New transgender survey could set terrible precedent for policy based on feelings, not facts
Conservative Review ^ | 12/12/16 | Carly Hoilman

Posted on 12/12/2016 4:37:12 PM PST by 198ml

A recent nationwide survey revealed that “60 percent of transgender Americans have avoided using public restrooms for fear of confrontation, saying they have been harassed and assaulted.” The “landmark” survey cites data based on the responses of 27,715 individuals, or an estimated 2 percent of the adult transgender population (which comprises only 0.6 percent of the entire U.S. population).

Reuters refers to transgender people as a “severely understudied group whose experiences and challenges from medicine to law to economics and family relations are poorly understood.” And the National Center for Transgender Equality, the group that conducted the survey, hopes the new data will serve as a basis for researchers and policymakers for years to come.

A survey like this demonstrates the power of the trans-victim class, and it should be a cause of great concern for any American who respects the rule of law.

How about a national beat the #### out of your wife group, or a national screw farm animals group, or (put anything INSANE here) group?

Democrats claim to love a democracy, a system where the majority rules.

But then they demand that America be run according to the whims of every minority they can find or create.

The Tyranny of The Minority

The Tyranny of The Eensy-Teensy, Minuscule, Fraction Of One Percent, Sexual Deviate, Minority.

Great point and it translates to the electoral college discussion....if only some would use their brains. What if Americans voted on special priveleges for trans or LGBTQwhatevers?

Hmmm... Reuters remains true to form.

TRUMP/PENCE!

They talk out of both sides of their mouths. They are doing Satan’s work full-time. They will say one thing today and another tomorrow. There are not enough people to call them out on it.

Right now the hardcore left, the Dummies, libtards and communists are grieving over the loss of their hero Obama. They post hero worship type pictures of him on the internet. They truly are the offspring of the devil.

I’m certain this is to engender unity instead of division ...

Read carefully the above article then imagine, if you can, what would be coming if Hillary won the election.

saying they have been harassed and assaulted.

Wait a minute....they're saying women are harassing and assaulting the poor whining faggots?

HA! Girl power!

Actually all you have to do is start laughing, uncontrollably. You don't have to say a word. And get the other toilet-goers to laugh too. Same for the men's room.

Last time I checked, laughing was not a "hate crime".

You’ve heard of a “whispering campaign” we can call it a “snickering campaign”

It should go viral.

To validate mental illness and insanity will destroy any rational culture and turn it into a tribal, irrational hellhole.

Reality and Truth state that there are only two biological sexes: male and female-—provable by science. Everything else is Kumbaya Marxist “gender” theory, where Vice is Virtue and Boys are Girls——a complete removal of Reality (Common Sense) and Natural Law Theory-—basis of American Jurisprudence.

To remove Reason and Truth from Reality is irrational—and incompatible with a civil society. Reason has to rule emotions. Base urges can’t dictate “truth”/Reality.

Without Right Reason, there is no possibility of Just Law—a “Justice” (virtue) system and as Socrates knew thousands of years ago, without Virtue in people (which includes REASON), there is no civil society

This is so ridiculous.

If the transgender is a man and still looks like a man, he should use the man’s bathroom.

If he is dressing like a woman, he should ... I don’t know, but certainly avoid the women’s restroom.

So fricking confusing!

“60 percent of transgender Americans have avoided using public restrooms for fear of confrontation,"

So let me get this straight. You will chop off your junk or breasts, take an unhealthy amount of hormones, play dress up, force EVERYONE to accept your mental illness, as you wander freely through society BUT you're afraid of the bathroom? Give me a frikkin break. This is about POWER.

There is only one truth and dogs know it.

When Odin was a year old, I often took him out to pet-friendly stores to socialize him.

He loves the ladies and adores having their affections lavished upon him.

We came out of PetCo and the girl who works at Sally Beauty wanted to meet him, so I obliged.

While she was loving on him, the “thing” that also works there came out to pet him.

Odin looked at this tall ‘woman’ and ran over, nub-tail wagging...as usual, the thing got a perfunctory ‘sniff’, and I kid you not, his eyes flew wide open like a cartoon dog.

He bolted backwards, to the end of his leash, nearly knocking me and the other girl over.

He stood as far away as he could get, wild-eyed and obviously freaked out.

Dogs know abnormal when they encounter it.

Thank goodness I did not have my female Dobe, Seven, with me.
She would have simply bitten it.

You will chop off your junk or breasts,

No no, not even that...just "say" that you feel like a (opposite sex) No investment required.

So next time you gotta whiz, and the men's room is locked, just use the other one. Tell em your a democRAT...and feel like a woman.

"the adult transgender population (which comprises only 0.6 percent of the entire U.S. population)"

I don't believe it. I don't believe that 6 out of every 1,000 people I meet are transgender. Of course, who knows what "transgender" even means, since you can make it up as you go. I am 66, and in my life I can count on one hand the number of people I've met who were what I would call transgender: one told me "she" had an abnormal biological condition, the other was a cross-dresser.

I believe we already have a (put anything INSANE here) group. It goes by the moniker 'Democratic party'.

Wow!!!! Dogs are so intuitive! We have a black Lab, and I swear, she knows what we are thinking. The minute I ta!k about going to the park, or even think about it, she goes nuts. From what I've read, dogs can even detect cancer. Police dogs, military dogs, huing dogs.. they really are man's best friend. Guess we got off topic a bit, FRiend. ☺. But that a very interesting story. Dogs know.... Pinging the Doggie list; not sure if it is of interest to the group, but I thought you might enjoy reading this, Joe
