I am old school in this manner and am not perfect by any means. But you are correct, we should be using the nicer and more updated terms in general and I try to with my son but some things you fall back upon habit. For instance if my friend makes a dumb joke, I'd respond with "That's f**king gay", not intended as malice.


Using "gay" as a derogatory label is not "oldschool" or retro.... its ignorant. My dad is 70, my grandfather is 92. both of them can talk to their friends and family and define something as lame without calling it "gay".

the fact that you wont do it public just makes you a closet homophobic ignoramous. that doesnt make it better.

So you post about another transgendered person committing suicide and then go on to say that you would physically abuse your kid if he ever told you he identified as a girl....

maybe if we had less fathers like you transgendered kids wouldnt kill themselves as often. maybe if there was more unconditional love and less "ill slap him silly" these kids would be ok.

I have multiple degrees from world renown institutions, am a Director with the federal government, which if you don't know is management level right below the executive level, make a very good income, have multiple investment properties, run my own business and most importantly have plenty of real life friends; not Internet chat forum friends. I am surprised that I even spend as much time on this forum as I do. It used to be fun for me but not so much anymore with all the close-mindedness, hatred, bigotry being displayed by the same people that I used to respect.


Yet you are the one who comes here to tell us American how to live our live when you are in fact no even American and have very little idea how life is like in this country. It isn't so fun when other people do that to you does it? I know why you come to this thread, to say the very thing that you have no balls to say to your black bros in person, or your gay friends in person.

Also, I would take your bet on accomplishment.


I'm just citing my views, backed up with videos by people much smarter and more articulate than I am. The reason why I have to boast some of my accomplishments and lifestyle is because I'm constantly being attacked being called a racist, garbage human being etc. I don't have to put up with that.


much more articulate then you? you posted videos by the same people who cheered for whites enforcing slavery.... thats articulate to you?

So ask yourself why trans have a high suicide rate and then a better solution would appear.

How about you cut to the root of the issue by not endorsing the trans movement? You are looking for sources to blame rather than treating the root cause.

12 times more likely to commit suicide if you are a dentist... is being a dentist a mental disorder?

and again, maybe if father like you werent of the mindset they should slap their kids silly for being trans they wouldnt be killing themselves at such an alarming rate.

there is one, unanimous, undebated #1 reason people kill themselves, and its not mental disorder, its depression. i know my dad beating me for being trans might depress me a bit

"dont become trans in the first place" sounds great. but these are people who have already made this decision. maybe we dont have to treat them like crap, beat them up, bully them, etc...

and the "left" argument is nonsense. im not a democrat, ive rarely voted democrat, i certainly didnt vote for hillary and i dont identify with may democratic party lines.

i guess... i dont really use "slap him silly" as a figutre of speech but then again i tend not to throw around racist and homophobic slurs because they are old fashioned either.

i wouldnt be so sure your kid wouldnt "switch sides" there wouldnt be huge groups, churches, and website dedicated to "praying the gay away" and praying the trans out of your kid" if it were that simple.

but honestly id be more worried that your kid might committ a hate crime.

Because there is no issue with the "root cause". This is America and people are free to talk, dress, indentiy however they like. no laws are broken and no one else rights are being infringed on.

Homosexuals also have a higher susicide rate then straight people. since you have told us you do believe this is genetic, and not a choice, how do we fix the root cause there? euthanize all gays?

How about we just treant transgendered as humans, and not bully/beat up/insult them instead?

the root cause isnt their choice, the root cause is they are being abused by the general public. you abuse any group... transgendered, striaght, whatever they are going to have a high suicide rate

they also wouldnt have suggered through hundreds of years of slavery. Also how many races and countries have migrated to the US without slavery since? you dont think they could have figured it out by now?

Don’t expect a response that acknowledges any the points you raise Prokorov - 13th will simply pivot away from acknowledging the faults in his Neanderthal logic & post a link to a video with some beta bitch moron who’s just as infantile as he is

But honestly, is anyone truly surprised that 13th is triggered by getting labeled as a low-brow morally depraved waste of life when the dirty man he idolizes rants on twitter, fornicates with prostitutes, and fires anyone who disagrees with him? If it looks like a beta, & quacks like a snowflake, it’s probably 13th deflecting and pivoting from something stupid

My belief is that being gay is not a choice, but being trans is. If you choose to live a stupid life, then accept the consequences. It's not my fault or responsibility for you choosing to become an idiot. Why should I bend over backwards to satisfy your strange abnormal needs? This is why I side 100% with Jordan Peterson when he balked at the bill that makes us change our language of speech, something that has never been done before. I don't even hate the transgender, I feel sorry for them. I only hate the fact that they are playing the victim and blaming innocent citizens that have absolutely nothing to do with this for their misery rather than looking back on who and how they came upon making their ridiculous decision.

I don't know about what causes high suicide rates for dentists so cannot comment on that matter.

Fyi, slavery has historically been widespread in Africa and still continue today in some countries. I'm not saying that it's a good thing and think it should be abolished throughout since the beginning of time. Just stating that it's one of the ugly aspects of civilization.

1) So you condone people Beating and discriminating against and abusing transgendered people because they made a "stupid" choice? its one thing if you don't want to embrace them with open arrms, is it also ok to discriminate and abuse anyone who makes any stupid chioce in life? id think alot of people have done that at one time or another.... but if you are condoning violence against them because you dont agree with their choice you are just a horrible person.

2) If "being gay" is the root cause for the increase rate of suicides among gays vs. straights how would you fix the root cause? are you ok with people abusing gays or is that bad because they "cant help being gay"

3) They ARE the victim. no one has the right to abuse,bully, or be violent against anyone else. not in this country at least. maybe you disagree with their choice. doesnt mean that it is open season to abuse them.

Posts that pivot away from the topic discussed not only fail to contribute to the dialogue, but also expose the mental fragility of the poster. Only a beta changes the topic when triggered- shame. I bet you’re just as pathetic in real life as you appear on this forum
