Yes he gets it

reply

What does he get? A prize for parroting the same liberal nonsense that is continually flowing from Hollywood?

Men are men, women are women. No surgery in the world will change the genetics of either sex. The chromosomes are what they are when you are still in the womb and no amount of dress up or make believe will change it. If someone wants to run around pretending to be something, who cares... but don't expect the world to accept the deluded view of what is and isn't real.

You cannot change your sex anymore than you can change your race. It is what it is. If you stuck Arnold Schwarzenegger in a dress he would still be a male... you could whack his penis off and give him a boob job but he would still be a male. How is that so difficult for liberal to understand?

reply

Indeed. It is sad that ideology can make so many people lose their common sense!

reply

people should live there lives without scrutiny stop it you dont get it

reply

So you would let a 50 years old guy sleep in the same bed than your little daughter if he says that he identifies himself as a little girl. Because hey, people should live there lives without scrutiny!! who are you to scrutiny him and say he's not a little girl? 😄

reply

Thats a not a comparison look im straight who cares about everyone you sound like the Gestapo

reply

Just Joogle it !

reply

I pray that people like you never hold any positions of authority.

P.S. Have you ever heard of punctuation?

reply

reply

Shut your ass, illiterate nut job. You write like a four year old and and it makes your incoherent rubbish all the more incoherent.

reply

Don't disrespect Ghetto Kids!

reply

Lol!

reply

"people should live there lives without scrutiny"....EXACTLY...SO IF I LIVE MY LIFE BY EMBRACING TRUTH,LIKE SURGERY CANT MAKE A MAN INTO A WOMAN,WHY SHOULD I BE SCRUTINIZED FOR MY (CORRECT) OPINION?....OH WAIT....YOU JUST DONT GET IT.🥱

reply

“People should live their lives without scrutiny.”

Agreed. And that includes women who say that people with penises, either intact or turned inside out are not women and never will be and don’t get to decide what women are and rename us as some fringe group who are obligated to agree with their fantasies which deny science.

reply

im sure that was done in one of his comedy films lol

reply

What are you trying to gain by denying the experience of people who are transgender?
Do they not deserve to express themselves?
Is the world a better place when we all observe an antique, binary view of what the human experience is for millions of people?
What's in it for you?

reply

No one is denying anyone the right to dress up and play make believe. The only issue is the reality is a man that tries to pretend to be a woman is just pretending. Doesn't matter to what degree they take the charade they are not and will not ever be a woman. If a white man put on blackface and ran around claiming to be black would you embrace him as black or simply brush him off as some nut job. That same thing applies to transgenders. If they want to dress up but still understand that they are nothing more than pretenders so be it, no one cares about that... but when a man start trying to get everyone to treat him as if he were an actual woman then that is a problem because he is not a woman and never will be just the the white man in blackface will never be a black man.

In the end people who want to go along with the transgender and accept them as women are actually just enabling a deluded person. You wouldn't do that with other mentally ill people so why do it when the mental illness is related to their sex?

reply

"Is the world a better place when we all observe an antique, binary view of what the human experience is for millions of people? What's in it for you?"

Despite your question going unanswered I thought that was very eloquently put snepts.

It's a question I often have when looking through these types of discussions "why does it matter so much to you?" I've never understood the level of disgust and vitriol that comes up when my philosophy is simply 'live and let live'.

reply

It matters when the transgender man that has been a man for decades enters a sports competition where all the other contestants are actual women that never had the advantage of those decades of muscle building while having testosterone flowing through them at rates greater than an old East German athlete during the cold war. When that happens the ridiculousness of pretending that a man can somehow become a woman is highlighted at the expense of women. That is the easiest instance for anyone to see, if you don't understand from that how this is just dumb as shit then there is no hope for you.

In most instances I can agree with "live and let live" but I draw the line when it starts to impact other people and that is what is happening when people start embracing transgenders as actual women. They are not, if they want to pretend and accept that it is just make believe I don't care, nor should anyone else... but the moment they start demanding that others embrace that make believe as reality then it is no longer just them that are impacted.

reply

Entertaining their lunacy has gotten out of hand.
Has the world gone mad?

reply

Transgenderism is a mental disease in the same vein as people who believe they're Napoleon Bonaparte.
On what basis does the world accept one as the norm and discard the other?

They all belong in a loony bin all the same, getting actual medical help instead of the circus we got.

reply

Oh my god you are just awful

reply

He gets it alright...

"If I want to keep making movies, I better tow the line now before the mob comes for me."

reply

Im on The side of life this isnt about towing for some celebs its about humanity get your faxs straight

reply

LMAO...AWKWARD.

reply

Throw all transgender loonies in concentration camps and gas them. EZ.

reply

Your made Racism clear wow your a disgrace to humanity

reply

Next thing you know, you'll be kneeling in front of some trans "woman" and sucking their cock

reply

Good for him, standing up for what is right. People should be supportive and accepting of trans individuals.

reply

She didn't say they shouldn't have rights. In fact, she expressed sympathy for and support of their community. She said they aren't biological/naturally born women, which they are not. This should not be offensive.

reply

It isn't offensive. The irony is that the idiots that think what she said was offensive would also say that some white guy in blackface was offensive when it is the exact same thing. Some pretending to be something they are not.

reply

Well, if we need an opinion on what being a woman is, his is clearly more worthwhile than JK Rowling's.

You know, JK Rowling, a woman.

Stunning an brave.

reply

You could argue that neither are in a position to comment on the trans experience at all.

But everyone has an opinion. Listen or ignore, it makes no difference, next week the knives will be out for some other opinionated starlet anyway. It’s all just white noise.

reply

JK is not commenting on trans experience. She's commenting on a woman's experience. And the fact that a man identifying as a woman can not have the same shared life experience as a woman born a woman.

reply

Yeah yeah. I do understand. I just don’t care what she thinks.

reply

I just don’t care what she thinks.

Which is the whole point here. Good job with invalidating a woman and her life experience. Stunning and brave.

reply

I profess to be neither. I’m sure Rowling is on the edge of her seat waiting for my validation, by the way. She cares as much for my opinion as I do hers or you do mine. Stunning, brave and completely irrelevant.

reply

On this, we agree.

reply

Fabulous

What were we talking about again?

reply

Something, something, someone's upset about someone else's dumb thoughts, something, something, who gives AF.

reply

Cool yes, indeed. I agree. Or disagree. You suck. I’m right. Or wrong. Cheerio

reply

SCREW YOU Daniel. How dare you? You don't know anything about being a woman. You will never bleed, never give birth, never be at risk of ovarian cancer. SHO SUT UP

reply

I respect Daniels and J.K. Rowling's view. There ya go, wasn't too hard.

I miss when Twitter was used to tweet about going on picnics and favourite ice cream toppings, today it's full of obsessed and rabid people.

reply

Fuck all these entitled millionaires LOL.
Just because they're famous doesn't mean we should eat their every word like it's Gospel.

reply

This is probably the first time I find myself agreeing with Rowling since her far left shpeel some odd years ago. But she's right on this. And Daniel is wrong. All he's doing is trying to stay relevant. If you have to take hormones to be a woman, then you aren't a biological woman. That's just a fact. All it takes is a shutdown of society and the hormones producers to no longer manufacture pills, for every single trans person to revert back to their biological selves. We really do live in a clown world right now. The same people that mock antivaxxers and flat earthers for denying science and fact, somehow, are the same people insisting there's 81.5 genders and that biology doesn't take precedence over feelings. Unbelievable.

reply

Right. It is very sad that the world have come to this.

reply

So true. Once again women are told by another group of aggressive men to shut up and that they have no rights. Shocking. Only this time it’s not because we’re women. This time we’re absolutely nothing at all. Women aren’t allowed to have opinions on what makes a woman; not unless they’re born with penises.

reply

So stunning, much brave. Wow.

reply

Very spoken.

reply

Sounds like Harry's been hitting the bottle again.
