Transgender teen leaves note on tumblr blaming Christian parents for suicide
929 replies, posted
There's a few things that have kept me going. First of all, I just don't like the idea of being dead. Like, I'll get there eventually and then stay that way forever, and that sucks. I'd rather keep existing, even if I did end up living a sad life. I'll still take that life by the balls and make it mine.
I also just don't want to be a tragedy. I don't want to end everything just because at this moment in time, things are scary, and difficult. Stories like the one this thread was made for are just so, so sad, and I just don't want to be that. I refuse to be.
why do all good, sound people have to start out in caged, genuinely oppressive, environments?? I'm at a loss for words. I hope this family changes their ways. I hope this woman's death is an eye-opener for any other families in the same situation.

Go back to Tumblr, Zillamaster.
Hey, I'm not transgender or gay, but if any of y'all need a friendly ear, I'm happy to listen, or even hang out if you're in the DFW area. I check my p.ms every few hours.

Shark bones, if this many people on a largely anonymous forum are being this kind, then that is proof that there are many good people out there.
Never give up.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;46825397]theres a thread for it and it isnt this one[/QUOTE]
I'm sure there's a nicer way of wording that, especially in a thread with this topic.
Things like this are why I've not come out yet... I just don't know if my parents will accept me if they knew.

Yeah seriously, there are people out there that really do care.
Like for me personally, as I prepare to be homeless on the other side of the country, I am constantly blown away by the [I]ludicrous[/I] kindness that has been shown to me, that I can't even comprehend.

[QUOTE=TheCreeper;46823161]Comment from Mothers Facebook. Even after her death they still fail to recognize their child for what she wanted to be; espcially given its the reason for her death. Fucking disrespctful parients.

Batshit insane as you can see.[/QUOTE]
Holy shit the way she's wording it is as if she didn't kill herself and it was some accident. Fuck those parents.
Hey Swebonny, I'm trying to make sense of the term "SJW marxist agenda," but maybe I haven't been reading enough tumblr comment threads or something, because I have honestly never even heard of that term until reading NotYou3's post:
[QUOTE=NotYou3;46823665]another fucked up mental patient suicided. owned retard. drawin award candidate right here.
get therapy for ur fucking screwed up mental disorder if u think ur a girl trapped in a boys body there is literally something wrong with your brain and you need mental help
the more "serious trannies" that kill themselves the better.
that goes for tranny sympathisers too.
transgender what a fuckin joke
[highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("Enforcing SJW marxist agenda." - Swebonny))[/highlight][/QUOTE]
I found one definition on [URL="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=SJW"]Urban Dictionary[/URL] and another one on [URL="http://www.rooshv.com/what-is-a-social-justice-warrior-sjw"]some guy's blog[/URL]. The Urban Dictionary definition says the banned poster is someone who was jumping on the bandwagon and repeating points of the popular opinion in this thread. So are you saying the popular opinion at Facepunch is that it's best for transgenders to kill themselves? Then, I'm relieved that I rarely read the threads here! The blog post in the second link says an SJW Marxist is one that is an extremist in regards to feminism, left wing politics, and political correctness. I think that one is a debatable claim, but it definitely doesn't fit NotYou3's post, I think we can all agree with that. He would have to had to been voicing himself in a much different manner (sympathetic to LGBT people, NOT using politically incorrect terms, etc.)
It would be reasonable if you temporarily banned him because you thought he was being a jerk in the thread. Doesn't that happen on a regular basis here - people being jerks? But, instead you permabanned him for some dubious reason. I'm scratching my head. Maybe you just don't like him personally? How about you just give the guy a call and settle it in private? Why throw around terms like "SJW marxist agenda"? Did you just want to slap him around in a public setting?

everybody needs a support network, and I'll be damned if I am not going to help someone who needs it. If you need to vent or need advice, especially if you're considering suicide, don't go away, talk to people. Maybe not us, there's plenty of subreddits like [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/[/url] for example. It's not annoying.

Why do you want to be a woman when (I assume) you're attracted to women? If it's some sort of kink, surely you'd get more pleasure boning the girl than scissoring her with a fake vanny.

Gender =/= sexuality.
Oh wait I forgot you're a troll, nvm.
No one should commit suicide. i don't care what cards life plays on you. It's a very selfish act, I bet she would have felt different in a couple of years..
“My death needs to mean something. My death needs to be counted in the number of transgender people who commit suicide this year. I want someone to look at that number and say “that’s f***ed up” and fix it. Fix society. Please.”
Saying your death needs to mean something is selfish, why the fuck wouldn't you try to change anything rather than sit and bitch about who you are and then kill yourself. She did absolutely nothing for transgendered people except make everyone look at her. That's selfish

Selfish act why? Did she owe anything to anybody? Leelah didn't need to be thankful to her parents for being alive looking at how did they threat her.

do your cards also include abysmal terminal illnesses or being rejected by your family, leaving you with literally nothing
Don't know if I'm being a dick but:
1) if your parents don't love you for who you are they're doing it wrong
2) if you're going to kill yourself do it in a way which doesn't cause someone else to kill you. That farmer has to live with that for the rest of his life now.

Maybe she was just wandering around feeling lost and she saw the vehicle as her opportunity to die on a quick and reliable way. You don't have many options when you feel suicidal and are so young.
I feel sorry that this individual felt so trapped that they thought suicide was the solution to their problems. Suicide is a permanent fix to a temporary problem.

No their a ton of options even if you are young that do not need someone else to have to deal with that.

the best way to respond to bigotry is with reason and argument, nothing more and nothing less. [/QUOTE]
No. The correct response to bigotry is complete and total silence. They don't exist. Their opinions don't exist.
Reason and logic do not work on someone who's hating on X for no real reason. Bigotry is, by definition, an irrational frame of mind. You cannot rationalize with the irrational, they just block it out.
So give them the cold shoulder instead.

apathy also does nothing to fix an issue. promoting awareness so others can learn does
