What if you appear very androgynous and you don’t care if people think you’re male or female?

I don't believe I said that.

some are, imo

Personally I think that most supposedly trans people aren't going around actively making themselves targets of bigotry just to feel special,
most trans people fall into the category of mtf or ftm. More so mtf.

I don't know trans people IRL to be able to give any legitimate opinion on their sanity, and if some people are just "kinda" non-binary and maybe look like they're trying for attention and you're mainly seeing them on Youtube or Tumblr or some other site that attracts people seeking attention then that's not necessarily a hill worth taking if it's addressing a non-issue and spreading cynicism towards "real" trans people in the process.
So basically even if I'm right I shouldn't be saying what I'm saying here?

Should we differentiate between statutory rape and forced rape?

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

NVM I guess adding sexual assault to it does differentiate it.

They're milktoast liberals like Obama and Hillary. The youth angle and the fact she's a woman and he's gay are just symbolic "change." Gabbard would be good on foreign policy but that's probably about it.

But we'd have one of the most smoking hot world leaders.

My dream ticket, although I realize it's a pipe dream.



Added bonus (for me): Tulsi is a very sincere Vaishnava Hindu who chants in Washington Square Park.
