You don't have kids. Every attack you do of other posters like telling women posters they are losers for not having children or telling g other men they are losers for not having a wife is all projection from you. And quite frankly Im not tolerating it anymore and will bring it up everytime you respond to me. You don't have a family. You are everything you accuse people around you of because you are a very damaged person partly from the social media you consume. So now, back to topic, what does "get them out of a dark place" look like? What case studies can you point to with specific methods. Can you refer to your sister for more nuance? What specific treatment are you looking at that isn't different than how we approached transgenderism for the past century?
You know this dude literally goes around telling people they are losers for not having a wife or babies? I think there have been 2 notable posters who post in the D&D and both of them he has called losers for not having babies. He isn't someone to give positive reinforcement to.
Do you seriously believe there were high suicide rates among kids that were not reported? Wouldn't they show up in some way? You have to be specific. Does correction bother you?
I said transgender suicide rates as a whole. Are you saying throughout the 20th century, transgender suicide rates weren't amongst the highest of any subgroup? I'm annoyed with pedanticism to deflect from the topic at hand. Yes or no, transgender suicide rates have been abnormally high in the 20th century and the early part of the 21st century.
I am saying that nothing that happened in the 20th century led to an increase in suicide rates among trans folks today. I am asking for proof of high suicide rates among trans folks throughout history. You say it just wasn't reported. I don't agree with that. Prove it. I think social media is the #1 source of many of the trends we are seeing recently including suicide rates. Okay, so you don't like being corrected. Gotcha.
Are you saying before social media suicide rates weren't high amongst transgender folks? Is that the claim? As if being the butt of jokes, having your family kick you out, being looked at odd or crazy every time you need to use a public restroom didn't exist before social media.
Yeah you just make stuff up because that's all you have. You're human garbage. Why would anyone make up having children? I have a son and a daughter and obviously a wife. Just because you don't have anyone in your life you lash out at me. I'm sorry your life is empty and you'll never have a family of your own. You are a loser. Nobody cares what you think Quite frankly, because of the attack.on my family I will no longer respond to you. You're absolutely worthless and that's exactly why you hate yourself and your parents hate you. Go try for someone else's attention.
Why would someone who seems to believe impregnating a woman as the ultimate show of competence and alpha energy and use the "you don't have kids and a wife" insult like 70 times to like 30 different posters(literally a viable estimate) lie about having a kids and a family? Because you make a very big deal out of it, making me believe it's something you really want and believe it's a large failure of your life and project that here. It's because you use it as an insult to like every poster you disagree with. Basically it can be summed up by "thy gentleman doth protest too much" More than half the forum have kids. Why they don't they use "you don't have kids" as an insult? Because they are secure with their personal lives.
You're not going to find what you are looking for. Why? Because years ago people hid it. You had no idea they were trans, because they didn't live as trans. Just like homosexuals. So trying to find suicide rates of trans people in the 20th century is a near impossibility
Suicide rates, attempts, thoughts, etc. have increased recently regardless of whether or not what they were was high or low or mid. That increase is due to an increase in social media use. That is what I'm saying. High, low, who knows. We should expect mentally unwell people to have higher rates of suicide. Whether it is caused by internal or external forces is the disagreement. If there is no increase, then what's all the fuss about? Society is more accepting today, which accounts for the increase in people identifying as trans, right? But that acceptance still isn't enough to decrease suicide rates.
How do you know acceptance is wide spread enough to not be shunned at public restrooms with someone waiting to shove a camera phone up your face or having your parents severe ties with you? Acceptance is wide enough to where people express acceptance on public spheres like social media. But wide enough where a trans teen in suburban Oklahoma feels comfortable to discuss it with their parents?
My question then is were trans people killing themselves at the rates they are today but we just didn't count them? Like the NBA didn't count blocks but that doesn't mean shots weren't getting blocked.
See the father here in this picture? How many suicides by men or women living fake lives(lives where they can't express their true sexuality) resulted in suicides where people were like "I thought he or she loved a happy family life??! What happened?!?"
We didn't know they were trans. Just like homosexuals. They were in the closet. There are still those in the closet. Just not as many.
Also modern social media not only put a megaphone on people who accept transgender people.... It also put a megaphone towards those who constantly b**** about transgender people. A transgender person probably can find content that ***** on their very existence easily more than ever.
The point is acceptance is up, but so too are suicide rates so could it be that more acceptance will not help?
Reported suicide rates are up. It's like asking why America has more rape cases than India when there are less prosecutions for it on India per Capita. Because it wasn't reported. Before it was a closted person killing themselves ans their family being perplexed confused why they did it. Again, modern social media doesn't just put acceptance in a bullhorn. It places a bullhorn in front of hate. You think there isn't a single openly transgender person with a social media presence that doesn't fer spammed full of hate comments and threats just for being trans?
You go to the emotional far too much for someone who demands peer reviewed studies, stats, and all that.
