Transgenderism Theories

article image placeholderUploaded by @ZackPreston
Oh, cool. I got five minutes to blab on here. Hey, this is a neat app. I'm really glad that this thing exists. So thanks for listening, whoever is. I have a theory about what's going on with the uptick, the seeming uptick in our society of transgenderism. Or I don't know if you could call it hermaphroditism, but in certain animal species, based on circumstances, environment, all that stuff, certain portions of the population have been known to turn hermaphroditic

I'm also Gen X to be more accepting of the fluidity that is gender, that is sexuality, and just embrace it and let it be and don't be threatened by it. And it's just such an obvious thing to everyone who's awake right now who understands that it's not a threat and it's not something that should be put into some kind of corner of society

Hey, thanks for that really warm welcome. This is exciting. What a cool app. So, yeah, I'm just looking. It had been a few a couple of years or something since I looked up the statistic. Excuse me, but I'm seeing here from The Guardian that it looks like they're saying if you follow the curve from the 2017 sperm decline meta analysis, I don't know from what publication that comes

I mean, way back in the mean, that's that's how Jerry Springer, you know, made his his money was parading trans girls on the stage and making fun of them. But we're not a punchline. When Caitlyn came out, there were people who were closeted like myself, and I thought, wow, there's someone who's like me, and maybe I can have the nerve to tell someone I love

@ZackPreston My unsolicited 2 cents. 🤪

I don't know that yet. But we do know that because of ideas of what it is to be a man or a woman, what it is to behave certain ways within society, how we're raised and conditioned, et, et cetera, cetera, et cetera, all of these moving pieces affect what we begin to see

Hey, Zach. Thanks for posting. Yeah, this really is a recurring theme in nature and all species. I've always felt it to be a natural thing. And I bet 100% of people, as they grow through their life, experiences these thoughts in one way or another. So, again, thanks for posting. And by the way, I saw your photo and love the shoes, dude. Bye

Also, I think maybe I don't understand why you were using the hermaphrodic references, because I don't really see how that fits into what the discussion was about. Plus, I think that should probably just be dropped completely. However, I'm just jumping in to say that my thought on it, I also identify as trans and non binary. And I have thought about this uptick, and it's not that there's suddenly more of us. It's that we have representation, right?

Hey, guys, thank you so much for that input and the education on those words. I was going to just kind of let your statements speak for themselves, because I feel like that's important. But I will just say that I, of course, meant no harm to anyone by using using that particular word. And I honestly didn't know that either of those words were words that should be excluded now. So thank you for letting me know that

The other thing that comes to mind on some of the conversation around the fertility factor, if you think about it, in the last 150 years we have bombarded ourselves in the planet with more chemicals than we have ever had in the summation of thousands of years before. So in such a small period of time, how does the human body in its natural evolution adapt to such an extreme bombardment of radicals?

Even in my childhood, being gay was essentially equated with being feminine. And now, of course, we know there are gay men that are extremely masculine. They don't have a feminine trait in their body. And so it goes to show, like, how limiting language is and how limited language doesn't allow people to see who they are authentically
