Caitlyn is trash either way because of that whole car crash thing she got away with because she's rich. I believe she has legit gender dysphoria, but she's still a pretty bad person.
she's not "macho ma'am" batshit, but i still feel like the transition is some weird get-rich-quick facade.

I can.
The more I think about it, the more convinced I am that lgbtq has been co-opted as a weapon to promote conservative interests.
In Jenner's case, it steers the debate away from feminism and to trans rights. The right honestly could care less about some trans people they don't associate with, its the uppity women around every corner they care about.

Correct, for example I do not feel anyone who is trans should ever go as far as to get surgery, but that doesn't mean I hate trans people. And I wouldn't hate one who did get the surgery, but I would feel bad for them if they end up changing their minds.
The conceit is in thinking that your opinion on the subject is as or more valuable than that of a transgender person. Having an opinion about what another person should or should not do with his own body is like having an opinion about whether red heads should be permitted to celebrate Christmas. It is not your place, it is not up to you, and it is none of your business.

My opinion on it is not more valuable, but definitely as valuable.

And I never said whether they get it is up to me. And if it was, I'd let any adult who could pay for it do it.
Again, having an opinion about someone else's options—something that does not even apply to you—and thinking it deserves to be heard and considered, suggests you do think it is up to you, or that you should at least have a say. That is the entire problem.

Yup, my opinion is just as valuable.
Nope: merely having an opinion and posting it online doesn't mean I think I have a say 🙂

So, you(Adam) think only certain people are allowed to have opinions. that explains a lot about you.
This will be fun. Fine, it is my opinion that you should be sterilized. Remember, all opinions are equally valid. My opinion on what happens to your body is equally valid as yours, and deserves the same consideration.

And yet I wouldn't suggest that you saying this means you feel you have an actual say in whether or not he gets sterilized.

You're free to have that opinion and I'm not surprised that you would be for forced sterilization as that seems consistent with your ideology.
