Careful you wouldn't want to brake the vile, it's important medicine for people

For me it really doesn't matter, bc most of the challenges I face (and to a certain extent all trans people) are bc of society treating trans people like shit

If society treated trans people with respect and care then well I would just have an annoying medical condition which is fine by me

Tho I absolutely see and understand why someone would wish they were just born cis, tho I imagine society not being trash to them would also go a long way in lessening that desire.

Also to give my answer to your questions, I don't think being concerned about passing has much to do with wishing to be cis but more to do with wanting to be treated with respect and kindness. From what I have seen people talk about the major things for wanting to be cis is having a strong desire to have the same anatomy as a cis person and not having to deal with immense dysphoria (obviously society being shit is also a big thing but if that were not the case then the previous reasons would be the main reason for wishing to be cis)

Just gotta use the other end and it would probably be okay

I guess you didn't get any grapes

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying somehow you or me are not benefiting highly from colonialism but even with that standards while highly beneficial to us it's not without it's very harmful ideals. Going back to the beauty thing, taking my experience for example, I'm white, skinny and have light colored eyes and that benefits me highly but I don't fit the beauty standard that we'll bc I'm trans, have broad shoulders relatively tall for my area and visible Adam's apple. Not really the peak "white beauty" for a femm. At the end of the day "colonialism" in this context sets very unrealistic standards for everyone but especially for racial and or gender minorities.

In general I very much agree with you but seems like you are missing a bit more nuance in this particular aspect

Is that bc of like regional pricing or? At least for me the prices are around the same

Well beauty standards and the whole 2 genders concept is a European concept that was forced on people outside of Europe which would be colonialism and also the standards are forced upon the people with in Europe.

Thing is as much as you have been benefiting from colonialism you have also been hurt by it. As an analogy take men who uphold toxic masculinity, they are hurting others and themselves.

I was thinking like what did he turn out to be a truscum or what? Glad it's nothing

The sex part yeaaaah you might need to consider more drastic actions with the relationship, obviously your relationship is very nuanced and I don't know anything about it. I do however know that your partner not taking care of your needs and listening to you will end in disaster.

Plus you deserve to be treated with respect

I'd imagine if you have a warehouse within a city but far from a train railway, tho you'd probably need to move a lot of cargo for it to be worth using over just a truck

What does being held accountable even mean? Punishment? Or just removeval of their services bc well machines can be removed from service.

If a machine stops working we hold it "accountable" by servicing it or throwing it out. Plus there are plenty machines that make decisions and we use the without much fuss

Not sure if you are being sarcastic or if I'm not getting something but isn't that how it works in the US. It's if one candidate get majority of the votes then the others have no impact (well no impact in determining who has the power)
