Those of us still able to think for ourselves should be outraged by this whole trans agenda.

What is the trans agenda?

To take a big steaming dump on biology in the name of political correctness.

Maybe you should light your hair on fire or something.

Seriously..who gives a f@#$. Don't buy their products!!

It's not me i worry about. It's the blatant lies being taught to my children by those with a mental illness.

Pretty much the same as the 'homosexual agenda', I would think...

a reply to: JohnnyCanuck

You can't compare homosexuals and trans, one is a sexual preference, the other is a mental illness.

Why would a "trans male" be shaving?

Regardless of this, a rival company has probably hijacked Gillette's ad division. After the "toxic masculinity" as beforehand, I am convinced that those making ads for Gillette do NOT have Gillette's best interests at heart...

Wrong on so many levels...
1) When did you 'decide' your 'preference'? Cuz I can't imagine it being a matter of choice, so for me it's not. Parse that thought.
2) Those with a little more knowledge on the subject say: Transgender people are not mentally ill, the WHO decrees
3) Drifting back to #1, I think some people's fears of what others might be doing with their naughty bits is kinda revealing in and of itself.
4) Just be nice...it's contagious!

Not so sure about this.

Many agree that "LGB(+)" and "T" should be separated, as opposed to all being under one all-encompassing umbrella.

"LGB" refers to sexuality.

"T" is something altogether bizarre and only seen in lower order species like plants.

How can you say that wanting to mutilate yourself is anything other than mental illness?

That's like telling me that people experiencing from "existential dysphoria" are NOT mentally ill. You do know what existential dysphoria refers to right?

Next, you'll be telling me that transracialism is okay and racial dysphoria is fine...

Circumcision? Tats? Earring?

Strawman much? Talk to the WHO and get back to me, ok?

Sure cutting up your genitals and pretending to be a member of the opposite sex is in no way delusional.

Said it before if my son came home with a boyfriend then thats his choice/preference. But, if he comes home in a dress, changes his name, claims to be a woman and is interesting in cutting up his penis we will be going to see a doctor.

I don't give a flying f*ck what the WHO classifies trans as. I can make up my own mind.

The tough part is when you make up your kids' minds for them. Good luck with that.

Yes, you are wrong on so many levels.

Likely it is the results of how they were shaped that way as they grew up and had different experiences. If you're LGBT, blame your parents. If it were genetic, identical twins would always both be gay. Instead there is only a 22% correlation. So it is environmental. Link

2) Those with a little more knowledge on the subject say: Transgender people are not mentally ill, the WHO decrees

The actual studies prove otherwise. In fact they prove that those who transition are far worse off (much worse outcomes) than those who don't.

3) Drifting back to #1, I think some people's fears of what others might be doing with their naughty bits is kinda revealing in and of itself.

I think some peoples fears of other peoples fears of what others might be doing with their naughty bits is kinda revealing in and of itself. See how asinine this "logic" is?

4) Just be nice...it's contagious!

Amen.

Actually i think by grounding him with a basic understanding of biology his mind will be in a good position to make a decision which doesn't involve mutilating his own body or denying his natural gender/sex.

And if he cannot reconcile himself with your expectations? Because, ultimately, that's what we're talking about.

The WHO?

So if, tomorrow, the WHO acknowledged the existence of something so absurd as transracialism or existential dysphoria, you'd be like, yup, okay, that makes sense.

Cos it doesn't. It doesn't make sense.

wow gillette really pulling out the big guns !

a female to male trans kid shaving for the first time , and a POC family too , and the dad is there to show him how to shave!


# gillette and any other corporation who will use politics to advertise to yoU!
marketing is hell !

and best to stick to Bill Hicks mantra, if you are in marketing kill yourself!

Gillette is the one who claimed the individual was a "female to male trans". For all we know, that could just be a normal dude acting.

Henry Cavill isn't exactly "Superman"; he just plays a character in a movie lol (And "Superman" is a fictional character, highly unscientific and breaks the laws of physics)
