  • When I say Jordan Peterson faux intellectual BS, this is exactly what I was talking about. You make huge leaps in logic, stringing together disconnected ideas from different areas of study to justify your goofy views. Like, there is no point in breaking down all your beliefs and why they are wrong because they’re barely coherent to begin with.

    Also, talking about trans women being envious of other women as being narcissistic, motivated by greed and “extroverted domination” is tied to outdated ideas that have done real harm to trans people. Sexologists who believed similar things have created and reinforced stigma, impacted policy that controls our lives. You don’t get to choose that history; you don’t get to choose for those ideas to not impact people; that’s not how it ever worked. Your ideas are politically charged, and you cannot choose otherwise.




  • Seriously, what are you trying to say? I have an interpretation of what you’re trying to get at, but it’s not a flattering one. It sounds like some Jordan Peterson faux intellectual BS about trying to disect the psychosexual meaning of wanting to be a woman.

    If I do understand correctly, then know that there is no logic behind wanting to be another gender. It’s not to satisfy some desire to be in a specific power dynamic; it just is because it is, no conscious choice or free will involved. Trans women want to be pretty women because they want to be women, and like basically everybody they also want to be attractive. It’s not deeper than that.

    If you really mean something else please enlighten me.
