Yes, imagine as a young child feeling you are not the same as everyone else. Having to subsequently repress these feelings in order to “fit in.”

----------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a school of thought which says that confused young children if left alone overcome their feelings and get on with life, but the involvement of specialists at young ages confuses the issue and creates problems.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And some don't then proceed to get called weird and ostracised for apparently having mental health disorders then top themselves.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Many who have operations also top themselves.

Homosexuality is an interesting debate because those who disagree with it, whether that be on moral grounds or religious etc, have basically been told that their view no longer counts.

Whilst I don't have any issue with it personally, I do find it odd that this view has now been given an objective status.

I think of it like the burka (and no, not in context) but whilst i disagree with its use, I can respect the wishes of those who uphold it.

Why isn't homosexuality treated in the same light?

Whether we like it or not
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think increasingly the view is "you must like it or else".

I asked a question once thatbif I was an employer and interviewed for a post and gave it to the best candidate who happened to he gay amd i treates that person same as everyine else but I didn't like the idea of being gay myself was I homophobic. The unanimous response was yes.

I don't see why but that is the case these days
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I that by not liking it, you are by definition homophobic. But you are entitled to your opinion. There is only a problem if you discriminate against the person
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't see it as homophobia, just as not liking the burkha isn't racist.

To each their own is the mantra.

The way its going if you don't sleep with a bloke you are homophobic.

My point was related (back) to the US, and the victimisation of various minorities. Which the election result appears to have amplified.

On some topics you are right. In regards to homosexuality there is no rational reason to disagree with it.

This view is no different to stretty really

This was a good conversation earlier but somehow descended into a bit of a farce from some posters.

Defining transgender entirely as a mental disorder, or referring to trans people as simply “weird,” much like homosexuality used to be, hardly demonstrates acceptance.
==================

And?

Good game folks.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

you do not have to accept any old crap, contrary to your beliefs.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is true. You can opt to live in the dark ages, just don't scream everytime the magic people talk to you from the flashing box - it'll upset the neighbours.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And this is why left wing liberals are idiots ladies and gents. and why they have lost brexit, lost the US, have lost virtually everything.

Its not a dark age thing to call trannies weirdos, sorry if that offends your snowflake self.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry, where did I say that? It is a dark ages thing to say "you do not have to accept any old crap, contrary to your beliefs." - it's the sort of thing a flat-earther would come out with.

The idea that the left have destroyed debate is a bit laughable really.

Not met Sizzle then.

Have Sizzle and Stretty ever tangled with each other?

Maybe they can't actually be on the same thread together because of, well you know, physics and that.

Arguing is not debate,anybody who disagrees with him is either,racist,xenophobic,or as thick as school custard.

How about the overly right ones?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Same. I'm dead centre.

I think the bigger issue is the lies from politicians in order to get votes which people fall for. For me it's the same as false advertising which is illegal. Why is it legal for politians to lie which sways the opinion of many of the general public?

I also think transgender is not natural. I find it hard to think you can just change your gender.
