So glad transwidows are coming out. They are seeing up close and prersonal how destructive this ideologey is.
How AGPs are. Leave HSTS out of this
I found this interview so helpful for me, as I'm currently going through something very similar.
Good luck sister. You are not alone.
I’m sorry. I hope the situation has improved now. It must be really hard.
Shannon's husband had many other issues before deciding he was transgender. I have a friend who had a similar experience. I suspect that my friend's husband (she also wrote a book, no longer published) and I feel both of these men were sociopaths.
It is a lie that makes a person crazy/sick. - Martha Beck
I’m currently going through this. 😕
I’m sorry. What a surreal and bitter thing to live through… how are things now?
I dated a couple of these guys for a short time. Even that was traumatizing. Sorry for her to actually have to be married to him for so long.
Maybe we should make sure people find out they're trans earlier in life, so when people marry, they know what they're getting into? My partner for 20 and wife for 14 years knew beforehand I was trans, and would eventually transition. We still love and support each other.
What a crazy thing to have to live through
Fascinating!
Start asking where the content is coming from. Is it coming from the community? Really? Where does the money come from?
One of the Pritzker billionaires is trans and behind the policy changes, lobbying and funding.
Yep. I understand WPATH supplied advice on changing the definition in 2012 to qualify this behaviour for Obama care, but treatment to recover from it is not available.
A lot of 'useful idiots' are now stranded with crippled and dismantled bodies.
This is an op. A lot of the work starts in Canada and Scotland - gender stuff, speech laws.
Please eloborate. Trans people have always existed and are valid but I feel there are more powerful people out there messing this up and using vulnerable people to create animosity. By over medicalisation etc
They always up the ante
Jamie sounds like a frustrated artist/ creative.
Hes way more than creative and it ain't good
Wow this hard to listen to.
I get the impression she's enjoying this. I suspect she has problems with intimacy.
If you people didn't make transpeople hide, they'd end up with someone who truly loves and accepts them for who they are. If you want somebody to blame Shannon, blame yourself and other people like you, that make them have to hide in the first place.
@TiLoRaine Oh fu ck off. No-one is making trans people hide. They're celebrated, they're a protected class, they cannot be criticized. I think that's what's behind so many people suddenly deciding they were born in the wrong body. They want the cachet and privilege that comes with being "special". Shannon had a "bait and switch" pulled on her. That's extremely vile.
Oh look another victim shamer
@@sleonard6 Shannon isn't a victim. Shannon is a bully and an abuser. The victim is the one you all victimize.
@@TiLoRaine Ok because demanding others submit to your will regardless of how comfortable they feel is not abusive in any way. Got it.
@@sleonard6 That's not what happened, but I wouldn't expect any less than your mental gymnastics.
This is what it must've been like when Feminism took hold
Wrong, trans agenda is just a continuation of male supremacy and/or entitlement.
And yet the TERFs just can't join the dots. Neo pronouns, gender is not sex, oppression is the cause of disateisfaction, sex is nothing to do with reproduction. It's all sadly familiar.
I refer friends to Mary Harrington as much as I can, but being past child bearing age it's not welcome news for childless menopausal women who spent their lives blaming men for everything.
Wierdly reasonable, strangely unaffected. I can imagine a lot of women being far more bitter and resentful having been treated like this.
Do you really think the way she speaks in an interview barely half an hour long reflects how deeply she has actually been affected?
She would have probably left him anyways 😂, women file for divorce 80 percent of the time 🤷♂️🥴
Have you read her book? She sounded pretty happy in the relationship to that point.
That’s not what that statistic means. 50% of US marriages result in divorce. Out of those divorces 70-80% are initiated by women. It doesn’t mean 80% of marriages end in divorce.
@@jamiejones8508ha, interesting, she certainly doesn't sound as bitter and resentful as most of the widows I have heard from. She sounds like she's enjoying the fame.
@XA1985 The relevant information is not the percentage that filed for divorce, but the reasons why they filed for divorce...and not all divorce paperwork will accurately reflect the actual reasons why, because it is public, and not everyone wants the painful events that led to the divorce to be public, seen by family, friends, neighbours, and particularly their children.
90% of the time if they're college-educated
It's a sad story. Of two people who turn out to be incompatible and who eventually drift apart. Let's keep the bigotry and hatred out of it. Millions of couples split up every week, people change, this is just a variation. It really doesn't matter what the reasons are. No one is being 'lost to gender identity' - that's absurd and looking for something to blame. You are just incompatible in the end. I feel for you. It's no one's fault.
It's society's fault for creating a dangerous environment, where people can't feel comfortable being who they really are.
@@TiLoRaine Totally, totally agree
