fair.

I don't even know what sealioning is. If that's a term for 'rage bait everyone so I can argue my political points in a malevolent way with an alterior motive'

Then the answer is no to sea lioning.

Look, so here's the thing. I personally don't see how either side left or right can have empathy or compassion or understanding on the things they care about, if no one wants to hear eachother out.

Lemny is a prodominently left leaning platform. I get that y'all believe and support certain issues because they mean something to you personally and yall are very opinionated about certain things especially hot button issues like this.

That right there, peaks my curiosity. Not that it is an irrelevant topic. It is very relevant.

I feel like if neither side can't just hush their mouth and listen, then how will you be able to understand and empthathise?

We already know, and I know foe dam sho lol that we disagree on a LOT.

I don't want to argue, i want to skip all that noise and just listen. I know what type of space I'm in.

I know I'm not gunna change minds so why would I waste my time doing that?

People change on their own. That's not up to me and i get that. That's why I refuse to argue here, or anything like that it's a waste of both our times.

I'd rather just listen and see what I can I learn and why yall think what you think and that's it.

I guess the only reason is because there are so many. Let's say we lost most of those options, and those were the only two contenders line which would you choose. That's all

I like the purple theme a lot

Thanks a lot for expanding on all that. Yea I don't agree with conversion camps. like at all if your kid feels a certain type of way, they just do. Some people may be disappointed that their kid comes out as this or that.

But it is what it is. It might not be what you want as a parent but that is not for you to decide.

I mean, if knew someone considering conversion therapy? I'd have a sit down with them. Because I don't agree with that either.

Anyway, thank you for going into more detail ! Have a good one

Would you be ok explaining further on why you think this? Just ignore my comment if you're not interested. Thank you for the reply

Appreciate your response thank you

Thank you for your input. As I've said in another comment, abuse is abuse.

But in your opinion, is there something people should be looking for specifically?

Some consider denying to acknowledge their children by their perfered pro noun abuse. Is this for example a form of abuse?

Asking that for clarification. I just feel like abuse towards trans kids from their family looks a specific way and I'm not trying to lump it in along with other forms of abuse.

It doesn't matter what your opinion is on this and how you feel about it I'm not going to argue with you. I am just curious to know what you think and that is all. You don't have to answer if you don't feel like it thanks again

Yes, the right does, in fact hammer the point home about detransitioning. I will not deny that.

In your opinion, is there, or what could be a 'good' middle ground on the issue of some people who detransition.? Do you think there ever will be middle ground on it?

I watched a talk with Blair white and some others who are trans talj about detransitioning. I don't remember the name of the YouTube channel that hosted it.

However, I can find it if you'd like for further clarification.

Anyway, that seemed to be the general consensus on detransitioning. That we don't know that much about it, and the only thing we can do is learn from it and add it to research.

In your opinion, do you think that is the only option we'll have ?

Thanks again for answering

Thank you. Yea, I've heard bad things too about foster care. It's really a sad reality for some. Especially kids who have downs .I watched a documentary where they put the girls on downs on birth control because they get raped :/ that's...awful..

Thank you for all your input. Hope you have a good one

Thank you for your reply.

Dumb question. But since this is a very specific topic, can you explain more about what abuse from family towards their transgender children looks like?

Sounds like a no brainer. Abuse is Abuse. But maybe family members are doing things they don't consider to be Abusive. That's not excusing Abuse in this scenario.

Let me provide an example.

Some people think taking your kid or spouse to those Christian 'make you not gay anymore' camps, isnt Abusive.

I think doing something like that is not helpful. Only speaking of children and not adults, but I can see how that is Abusive.
