    Why do you not feel cis? Maybe your identity lies in the non-binary spectrum.

    Yeah I don’t have a good answer for this. Not do I know how to get one. I’ve kind of always thought I really was a girl, just too scared to transition or admit it. But very recently I’m questioning that. I don’t necessarily think I’m a girl. But I know that being a “guy” just isn’t right either.

    I guess I’m not totally even sure what “non binary” even means. Like, I’ve always felt like it was a cop out kind of identity. And maybe that is just more residence that it resonates with me and is something scary or IDK. It’s hard for me to accept what non binary actually means, and especially how it relates to identifying as trans. Assuming the non binary label fits what I am, am I “trans”?

    I read that

    You could also frame it as liberals being on the side of religious freedom, though, which might include this shit

    No one is trying to take anyone’s freedom. But that freedom includes participating in coercive, sexist, patriarchal practices designed around oppression, which is all that religion is. It doesn’t make it a feel good or wholesome story. Religion is inherently bigoted because it enforces obedience through manipulation

    In any case, it’s sort of like, people decrying christianity at large as being shitty when realistically they just mean like, evangelicals, or catholics, or mormons, or jehovah’s witnesses, or maybe in some odd cases, quakers and mennonites

    No, ALL christianity is shitty. It’s inherently shitty because its entire purpose is to subjugate through threat of eternal damnation (let alone literal threats and violence). There is literally no other purpose. And this isn’t specific to christianity. It’s inherent to all religions


  • If your argument is that dresses are the same level of subjugation as hijabs, you’re either trolling or are completely ignorant. It’s not really even comparable in this day. There is basically no pressure for women to only wear dresses anymore. And it’s also not something that’s imposed by a religious rule. It was more of a general patriarchal society issue, which we also have issues with.

    In the same way that posts about kids donating their money to pay off others kids school lunch debt, or charities paying for cancer patients care are bad because they focus on the positive to that specific person instead of the shitty situation that causes them to be in that position in the first place, yes
