Then I’m not sure what you point was supposed to be. If lifesaving surgery is mutilation then mutilation isn’t inherently a bad thing and isn’t an argument against gender affirming surgery.

“I don’t have any idea how transitioning works so I’m gonna cry about it” There, fixed your comment for you
Then removing a ruptured appendix is also mutilation by that logic.
Yep, like I literally called God “your sky daddy” and they still believed I’m Christian. Lol
Yep. I had someone “explain” to me that the only reason I had morals was that I was a good god fearing Christian. Because they couldn’t fathom the idea that someone could treat others well and not want to harm anyone without fearing god. When I said I’m an atheist they absolutely refused to believe me. Like they walked away from the conversation convinced I am Christian solely because I’d never killed anyone.
Bingo. Like I don’t need the threat of eternal punishment to not hurt people. I don’t hurt people because it’s wrong.
Yep, hypocrisy is great ain’t it? I’ve had people tell me that being LGBT is a religion and therefore it shouldn’t be allowed to be taught to children, and then in the same paragraph say that all kids should be raised Christian. I’ve also had people tell me I was too young to know in my mid 20s that I wanted a hysterectomy, but then turn around and defend circumcision. Here’s the thing though, while yes, I did want a hysterectomy, it was done for medical necessity. In a two sentence comment someone defended newborn circumcision, and then told me my doc should be in jail “for mutilating the genitals of a child”. Because apparently people in their 20s are children.
Yep. Like literally. I had a “bedtime Bible stories for kids” book. Nothing like a nice story about planet wide genocide to help your kid fall asleep.
Yep. And yet the same people who squawk about the “LGBT religion indoctrinating kids” have no issues indoctrinating kids in actual religions.
Yep, I remember struggling to learn to pronounce transubstantiation when I was 7 and in speech therapy because I was struggling to pronounce anything correctly. So I was just forced to practice it over and over and over again.
Also Roman Catholic. I was raised that it wasn’t symbolic, but actually transformed into his real flesh and blood. 🤮
Same, that number is a severe underestimate. 80 kids on a swim team over 3-4 total hours of practice and maybe two kids would get out the entire time. Almost entirely teenage girls. Other than that it was almost entirely kids under 8. More pools need an on deck toilet. People are freaking lazy, they won’t walk to the locker rooms, but give them a close single user bathroom and they’d be more likely to go.
Yep, every public pool, every outdoor pool, and every pool that ever has small kids in it has pee in it. Which is basically every pool. Also it’s that a third of adults have admitted to peeing in the pool, so that number is likely much larger. That super strong “chlorine” smell that people associate with pools isn’t chlorine, it’s chloramine, which is, as my boss put it, “Chlorine bonded to “stuff””. “Stuff” being literally anything that isn’t water. This includes pee, but also lotion, make-up, hair gel, everything. If you get bright red eyes from the water you don’t wanna be swimming in it. A little red is expected, everyone having bloodshot eyes? Nope nope nope, you will not catch me in that water.
Oh yeah, kids have an excuse, adults don’t, but kids have still done it.
I’d only believe people who have never been in a pool. Otherwise it’s a lie.
Lots of money, but don’t ask where it’s going
Lol. Then again I’ve seen people claim that banning lead paint actually increases the risk of cancer because it blocks radiation so painting walls with it protects you like at the dentist. 🤦
Yep. Apparently babies deserve to suffer for…being born? I’ve been told I should see my horrible migraine as a gift from God that he thinks I’m strong enough to carry. 🤬 Ah yes, the “gift” of unending pain. That’s not a gift, that’s a curse.
Yep, but if you ask them why babies have cancer they suddenly don’t have time to debate you.
Yep. I’ve even heard people say things like “Gay people have the same rights as straight people. A gay man has the same right to marry a woman as a straight man. So it’s not discrimination”. It’s mind boggling stupid and they know it.
