People who abuse children, especially their own, should be put to death.

I was going to say I wouldn't ever be so stubborn to have an opinion that I would die over rather than listen to alternate views but then I thought of this particular subject.

Nice. I can understand the high horse some people ride to the hills they aren't willing to die on, but then you see this.

We could make a whole iceberg thread of hills to die on. This just scratches the surface.

I figured, but it's never safe to assume nowadays. I feel trans men and women should be respected and treated like everyone else. BUT I also feel like trans men shouldn't be allowed to dominate any type of women sports. I know that kind of divides people and contradicts what I just said, but on a DNA level and in general men can outperform women in most sports. So I feel trans men should have their own division. I 100% support trans men and women, but can see how fucked up it is to have an advantage at sports due to the physical DNA one was born with.

That might piss people off, but it's still a hill I'm willing to die on.

agreed. i think trans people should never be on the receiving end of violence or discrimination but ultimately, transwomen are male and transmen are female. wishing it otherwise doesn't make it so.
