such as like this:

The concept of gender identity is said to be real as an experience, (like how theists claim to see god [a claim basically]), but scientifically under-defined, weakly grounded biologically, and sometimes treated as more fixed or explanatory than current evidence justifies.

    “and the”

    And the what???
    Also center is not a “wing”.
    You don’t seem to have any kind of coherent thought with your question.

    Basically your question is “I don’t say I agree with right wing views, but…” You just use however instead. But it’s the same thing.
    Also transgender is neither an ideology philosophy or religion. So your comparison to Theism is way off.
    There’s a huge difference in believing to have a personal experience with the supernatural, and to have a personal experience about yourself.

    scientifically under-defined

    You can make that claim about a lot of things, even gravity and especially time, nobody understands time, would you deny time exist?

      And the what???

      The complete title is available on PieFed, which is where the user is from and has a higher character limit:

      I’m not saying that I agree with right- or center-wing views, and I do condemn transphobia. However, do you think there should be a distinction between critiquing beliefs of transgender people and their identity, and engaging in transphobia?


      I wouldn’t be too harsh on OP, I (shamefully) used to have similar views before growing up and becoming an ally. This is a trans-friendly echo chamber but to add people to our side, we need to engage in empathetic discussion with those who have only known outdated perspectives on gender, like my Catholic parents’. See my other comment.

      On a lighter note: there are people who understand time pretty well but magnets? How do they work??? (Yes, a real gap in physics)
