I find it hard to not see trans as mental illness...

I want to be empathetic and compassionate about your tranny obsession. Help me build a better understanding of it.

How old were you when your tranny obsession began? Are they a constant presence in your thoughts? Are you worried that exploring your feminine side will result in a domino effect that leads to you trying on your wife's dresses and panties and then an anonymous profile on a tranny-dating app?

I'll sit back and listen.

You got the wrong guy.   But you go ahead with your make believe. You need it.

If you're not interested in trannies, why are you in this thread?

I'm here to explore the MAGA mindset of tranny obsession. Trannies likely don't want MAGAs to obsess over them the way they do! Do you look up trannies online to take in their hair colors?

Perhaps the thread title here should be "I find it hard not to see trans obsession as a mental illness."

Perhaps you should get some therapy for your trans obsession. It's neither healthy nor normal to spend so much time obsessing about trannies.

In all fairness he is in every thread, even if what he posts makes no sense, nor has any relevance to the discussion. Although it seems he spends more of his time here on the subject of trannies than anything else 

That said, I don't get his and the others obsession about trannies. It is a small segment of the LGBTQ community (1-2% at best) and if you look at issues most Americans are interested and concerned with it is not about transgender folks.

Exactly, and here we have a 6-year-old thread with 18 pages of MAGAs obsessing over trannies, with HT adding like 30 posts and lots of trans videos to fuel their obsession.

[Grace Under Pressure 119]

They're the easiest outgroup to leverage, that's why. You'd bring it up 24/7 too if it was such a "winner" with your base, and unfortunately among the mainstream too. Be honest, they're extremely different and they have a high "ick" factor in suburbia. 99% of mainstream America doesn't resonate with this.

It is fair to say that MAGA has co-opted "hating" them as hard as they do because simply tolerating them doesn't provide enough differentiation. If you're MAGA, you have to despise them, because even the left just wants them to be themselves and not do the cross-sports thing.

Rusty doesn't have daughters, and his wife is an uber left wing cat lady, so he doesn't understand why fathers and husbands would want to protect the females in their lives from men invading women's safe spaces and sports.

Yup, like fish in a barrel. Many angles to this issue are brutal for Dem candidates. Bathrooms and sports, game over. 

They better figure out how to message better on this or come election time there's going to be 30 "tranny" threads on the first page.

So your trans obsession goes even deeper to include them going to the bathroom, never mind that 93.6 percent of sex abusers are men, that 57.5 percent of them are white and fewer than 1 percent of them are trans.

https://www.ussc.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/research-and-publications/quick-facts/Sexual_Abuse_FY21.pdf

While there is some credibility over your concern about trannies going into women's bathrooms and touching kids and trans women playing in women's sports, that concern falls squarely into the category of MAGA hypercatastrophizing.

1.) More than 99 percent of trannies are not sex abusers.

2.) NCAA President Charlie Baker said in December 2024 that out of 500,000 college athletes, there were only 10 trannies, making up less than 0.002 percent.

So if you're going to obsess over an issue that's a huge threat to society, perhaps you should obsess over hunger, illiteracy, crime and other major issues instead of obsessing over an issue whose percentages come with one or two numbers on the right side of the decimal.

HTH.

Just so I understand:  I type one sentence (which clearly hit the mark), you spend the next 10 minutes researching the interwebs, and I'm the one with the obsession?

Oh, and I didn't say bathrooms.  I said safe spaces.  Locker rooms, saunas, prisons, etc.  I'm ambivalent about bathrooms.  But reading was never your strong suit when making a center-right argument.

I merely pointed out some statistics that prove that your tranny obsession is deeply disproportionate to the issue at hand. 

Why allow trannies to take up so much head space when their threat to society is infinitesimal, at most?

They're overwhelming going in bathrooms to touch kids, and tranny participation in women's sports is 0.002 percent.

Meanwhile, 21 percent of U.S. adults can't read, and 13.5 percent of Americans struggle to put food on the table.

The only explanation here is that you either are a closeted tranny or are secretly attracted to them.

Maybe both!

Whatever the number is for sports, each one of them negatively impacts the girls on his team, district, region, state, and maybe national competition.  So, the impact far outweighs the individual man.

Let's try a thought experiment:

Lefty Rusty:  The number of trannies in [insert area] is teeny tiny, why do you care?#@!

Me:  Fine, if it is so small, let's just not let them in [insert area].  Problem solved with minimal impact.

Your trans obsession is way disproportionate to the issue. I would rather a trans woman take a whiz in a stall of the ladies bathroom than come into the men's room all gussied up, hike up a skirt and whiz into a urinal.

Obviously, this is what you want ...

Seeing as you are oh so obsessed and concerned with where trannies urinate, perhaps you should follow your calling and offer up your services as a pecker checker at your local mall. That way you can do your part to address this issue as the tranny revolution continues to claw and maul the fabric of American society.

It's pretty clear that we need the federal government to stop helping poor people altogether and redirect $1 trillion to equip every women's restroom in America with the Schlonginator 5000 - no doubt manufactured by one of Trump's rich buddies - to detect and deter anything with a pecker from entering. Sirens and whirling red lights would go off, and the Peemus Police would be summoned to haul off the offending tranny and transport it federally funded reprogramming camps, from which they would emerge as paranoid, threatened, angry, middle-aged white men you can relate to and make America betterer.

Now that's some winning right there!
