The point isn't to reduce sexual violence.
The point is to make us want to kill ourselves.
Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities
The point isn't to reduce sexual violence.
The point is to make us want to kill ourselves.
the point is also to actually make us more vulnerable to sexual violence.
Sexual violence and suicide are also, themselves, strongly connected.
Sometimes I want to downvote these kinds of comments like a lib, not because of any fault with the comment, but because of the neo-Nazi they depict. It’s really f***ed up that politicians play with their own citizens’ lives for sport.
That’s the thing. They don’t see us as their citizens. They see us as impediments to their victory
Evidently, the society isn't mature enough handle people using bathrooms yet.
Fuck it. Destroy all bathrooms. We go back to peeing in the woods and throwing poop buckets down the street.
We don’t need people going to the bathroom, we need them 👏 going 👏 to 👏 the 👏 polls 👏
All the woods have been turned into parking lots :/
They really make it as tough as possible to just live in America as a trans person smh
that seems to be the point, yes
I think public bathrooms need to be redesigned to be separate small rooms that can be locked instead of stalls.
Why aren't all bathrooms unisex to begin with it just seems pointless and inefficient.
To play devil's advocate a tiny bit (I know, I know, debatebro, but it's in good faith, trust me), I wonder how much of the increased victimization is due to lower incidence of sexual assault against specifically cisgender boys, and how the data looks when broken down along gender lines (or compared to just cisgender girls).
Straight, cisgender males commit the vast majority of sexual assaults, and I don't imagine the average sex predator would respect the gender identity of an afab enby or transmasc when deciding whether to assault them. Unlike with cisgender teens, of whom only around half are likely to be victimized by a straight male predator, both many trans girls and boys are at risk.
Obviously the point of the infographic still stands because perpetration rates are still lower, it's just the first thing that popped into my head.
