Warfighter is the silliest shit ever. We had a word for that already! Soldier (or warrior, etc.). But I guess none of them sounded cop-speak enough??

No socialist country has used common law. Common law being dialectical and civil law being idealist might be the mind boggling take I've ever seen on this site

I'm on disability, I need to figure out what, if anything, I can get my shitty privatized state medicaid plan to pay for. God I wish I had gotten off my ass and started the process earlier. Who knows how long social security and medicaid are gonna be around.
They are kinda gross. They get in the way too. M
Same. Like, if I wasn't forced into a gender from birth, and there was no social pressure to have one, then if I did still decide that I want breasts, to be on estrogen and not testosterone, then would I even be trans in anything like the way I am now? Or would that be more like getting a tattoo or piercing is now.
Like in the future i want, things would be so different, I don't think the categories we have now would even apply (for the most part, at least)

No worries! Feel free to vent all you want
I've been really wanting an orchi lately too
Hmm, maybe I need to watch dirty pair, lol.
My 100% vibes based analysis is that 0.5-1% and 3% are both low. Both for the reasons you mentioned, but also because I feel like in a more open society there would be a lot more agender, non-binary (non-trinary? for societies with a 3rd gender), people doing thier own gender, etc. Like even in a society with a third gender, while that's better than just two, there is still a lot of pressure to be one of those three, yeah? In guess I feel like too many studies shit trans people still are too binary focused. But idk. Do you work in stats? You probably know more on this than me
Ahhhhh, that makes sense.
3% seems pretty low to me, but the majority of people I know are non-binary trans people, so my perspective might be skewed.
What's the left-handed graph? I'm not familiar.
Personally, I imagine that, in a society that was truly free of gender-based oppression and where people weren't forced into gender at birth, most people wouldn't even have a gender (though probably a few people would, like as a hobby kinda?). But I could be totally wrong on that. I think you can really only guess how many people would be trans or whatever else once so the bullshit is removed: we're too deep in the bullshit to have any real idea.
My fiancée didn't like the name "girl bag" for my balls 
It's something special, not something to hide away
Agree! I love being trans!
And I understand wanting to be safe and wanting to not have to deal with transphbic comments, worry about violence, etc. But assimilation isn't a real path towards that, only dismantling patriarchy is.
Same :(
