Except pedophilia is the attraction to minors which leads to child abuse. Transgenderism doesn't affect anyone but said person.
And im not arguing out of victimization, but of having respect for one's personal choice and feelings.
Im not sure she's right for the job (especially with the nursing home thing), and maybe she just did get picked to virtue signal.
Albert Alfonso Garza was convicted of sexually assaulting a boy in 2006, before taking part in "Drag Queen Storytime" in a Houston public library in 2017...

You're a beacon of reason on ATS. I always pridefully thought of myself as a tolerant and accepting person. It breaks my heart to not feel that way anymore.

I'm going to keep saying it...even if it sounds crazy and unbelievable, but this current attention towards trans rights started with an 8Chan thread where a bunch of 8Chan trannies decided they wanted to make the bathroom issue real...and they did...and it ballooned from there.
I seen the #ing thread...I watched them plan it and watched it occur exactly like they said....

Just pointing out...it comes from a place of bull# started by sociopaths on one of the #ed up places on the internet....and it's now being legislated and pushed etc. There's no legitimacy in any of the arguments being used to push it to begin with.

My building at work usually has nearly 800 people now because of covid we have maybe 75. Trans bathrooms are now important. We have a couple of small women's rooms on each floor but no small men's. They want the men's instead of making the single stall women's into first come first serve. When asked if people had issues the general mens response if it's trans we'll all just use it anyway because it's a bathroom. Now they want trans only. I don't see it ending well. At this point nobody knows who the trans are / is anyway????

Anyone see this dude get questioned by Rand Paul?
He refused to answer weather or not he would support a bill that would give the state the ability to usurp parental rights and give children puberty blockers without the parents consent or knowledge.
Basically if a teacher decides your child is trans, the school can give the child puberty blockers without even notifying the parents, and you can guarantee that if the parent speaks up they will be labeled transphobic and abusive to their child, giving the state the ability to take the child from the “abusive home”.
That’s what this children’s doctor, who thinks he’s a woman, and dresses up as a little girl, refused to say he would disagree with.
Welcome to the bottom of the slippery slope.

Do you have a percentage of trans who commit child molestation that one could compare with straight people? Wouldn't even know how to find that data.
I thjnk data would be necessary to make the claim that trans people have a higher pedophilia rate.

First words that came to my mind were:
OH DEAR!
This is terrible if you ask me... one of the worse type of people to have in that position. This group of people have already pushed their way into most homes and schools.... I can't imagine what they will be pushing for now.

I thjnk data would be necessary to make the claim that trans people have a higher pedophilia rate.
For example, 11% of transsexuals are involved in the risky world of prostitution, compared to 6% of average Americans,” the report continues.
As for the report’s MUSS/pedophilia claim, no source for it or data is provided. Relevant research is hard to find, too, but mixing and matching studies does provide some insight.
For example, ABC News reported in 2015 that at the end of 2001, approximately 6.8 percent of America’s state prison inmates “were male sex offenders who had committed a rape or sexual assault against a minor under age 18.” In contrast, the BBC informed last year that of 125 known MUSS inmates, 29, or 23.2 percent, were convicted of sexual offenses involving children/youth. Overall, almost half of the 125 were sex offenders.

I have only had personal experience with 2 transgenders. Both were professionals. One was a Social Worker and the other a psychiatrist who specializes in children.
Both seemed ok to me at first, very intelligent and capable. However, in time it became apparent that both were absolutely vicious to subordinate women. Both were eventually encouraged to leave because of that. They could not stand for a secretary or nurse to make a mistake and seemed to love to publicly humiliate any poor woman down their chain of command.
I have always wanted to have an open mind, but both were very similar in this way.
