    That's the thing though it more often than not makes them mentally feel worse. You really aren't educated on anything you talk about here

    Also lmao if you seriously think amputating a body part is a reasonable form of treatment

    This isn’t true.

    A vast majority of the difficulties trans people go through are social. They have difficulties feeling accepted by society & because of that they tend to struggle with mental illness. Nonetheless, them being able to be who they are does improve their general well-being when ignoring outside factors. It’s how society responds to it that’s the issue.

    I knew this was going to be your retort lol. I usually don’t read the huffingtonpost but the article cites various academic studies. The study that shows improvement of life among trans people who have surgery is right here. Not that you actually care though. I’m willing to bet you’ve never even met a trans person before let alone talked to one about their experiences being transgender.

    What about women who are depressed/insecure over being called flat-chested all their lives? Or who look prematurely aged due to diabetes? Why aren't their “treatments” covered?

    Very funny. I’m sure this post will get a lot of likes despite me proving Cain to be wrong.

    I can't be alone in thinking just how in the middle I am. Both parties are complete s---. I can't stomach the leftist SJWs(who hate me btw because I'm a white male) that have taken over the Democratic party and I sure as f--- can't stand the slack-jawed, Bible-Thumping r----- Trump zealots.

    I hate both parties and just how extreme they are. I really, really miss Obama and his era.

    Side note- I hope Emma Gonzalas gets hit by a f---ing bus.

    I don’t mind the Democratic Party getting more progressive but the thought of Bernie and/or Cory Booker running in 2020 makes me sick. Fully expecting a hard push from the progressive branch of the Democratic Party for one of those two come primaries.

    I see the Obama era as a precursor to and (at least in its current form) a necessary condition for the SJW, anti-white male era that we're experiencing now. Chalking up his low approval to the "hidden racism" of white people in his second term wasn't helpful, especially when they voted for him in droves in the first place, and celebrating the year white people will no longer be a majority in their own country (~2050) was plain disturbing. Not to mention we have the man himself to thank for this absurd conversation we were just having about sex change surgery coverage. Setting race relations back decades and making transgender rights a civil rights issue was his idea of “progress,” and the SJW progressives have adopted these issues to a fanatical level. (As the saying goes, “JFK wanted to send a man to the moon. Obama wanted to send a man to the ladies room.”)

    Meanwhile Trump, a Manhattan business liberal, is about as middle of the road as you can get. He basically represents an older version of neoliberalism back when Democrats still had some sanity left, and I think his more lukewarm supporters understand this. He only looks extreme if you take all the media hype at face value and assume he's the polar opposite to the SJWs when at the end of the day he's really just a mild reformer.

    Yeah, I’m pretty in the middle too. I like most of the social policies of the democratic party, but I don’t like how quick they are to want to raise taxes and expand government. I like some of the fiscal policies of the republican party, but hate how archaic they are when it comes to social policy. I’m a libertarian, but not the borderline-anarchist type. I have problems with some libertarian policies also.

    Off topic but did you march yesterday @Enigma ? My uncle sent me pics of the march, pretty big turnout.

    Not in the SF march but people had organized a smaller march in the town I live in so I went to that. The NYT actually featured a picture of some of my old high school classmates who participated in the march:

    Yeah, I saw from snap chats from friends that a ton of people came out. Not surprised, San Franciscans & the Bay Area in general usually show up in numbers to events like this. You should look up photos of the pride parade after gay marriage was legalized....holy.

    It’s irritating because congressional leaders should be hammered with questions when legislation like this gets passed under the table. We’ll likely never hear anything from Mitch McConnel or Paul Ryan about this.

    Like I said before, I don’t really care much for this Stormy Daniels story. I couldn’t care less who trump f---s but this is alarming:



    This is just disgusting but not surprising:



    Evangelicals are hypocrite for voting for this guy. That’s for d--- sure.
