To believers in the TRA cult, same sex attraction doesn't exist. They think people are attracted to each other based on gender identity, and if you're attracted to someone with the same gender identity, you're gay. If you're only attracted to those of the same sex, then that's a preference and not an innate sexual orientation according to TRAs.
A problem with the TRA worldview is that homosexual behavior has been observed in many animals species and that homosexuality in animals is completely based on sex, not gender identity. Of course, this is how homosexuality works in humans as well, because gender identity doesn't exist at all in humans or other species. But how would TRAs explain homosexuality in animals?
Do they think animals experience homosexuality based on gender identity? If so, all studies of homosexuality in animals have to be thrown out, since they were conducted based on the animals's sex rather than gender identity.
Do they think homosexuality in animals is based on sex, but based on gender identity in humans? If so, why?
Why did humans evolve gender identity to begin with when other animals did not? Why did gender identity evolve to become a more important factor in sexual orientation than biological sex in the human species? If TRAs think animals can have gender identity as well, why didn't gender identity evolve to replace same sex attraction in animals like it did in humans?
I've had religious fundamentalists tell me "We should behave better than animals" when I point out homosexuality exist in animals. I wonder if this is how TRAs view gay people as well. A dumb animal doesn't know what it's doing, but they expect a human to know better. I also think TRAs have the religiously rooted worldview that humans are special and above animals. That's why they don't even sit down and think why humans (supposedly) have gender identities while other animals don't. There's nothing in science, biology or evolution that tells us humans are special, unique or above other animals.
Why aren't TRAs angry at scientists who study homosexuality in animals? I've seen biologist on twitter get attacked by the trans mob for saying biological sex exist. How long until gender stereotype worshipers feel invalidated by gay animals?
Oh yes. Keep bringing this peaking material. Anyone who thinks this is not ok, should have a long hard look at the whole trans movement.
Thank you TRAs for paving the way for... this. I kind of love it. Pretending to be Korean isn't going to cause the same harm as pretending to be a woman, but it will ruffle so many feathers. Come, hypocrites. Show your disdain.
Saw this article pop up and was enraged. This person also identifies as “non-binary” which is just the icing on this racist cake.
Tbh I can’t help but see how internet culture has fed into this. It’s Korean fetishization, it’s Buffalo bill, it’s “kinning” to the extreme. I sure hope that there is a backlash to this but I don’t have a lot of faith in it.
This is self harm pure and simple, the doctors who did this surgery should be struck off.
"The Internet has blasted the Jimin wannabe for being “unbelievably degrading to Koreans” and for using Korean as a pronoun."
Yeah, someone pushing his way into your demographic...insisting that others see him as that demographic...insisting that others refer to him as that demographic in their use of pronouns...just AWFUL, isn't? Soooooooooooooo degrading, obviously...unless that demographic is "women."
But, actually, this guy is going to help a lot of people peak. I once spoke top to a very woke libfem mom, who was raising her daughter and son as if they had no sex differences, and I asked her if there was anything at all that bothered her about gender identity ideology, and she said there was one thing: she could never understand how someone can be a transgender person, but not a transracial person.
Dear any hate lurkers:
The way you feel when you see this is how we feel when we see trans-identified males.
Don’t furiously reject what I just said on impulse; think about it. I know you’re dying to blurt out how many ways it’s not the same but take a deep breath and honestly consider how is it not the same?
Thank you and have a good day.
Can't believe someone like him made it into mainstream news, thought he was just a meme in kpop circles. Poor (real) Jimin.
I don’t see how this is different from being trans gender. Yet my pro trans friends hate this guy.
I feel sorry for the pain that he's put himself through due to his delusional thinking. However, I'm grateful that he's using the trans logic so unironically when he describes his new Korean identity. It's bound to peak some people out there.
