My teacher told us “You don’t need to understand someone to respect them.” He also told us “Everyone has the freedom of speech but that still doesn’t mean you can yell fire in a movie theater when there isn’t one.”
Transphobes be like "I can tell whenever someone is trans. Every trans person I've met hasn't passed." Like yEAh. Because you don't know that passing trans people are trans.
my mother said the same thing once so I proceeded to show her pics of trans youtubers asking her to tell me if they were trans or cis and she thought they were all cis.
I'm okay with you being nonbinary and pansexual, but I draw the line at craving bread! SMH my head, people these days.... Anyways, feel proud about who you are! Enjoy it! And crumch that bread.......
What I understand from genetics is that there is two sexes with some mutations genetically possible, but GENDER is a spectrum, and people can Identify with whatever gender which doesn't have to correspond to sex. I may be wrong tho.
Tranphobe: *discriminates against transgender people on daily basis, ignoring their preferred pronouns, rights to exist in peace and freedom to just live their lifes" Thansphobe: *faces the consequences* Also thansphobe: "BuT wHaT aBoUt My FrEeDoM aNd My RiGhTs???"
Transphobe: "We will have lost the words" Jamie: "That just sounds irresponsible. Where'd you put them?" Of course only Jamie would be able to add a little bit of humor to such discriminatory content.
Imagine hearing someone introduce themself with their name and being like "No, that's not your name. I will call you [insert name here] and you are [insert gender here]. Why? Because I said so."
Imagine the plot twists that could appear. For example, a system might introduce themself by their system name, but then be told that they’re whoever’s in charge. “Hello!” “Hi! I’m Kae.” “No, you’re Isaac.” “….huh?” “You fool, I’m a mind reader! Also tell Damian I said hi.” (Panic ensues.)
"How dare you be angry at me for being a jerk!? Why can't I use every slur in existence for the specific purpose of making someone fell bad about themselves, it's not like it affects me!" That's what these people sound like.
Bruh these ppl really equating a slur to refusing to address someone by their preferred pronouns, And you wonder why no one takes modern LGBTQIAJEBWJAISGSNWJ seriously nowadays. You're just undoing the progress past gay rights activists made back then. They must be rolling in them graves rn
@@autumnbreeze_official my mum's cousin used to call his parents by their names and was really disrespectful and cheeky. Luckily he's a nice person now and calls them mum and dad. (I don't find anything wrong with calling parents by their names, just he meant it to obviously be disrespectful)
Also, Gendering someone correctly is as easy as using someone’s preferred name or nick name “Hey Johnathan” -> “Umm, I prefer John” -> “Ok John” “Hey, who is he?” -> “Umm, I prefer She/her” -> “Ok, who is she?” (If this is hard for you, you’re either in preschool or belong there... actually nevermind, preschoolers do this greatly
Avi Shevin but to be fair, it’d be pretty hard to forget that little factoid about someone, with that description and that desire, you’ll probably remember their pronouns just like how you remember they wanna be called Shirley
Avi Shevin Because, 1, your negatively impacting others lives, and 2, telling your doctor that you can never remember names could help you in the long run. Old age, man.
Avi Shevin look, I’m bad at names too. Really bad. But it’s not that hard to say “hey, what is your name again?” And “hey what are your pronouns again?” Is just as easy.
Ok, but imagine if someone started referring to a cis person with the wrong pronouns. “Oh, Cynthia wanted me to tell you that he doesn’t think he should be forced to use people’s preferred pronouns, so I’ve started referring to him using he/him pronouns to show him how damaging it is.”
The only time I will ever intentionally misgender someone or think it’s okay at all is to get back at them for intentionally misgendering someone else. It’s not hard to just use the right pronouns. (It is okay if you simply messed up as long as you apologize and correct yourself.)

@@interdisciplinaryhumanitie894 How about we silence *YOUR* opinions huh? Then you cry oppression? Give me a break. Respect was never a basic human right lmao, Respect has to be earned. If I respect everyone then it's a respect without substance and therefore I don't respect anyone
@@carlsonraywithers3368 I said respecting a human’s basic dignity, not respect as you’re talking about it. There’s a difference. I don’t have to respect transphobes because in my eyes they haven’t earned it in the slightest. But that doesn’t mean I won’t treat them with basic human dignity. The thing about transphobes is that lots of them won’t do the same for me! Now about my confederacy analogy. The confederates DID NOT treat their slaves with basic human dignity. I don’t need to tell you that. Transphobes, while yes, not to the degree of enslavement, also don’t respect my basic human dignity as I already mentioned. That was the point of my comment.
I imagine these are the karens that get mad when you ask what toy their kids want in the mcd drive through "A boy toy" "Cool do they want a horse or a car?" "Its for a boy!" "Do they like horses or cars???"
Lee Keith Wait, when were horses only for girls. Cowboys, horseriding, etc can also be seen as masculine stuff, as well as female stuff. When were animals a girl thing?

I want someone to use he/him pronouns for her and see how she feels. Then when she says that she is a women they pull up this video. That would make my year
Lisa Ashwood She would still feel uncomfortable and be confused as why she is being referred to by he/him pronouns. Dysphoria is a trans person being uncomfortable with body parts and pronouns and not everyone experiences dysphoria in the same way. By using the wrong pronouns she would sort of get a feeling of dysphoria because she isn’t being called what she wants to. It would have the same effect without her actually having dysphoria.
I’m gonna say this. As a trans (FTM) when I came out to my three friends, I was met with mostly positivity. Two of them (both cis, but LGBTQ+, one is hindu and the other is non-religious) respected me and supported me. The third friend (christian, cis, and hetero) simply said “okay.” For a while, she would be uncomfortable if the topic of LGBTQ+ was brought up, but she STILL RESPECTED MY NAME/PRONOUNS!! The worst thing she ever said to me was that she didn’t understand why I would want to be different. Since then, she has become much more accepting of the topic, and only discriminates against me if she is around her parents or my parents (she lets me know beforehand as well!) I have another friend as well, who is Islamic. As most people know, Muslims cannot support LGBTQ+. But, they can respect it. Meaning. That Islamic people can still use someone’s preferred name/pronouns. It’s not okay to discriminate no matter your religious beliefs, your personal beliefs, etc. just call someone he, she, they, xe, ze, co, thon, whatever pronouns they use and respect their name! *_IT’S NOT THAT HARD_*
@@rockytheblocky3051 But they'd also be the first to hit the proverbial roof if some younger person made some derogatory comment about them being old - "How dare you, you should respect your elders!"
RockyTheBlocky They do have free speech. There are just some things that shouldn’t be okay to say. If you know someone’s pronouns, and know how much they struggle every single day with gender dysphoria, it’s honestly cruel to knowingly misgender someone just because you don’t get it.
@@stealthyfang3660 whether you call them by the right pronoun or not isn't what's going to make them transition or detransition. You don't hold that power.
@@stealthyfang3660 A. being trans isn't a delusion, no, I don't feel like debating that with you, my point will remain that it isn't no matter what fake science/religious bs you decide to throw at me. B. calling someone by the correct pronouns is literally just being decent. If you refuse to call random people by the pronouns it's obvious are correct (because of appearance, them saying so, or someone else telling you), it just makes you look like an asshole. It makes them feel shitty because people are treating them like trash, and you can lose friends bc they realize you're acting like, well, an asshole. Just call people the pronouns they want to be called. You're right. It's not hard. It hurts exactly Zero People.
I don't get why it's so controversial. Why can't people change their gender? I can change my name, job, hair colour, religion, literally almost everything about myself. Why is this scary exactly???
The thing I don't understand is "transracial" which I've heard of a few times. It seems to be this vague extrapolation of being transgender but applied to race instead of gender. I get that gender is a social construct, but so is race I think, meaning that the concept of "transracial" should be validated as well? I'm just asking to understand whether it's something I should respect the way I respect changing genders, because I've always felt it to be a nonsensical concept.
Say it with me folks: Discrimination isn’t justified because you have a different opinion!!! Discrimination is ILLEGAL and comparing it to politely disagreeing on an issue is absolutely ridiculous.
Where I'm from, legally hate speech isn't protected under freedom of speech. So like, Nazi swastikas aren't protected as an example. I remember getting into a pretty invloved fight (?) With my dad because of this issue. He describes himself as a libertarian. I'm a lesbian so maybe this affects me a lot more then him but idk. I just couldn't get through to him
@@emi_nemone2792 I half agree and disagree. I don't think it should be illegal to say it but I am completely fine if saying it gets you to lose your job and becoming ostracized. As the video said, "Free speech does not mean freedom from consequence." Basically the only thing that protected speech means is that you can't be put in jail for saying it; that's all. For example, you can be nazi all you want but if you job finds out you are they have the right to fire you over your choice and people do not have to respect that opinion. I will add though that this is only for choices not for something that is not a choice like sexual orientation or disability. I also don't consider gender a choice and sex (biological) and gender (mental) are not the same thing.
@@Nostripe361 I agree. Just so people know, by hate speech I meant the legal term meaning extreme hatred for a person because of their perceived group. Actual definition is: abusive or threatening speech or writing that expresses prejudice against a particular group, especially on the basis of race, religion, or sexual orientation. Usually hate speech will naturally fall into a hate crime (but not always). Because of this its hard to prove and seek justice legally. So like, the new indepedent fundamentalist baptist group that advocates for the capital punishment (ie government can just put you to death) of lgbt individuals is hate speech. Talking about wanting to beat someone up because they are (insert race or group here) is also hate speech. Saying you don't believe in the gender spectrum, while I disagree, isn't hate speech.
The year I came out one I corrected one of the boys in my friend group for using the wrong pronouns. He said something along the lines of "Every time I talk to you I get yelled at" and I corrected him by saying "I'm not yelling at you, I'm just trying to correct you so I feel comfortable hanging out with you" and after that he apologised and got use to my new pronouns
Misgendering someone in French class is evil. It's not just the pronouns: everything in French in gendered (binarily, at that). Or at least, all the adjectives are. If you only use the correct name you're essentially doing nothing if you then go on to call the other person "Heureuse" when they're actually "heureux"and "belle" when they're really "beau".
@@he.said.teenjiejer a lot of languages have this issue in spanish its REALLY difficult to use gender neutral sentences. Some people started ussing the -e at the end of the nouns and adjetives instead of the usual -o (masculine form) or -a (femenine form) example: children -chicas (fem plural) -chicos (masc plural) -chiques (neutral plural) BUT since most of spanish speaking countries uses the guides from the RAE (Real Aademia de la lengua Española/Royal Academy of the Spanish language) and this institution (and A LOT OF PEOPLE) its against the use of "inclusive" language (cause tradition) its reaaaaaaally hard to make any (significative) progress. (sorry for the rant)
@@PutoMedicoBrujo in brazillian portuguese some ppl are also trying to use the -e at the end to make it neutral, but unfortunatelly the "x" instead of "a" or "o" has been so far spread amongst the people who are willing to make that change that you see it everywhere instead of the -e. it's kind of upsetting bc the "e" is actually fit for nb ppl who prefer those pronous, and also for ppl who have a hard time reading words with an "x" for various reasons as far as i've heard, so the fact that you refuse to use it in text, and therefore adheres to a form of neutrality that isn't fit for speaking makes it seem like you either don't know much about the subject anyway. idk if those changes are being discussed academically and officially, so i can't say if there's an institutional power against it, but i suppose it isn't being discussed bc everyone is settled with the "x" which isn't very appropriate. it's gonna take a while for ppl to start actually saying words with "e", and since we're not on that level yet i don't think it'll be recognized anytime soon. though i admit i don't use that in speech either, and when texting i often try to neutralize the phrase instead of using the "e". maybe i should do my part and start to normalize it. either way, sorry for the long comment as well, this is an interesting topic
@Some Guy but like giving basic respect to someone and not insulting them and criticizing the government are 2 very different things. I hope you can understand that
@@water2205 hey if you're trying it's fine. Just know that we can tell when someone is genuinely making a mistake and when they're doing it to be a prick.
SIDE NOTE sex assigned at birth is actually scientifically accurate, as biological gender is inaccurate. Way to go Fairfax County for fixing an academic issue AND being inclusive at the same time!
@@laswap1 assigned at birth and biological mean the same thing, just worded differently. Saying 'biological' can cause dysphoria, so saying 'assigned' is much better, hope that helps! :)
"Evolution is just a theory!" "The globe Earth is just a theory!" "Gender studies are just theory!" All the same fucking argument: "X is 'just a theory', therefore I can think otherwise." The problem is that they apply the vernacular definition of a theory, "a possible explanation for or prediction of an event", to the scientific usage of the word theory, whose true definition is "A proposed explanation for a given phenomenon that fits all observations and is corroborated by repetitions of such observations", and then work from that to develop such dumbass and downright antiscientific thinking.

@@actaeondiomedes4270 Boomer survivorship bias? Where did that come from?

Here's the thing, This world has some sadistic, unsavory and machiavellianistic people out there and you "respecting them until given a reason to do so" can be very dangerous. Give them a due process first, and keep it scarce. Like love, Respect is more valuable when few people get it, Because that means those few people are very special and that's what gives it meaning.

There's no way the French teacher just "avoided using pronouns or gendering the student" because it's impossible to teach French (and many other languages) without gendering someone in your speech. What's worse is there's no neutral gender in French, you typically use masc instead, so this guy would literally be going out of his way to be obtuse. (for no reason) He may be able to avoid it in English, largely thanks to neutral speech, but there's just no way this teacher was able to avoid it with French. Wow. He's really banking on people not knowing how other languages, particularly French, work. Gender is woven into the very nature of the language itself, not just the obvious pronoun portion. It changes a number of factors when you speak or write. The concept he magically avoided it is laughably bad. Edit: Oh man 1k likes is the most I've ever had! asdfghjkl! Thanks guys! Remember it's not hard for a language teacher to stick with your preferred pronoun whether they like it or not.Their whole job is to help you learn things, not to control every aspect of your existence. That's not their right. We don't let teachers do this with religion or ethnicity and gender identity isn't any different. Protect trans kids!
@@he.said.teenjiejer That's a very English way of thinking about it lol. French isn't the only language that does this by a loooooong shot. I grew up with the same concept only in Hebrew, Danish, and Spanish. We generally just use masc pronouns, no prob. Using the masc as a default for neutral groups is seen as normal. It's honestly not much of an issue when you're used to thinking that way in the first place if that makes any sense. It's just different. idk. I wouldn't say we're screwed either. I personally don't even think about it tbh. It would be like trying to remove neutral pronouns from English: neat, but bizarre. People do still attempt to create personal neutral pronouns though for sure. It just doesn't always stick. (just like with English) Heck. A lot of non-binary LGBT people don't even use them because, as far as many are concerned, something already exists.
An example on how gender linguistically is viewed differently in French: My chair, in French, is gendered as female and I would refer to it that way grammatically too... but it's an inanimate object. Like with people animal names also change depending on their gender, (une chatte VS un chat) but most people will just use the masc. (edit: totally just remembered this, but goats actually take the feminine as their neutral pronoun!) This is part of why I say there's literally no way around gender in French too. People at least have a say in their gender and how they wish to be called, but literally everything in French is gendered no matter how you slice it.
Chloe McCain yea I think they were only talking about those who are rude and disrespectful towards the trans community just because they’re trans and they don’t agree w/ them. and it’s true that you don’t have to agree with it or support trans people to be respectful. someone I know personally is that way. she’s tried hard to be respectful and try to understand, and she’s really not a bad person, so yeah that’s true ^ ^
DewdropKitten most of the time I think people’s reason for not ‘supporting’ trans people is a lack of understanding, and maybe no cis person can understand what it’s feels like to be trans, but just because you don’t understand someone’s identity doesn’t mean you can’t be respectful to them, be kind, and you ARE going to face repercussions for discrimination. E.g. while you are completely free to refuse to hire a woman in the workplace and claim that women should be at home with the kids, that doesn’t mean that you won’t get fired for treating that woman in a discriminatory way. You’re allowed to say that, no one will force you to work with her, no one can, but you may not have a job at the end of it because your actions always have consequences! Idk why it’s so hard for people to understand??
I hate how people abuse the use of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of being a bully or the freedom of giving death threats. I mean in a way you do, but it doesnt make it right as it is harmful to others and violent and can cause death.
I've even seen stuff like this happen to a cis classmate. She had a name that wasn't particularly gender specific, short hair, and a deeper voice than most high schoolers. Pretty much every teacher and many classmates misgendered her at first but fixed it after being politely corrected. One teacher (we assumed cause he was ancient) just went the whole year calling her "he".
A friend of mine is exactly the same appearance wise , except that he has a official female name. He decided that he wanted to be called a male name and that they use the male pronouns. Our teachers didnt because "it's not in your birth certificate, so we cant call you that" (literally what they said). I still call him by female pronouns by accident sometimes but i correct myself whenever I can. They were outright refusing and discriminating against him.
I am basically the opposite some people tell me I have a light voice which I don’t think I have maybe I do and I am very very long hair like some even longer than some of the girls in my classroom so I get called a girl a lot

I’ve been wanting to say this for a while, but I’m a closeted trans male, I’ve only come out to very close friends and my sister. One day, I was feeling horrible about being trans, ashamed even. But, i got a strange feeling that i wanted to go on CZcams, like it was the only thing that would make me feel better. I saw this channel in my recommendations and clicked on it immediately. Video, after video, I couldn’t stop watching with a stupid grin on my face. Jamey, this channel, and even the people in the comments section, made me feel like I have a family, like I have a home. I didn’t feel so scared about myself anymore and even felt proud about this pink white and blue pride I have in myself. I had a conversation with my sister last night, when I told her I didn’t want to get surgery, or go on T. She said something that I couldn’t stop thinking about. “But then you’ll never be a real boy”. After watching Jamey, seeing his story, and hearing many of yours, I know that’s not true. This family and this home has proved to me that I am who I am. And nothing and no one can change that, If you’re reading this, thanks for staying, I’m sorry for wasting your time, and thank you for being a part of my family. You are the reason I stay alive, and you are the reason I smile. Thank you. For everything. Thanks for listening to my dead- I mean Ted Talk
You are a wonderful, worthwhile person. You are amazingly strong and I'm proud of you for having the strength to keep going. Your new internet family loves you 💕💕💕
proud of you for staying alive. It's not easy to go through every day as a trans person, and I feel for you. You'll move out someday, you'll be called your correct name and pronouns, and you will ALWAYS be valid whether or not you medically transition. Best of luck, sir

It's funny how you mentioned the "I'm not gonna call you Timothy, I don't like that name so I will call you Matthew" thing, because I actually had that happen to me. I moved states when I was 12, and at my new school this girl didn't like my name because there was another girl with my name who she hated, so she started calling me "Sarah" instead (which btw sounds nothing like my actual name, doesn't even start with the same letter, or anything lol). Then she'd wonder why I never replied to her when she called out to me (I kept forgetting that she chose to call me Sarah lol). Yeah that was weird lol
as someone who's literally been forced to read most of the bible for school, I can tell you right now there is nothing against trans people at all. in fact, most early civilizations had intersex, nonbinary, mtf and ftm people, but just had different names for it. karen needs to do some more research
Ive been forced to go to R.E. (religious education) ever since first grade (when it starts), and we never covered anything about God hating members of the LGBTQ+ community.

I have a friend who’s doctor actually flipped a coin. Their sister is 10 years older than them so she was present at the birth and she has a recording of it.
What I don't understand is these same people would trip over themselves to apologize if they misgendered a cis person or mispronounced/misspelled a co-workers name, but can't bring themselves into the reality that they are just as mistaken when they do this to trans people.
What? Only when they misgender a cis-person? No, they would also be offended if you misgender their dog or even their car, which doesn't really have a gender. I wonder where the argument of chromosomes, biology, reproduction or religion went, when one of them gets offended because someone stupidly used the "wrong" pronouns (although anything other than "it" would be wrong) for a car that doesn't have a gender, but they use "she" when referring to their car, boat, guitar or whatever, and they expect you to respect that.
There's people in my family who've compared trans people to ex convicts on Facebook. "It's f**ked up how we accept people who change their gender but not ex-convicts." Like...I'm all for ex convicts having a good life and being accepted into society, But they're not the same thing...
I remember my history teacher saying something like "Your freedom stops where someone else's begins." It always made sense to me, I can't just do/say whatever I want if it affects someone else. It's common sense and respect. Some of those people need to think, really. It's not their free speech we want to take away, but the pole stuck in their butts.

My friend's form tutor sent an email to all his teachers saying that they should use he/him and his new name instead of his dead name and she/her. One of his teachers literally took him out of the next lesson he had after the email and said, "I will not do that because you are not a boy, you are a girl". This teacher deadnames and misgenders him every time she talks to him. I also had a teacher in year 7 who told off my amab non-binary friend for wearing eyeliner because "makeup is for girls".

Father works in the training department for a casino. At his last job, at the competing casino, he worked training and hr. One of the security guards at the last place refused to let in and tried to beat a trans woman. She hadn't transitioned medically or with her id. She had a purse, was wearing make up, and was wearing a dress. She, rightfully, took it to hr. The guard was fired, he had done this multiple times, and a new training was made for everyone on how to act around trans people. Fathers making the same training at the new casino. It hasn't happened here yet and there are actually quite a few trans people and lesbians working here. If the guard had stopped at just talking about her behind her back, which is still a sh!tty thing to do, then he wouldnt have gotten fired. That is freedom of speech, even if hateful. He probably would've gotten a talking to but a new entire 2 day training wouldnt have been created. He crossed the line when he got violent. Even just denying entry would've been crossing the line since she was old enough to enter. He got the appropriate consequence with being fired. He wasnt arrested cause I live in a state with the gay and trans panic claus but he probably should've been. This is why I'm scared to be openly gender fluid here. The fact that I can be beaten or killed just because I sometimes identify differently than how I was assigned terrifies me. I'm 14 had have been bullied a lot for just being bi/pan. One day those bullies will be able to buy weapons. When that happens I'll never leave my house because I know this state. We've all heard of the trans woman who was dragged miles down a road tied to the back of a truck then shot. That happened an hour away from where I lived at the time. The world needs to change. This state needs to change. These people definitely need to change. Stay safe out there. Itll get worse before it gets better
What? You mean one of the oldest religious groups in the world, from which several other religions stem off of and should therefore share principles with, does not discriminate against people who prefer a different form of recognition from their piers and family? Man, who knew?
Yeah, language control, never ever happened in the US before. Native children weren't kidnapped and forced to speak only English, and no one has ever harrassed immigrants for using their first or heritage languages between themselves. /s
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't language control also enacted upon indigenous Canadians in residential schools? If so then it's not even exclusive to America as a country
@@alissaandry1332 It was very common in many countries, also for example in the UdSSR, enforcing Russian as the only official language pretty much everywhere. It's also still a problem today, for instance in Ukraine. The Ukrainian government tried to suppress the minority of Russians (later 'separatists' in the Krim conflict) by trying to forbid Russian as another official language. No wonder they finally had enough and wanted home to mother Russia. The German minority of South Tyrol (Italy) also had to fight for their right to keep German as their officially accepted second language repeatedly. The list continues.
blackkakari that is not what’s happening tho. Nobody is legally forcing you to use people’s correct pronouns. Not one person has ever been put in prison, or fined, or ever had any sort of legal punishment for misgendering a person. The people who are being punished are those discriminating against trans people. If there were establishments discriminating against Christians, I would be right there with you fighting against that.
@@Hellooo134 But you're wrong. Repeated misgendering can land you a one million dollar fine in New York City. It is very much illegal in much of the Western world and can result in prison time. Especially the European Union.
blackkakari name a single person who has been put in prison for JUST misgendering. Not for harassment or discrimination(well IMO misgendering is a form of discrimination but you know what I’m talking about) or anything else, JUST misgendering. I’m asking for one person.
blackkakari I’m sorry but why is it such a big deal to just respect people and call them what they want to be called? You don’t HAVE to agree with them. But purposely misgendering them and calling them something that causes severe distress and depression is fucked up, whether you agree with their life or not. It doesn’t really affect you. Just use the right pronouns and move on.

(Long comment): Prager U doesn't understand the importance pronouns have for transgender people. It seems PU thinks transgender people are transgender because they're (supposedly) being needlessly picky about how they identify. I believe PU also thinks transgender people are lying to themselves, considering PU seems to think "gender" exclusively refers to biological sex. That false gender/biological-sex relationship is actually something I was taught as fact as a young kid by a *public-school* employee! She told my class how "gender" is a less-crude way of saying "biological sex," and I had no reason to question that until I was out of school. My religious teachings also didn't help things. I thought more like PU until only recently. I'm really not for policing speech outside of employment...but the *workplace* rules protecting against transgender discrimination are definitely justified. Thank you for enlightening me on this.
Using the right pronouns for someone takes so little effort and shouldn’t cause distress. Getting misgendered causes a lot of distress. It’s very simple.
@@fauxhuman0 Heh. *I* don’t use pronouns, *THEY’RE* stupid. *THEY* are pointless and *THEY* don’t deserve to exist. *I’M* sorry, but those are just *MY* beliefs. /j
Also if anyone can help me: i generally use they/them pronouns for people unless they specifically say they want to be addressed a specific way. That’s ok right?

Making yourself the victim when you're actually the ahole is a pretty good strategy, loads of white old rich men have convinced themselves they're the most persecuted beings on the planet. When you've been privileged since time immemorial equality can feel like a downgrade I guess.
A friend of mine had trouble with a professor when I was in film school because she kept misgendering him and kept trying to force him to use his identity in our assignments because “art” or something. I can’t believe how someone could go out of their way to make someone uncomfortable just because they “don’t get it”. He finally told her off (long after I’d left that school) and I’m glad he did.
I view it like being racist. If a person is racist in the workplace, they would get fined. Their argument of “it is my belief” is the same thing people said during the civil war regarding whether *people should be allowed to be treated as people* . This is very similar to me in the way that people fought against it, but obviously not in the struggles. If the video talked about being of color in the video instead of being trans, they would come off as complete idiots, and they still do now. I just worry about the people who learn all of their information on trans people through a google search and a poorly researched add
Even a google search will give you more info than these ads. A lot of their research is unreliable. or they cherry pick data and skew statistics. They use graphs, but half of the time, they are missing a vital part of the graph. Or even showing something that isn't even graphable.
I don't think someone should be fined for being bigoted but it's completely justified reason to be fired. It's a valid reason why someone would stop supporting your business. No reason to complain about the consequences of willingly and knowingly be insensitive.
The same people would harass me for me simply stating that I do not believe in a god and scream that it was THEIR freedoms being persecuted while rioting in front of my house.
@Transgender Service Dog That's extremely hypocritical of them. I believe in free speech, including hate speech. What I don't believe in is harassment.
@@sd7785 If you follow someone around and keep repeating it over and over again, then it's harassment. If you say it once and then leave the other person alone, it's not. If you refuse to say what someone tells you to say, that's not harassment either.
@@sd7785 Outlawing hateful speech seems so innocuous. Well, no one should be subjected to blatant bigotry, right? So lets outlaw it. We'll arrest people who violate our hate speech laws. Who decides what is and isn't hate speech? Why, the establishment, of course! I'm sure they won't use this extremely nebulous precedent to censor legitimate criticism.
@@sd7785 "Your rights end at the point which someone else's body begins". Yeah, that point would be legit if you were talking about the right to throw a fist. I'm talking about words. Words don't cause physical harm. Your reaction to them can. I could threaten that I'm going to kill myself because of something you said. That doesn't leave you at fault if I actually go through with it. Laws designed to curb legitimate hate speech have _always_ been abused. "Hate speech" can mean whatever you want it to mean. Saying that you think Walmart is an evil corporation could be easily declared hate speech. It all depends on the agenda of those in charge. That's why people in some parts of America can get arrested for "hate speech" simply for reporting a black man committing a crime.
@@sd7785 Threats are a different matter. That's illegal everywhere and for good reason. The thing about hate speech is that you can walk away from it. You can speak out against it. You can ridicule or dismiss it. Can it cause psychological harm? Absolutely. That's why you grow a spine and move on. Protecting everyone from hearing things they don't want to hear will just make them more sensitive to emotional harm because they haven't had the opportunity to develop a tolerance. I don't support the right to hate speech because I support hate speech. I'm against hate speech laws because they are far to easy to be abused. What starts as censoring legitimate hate _always_ devolves into censoring legitimate criticism. That's why people in most of Europe can be arrested for "hate speech" simply because they criticize the socioeconomic ramifications of mass migration.
Reminder: Having free spreech doesn't mean discrimination doesn't come with consequences. Also, a religion that supports discrimination isn't a proper religion. Period.
almost no one actually knows their chromosomes it's not like the majority of people get tested - we make an assumption based on what our genitals look like as a baby
Yeah and since I like studying genetic as an hobby, I have to keep explaining that genetic is hardly perfect, that you can clone someone with exactly same DNA and get vastly different result, because it’s like a blueprint to make an human but that blueprint can not be totally followed and mistakes happen. Can see it by looking identical twins
because apparently what's between your legs is all that matters. To a bigot, if you are born with male parts, you have to be male no matter what and have to like ladies. sorry old timers, modern society is more accepting then that.

My parents have made it clear, they will not respect me as trans male. I'm not forcing them nor prosecuting them for that choice. They just need to realise there are consequences as with Every Other Action in life. If you are choosing to not respect me, then I have a choice to have limited contact with you. Its all choice.

so i was in science class and we're learning about genetics, so obviously there are chromosomes involved and an uneducated short guy asked the "are there more than two genders" and my teacher, as much as i despise her, actually explained the whole gender vs. sex vs. intersex is a thing and this 50 year old woman with christian decor on her desk could be a trans ally so so can you (and then a guy said he wanted to identify as a attack helicopter and said his pronouns were boom/boom so i'm convinced nothing changed in my stupid southern middle school)
I find it interesting how one of if not the largest message of the Bible and many other religions core scriptures is "Love everyone no matter what." and yet somehow some people manage to find a way to twist that into "Love everyone, except these people, you can berrate them however much you want." Transphobes are truly one of a kind.
"OuR fReEdOm Of SpEeCh Is ViOlAtEd BeCaUsE wE HavE tO cHanGe One WOrD," " also your all whiney babies because we aren't allowed to discriminate you" It is frustrating that some people can be feel discriminated against for not being allowed to discriminate people
What I absolutely LOVE about this ‘ad’ is that it is SO north-american centric it’s ridiculous. Thry used every political shit to explain their point like the whole world has the same. Brilliant. And laughable every time.
I hate America’s media, really. In Asia, Europe, and probably all the other beautiful regions too (I can’t speak for them) they have to deal with our influence - a lot of stuff is in English, they watch a lot of our shows, they see us dominating on a ton of social media. We get none of that. In school I lost friends cause they learned I watched anime. People give weird looks when anyone points out that the rest of the world exists, cause it’s not relevant. I don’t like that rhetoric. And that’s media, gosh the politics are terrible. They think trans people only exist in America? Really?
I swear transphobe are always like this. There are so many of them waving around American flags and stuff. And it confuses me, do they think trans people only exist in America? Are trans people trying to take down the American government? What do they feel the need to show so much patriotism while attacking trans people. Being trans and America aren’t opposite, they are barely even related.
Please 😀 do not include Canada in your response. The United States is on its own here. Canada was the fourth country to legalize same sex marriage. Most Canadaians shake their heads at what comes out of the US. Some places already have handicap and family bathrooms which anyone can use if they are more comfortable. Where I live gyms state that locker rooms are for all women including trans and male locker rooms are for all men. Not saying there isn't discrimination, but legally discrimination is not allowed to the lgbtq+ community.
I feel about the phrase “transgenderism” the same way I feel about “lesbianism”, or any gender/sexual identity with “ism” at the end. It just looks silly.
They want to compare a child's right to not salute the flag to a teacher's right to not say the correct pronouns. The difference is, a flag is an object. It doesn't have rights. Not saluting the flag just means "I choose not to outwardly give a show of patriotism" someoen else's refusal to be patriotic doesn't hurt anyone else. It's ceremonial, it's for show. A child is a person, with an identity, and that teacher refused to respect their identity and rights as a person. It is affecting the child, and (because he kept referring to the child as "she" and "her" instead of "he" and "him" like he'd asked) affecting others to also not respect that child's rights.

Lisa Ashwood She would still feel uncomfortable and be confused as why she is being referred to by he/him pronouns. Dysphoria is a trans person being uncomfortable with body parts and pronouns and not everyone experiences dysphoria in the same way. By using the wrong pronouns she would sort of get a feeling of dysphoria because she isn’t being called what she wants to. It would have the same effect without her actually having dysphoria.

I’m gonna say this. As a trans (FTM) when I came out to my three friends, I was met with mostly positivity.
Two of them (both cis, but LGBTQ+, one is hindu and the other is non-religious) respected me and supported me.
The third friend (christian, cis, and hetero) simply said “okay.”
For a while, she would be uncomfortable if the topic of LGBTQ+ was brought up, but she STILL RESPECTED MY NAME/PRONOUNS!!
The worst thing she ever said to me was that she didn’t understand why I would want to be different. Since then, she has become much more accepting of the topic, and only discriminates against me if she is around her parents or my parents (she lets me know beforehand as well!)
I have another friend as well, who is Islamic. As most people know, Muslims cannot support LGBTQ+. But, they can respect it. Meaning. That Islamic people can still use someone’s preferred name/pronouns. It’s not okay to discriminate no matter your religious beliefs, your personal beliefs, etc. just call someone he, she, they, xe, ze, co, thon, whatever pronouns they use and respect their name!

The thing I don't understand is "transracial" which I've heard of a few times. It seems to be this vague extrapolation of being transgender but applied to race instead of gender.

I'm just asking to understand whether it's something I should respect the way I respect changing genders, because I've always felt it to be a nonsensical concept.

Where I'm from, legally hate speech isn't protected under freedom of speech. So like, Nazi swastikas aren't protected as an example. I remember getting into a pretty invloved fight (?) With my dad because of this issue. He describes himself as a libertarian. I'm a lesbian so maybe this affects me a lot more then him but idk. I just couldn't get through to him
@@emi_nemone2792 I half agree and disagree. I don't think it should be illegal to say it but I am completely fine if saying it gets you to lose your job and becoming ostracized. As the video said, "Free speech does not mean freedom from consequence." Basically the only thing that protected speech means is that you can't be put in jail for saying it; that's all.
For example, you can be nazi all you want but if you job finds out you are they have the right to fire you over your choice and people do not have to respect that opinion. I will add though that this is only for choices not for something that is not a choice like sexual orientation or disability. I also don't consider gender a choice and sex (biological) and gender (mental) are not the same thing.
@@Nostripe361 I agree. Just so people know, by hate speech I meant the legal term meaning extreme hatred for a person because of their perceived group. Actual definition is: abusive or threatening speech or writing that expresses prejudice against a particular group, especially on the basis of race, religion, or sexual orientation. Usually hate speech will naturally fall into a hate crime (but not always). Because of this its hard to prove and seek justice legally.
So like, the new indepedent fundamentalist baptist group that advocates for the capital punishment (ie government can just put you to death) of lgbt individuals is hate speech. Talking about wanting to beat someone up because they are (insert race or group here) is also hate speech. Saying you don't believe in the gender spectrum, while I disagree, isn't hate speech.
The year I came out one I corrected one of the boys in my friend group for using the wrong pronouns. He said something along the lines of "Every time I talk to you I get yelled at" and I corrected him by saying "I'm not yelling at you, I'm just trying to correct you so I feel comfortable hanging out with you" and after that he apologised and got use to my new pronouns

Misgendering someone in French class is evil. It's not just the pronouns: everything in French in gendered (binarily, at that). Or at least, all the adjectives are. If you only use the correct name you're essentially doing nothing if you then go on to call the other person "Heureuse" when they're actually "heureux"and "belle" when they're really "beau".
French non-binary people are screwed
I am trash Yeah nb people have to mix the two adjectives like « je suis heureux.se.s »
@@he.said.teenjiejer
a lot of languages have this issue
in spanish its REALLY difficult to use gender neutral sentences.
Some people started ussing the -e at the end of the nouns and adjetives instead of the usual -o (masculine form) or -a (femenine form)
example:
children
-chicas (fem plural)
-chicos (masc plural)
-chiques (neutral plural)
BUT since most of spanish speaking countries uses the guides from the RAE (Real Aademia de la lengua Española/Royal Academy of the Spanish language) and this institution (and A LOT OF PEOPLE) its against the use of "inclusive" language (cause tradition) its reaaaaaaally hard to make any (significative) progress.
(sorry for the rant)
@@PutoMedicoBrujo in brazillian portuguese some ppl are also trying to use the -e at the end to make it neutral, but unfortunatelly the "x" instead of "a" or "o" has been so far spread amongst the people who are willing to make that change that you see it everywhere instead of the -e. it's kind of upsetting bc the "e" is actually fit for nb ppl who prefer those pronous, and also for ppl who have a hard time reading words with an "x" for various reasons as far as i've heard, so the fact that you refuse to use it in text, and therefore adheres to a form of neutrality that isn't fit for speaking makes it seem like you either don't know much about the subject anyway. idk if those changes are being discussed academically and officially, so i can't say if there's an institutional power against it, but i suppose it isn't being discussed bc everyone is settled with the "x" which isn't very appropriate. it's gonna take a while for ppl to start actually saying words with "e", and since we're not on that level yet i don't think it'll be recognized anytime soon. though i admit i don't use that in speech either, and when texting i often try to neutralize the phrase instead of using the "e". maybe i should do my part and start to normalize it. either way, sorry for the long comment as well, this is an interesting topic

There's no way the French teacher just "avoided using pronouns or gendering the student" because it's impossible to teach French (and many other languages) without gendering someone in your speech. What's worse is there's no neutral gender in French, you typically use masc instead, so this guy would literally be going out of his way to be obtuse. (for no reason) He may be able to avoid it in English, largely thanks to neutral speech, but there's just no way this teacher was able to avoid it with French. Wow. He's really banking on people not knowing how other languages, particularly French, work. Gender is woven into the very nature of the language itself, not just the obvious pronoun portion. It changes a number of factors when you speak or write. The concept he magically avoided it is laughably bad.
Edit: Oh man 1k likes is the most I've ever had! asdfghjkl! Thanks guys! Remember it's not hard for a language teacher to stick with your preferred pronoun whether they like it or not.Their whole job is to help you learn things, not to control every aspect of your existence. That's not their right. We don't let teachers do this with religion or ethnicity and gender identity isn't any different. Protect trans kids!
That’s what I was just thinking.
True! Non-binary French people are totally, completely screwed.
@@he.said.teenjiejer That's a very English way of thinking about it lol. French isn't the only language that does this by a loooooong shot. I grew up with the same concept only in Hebrew, Danish, and Spanish. We generally just use masc pronouns, no prob. Using the masc as a default for neutral groups is seen as normal. It's honestly not much of an issue when you're used to thinking that way in the first place if that makes any sense. It's just different. idk. I wouldn't say we're screwed either. I personally don't even think about it tbh. It would be like trying to remove neutral pronouns from English: neat, but bizarre.
People do still attempt to create personal neutral pronouns though for sure. It just doesn't always stick. (just like with English) Heck. A lot of non-binary LGBT people don't even use them because, as far as many are concerned, something already exists.
An example on how gender linguistically is viewed differently in French: My chair, in French, is gendered as female and I would refer to it that way grammatically too... but it's an inanimate object. Like with people animal names also change depending on their gender, (une chatte VS un chat) but most people will just use the masc. (edit: totally just remembered this, but goats actually take the feminine as their neutral pronoun!)
This is part of why I say there's literally no way around gender in French too. People at least have a say in their gender and how they wish to be called, but literally everything in French is gendered no matter how you slice it.
I was just kidding lol I know that much, I take French

yea I think they were only talking about those who are rude and disrespectful towards the trans community just because they’re trans and they don’t agree w/ them. and it’s true that you don’t have to agree with it or support trans people to be respectful. someone I know personally is that way. she’s tried hard to be respectful and try to understand, and she’s really not a bad person, so yeah that’s true ^ ^
DewdropKitten most of the time I think people’s reason for not ‘supporting’ trans people is a lack of understanding, and maybe no cis person can understand what it’s feels like to be trans, but just because you don’t understand someone’s identity doesn’t mean you can’t be respectful to them, be kind, and you ARE going to face repercussions for discrimination. E.g. while you are completely free to refuse to hire a woman in the workplace and claim that women should be at home with the kids, that doesn’t mean that you won’t get fired for treating that woman in a discriminatory way. You’re allowed to say that, no one will force you to work with her, no one can, but you may not have a job at the end of it because your actions always have consequences! Idk why it’s so hard for people to understand??
I hate how people abuse the use of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of being a bully or the freedom of giving death threats. I mean in a way you do, but it doesnt make it right as it is harmful to others and violent and can cause death.

Not using them can cost a life.

As an Asian immigrant, I have to say that refusing to use someone’s name to address them is also a real thing 😂 The phobes know no bounds...
I've even seen stuff like this happen to a cis classmate. She had a name that wasn't particularly gender specific, short hair, and a deeper voice than most high schoolers. Pretty much every teacher and many classmates misgendered her at first but fixed it after being politely corrected. One teacher (we assumed cause he was ancient) just went the whole year calling her "he".
Yikes.
oh that's _yucky..._
A friend of mine is exactly the same appearance wise , except that he has a official female name. He decided that he wanted to be called a male name and that they use the male pronouns. Our teachers didnt because "it's not in your birth certificate, so we cant call you that" (literally what they said). I still call him by female pronouns by accident sometimes but i correct myself whenever I can. They were outright refusing and discriminating against him.
I am basically the opposite some people tell me I have a light voice which I don’t think I have maybe I do and I am very very long hair like some even longer than some of the girls in my classroom so I get called a girl a lot
That happens to me too. I have a gender neutral name, short hair, and a slightly deeper voice. Substitutes always misgender me. All. the. time.

But, i got a strange feeling that i wanted to go on CZcams, like it was the only thing that would make me feel better. I saw this channel in my recommendations and clicked on it immediately. Video, after video, I couldn’t stop watching with a stupid grin on my face. Jamey, this channel, and even the people in the comments section, made me feel like I have a family, like I have a home. I didn’t feel so scared about myself anymore and even felt proud about this pink white and blue pride I have in myself. I had a conversation with my sister last night, when I told her I didn’t want to get surgery, or go on T. She said something that I couldn’t stop thinking about. “But then you’ll never be a real boy”. After watching Jamey, seeing his story, and hearing many of yours, I know that’s not true. This family and this home has proved to me that I am who I am. And nothing and no one can change that,

What? Only when they misgender a cis-person? No, they would also be offended if you misgender their dog or even their car, which doesn't really have a gender. I wonder where the argument of chromosomes, biology, reproduction or religion went, when one of them gets offended because someone stupidly used the "wrong" pronouns (although anything other than "it" would be wrong) for a car that doesn't have a gender, but they use "she" when referring to their car, boat, guitar or whatever, and they expect you to respect that.

Father works in the training department for a casino. At his last job, at the competing casino, he worked training and hr. One of the security guards at the last place refused to let in and tried to beat a trans woman. She hadn't transitioned medically or with her id. She had a purse, was wearing make up, and was wearing a dress. She, rightfully, took it to hr. The guard was fired, he had done this multiple times, and a new training was made for everyone on how to act around trans people. Fathers making the same training at the new casino. It hasn't happened here yet and there are actually quite a few trans people and lesbians working here. If the guard had stopped at just talking about her behind her back, which is still a sh!tty thing to do, then he wouldnt have gotten fired. That is freedom of speech, even if hateful. He probably would've gotten a talking to but a new entire 2 day training wouldnt have been created. He crossed the line when he got violent. Even just denying entry would've been crossing the line since she was old enough to enter. He got the appropriate consequence with being fired. He wasnt arrested cause I live in a state with the gay and trans panic claus but he probably should've been. This is why I'm scared to be openly gender fluid here. The fact that I can be beaten or killed just because I sometimes identify differently than how I was assigned terrifies me. I'm 14 had have been bullied a lot for just being bi/pan.

"Thought and language control was totally foreign to America until recently!"
*Laughs in Native*
Yeah, language control, never ever happened in the US before. Native children weren't kidnapped and forced to speak only English, and no one has ever harrassed immigrants for using their first or heritage languages between themselves. /s
America's no stranger to totalitarianism and cultural erasure
That language control part was funny considering you can't even say shit or fuck on American TV without getting literally censored. 😂
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't language control also enacted upon indigenous Canadians in residential schools? If so then it's not even exclusive to America as a country
@@alissaandry1332
It was very common in many countries, also for example in the UdSSR, enforcing Russian as the only official language pretty much everywhere.
It's also still a problem today, for instance in Ukraine. The Ukrainian government tried to suppress the minority of Russians (later 'separatists' in the Krim conflict) by trying to forbid Russian as another official language. No wonder they finally had enough and wanted home to mother Russia.
The German minority of South Tyrol (Italy) also had to fight for their right to keep German as their officially accepted second language repeatedly.
The list continues.
Saying people weren't transgender in the past is like saying people weren't made out of atoms in the past because it is a recent discovery.
Conservatives be like: ItS jUsT mY oPinIoN bRo” then proceeded to be blatantly racist and discriminatory
I can’t oppress people so therefore I’m being oppressed
blackkakari that is not what’s happening tho. Nobody is legally forcing you to use people’s correct pronouns. Not one person has ever been put in prison, or fined, or ever had any sort of legal punishment for misgendering a person. The people who are being punished are those discriminating against trans people. If there were establishments discriminating against Christians, I would be right there with you fighting against that.
@@Hellooo134 But you're wrong. Repeated misgendering can land you a one million dollar fine in New York City. It is very much illegal in much of the Western world and can result in prison time. Especially the European Union.
blackkakari name a single person who has been put in prison for JUST misgendering. Not for harassment or discrimination(well IMO misgendering is a form of discrimination but you know what I’m talking about) or anything else, JUST misgendering. I’m asking for one person.
blackkakari I’m sorry but why is it such a big deal to just respect people and call them what they want to be called? You don’t HAVE to agree with them. But purposely misgendering them and calling them something that causes severe distress and depression is fucked up, whether you agree with their life or not. It doesn’t really affect you. Just use the right pronouns and move on.
@@aaronpowell7050 What is more harmful is pandering to and coddling them. People need to comes to terms with dissenting views and learn to live with it. It makes them stronger. All off this SJW bullshit is why leftists have no coping mechanisms and go berserk whenever they are challenged.
Would that lady in the video like to be called "man" and "he" every day even though she identifie herself as a woman? I don't think so.
@Isak Lidman I'm a man who identifies as a man. If people kept repeatedly using female pronouns to address me, I'd simply tell them to fuck off. I wouldn't try to have them arrested. Because I have a fucking spine.
@@blackkakari you again. Okay then, sure. If it is your teacher or co-worker you can't exactly tell them to fuck off.
Second. You are a man who identifies as a man? Okay, so i Jamie. So that sentence did not make sense.
@@bluesphere1999 That sentence made perfect sense. I'm a man. I identify as a man. My gender and preferred pronouns are male.
Also, who says you can't tell your teacher or co-worker to fuck off? I've done it and I'm just fine.
@@blackkakari A man who identifies as a man. There is a perfect polish saying for this. Okay, water is wet.
And no, you can't tell most of people to simply fuck off, because they might fire or expell you. A teacher in our school could send you to the principal and fail your lesson.
@@bluesphere1999 If you can't tell someone to fuck off, then simply ignore them. And don't police my grammar.
(Long comment): Prager U doesn't understand the importance pronouns have for transgender people. It seems PU thinks transgender people are transgender because they're (supposedly) being needlessly picky about how they identify. I believe PU also thinks transgender people are lying to themselves, considering PU seems to think "gender" exclusively refers to biological sex.
That false gender/biological-sex relationship is actually something I was taught as fact as a young kid by a *public-school* employee! She told my class how "gender" is a less-crude way of saying "biological sex," and I had no reason to question that until I was out of school. My religious teachings also didn't help things. I thought more like PU until only recently.
I'm really not for policing speech outside of employment...but the *workplace* rules protecting against transgender discrimination are definitely justified. Thank you for enlightening me on this.
Using the right pronouns for someone takes so little effort and shouldn’t cause distress. Getting misgendered causes a lot of distress. It’s very simple.
I refuse

i just find it wild how she can even say the exact words "intentionally, wilfully and repeatedly misgender a person" and still manage to frame that as a perfectly acceptable thing to do?
why do transphobes want to be opressed SOOOOO BAD
Making yourself the victim when you're actually the ahole is a pretty good strategy, loads of white old rich men have convinced themselves they're the most persecuted beings on the planet. When you've been privileged since time immemorial equality can feel like a downgrade I guess.

A friend of mine had trouble with a professor when I was in film school because she kept misgendering him and kept trying to force him to use his identity in our assignments because “art” or something. I can’t believe how someone could go out of their way to make someone uncomfortable just because they “don’t get it”. He finally told her off (long after I’d left that school) and I’m glad he did.
fun fact, neopronouns are older then the THEORY OF EVOLUTION ITSELF, i would call that enough time for conservatives to adjust to them.
I view it like being racist. If a person is racist in the workplace, they would get fined. Their argument of “it is my belief” is the same thing people said during the civil war regarding whether *people should be allowed to be treated as people* . This is very similar to me in the way that people fought against it, but obviously not in the struggles. If the video talked about being of color in the video instead of being trans, they would come off as complete idiots, and they still do now. I just worry about the people who learn all of their information on trans people through a google search and a poorly researched add
I agree - it isn't about your opinion, it's about respect towards a protected group.
@@affadoodletigressjointacco932 Opinion: Pineapple on pizza is an abomination.

@@Zaolan123 yep exactly.
Even a google search will give you more info than these ads. A lot of their research is unreliable. or they cherry pick data and skew statistics. They use graphs, but half of the time, they are missing a vital part of the graph. Or even showing something that isn't even graphable.
I don't think someone should be fined for being bigoted but it's completely justified reason to be fired. It's a valid reason why someone would stop supporting your business. No reason to complain about the consequences of willingly and knowingly be insensitive.
The same people would harass me for me simply stating that I do not believe in a god and scream that it was THEIR freedoms being persecuted while rioting in front of my house.
@Transgender Service Dog That's extremely hypocritical of them. I believe in free speech, including hate speech. What I don't believe in is harassment.
@@sd7785 If you follow someone around and keep repeating it over and over again, then it's harassment. If you say it once and then leave the other person alone, it's not. If you refuse to say what someone tells you to say, that's not harassment either.
@@sd7785 Outlawing hateful speech seems so innocuous. Well, no one should be subjected to blatant bigotry, right? So lets outlaw it. We'll arrest people who violate our hate speech laws. Who decides what is and isn't hate speech? Why, the establishment, of course! I'm sure they won't use this extremely nebulous precedent to censor legitimate criticism.
@@sd7785 "Your rights end at the point which someone else's body begins". Yeah, that point would be legit if you were talking about the right to throw a fist. I'm talking about words. Words don't cause physical harm. Your reaction to them can. I could threaten that I'm going to kill myself because of something you said. That doesn't leave you at fault if I actually go through with it.
Laws designed to curb legitimate hate speech have _always_ been abused. "Hate speech" can mean whatever you want it to mean. Saying that you think Walmart is an evil corporation could be easily declared hate speech. It all depends on the agenda of those in charge. That's why people in some parts of America can get arrested for "hate speech" simply for reporting a black man committing a crime.
@@sd7785 Threats are a different matter. That's illegal everywhere and for good reason.
The thing about hate speech is that you can walk away from it. You can speak out against it. You can ridicule or dismiss it. Can it cause psychological harm? Absolutely. That's why you grow a spine and move on. Protecting everyone from hearing things they don't want to hear will just make them more sensitive to emotional harm because they haven't had the opportunity to develop a tolerance.
I don't support the right to hate speech because I support hate speech. I'm against hate speech laws because they are far to easy to be abused. What starts as censoring legitimate hate _always_ devolves into censoring legitimate criticism. That's why people in most of Europe can be arrested for "hate speech" simply because they criticize the socioeconomic ramifications of mass migration.
Reminder: Having free spreech doesn't mean discrimination doesn't come with consequences. Also, a religion that supports discrimination isn't a proper religion. Period.
It’s amazing they just forget all the trans people who have been killed for their identity or lost their job.

almost no one actually knows their chromosomes it's not like the majority of people get tested - we make an assumption based on what our genitals look like as a baby
I'm Turner's so I'm missing a chromosome.
Yeah and since I like studying genetic as an hobby, I have to keep explaining that genetic is hardly perfect, that you can clone someone with exactly same DNA and get vastly different result, because it’s like a blueprint to make an human but that blueprint can not be totally followed and mistakes happen. Can see it by looking identical twins
Maxwell Collins FR ppl always talk abt their chromosomes but they prob don’t even know how many they have cuz they failed biology😭😭😭
because apparently what's between your legs is all that matters. To a bigot, if you are born with male parts, you have to be male no matter what and have to like ladies. sorry old timers, modern society is more accepting then that.

My parents have made it clear, they will not respect me as trans male. I'm not forcing them nor prosecuting them for that choice. They just need to realise there are consequences as with Every Other Action in life. If you are choosing to not respect me, then I have a choice to have limited contact with you. Its all choice.

I hate America’s media, really. In Asia, Europe, and probably all the other beautiful regions too (I can’t speak for them) they have to deal with our influence - a lot of stuff is in English, they watch a lot of our shows, they see us dominating on a ton of social media. We get none of that. In school I lost friends cause they learned I watched anime. People give weird looks when anyone points out that the rest of the world exists, cause it’s not relevant. I don’t like that rhetoric. And that’s media, gosh the politics are terrible. They think trans people only exist in America? Really?
I swear transphobe are always like this. There are so many of them waving around American flags and stuff. And it confuses me, do they think trans people only exist in America? Are trans people trying to take down the American government? What do they feel the need to show so much patriotism while attacking trans people. Being trans and America aren’t opposite, they are barely even related.
Please 😀 do not include Canada in your response. The United States is on its own here. Canada was the fourth country to legalize same sex marriage. Most Canadaians shake their heads at what comes out of the US. Some places already have handicap and family bathrooms which anyone can use if they are more comfortable. Where I live gyms state that locker rooms are for all women including trans and male locker rooms are for all men. Not saying there isn't discrimination, but legally discrimination is not allowed to the lgbtq+ community.

They want to compare a child's right to not salute the flag to a teacher's right to not say the correct pronouns.
The difference is, a flag is an object. It doesn't have rights. Not saluting the flag just means "I choose not to outwardly give a show of patriotism" someoen else's refusal to be patriotic doesn't hurt anyone else. It's ceremonial, it's for show.
A child is a person, with an identity, and that teacher refused to respect their identity and rights as a person. It is affecting the child, and (because he kept referring to the child as "she" and "her" instead of "he" and "him" like he'd asked) affecting others to also not respect that child's rights.
