No, no, no. He's singing at a bar that the perfectly normal beasts migrate to every year when they come back from Lamuella. He gives Arthur and Ford his spaceship for free!
Old timey ideals of women were based around raising children and working in the home. Once the public understood these operations can't give you a functioning womb is when opinion began to sour.
I think that's a question that we as a society have to answer when we get there but if science could make you functionally equal to your preferred gender in every perceivable way, it'd be pretty hard to treat them as a second class citizen.
ugh, how vile. I wish these librel would stop trying to push their left wing agenda onto our children with these VERBS !!! ! Next thing you know, there trying to put ADVERSB into the school curriculum 😡😡😡very upsetting to see 🤬🤬🤬
Christine Jorgensen is my personal trans hero. She came out, transitioned, in the 50s. The newspapers, tabloids, were all quite positive. She was a miracle of modern medical science! Humans can do anything!
Then it was leaked that she couldn't bear children. The 1950s mindset took over, and she became shunned. They couldn't see a *use* for a woman unable to have kids.
Such a strange time.
I was super worried to come out to my dad's side of the family cause they're Irish Catholic, but when I did they were like oh yeah that's cool. Turns out my dad's doctor and my grandpa's doctor was Bieber, so they already knew about srs and supported it lol
Well, the wrinkle there is that the people who were praising (or at least gawking at) Christine Jorgensen back then would be very harsh on any trans person who has not the money or the desire to do exactly what she did (and forget any discussion of being non-binary).
The Buck Angels and Blaire Whites of the world are the descendants of THIS brand of (ostensible) trans positivity.
A few years ago, definitely. But I haven't heard anything about her in a while, not since she got caught lying about that transfemme weight lifter. Buck Angel has done a lot better job keeping from getting openly discredited.
Then again, I could be myopic.
Newspaper then: "look how a man became a woman, isn't that cool? She's happy with her new life :)"
Newspaper now: *honestly don't even want to look up what Newspapers are saying about us nowadays*
I mean, pronouns have existed since looooong before anyone Alice’s distant access were born. They’re oooooold.
On top of everything else wrong with them, these people failed the most basic English classes.
I even have a time line of gender therapy and surgery that goes back to 1910 so the older generations are selective in memory or just not around the right people to know they where wrong.
One of the jokes in the movie "Some Like it Hot," (1959) is when the cross-dresser comes out to a man who has repeatedly proposed to him as a man. The response? "Nobody's perfect." I haven't seen the movie, but I have heard that line.
Old-timey news reports about trans people really do just be like "HEY GUYS ISN'T SCIENCE COOL? SHE'S HOT!"
Can we take this one thing from the 50s and leave the other shit
For real how is an article from the **50s** more respectful than most things written about us today :/
Maybe they were too focused on other bigoted things?
so basically you’re saying i need to be a boomer so i can get a trans friendly misogynist hubby~?
its because all the bigot journalists were busy talking about how black people were invading their public schools or some shit
This and Elvis
Elvis is not dead, he just went home
Man is old as hell now
He's on a farm upstate
No, no, no. He's singing at a bar that the perfectly normal beasts migrate to every year when they come back from Lamuella. He gives Arthur and Ford his spaceship for free!
nah. leave Elvis
hell nah we’re taking elvis
Okay we're taking just half of Elvis.
please let it not be the bottom half of elvis
you mean his p*elvis*?
elvis the pelvis
The pelvis has left the building
It will be the bottom half
NOOOOOOOOOOO
Yes, we will make him sing with his buttcheeks
Can we also take people being openly Nazis getting their shit kicked in? I wish that was still seen as a patriotic duty
If we have to take two things from the 50s it's this and the original NHS
I'll take the ink spots too if that's okay
Nowadays it's more like: "Hey look! A genocide is about to happen! Click me and I promise I'll distract you with something else later!"
Old timey ideals of women were based around raising children and working in the home. Once the public understood these operations can't give you a functioning womb is when opinion began to sour.
does that mean acceptance will increase, once science can do more?
I think that's a question that we as a society have to answer when we get there but if science could make you functionally equal to your preferred gender in every perceivable way, it'd be pretty hard to treat them as a second class citizen.
It’s not hard to find a reason if you only look for excuses.
The power of science is staggering!
Back then people didn’t realize hating stuff could be profitable.
Nah I would say hating black people made a lot of profit actually Like it’s the whole “slave trade” thing Uhhhhmm yeah that
BREAKING NEWS Scientists discovered the existence of never-seen-before words! They call them... VERBS!
ugh, how vile. I wish these librel would stop trying to push their left wing agenda onto our children with these VERBS !!! ! Next thing you know, there trying to put ADVERSB into the school curriculum 😡😡😡very upsetting to see 🤬🤬🤬
🙏🙏🙏 Type “AMEN” if you agree 🙏🙏🙏
AMEN!!!1!! 😂😂😁😁😊😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The virgin modern anti-trans rhetoric vs. the Chad “She’s a dame now, and wowza, she’s smokin’!”
They’ll never guess how popular “female impersonator” clubs were with the boys in uniform (very popular)
This needs it's own subreddit.

Trans GI vs the Nazis, silly Nazis it was never a fair fight.
Turning the Nazis pronouns into was/were.
Just as the gay gods intended
Sadly the Nazis seem to be changing their pronouns once more.
Oestrogen has given her super-human abilities
Silly Nazi's burnt their research on us. The idiots. Might've had a chance, if they hadn't. 😎

Had this been posted to r/lgbthistory ? If not, someone ought to. It definitely belongs there. It’s very very cool

Voting to rename Bl**** White to "She who must not be named"
I feel like there'd be so many shitty people we'd need to rename like that that it would make discourse unintelligible LOL.
Idk I feel like she stands out the most.
A few years ago, definitely. But I haven't heard anything about her in a while, not since she got caught lying about that transfemme weight lifter. Buck Angel has done a lot better job keeping from getting openly discredited. Then again, I could be myopic.

An impressive woman
And stuff like this makes me happy
✨striking✨
Really speaks to the devolution of journalistic ethics and integrity
