Tastyled's account is a Reddit controlled account. That's not the same thing as a normal user down voting you.

That's an interesting perspective.

Lol, classic redditor logic

Agreed

Are they happier post transition? Part of the key for happiness, in general, is feeling that you're making progress in life. What I've seen is people who begin the transition are happier. I'd suggest 1) because they're making progress and 2) because they're generally younger and easily pass as the other sex. ...But eventually, maybe when they're ~30+ and start looking more like their birthed gender, they end up very unhappy. I'd say because they stop making progress and, worse, start losing ground. I'm fine with gay/trans/whatever. I just don't see these ineffective surgeries as being that helpful long term. People over state how effective they are. Someday if modern medicine can figure out how to actually change someone's biological gender I'm convinced it would help. I just don't think medicine is there yet.

I just shared my opinion. You were the one who couldn't tolerate my viewpoint

Plant science industry. I've spent a lot of time working around electrochemical cells, spectrometers, etc. Read scientific papers on the daily. Most of them are written to look smart and not be helpful, the majority are almost useless. I contrast the "scientific community" with the engineering/maker community. It's like night and day. When an engineering article says X is X, X is always X. So much more reliable and, almost without exception, their papers are written to be useful not self promoting. Basically I think the scientific community is being held back by stupid practices like publishing in journals. Just look at the dated garbage. Black and white, no multimedia, no public forum for comments...they're so far behind. And that's ignoring their stupid politics and over inflated sense of self importance. I could go on and on. I have a love hate relationship with the scientific community.

Well, peer review is basically about flair. Personally I give zero about peer review when it's just an opinion. If they actually replicate their work that's something else.

If I recall, the majority of professionals in the field opposed declassification. And technically according to the DSM it is STILL a mental illness IF the afflicted person considers it to be a negative thing. Wtf reddit. So ignorant.

Actually that would make too much sense

Truth

Silver lining, the gov keeps track of who posts where. Reddit only hurts antifa, bamn, etc in the long run.

Exactly.

Yep, reddit mods are the kings of fake news.

Please report this mod as likely Antifa to the NSA.

Just discovered this sub, so great. Reddit has been killing itself for years with PC nonsense. Being banned is almost a badge of honor now.
