitch-mode over it wont solve anything.

I'm going through that tumblr, I do agree with Chickens with most of these, but [url]http://dearcispeople.tumblr.com/post/24127036748/you-need-to-understand-that-even-if-im-not-being[/url] pretty much speaks for itself. I know that I'm in the same situation. :c

[QUOTE=l l;37783423]This is another reason I hate the term cis. People use it like it's derogatory.[/QUOTE] Exactly. It's almost like transgenders use it as a retaliation of having words used against them
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;37783253][URL]http://dearcispeople.tumblr.com/[/URL] A number of these seem to be somewhat pretentious.[/QUOTE] Almost all of them are pretentious. It's like people subconsciously segregate people, and because these people are transgendered they're different from normal people, when really the people in that tumblr are assholes regardless of their situation. [editline]25th September 2012[/editline] [url]http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4w2fxol3J1rr0u35o1_500.jpg[/url] hahaha this is just fucking atrocious I'm sorry
We seem to like being angry about words ;~;
Hello dudes and dudettes, I'm back for a bit (for those who remember me, a lot of people here seem new now in such a short time I was gone!)
[QUOTE=VIOLATION_SNG;37783807]We seem to like being angry about words ;~;[/QUOTE] I'm not angry, just disappointed that there's people who call themselves oppressed for being trans when it's really just cause they're such miserable cunts. Maybe if they didn't lash out at people who were cis (just for being cis) they'd fit in a bit better.
[QUOTE=VIOLATION_SNG;37783807]We seem to like being angry about words ;~;[/QUOTE] Sure do! Personally I only like the words "trans", "cis" or what have you so I know peoples "situation" and can understand better. Other than that, we're all people. Labeling is unnecessary. [editline]24th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=CheeseMan;37783554] [url]http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4w2fxol3J1rr0u35o1_500.jpg[/url] hahaha this is just fucking atrocious I'm sorry[/QUOTE] Yeeaah I would probably take offense at that. Even if "Cis doesn't = cis scum, hurr durr", the way they phrased it made it sound like they think all cis are scum. That's how that phrase is usually used here. If I walked into a room and yelled "Die gay scum" (I only use gay as a random example, no offense to any gay people), I'm rather sure all the gay people in the room would be offended, not just ones who know I dislike them personally.
I feel we're more "opressed" by the people who dont understand us rather than just normal people.
It's not oppression if they don't understand, and these people calling oppression and getting up their own arses about it instead of explaining it certainly isn't changing anything, it's just making more trans people look like pretentious twats.

words *ducks* *quack*
Might aswell call them a muggle :v:
:/ While a lot of that is stupid and just really ugh, nobody can act like its not annoying explaining things to people over and over and getting a bigoted response back most of the time. People aren't miserable cunts for being tired of a society that for a large part pretends they don't exist. [editline]24th September 2012[/editline] I mean I totally agree that getting misgendered by accident and then the person acting like you've killed someone is stupid but it's not totally hard to understand how one might react that way.
To be fair some of these are obviously submitted to try and sabotage the transgender movement [url=http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3oq58xMSg1rr0u35o1_500.jpg]because really[/url]

To be honest though, a lot of those are just very frusturated complaints from expierencing that kind of transphobic bullshit in their lives. I dobt blame them for being a little mad
[QUOTE=Jawyen;37784513]What?![/QUOTE] Yeah it's a pretty awful tumblr.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;37784551]Yeah it's a pretty awful tumblr.[/QUOTE] Not really :/
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;37784551]Yeah it's a pretty awful tumblr.[/QUOTE] I wonder what kind of the life the person who manages it leads. [QUOTE=Skelmech;37784569]Not really :/[/QUOTE] :rolleyes:
[QUOTE=l l;37784595]:rolleyes:[/QUOTE] Go pm insult people in the dota thread for rating you disagree more please.
[QUOTE=Skelmech;37784620]Go pm insult people in the dota thread for rating you disagree more please.[/QUOTE]Now if you look to your left ladies and gentleman you'll see some ad hominems out in the wild, remarkable creatures aren't they? Tbh this thread needs a revamp and people need to leave, so much drama in here that none of the actual people who want/need help can't ask for it because problems arise every other hour. (it's unfortunate because the nice people are the ones who volunteer to leave instead of the ones who are the problems)
[QUOTE=Skelmech;37784569]Not really :/[/QUOTE] The fact it allows shit as insane as this to be posted; [img]http://i.imgur.com/PcEXj.jpg[/img] pretty much discredits it as a whole.
[QUOTE=l l;37784595]I wonder what kind of the life the person who manages it leads. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE] To be fair, the person who runs it seems pretty swell. In fact, they've said they're discontinuing running the tumblr because they're just completely ashamed of a lot of the entries. Idk why I've been reading it so far but honestly she's got a ton of shit, she tried to make a counterpart for Dear Cis People called Dear Trans* People (which was supposed to be a place where cis people could ask questions and be supportative) and tons of trans people literally called her "cissexist scum" and a few of them told her to kill himself.
