You are the one moving the goalpost. We are talking about fear, not 5 year olds. Your response seems to suggest that you believe I had fear of Princess Bob due to my five-year-old, but I don’t have fear due to my current 28 year old. Does this mean I’m no longer transphobic? Am I also ketchup-phobic? I think you are like Tom Cruise…you may be phobic-phobic. I think you may be truthphobic.
You have stated that if you had a 5 year old daughter, you would purposely avoid Princess Bob. If you're at a picnic with a hypothetical 5 year old daughter, do you purposely avoid all people putting ketchup on hot dogs? Or, do you let your daughter mingle with them? Both things, a man wearing a dress and putting ketchup on a hot dog, you disapprove of. But if you would let your daughter interact with the ketchup eaters, why not Princess Bob? Answer this, and you'll have what you fear about Bob. You probably don't want your 28 year old mingling with Princess Bob either. But as an adult, you have a lot less influence and no control over your grown son than you would a 5 year old.
My daughter wants nothing to do with heathens who put ketchup on a coney, and honestly I am not sure I know a single person who does that. I don’t have to avoid them, they don’t exist in my bubble. But you continue to go off topic…which is the notion that dislikes=fear. It does not!……….prove me wrong! I could care less if my 28 year old son mingles with Princess Bob…I am not responsible for him any longer. You just don’t seem to get the gist of the discussion here.
What really belongs on a hot dog is green chili sauce and salsa. Nothing beats a Sonoran dog in my opinion. You're avoiding again. Don't have to answer about ketchup hot dog people because they don't exist in your world. And you know if they did exist, people who put ketchup on hot dogs are nothing to fear, and nothing to protect your kid from. And once you realize this, you begin to understand it's not just the behavior of Princess Bob that you disapprove of. You fear him too.
You make a very good point. Can you imagine working that hard with the sole objective to tear someone down. When put this way, it’s a real bad look. I doubt these libbies even realize how bad it looks.
My biggest take away from this 30 pages is how some people like to bastardized the English language. It’s like the term, pro-choice. You’re not pro-choice, you’re pro abortion. Pro choice doesn’t mean anything. It’s an incomplete sentence. Why are you hiding behind a bastardization of the English language. Stand strong for your beliefs. Same thing with x-phobia. Everything has to be some kind of fear thing. And while I’m on the rant, it seems like 95% of our current population doesn’t understand what the term fascist means. Suddenly, that term means somebody who doesn’t agree with you. Pretty sad.
While the term bigot might have racist connotations, just the term bigot does not denote racism. There are other forms of bigotry. I contend anyone who purposely chooses not to interact with someone based on an outward appearance alone is being bigoted against said appearance. They may even have good reason, such as they have kids with them and the appearance isn't age appropriate. Appearance may also go along with actions as a good reason to avoid someone or a group. For example, I would avoid a group of white hooded people spouting antisemitic slogans. Especially since my family is Jewish. In these cases, there is legitimate fear. As linked earlier, kids exposed to sexuality early may develop issues with sexuality later in life. And as someone of Jewish decent, I do fear interacting with a KKK group. Now I ask again, what's the fear behind refusing to interact with Princess Bob? If you're afraid of a man in a dress, his far too you go to avoid it? Can't watch Star Trek because the episode might contain dress uniforms? Bosom Buddies reruns off limits? Men in kilts, so no Scottish Rights parade? And again, what really is there to fear from Princess Bob?
Research indicates that transgender people are somewhat more likely to have a psychiatric diagnosis. The most common are anxiety and depression.Oct 10, 2021 Cleveland Clinic Transgender: Gender Dysphoria and Ensuring Mental Health
And you can diagnose it on sight without even talking to the person? Can you diagnose non trans with mental health issues on sight too?
Dude, you’re not interested in understanding anyone. You have repeatedly shown that your aim is to trash those who disagree with you. You have zero support from your buds and yet you continue with name calling. I thought you would have bowed out like two days ago.
I figured you out. You fear the definition of fear, so you ignore it and make up your own. You are phobophobic. {hugs}. No one here is judging you.
I'm attempting to understand why anyone would fear a man in a Fairy Godmother dress working at a Disney store. You claim it's because he's more prone to mental illness as a trans? Maybe true, but correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Disney runs background checks on employees. And I know the train their forward facing employees plenty before allowing them out on their own. Disney's purpose is also to give your family lifetime, happy memories while bleeding your wallet dry. Having an employee with a mental illness that scars a child for life goes against all of Disney's goals. Is Princess Bob really that much of a threat? It's not that I'm not trying to understand. It's I don't understand, and you're side is doing a poor side explaining the fear Princess Bob represents. Potential mental illness? Same is true for all Disney employees, and while no system is perfect, Disney isn't going to try and make sure all their forward facing employees act appropriately.
Cat, multiple people on this thread have tried to make you understand. The reason you “don’t understand” is because you’ve warped the English language, which has made it impossible for you to comprehend that just because a person doesn’t approve of the trans lifestyle, that does not mean that person fears a trans. You are so caught up in your concept of fear, that you can’t see the forest through the trees. IMO, I think you do understand that this issue has nothing to do with fear, and you are at this point just trolling to try to get this thread to as many pages as your Jonas Brother’s FANtasy page. Which, by the way, I love. keep it up.
The entire objective of this thread was to tear people down. And it wasn’t started by a “libbie.” Y’all keep picking on trans people like depraved shit heads - we’ll keep winning elections. Cheers
I'm pro-choice. I'm also anti-abortion. "Choice" means exactly what it says, as in the choice to abort, or not abort, decided upon by the individual, not the government. It sounds as if you don't know what "choice," means.
I know the difference between disapprove and bigotry. You disapprove of people putting ketchup on hot dogs. Would you actively prevent a child from interacting with someone who put ketchup on a hot dog? If no, than that not bigotry. You have admitted you would avoid Pricess Bob. That's more than just disapproval. That's bigotry. Figure out why you would avoid him, and you'll understand what you are scared of. I admit, I'd avoid a KKK rally. Why? Because as someone of Jewish decent, I'd fear for my safety and the safety of my family. But Princess Bob working at Disney? Doesn't scare me at all.
