I think nicknames can be funny, but they are often just cruel, and intended as such. There was a guy near me who had a surgically repaired hair lip. His nickname was 'lippy'. Another one was called 'snow-white' he was an albino.
Some can be so endearing. But like you said some can be cruel. Unfortunately it seems the cruel ones are the ones that are prevalent these days. Bullying when young but so called adults who should know better are more and more guilty of it also.
I don't believe that people who try to have a different definition or let's say reality from other people are against that people. That's a bit of hasty generalisation.
"Most attacks on minority groups come from members of minority groups." - You are entitled on your own opinion but I refused to believe that you hastily judge. I brought up the context of minority in this thread as I am also member of minority group. So, I am presuming that talking about "attacks" and "minority" are alluded to me. Is it? I have to ask because I am not certain and I tend not to assume.
"Attack." That's a pretty big word. In my understanding, one attacks another when they are hostile to each other or the former is hostile. As far as I know, I never attacked anyone. Nobody said you did. If my memory is right, I was the one being attacked at one point here. Oh, no, it wasn't an attack. What was it? Ah, maybe self-expression. Yeah. Sure.
Time for some refreshments. Chocolate ice cream! Yup! So much better...

I think you hit the nail on the head there. It is time for refreshments. Enjoy.

Strange, in the other thread 'The Unaccaptable' you seem to be apologetic.
Here you try to defend yourself and make yourself the victim.. You are very fond of taking words and making it all about you.
As to the perceived attack I take it you are pointing your finger in my direction.. Well go ahead. I did not attack you I simply said if these people have done nothing to hurt you leave them alone.. You took that as a personal attack, it wasnt it was a short answer shutting down what I saw as a prelude to a thread expressing anti trans views . If you want to know about being attacked see it from the trans community side.
As the foster parent of a trans teenager I saw the battles, the anguish, and the abuse that girl had to put up with. Just this morning on the BBC it was reported that hate crimes were up again. In June trans hate crimes were up over 80% in Scotland , today the figure is a 56% rise across the Uk..
When you start to question these womens right to be who they are you open the door to hate speech which in turn opens the door to hate crime.
Yet again I ask what has a trans person ever done to harm or offend you physically or mentally that you feel the need to question their right to be who they are?
If you seek medical or psychological advice concerning the process of transition I suggest you ask medical professionals.
As regards debate or discussion there is no debate about LGBTQ people, they are, therefore they exsist, and they have a right to be who they are,, get over yourself and just accept it.
