I agree with you Arielle , i love the "please stop" in the video's title 😂 really this is too much
I Click the like button when the Video starts, i love You, 😘
Arielle just wanted to let you know you're awesome and I've been following you since you were awakened and appeared on Tim's show the first time. You're beautiful and a badass keep up the great work.
So with THIS SHIT going on, My question is (and I don't think I'm the only lesbian
wondering this)--How the hell do I date in this bullshit political climate? How the hell do I find a girlfriend who isn't ABSOLUTELY batshit crazy? I'm not saying it is impossible but it is definitely a challange. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Love your channel btw. I thought I was alone for the longest time.
This is getting confusing, but I refuse to diminish my mother and my wife's status as women and mothers to "person who menstruates" and "Birthing Person."
I can respect people's sexuality and choices, but I cannot accept them demonizing others who feel differently.
"Pronouns don't equal gender" then misgendering doesn't exist, like bruh
u have a good point right here lmao
That's the kind of logic that Captain Kirk would use to make an evil computer self destruct.
I love this!
Well they were created to refer to biological sexes in third person. But sexist kept associating social constructs to biological sex and now we have this new generation that believes social constructs define biological sex. Even trying to redefine biological terms such as man and woman to reflect social constructs. Therefor invalidate over 99% of identities that are based on biological sex.

@@natashab3412 The cycle of humanity. Our society is dipping back into hard times because of all of these whiney, weak ass people bored with their lives because they've never had to struggle to survive. Strong people incoming in the next generation, you know, once we're living in a post apocalyptic wasteland.
The biggest crime is allowing kids on social media, BRING BACK DIARIES. I wrote the most cringe things on paper and only I have ever known about it.
I'm in my early 30s and I remember when it was the cool thing to fight AGAINST labels. Why, why, oh whyyyy must every single little freakin thing about people be labeled now!? 🤦♀️
Because humanity is a self-contradicting cesspool of awful things, I'm going to describe two people. One guy is a writer That Couldn't robbialistically and was a vicious cheater even when his wife was dying, he was an old dude that made racist propaganda because of something his country to do a different place. Now compare them to this person. An animal rights activist that was able to take a country that was split, in a habited, demilitarized, treated unfairly by world superpowers, and given an $800 billion dollar inflation adjusted debt to pay off because somebody in a different country got sho killed t. This man took that country and made them the number one economy in europe, they were Pro animal rights and vegan, they served in World War i, was fighting a condition that made them prescribed cocaine and opioids to deal with their pain, they were beaten by their father and we're slumming it on the streets a couple times yet somehow. Despite all of this believing themselves to be some kind of Savior destined to save their country, they took back their land, needed the number one economy in europe, did technically unified germany, did things that were effective even if they weren't necessarily moral, and did all of this despite all so fighting clinical insanity and the people they thought feared that they were going to take over the entire world. The first guy was Dr Seuss and the second man was Adolf Hitler. Humanity has come to this point, this is in our history and we are teaching people about them, yeah screw Humanity - instead of calling us Apes I'm going to call monkeys at least for a short little bit as long as I can remember this and possibly not even that long. We have bigger problems considering the ideas of that man who was fighting for labels are somehow making a Resurgence in modern time against what could be described as all things making sense. Humanities and awful thing that is probably fundamentally flawed in at least some way if we ignore basically the entire physical anatomy and biology of this abnormal kind of bald monkey. Dance monkey dance, better Dodge away with that fancy footwork you pathetic little monkey, just stick with fighting for labels until everything below is over and you've avoided the fire by successfully tricking everyone into thinking that you actually were with them. Then make the USSR 2.0 and completely annihilate your competition because you we have a brain even if you are a pathetic monkey
I totallky agree. Unfortunately society doesn't and wants to put you in a box. So they can hate on you. Cis lesbians are the worst for it!
❤right?! 90s kids remember, BE YOURSELF! DOWN WITH THE SYSTEM!😂
Now these people.beg the system to give women abortion rights but cant identify what a woman is😂😂😂
As a bissexual woman I wonder... When did we go from "leave me alone with my sexuality" to "you must love me and bend to my language will and pay for my hair dye"...??? Seriously....
Right. I miss the good ole days when everyone just wanted to be left alone lol And realized nobody really cares much about what other people do. Especially who other people are in sexual relationships with 🥴
Fair enough and you cant always expect a person to know your pronouns by meeting you and they might get them wrong but if someone requests for you to use specific pronouns I dont see why that's so difficult it's not like someone is gonna be pissed if you accidentally mess up the difference is when you do it on purpose just to be an ass
💯 agree, and when can we go back to that?!
Ikr if you gay or bi and you are a good person, we cool, we chill.
@@carris2scents57 what i miss most is the fun we had. Eventhough we had major battles to fight in ireland in the 70s and 80s. Jesus when I think of it now the stuff we had to deal with like regularly going to funerals of guys who died from AIDS and the partys afterwards when we celebrated lives of so many beautiful young men. Homosexuality wasn't decriminalised in ireland until 1993. I remember in the community then we all had gay aunties and uncles who would take people in if their parents disowned them and kicked them out.
"How can we protect something we can't define?"
Good question
Woman- adult human female
You can't protect what you can't define but a lot of women don't want or need protection so they redefine themselves so as to not be protected. Then once they're attacked. They play victim. That's the mind game being played

@@benjaminreyes3624 It's a Catch22. Women in the west are throwing themselves under the bus. Giving womanhood away on a silver platter to narcissists who don't care about them, who have no clue what it is to be a woman.
Answer: we can't.

If we're talking about clothing, the gender fluid person could in theory pack gender-neutral clothing - also I'm not entirely sure if the age being fluid applies to gender fluid or if that's an age fluid thing, honestly with the way my memory works as I am a mere human with false memories being a thing it might be the case that I misremembering age fluid as its own separate thing. If anyone read this and comprehended it, please explain how this happened, please explain how Humanity got to this point, please tell me what the people who say trans women aren't women will say when they see that a trans woman got gender reassignment surgery, or realize that when someone's in the womb as a fetus they start off female and then if they are male they're ovaries become testicles while their vagina seals up into that crease that runs from your ball sack down to your butthole? If you can understand what I put there then clearly you have something I don't, which is strange considering how my child abuse and mental disability list seemingly could be enough to make me fit right in. The original poster is probably not even going to read this, I could call him a pee pee poo poo head and they probably wouldn't even know, where did that childish insult come from? And why do I feel like someone reading that out of nowhere would hurt more than any cuss word out of nowhere assuming they even felt any hurt.
I had a transgender friend, male to female in beauty school. my beauty school was in a very sketchy area. and she knew that she still presented male-ish, she was 6 foot tall and stuff so she would walk me out to my car when we would get off at 10pm.
because she knew she was still going to have that male presence and protect me . I loved how self-aware she was.

@@randomartist8226 i mean agaun it wouldn’t have offended this person if u called him he. but i called him she, because she was my friend. but “she” knew she was a man at the end of the day, and i appreciated her transparency and being real lol.
He didn't need to be a woman to hang out with a girl and the thing was you were afraid to go out at 10 pm was men assaulting you while you actually was accompanied by 6 foot man to prevent against other men, LMFAO 😂

Before I truly knew what a trans person was that I saw this part from a Family Guy episode where Quagmire's dad said that they felt like a woman trapped in a man's body, then there's the episode of the TV show called "fugget about it" we're basically the same thing happens. And now that my brain's been developed, not that I have an understanding of what it's supposed to be and of which is partially because of multiple Trends people in my friend group(s). And that question basically goes something like- if you're born in the body of one gender you have no experience and the other gender's body, so how would you know what it's like to feel like one gender trapped in another gender's body? You the commenter are probably not going to see this, but at least I didn't construct an entire essay on how to build a nuke out of Amazon products- because that would be concerning that it could even allow a crude nuke to be made.
I have borderline personality disorder and I can absolutely agree that these people are probably suffering from the same thing. Borderline personality disorder has symptoms like identity issues, emotional outbursts, a sense of abandonment(needing to feel part of something), black and white thinking (there is only good and bad, no gray areas) and so on. I recieved treatment for mine and had a milder case, but I have NO doubt these people suffer from it.

No kidding. When someone walks onto your territory or property without permission, it's called TRESPASSING
accidentally misgendering someone, especially when first meeting that person, shouldnt be the end of the world-_-
it isn't, if when they correct you you calmly move on and try your best in the future not to misgender them
@@justanotherfangirl2398 But according to people on tic toc one day you can wake up and be gay other times pan, bi trans etc. So there will always be an issue of misgendering going by their logic that you can change your labels any time of the week.
@@Ilovegrunge123 That also isn't how it works, you dont just wake up and decide "Im gonna be gay today" Your gender or sexuality is hardwired into you since birth, it isn't a choice, though what can happen is you think your one thing but after a while you realize you were another, like you think your gay but discover you were actually bi. Also if someone's pronouns change they should tell you before getting annoyed about being misgendered, it's usually only when it is repeatedly happening after you have been corrected that it becomes a problem.
@@justanotherfangirl2398 "that's not how it works you just dont wake up one day and realize you are gay" tell that to the tic tok circus.
@@Ilovegrunge123 First of all, i didn't day that you don't just wake up one day and realize your gay, i said you don't just wake and decide to be gay, i for one actually did just wake up one day and something just sorta clicked and i realized that i was gay, what i was saying was that you dont just decide to be gay or bi or trans, it isnt something you can change, but you can figure out that you were actually something other than waht you thought you were, like a trans person realizing they feel more comfortable with a nonbinary identity. Also, while i mostly dont like tiktok (for seperate reasons) the majority of the "tiktok circus" you are talking about are actually trying to make the same point as me, it's just majorly misinterpreted.
I’m a older trans man and I feel like your totally right these terms need to be gate-kept. A woman is a woman and a man is a man. On that same note trans-women and trans-men are also valid but do not specifically fall under man and women. We don’t live as a cis woman or cis man. So we can’t specifically ask to be the definition or a woman or a man.
So I have something to say Arielle. I actually did my degree in psychology and minor in interpersonal relationships in family studies and I also took a couple of courses in gender psychology. Watching these people on TikTok is literally painful to do. To know that we live in a world where people are living in a video-game-fantasy-mentality while hijacking terms left and right trying to force the rest of us to just accept it, is truly disheartening. I honestly think that part of the problem is that we give them this attention and maybe we need to consider not doing that. Darwinism will work itself out as they no longer have the worlds stage to selfishly manipulate the general public and exploit politics. The fad will fade, the damage will be done, they will be the ones to talk out against it in the future and we can all look back and shake our heads at how insane these kids (and some adults), really were. We’re feeding them with content like this. It’s their fuel. And the majority of people, by far, are going to just get tired of listening to it because we know what reality is. Maybe we should just close our eyes and focus our energy on things we can make better, things that are productive to the general population. I have so many ideas…but I just can’t even watch one more video showcasing tic tok lunacy. It’s just not worth the frustration and stress.
But if we ignore it and do nothing more people will be brainwashed, especially children and it'll only continue to get worse
Packing clothes as non binary they have to think about what they’re wearing but also clothes don’t have a gender, right? These people 😂
lmaooo
They are constantly contradicting themselves and then they will claim the term "contradicting" doesn't mean what it means. XD
But what if they are gender fluid and "transition" (or whatever the F they call it when a genderfluid person changes their mind again) won't they then be wearing the "wrong gender's" and therefore have committed a hate crime against themselves or something? 🙄
If a guy wants to wear dresses and skirts, have at it, if a woman wants to wear pants... well they've been doing that for decades and I don't think anyone cares.
Though I suspect that's the problem here, society has become so tolerant these kids need new ways to claim the older generation is "so oppressive" and "doesn't understand", etc....
Correction: This person 😂
You can't lump people together.
Just like I can't say "these orange Sammi need to go back to Jersey shore."
Someone else's inability to choose clothes is not my problem.
I just want to say, that as a 65 year old veteran of this "gay" thing (lesbian for as long as I have any memory and "out" since I was 18) that you are a breath of fresh air, a very needed breath of fresh air, and DARE I say it? (yes I do) There comes a time when you simply have to call out the attention seeking little dweebs for what they are - attention seeking little dweebs, and some are truly mentally ill as well.
Thank you so much
Our elder has spoken 😍😍😍
You'd love Blair White then. She speaks reality and how those none binary attention seeking tantrumers have a negative affect on the lgbtq community, trans in particular. Plus the denying the reality that transgender woman were once men and don't have periods so seeing a gneocologist is ridiculous, they batter woman when they enter their sports and you can't dress as a woman then demand an 18 year old girl wax your ball sack and sue them when they get very upset etc. Blair White is a legend

Great video, Arielle! Thanks for your work.

I’m a high school science teacher and it is getting more and more irritating to teach Biology because of the whole gender/sex issue. I literally have to explain that when I talk about SEX it does not include trans people because I am talking about biological sex and not an identity. I have been fortunate that I USUALLY have trans students who get I am only referring to sex and not gender. I also get questions about intersex people which has made me less tolerant to the LGBTQIA groups because they apparently want to claim intersex people as if they are automatically LGBTQIA instead of being individuals suffering from genetic abnormalities and deformities that usually render them sterile.
I also had a discussion with a person who was LGBTQIA and demanded I prove there was no third sex. I pointed out sex is based on gametes and the only gametes we currently know of are sperm and egg. This person was unreasonable and refused to accept that there is no third sex only a spectrum of disorders that affected people with either sperm or eggs. I don’t care what a person “identifies” as, as long as they leave me alone living my boring, heterosexual, binary, gender aligning with my sex existence.
This demanding that others must conform to THEIR reality is incredibly hypocritical because they act horrified by the idea of being forced to conform to the binary. You and Mars are correct, words matter. Getting rid of the meaning of words creates more chaos.
The fact that you even have trans students is weird to me. o_O I live in Germany, I've been to school (duh), done two job training programs (that each included 2 and 3 years of school) and went to uni for five years and never even encountered a trans person. The only conclusion I can draw is that it's a trend.
i would be curious to hear this student's criteria for another sex? what defines another sex to them? if a human was born with one less limb, are they now a new sex? eye colour? i had a discussion with someone on another forum about sex and a third one. their argument was, if sex is defined as XY and XX then what about cases like XXY or such? to me, that would still be a mutation. but I am curious to hear your thoughts on the matter since you would be better knowlagable about this topic, as a biology teacher, than I would (no sarcasm)
Oof. That's probably one of the most pernicious aspects of this movement. It's targeting very young people who have not yet been taught how to think critically and use sound reasoning to analyze whether or not something is true. No surprise teaching is rough. Good thing you don't have to deal with sex ed.
imo, transitioning to the other gender is a decision that should only be made as an adult. by then you will be prepping yourself to be independent. what better time? also its a little bit bothersome to me when members of the community claim that gender/sex is a "social construct." um okay?
These folk want to claim intersexism is a third sex, when it’s literally just a medical condition. You’re only male or female, if you’re intersex then you’re only a male with a medical condition, or a female with a medical condition… like… it’s not hard to understand.

"gatekeeping" means having definitions with actual meanings. almost like there are certain people who need protections based on their realities, such as women, (and other ppl like gay ppl and trans ppl deserve their own protections and safe spaces as well).
Our world has literally lost it's mind. I appreciate your videos so much!!! I myself am a transman but, I've never had a problem with the fact that my biological sex is female. Because that's what I was born with! My main cause of dysphoria was always my chest and ever since I had my top surgery life has done a complete 180 for me (in a good way) ... I used to be blinded by the leftist view of everything. Like for example if your a trans man and you want to be a "real man" then you have to 1) be with a woman 2) be on hrt 3) get ALL the surgeries and all that ridiculous B.S. I've come to realize that there is nothing wrong with my biological sex, it is honestly a gift that most people take for granted. But, as you know biological sex and gender are two SEPARATE things. After my surgery I learned a lot about myself that I didn't even know before because during my recovery I had nothing but time to reflect. Now, I'm with a wonderful guy who loves everything about me and I've even been off hrt for a little over a year now so we can (hopefully) one day have a baby. Sadly I have gotten hate for this decision, which makes no sense to me really. Like I literally have everything I need, right here in my body to grow a tiny human ... whats so wrong with me wanting to take advantage of that? It's not like I'm detransitioning, I am completely happy with my gender I just want to have my own child, because I can. And if that makes me a "woman" in stupid peoples eyes I don't really care because that's the chromosomes I was born with and nothing can change that BIOLOGICAL fact ..... Maybe I'm crazy LOL
Omg, I'm sorry for the rant (especially since it isn't really on topic) but, people need to see transmen who are comfortable in their biological sex and their gender identity, I think.
Hope you have sucess with that
So you aren't a man if you can get pregnant and give birth? Transgender people aren't men or women then.
Concorde.
I remember when people were special because of their personality. Today, all that matters is gender, skin color, sexuality and pronouns.
What is this?
Look into the source of the exclusion. Racism, sexuality, gender etc. wasn't an issue 30 years ago as it is today. That's because people have stopped thinking for themselves.
What is this? Literally hell.
I also remember when we were judged on our character. Not on whatever ism is chosen for the day. The dweeb who identifies as Korean is just beyond me how can you change your very cellular structure? And why did they believe that this is possible. They quibble over definitions and feelings. Feelings do not make truth. Belief is belief yes but it is not a given truth where is the empiricism? Where is the proof. Fake boobs and hormones do not make you a woman. The ability to give birth and feed that baby with your own breasts and have the baby grow inside you from the beginning of an egg fertilized by the zygote which in turn goes on to cell division cell division turns into a human being then that human being gives birth to another human being. That pretty much makes you a woman. Not your clothing or your makeup. Also having your vagina fashion from a penis does not make you a woman. Most trans women that I know still have penises so I'll be polite and call them by their name that they wish to be called but I will not call them women. Just saying
Insanity is what it is .
Humanly constructed bullshit - that is what it is.
Bizarre that Sexual Orientation and Biological Sex are now considered Gatekeeping and not just facts.
Bizarre that stereotypes are being used to define people when such ideals were deemed discriminatory or bigotry.
There is a dude identifying as a Korean despite not being born in Korea nor share the Korean dna. He is going purely based off of stereotypes. Which stereotyping races last I checked is racist.
Then dudes are identifying as women not based on reproductive biology. Therefor leaves only social constructs. Aka, stereotypes. Therefor means they are defining/reducing women to stereotypes. Which again, last I checked, is considered sexist to stereotype women.
Bizarre how the same people that tell us not to conflate biological sex with gender identity are the same ones that conflate the two all the time. By forcing their way into spaces designed and separated based on reproductive biology. Last I checked, your feelings is not where your urinate or defecate from. Despite some people having shit for brains.
They are associating the color pink to womanhood with their flag. The sexism can’t get anymore clearer. I could list dozens of examples but CZcams keeps censoring me when I do. Wouldn’t be surprised if they censor this comment too.
Gatekeeping is what keeps men out of women's sports and women's bathrooms. So yes, gatekeeping is absolutely necessary.

I feel like these are the kids in school who would lie about being allergic to nuts just so they could feel special.

I mean sure we have people with allergies. But, I feel like everytime I turn around someone is claiming to be allergic to something and it can really be anything , these days.

The name she chose when she transitioned (but has changed her full name many times) seems like the perfect name for a real life Veruca Salt. Veronica acts like Veruca, too.

I think after such a rapid slash of radicalised feminism (let me just point out not ALL feminists are btw, but there are definitely SOME out there) there needed to be a way to unify feminists with men again. In a way that doesn’t primarily result in a man white knighting but instead rationalises the concept that equality across the sexes (all two of them) is fundamentally important for our society to grow. In hindsight, the feminists who may have BEGUN to start changing into the Third Wave Super Saiyan 3 counterparts were able to understand the reality where they were once polarised with men’s issues. Now with transgenderism, there is a unification of that.
If someone thinks this means the erasure of trans people, they don’t seem to understand what that means: erasure. That means you no longer exist. You clearly do. You have a voice. It just depends on HOW you use that voice. Screaming demands will get you nowhere but trying to rationalise why you believe it’s better to feel who you are in the gender you expressively connect with is much better than forcing someone to suspend disbelief for your unearned disrespectful self after showing such a lack of consideration in your own behaviour. It may have something to do with the fear that someone actually despises who you are in the inside but there are far more nicer people in the world than there are actual bigots and discriminators. When it comes to scientific fact, the plan isn’t to deflect scientific fact with gender identity studies made by 9 professors who, lo and behold, are activists and may or may not be trans themselves. Then it becomes biased. Science isn’t biased. Anything else when regarding science is make-believe masquerading as the truth.
I got booted off CZcams for what I said in comments on one of Blaire's videos. I expressed that I am offended by the label "cis". Nobody asked me if I was okay with it, the term is like fingernails on a chalkboard and I do not "identify" with it, so PLEASE just call us heterosexual, straight or "normal". I got kicked off CZcams for hating the trans community label for me? Like REALLY?!@#?* Shyeah-I feel your pain.
This community will dub me a racist for not being sexually attracted to black or Asian folks and don't understand that's no stinking "preference", ya know? 🤦♀️ So I'm flat out cruel, evil and hateful, apparently...🤢🤮
I'm a detransitioner at age 15... I was put on hormones and stopped because that wasn't who I wanted to be. I think it's too easy to be prescribed hrt and it needs to be looked upon more.
So imagine at teens you still changed, what more for kids starting age of 4 who are undergoing transition.😪😕
I'm sorry they did this to you and glad you figured it out early. Young people often have no concept on the future repercussions, and lives are being derailed and ruined. Sick as it is to say, this is being promoted because they want a future society of people unable to reproduce.

@cryptic totally agree, they want to feel extra special and unique and they don't seem to get that they are only one of the 8 billion + humans on earth.
They want to be unique. And the only way to do that is to create identities based on social constructs. Which therefor leads to them reducing men and women to stereotypes. Which makes them sexists. Very deluded ones. And the are very narcissistic about it, acting like they are of the up most importance to think everybody is suppose to go out of their way to remember what pronouns they prefer. It’s very clear they crave attention. Some suffer body dysmorphia. But most of these people are just attention seeking entitled sexists.

Honestly that is my issue. All these people confused thinking they’re trans when really they just want permission to be an artsy weirdo because they have no legitimate self-acceptance.
I love "artsy weirdo". My daughter has a friend who insists on being referred to as "they". She is a contortionist and psychic. And all of this is housed in an absolutely gorgeous female human body. I'd like to check in with "they" in 20 years to see if this stuck.
what makes you not an artsy weirdo? pesonally i think it's all bullshit. you're trying to escape something or you're in denial or you want to feel special and remarkable.
Well they also used to distinguish between things like being transsexual or being a transvestite which are two separate things I used to be much more clear distinctions and I think the best thing anyone ever said to me to describe the situation is
I don't like hanging out with women I thought you were going to be fun like the rest of the LGBT and you're just a regular woman and I just can't hang out with you anymore.

Sometimes? That is most of these people, they are bored & have no real problems so they go looking for something to do and treat LGBT folks, minorities and other groups like their pets, insult them by thinking they know what is best for them and speaking for them etc. They don't care about any of these people they just use them, if you happen to actually be one of these groups and don't live up to the stereotypes they believe about you as you sit on their shelf then they will lash out at you hard and punish you for not being their for their amusement. You learn very quickly that you have a place with them and it isn't as an equal or even as a real person and it never will be.

Some things need to be "gatekept" and other things shouldn't. When it comes to who gets to be trans, who is anyone to decide someone else's identity? However knowing how to distinguish between sex and gender is very important or else it can lead to problems when it comes to e.g. a doctors visit.
'Anyone that identifies as correct is correct' would lose you any argument or debate, but it's a winner for defining gender.
Nice.

As a lesbian in my 40’s I’m sick and tired of this poisonous movement, apparently I’m now a trans bloke because I am sexually attracted to women, how incredibly insulting to the LGBT community that I used to belong to.
The lettering to describe my sexuality has been turned into an utter fucking joke, I considered our identify to be a thing of beauty that was LGBT and what we stood for, but somewhere along our journey it’s been corrupted from within and beyond, we were so very welcoming because we all knew what it felt like not to belong, we were a family and we opened our arms.
But with all these alphabet add ons it’s made us an utter farce with our political movement, it’s warped our family and community because the L seems to no longer be apart of this community, we have been isolated thrown aside because we are out spoken and say it as it is, we were the one set of individuals in the community who stood right beside those who were on their own fighting to get a voice, be brought into the light of feeling acceptance.
LGBT youngsters haven’t got a clue what older LGB generations went through to give you the freedom you now have to express yourselves, you berate us, tell us what sexuality we are, FUCK YOU, we wanted equality for everyone, this message is for all of the +++++++ individuals fuck off you leech like bloodsuckers, fuck off and start your own identity alphabet movement because all your doing is making the LGBT look ugly.
Anyone who’s latched onto our activism for equality without doing anything for our community other than push this bollocks you are twisted and all this has done is cause a divide amongst us because all this BS which is undoing decades and decades of blood sweat and tears that we rallied for.
The March wasn’t to party, drink and fuck in a park, it was and is a political protest to say we are here, we are proud of who we are and no longer hiding in the shadows making us feel dirty and unwanted, so have some fucking respect.
If you can’t then piss off and start your own movement and get off our shoulders of what we have built because you are making what was beautiful into ugliness.
Honestly, LGB was all good until it added some letters. I hope you guys can regain what it used to be.
Wow that’s deep. I’m a heterosexual woman in my 40’s and I totally agree with you. I had no idea they were making the Lesbians feel that way. The way they’re making us straight people feel for not wanting to accept all these alphabets and not being attracted to the same sex is not only terrible it’s downright crazy. I’m not nor have a ever been a homophobe I could care less who a person chooses to have sex with I’m more concerned about the quality of their character. The way us women are being treated, disrespected and disregarded these days is very insulting and it’s humiliating and a slap in the face to every woman gay or straight that has had to fight for our rights just to be a woman
I am a Straight Man I love women. If 2 ladies want to be together or 2 guys want to be together. It’s all right with me. I happen to know both as friends. It doesn’t bother me in the least. Leave it alone !!!

As a partner of someone diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and have asked my partner what she thinks about the comparison, she and I both agree. Im not 100% convinced that everyone 'woke' is suddenly a victim of BPD. Im simply saying the comparison has merit according to both our experience.
I think some of it is due to misplaced tribalism. That innate urge and instinct to belong, and be apart of a community, group or cause with needs that outweigh your own. But instead of everyone joining or deciding which tribe they become apart of, we have millennials running around like chickens with their heads cut off - trying to make their very own super special unique and amazing tribe of isolated acceptance.
However to all reading this: you're human (some of you will hate that I said that), but you are. And apart of the human condition is respect. And I respect what you feel comfortable as in terms of identity, but you can't expect me to get it right, to know everything because there are thousands of genders and identites when not so long ago there were only a few. And before that, two. You cannot expect us to "do our research, when new ones are created everyday. Other than that, tell me your pronouns, I will use them. But please at least tell me which of the millions of goddamn genders these days are you.

For a community that's so against gatekeeping, they seem to love throwing people out of the group through that part of the fence that swings out with handles on it.
Ask yourself why is there a need for a group?
@@ufxpnv Well, people group up because community is an intrinsic human need. We want to share our lives with others, and we are more open to sharing with people that we have commonalities with.
Does that mean the trans community is actually that kind of community?
What we call 'The Trans Community" today is actually 'The Trans Political Action Group."
Communities are supportive, they build together, raise families together, police one another, protect one another, and more. What we have here today is a group of marxists in dresses. The so-called community's purpose is rarely to build a better life for trans people, but to ghettoize us in pursuit of a weakened, disunified national character. I have wonderful relationships with trans brothers and sisters, but I don't really know if that constitutes community. Trans people are probably more likely to despise me for what I believe than love me for living a trans experience. So what is it? Community, clique, or cult? Jury's still out.
Can we just go back to be straight, gay, and bi? Things were so much simpler then…..

AND NOW EVERYONE THINKS ITS A JOKE?? Omfg. They read something online then diagnose themselves now. When I had to do multiple trips including a 13 month stay JUST to figure out what was wrong with me. It’s so much deeper then these ppl even realize. U have to go thru actual REAL LIFE horror.

Or whatever they call themselves now, I’ve seen dog ppl and alien ppl now, who knows what’s next!
As a trans woman, I went through gatekeeping. Why? To make sure I actually had gender dysphoria. To make sure it was the correct path for me. There is nothing wrong with gatekeeping. If someone genuinly has gender dysphoria, they'll sail through the gatekeeping with no issue.
I remember the days when I (finally) came out; very early 90s; "transgender" was not yet a term and there were THREE categories of gender variance - drag queen, crossdresser/cder, and transsexual. If you had no desire to change the physical nature of your existence, or to identify fully and wholly as the gender other than that of your birth, then you were not a transsexual. And if your crossdressing was more recreational that anything else and you had no desire to be flamboyant (and you probably weren't gay) and know, you were not a drag queen.
Once upon a time, there was a set of GUIDELINES on how to successfully transition; the Harry Benjamin Standards of Care HBSoC. Look it up. The point is that it didn't tell you exactly what to do but it did recommend your best chance of successfully transitioning, although it did (having been written in the 60s) ascribe to a few stereotypes. By THOSE criteria, I would not have 'passed muster' because I learned very early in my life that it was definitely not about dressing up. I don't do eye makeup, not a dress up queen, and my affected mannerisms are to not be anything other than myself.
FURTHERMORE, and I know that I am probably an outlier for this, but I don't see the visible group of trans people as a community; it is a disparate population of gender variants who, much like the Walking Dead zombies, are kind of meandering in the same general direction with no specific goal in mind.
*I* was vilified a few years ago when I was one of the instigators in our LGBTQ "community" to have a general meeting (for whatever). At the assemblage, un by someone full of themselves and all fluffy and puffy, went into a confrontational rage when, in my turn, I stood up and introduced myself by name, pronouns, and as a transsexual. I was accused of committing verbal assault and violence against some apparently overly sensitive gender variants for whom charting a definitive gender altering course was seriously anathema. To this day, I laugh at the number of people who claim to be trans but can't quite put their finger on how or why, except that it makes them feel better about themselves with total disregard for those in their environment or orbit.
And....to close, also once upon a time, sexuality and gender were pretty separate issues, so being a poly lesbian is, as Arielle mentioned, the height of personal confusion. *I* actually stopped calling myself trans 'woman' and seldom identify as a 'lesbian' because words matter everywhere and in order to facilitate a better dialog with more ardent feminists without starting more fires, I admitted that I am, after all a person, trans or otherwise.
I can live with that.
I grew up in the same era... My views as a Cis-Gendered Male Hetrosexual are often based on that time growing up, I admit I am out of touch and need to learn a lot... But I do find that much of teh Gatekeeping that so many seem to do is causing more and more harm to the LGBTQ+ Community...
While I was Homophobic when I was younger, I did grow out of it with help from an openly Gay Friend... I am very Supportive of the LGBTQ+ Community as a whole, but sadly some are now abusing it for the sheer hell of "Feeling Unique" in my personal opinion... Again, I may be very wrong in that view, but the more and more I hear words such as the title of this video spoken by Individuals.... The more convinced I become that some are literally just taking the piss and they will in turn make life far harder for people such as yourself...
...I may have got my head out of my ass and realised my Intolerance was wrong, But there are many more out there who are likely to Victimise people such as yourself for the behaviour of this "Precious Few"
Your tale of the General Meeting are exactly what I am talking about... I am glad you can laugh at it, You look far better for that! Do these people not realise the real harm they are actually causing? Do they even care?
@@Phoenix2312 - I think that you sort of got my point, but I am NOT an advocate for disposing of gatekeeping entirely. People have gotten so used to doing what they wanted as autonomous human beings that they are now minimizing the leap between getting a tattoo or piercing and taking hormones or getting a vaginoplasty on the whim that it will make them happier. "Back in the day" WE transitioned because we resolutely felt like we were born the wrong gender; in my crowd back 30 years ago there wasn't a dressup queen in the bunch, and we were in earnest to embrace our core gender identity warts and all. And there was INTENTION.
And maybe that's the problem here. OUR efforts to mainstream all of this has made it so that the obstacles seem fewer as do the risks. The consequence of that is that people don't necessarily assume responsibility for their (own) actions, instead expecting everyone else to be fine with however they choose to present themselves on a day-to-day basis.
Being a "transsexual" (in particular) requires a strong sense of self. Without that, it is extremely easy to lose one's way, which is a prime catalyst for the uptick in suicide among (mostly) young ;'trans' people; trans not meaning the same thing necessarily as transsexual.

I'm a trans woman in Iran, and transitioning is legal here. Though there is a rigid path one has to take in order to be able to transition and eventually change documents. Although nothing makes sense in Iran, this one very well follows the nature of the topic which is both medical and legal. You see a sexologist, a psycho analyst and a doctor specializing in glands and hormones for overall 12 sessions and you also take every personality test there is out there. This allows for every single diagnosis you have to become visible to the 3 experts and if they reach a consensus on 1 you having gender dysphoria and 2 your other diagnoses not playing a role in it. Then you go to a judge and request for a certification allowing you to transition. He send you to a government organ dealing with legal+medical topics, where you get re-evaluated as well and tested for drug addiction, chromosomes and hormone levels, which further determine your GD is not caused by hallucinations or being intersex. After that, you have your last medical interview with top rank experts in the country and they write back to the judge themselves, approving of your GD. After that, the judge looks at your criminal records to see if you don't have criminal intentions for changing your identity and after that he gives you the certificate. Once you have that, you can get any surgery you want and do all your everyday tasks with no legal issue even if you don't resemble your documents, and once you get bottom surgery they change every single document you have in a week. This whole process allows for a few things: 1. Dignity of trans people. People know our struggle is real and sympathize with us because the "gatekeeping" keeps the freaks away. 2. Literally nobody detransitions here. When you go through the comprehensive process, you are absolutely sure of your diagnosis. And 3. Nobody can misuse our identity cause not everyone can identify as trans and turn it into a cult as it has become in the states. I hope this helps you visualize why these things are not a problem in the east.

I can't imagine what it must be like to be so lost as to think that your sexuality or gender is the most important aspect of what makes a person special.

I am trans-species. Since I was a child I identified as a pony. I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and found a BDSM group who does pony play. I was so excited. I thought I was in heaven. Then some friends took me to Ano Nuevo State Park to see the elephant seals. I was mesmerized. And, suddenly I realized I am truly an elephant seal. I am now doing hormonal therapy and preparing for surgery. At the park, they said that after birthing pups and mating at Ano Nuevo, the females go to Hawaii, the males go to Alaska, and anybody who is not sure hangs out near San Francisco.
I don't want to live on this planet anymore
To quote Douglas Murray, "We are pretending to know about things we don’t know and pretending to not know things we’ve known til yesterday.”
I'm à terrible trans person for agreeing with you, but I stand by my rights and I agree with you that these people are tearing apart the LGBT community. I bet that 90% of them don't even know the origin of the LGBT community.
"I bet that 90% of them don't even know the origin of the LGBT community"
I lot of younger people don't seem to know their LGBT history but that's because many people right now seem to have a tendency to rewrite a lot of it.
I just saw a short promo for the movie " Crimes of the Future" that kind of reminds me of where we seem to be headed.
Words mean nothing anymore.
Here’s my hypothesis.
These kids who are wrapped up in the trans trend are the same ones who would have been cutters with EDs in the 90s/00s.
It’s not about gender identity it’s about attention seeking, social inclusion, and approval.
It reminds me of the metrosexual trend, except it kept going..
I’d love to do my thesis on this but there’s zero research on this because offensive.
Also- from a research standpoint it seems like “gatekeeping” the medical side of transition leads to better long term outcomes for individuals seeking care.
The fact that you think cutting and EDs are attention seeking is disgusting. You are a foul human being. If it's so attention seeking then I don't see why cutters and EDs are severely hidden at all costs. Yes there are small groups of people who do it for attention but the majority don't.
I cut myself because a man stabbed me when I was 16 and nearly killed me and I wanted to feel as if I could take that power back from him and put it in my own hands and hid it until I cut too deep and needed medical attention. Shit wasn't for attention, your take is trash.
@@thanatosonpluto5098 My cousin used to cut herself and then walk around school showing the scars off and never hid them. You probably have PTSD from a rare traumatic experience. My cousin lacked attention from parents without a single situation in her life that would make her an outlier.
@@thanatosonpluto5098 Is it? Or do I different worldview than you, which is backed up by research. Btw since you want to use trauma as point validation.
I was raped multiple times as a child by my stepdad so much, in fact, it permanently damaged my body. I was assaulted multiple times in HS. I think in total I've been raped 8 times in my life but the disassociation is real.
I'm Native American, from a reservation, and was tortured for that all through high school. I'm also queer and trans. My mom committed suicide when I was 19 and my dad died from cancer when I was 23. I am neurodivergent and disabled.
I AM a cutter that has needed stitches and ER care multiple times, I have an ED and have been in the hospital for multiple suicide attempts...
But the fact remains that when I was in HS so many of my peers had EDs and were "cutters" for the fashion of it. I was actually sick and they did shit for the trend and attention. Research exists that shows if a person's peers are doing something that gets attention, others will follow. There are many people who are trans but there are just as many doing it because they get attention.
PS- don't play oppression Olympics with people on the internet. You have zero idea the traumas others have.
I unlike others wouldn't open my mouth if I didn't know what the fuck I was talking about.
@@Klauniene While I agree that some people do do it for attention, the post lumps all people who did stuff like that together, which for someone like me it is offensive. Many people do different things for different reasons and making blanket statements like that are the root of most if not all prejudices. Also thank you for acknowledging P.T.S.D., most of the time when people harass me and I tell them to stop because of my condition they refuse to even acknowledge it exists.
gatekeeping is a good thing. i am a trans man. i am bisexual. people are tearing down all the hard work that now even the pride flag makes me feel uncomfortable.
Wholeheartedly agree. I hate the progressive flag; it shits on everything the pride flag originally stood for.
Came for the title 😂, stayed for commentry!💯👏🏽
If gender has nothing to do with sex, then why is sex reassignment gender-afirming?
Can’t each person be unique…just by being you. Isn’t that good enough?
That's the point... That's why the binary sucks because it just doesn't work for everyone; but some people can't seem to fathom the possibility of a person just wanting to exist in peace.
No, nowadays you need to be a pansexual lesbian non-binary man to be unique.
no, they have the Nice Guy Syndrome, they need to belong and be accepted to be valuable (see Robert Glover)
No person is unique by gender, there are only 2
apparently not enuff likes in that simple approach, nor enuff complicated pronouns and expensive surgeries.
Women with pink P-hat, can't define woman at women's march. Sounds like an Onion article. 🤔
When reality blurs with parody
@@p.z.arnott2329 Everything feels like a Mad TV sketch or a live action reenactment of South Park.
Gatekeeping is a bad thing that comes from a bad thing that came from a bad thing
I watched you years ago. Lost track, got told by a few trans people on here you were anti but Arielle, I gotta say you still got it.
Gatekeeping is something that is actually really important, when there's too little or too much it's a nightmare.
It's also a nightmare when it's weaponized to be a tool for social control...
Especially when you have hormonal teenagers trying to make huge life decisions that will effect them for the rest of their lives. You can detransition but some of what happens on hormones is not reversible.
As a trans woman these tik toks are pretty sad to see and there the primary reason why LGBT+ people are loosing acceptance especially those who fall under the T because some people think we have a hive mind thing going on.
t isnt connected to lgb. lgb is sexulaity, t is identity. go make your own stuff and stop jumping on someone elses train
Transexuals are not to blame for transbenders ideology
@Milk Dud thanks you. everyone before us faught like hell to achieve the rights everyone in the community has today we all mostly did that together.
@@claireitsme exactly I'm a transsexual and that was a good avatar the last Airbender reference.
@Milk Dud no they haven't. Try to learn some history that goes back more than 10 years. The t joined the LGB mainly after gay marriage was approved in the US. You weren't as important as you think before you joined the LGBs.
Yes, please keep it up! Gate keeping is important, it is almost the equivalent of listening to and respecting your elders!
