I’m not talking about attraction I’m talking about choice. You said it yourself that some people are not attracted physically to the person they marry but do it for a variety of reasons.
Many people choose spouses that they are not attracted to because of other qualities. Sexual attraction is one of many variables in mate selection and not necessarily the most important over the long spectrum of a relationship.
And yes, gender identity and sexual preference are not necessarily co-related. I agree. I believe that the decision to transition has a lot to do with sexual interest, not just, or perhaps more so, then what the person identifies as their gender. That is my belief. Hence the concept of autogynophilia for heterosexual trans people and mate selection for homosexual trans people.
I also say this because I’ve noted that transgendered individuals have very colorful sex lives that seem adventurous, frequent, and at times dangerous To their safety and careers. I’m not saying heterosexuals do not do this as well, but it seems the frequency of which it happens in this population appears to me to denote some lack of regulation or self control related to their sexual activity, at least from what I have witnessed and am hearing about. This does not
Mean that there aren’t trans people with healthy sex lives or relational lives. I just haven’t encounterd one yet.
As for cherry picking studies I think one must be choosy as many of the studies used by the trans community to support their claims are reported by experts as suffering from significant methodological problems. That particular paper we are talking about actually includes a large number and spectrum of papers, about 500. That is a heck of a lot of cherries to include in the bowl. What cherries are missing from that review article? Do you have titles of studies that should have been included? I am interested to look at them.
I totally support freedom to choose and the freedom to seek out your happiness as defined by your world view. I support he legal rights of homosexuals to have legal partnerships, but when you impose your lifestyles on religious institutions I have a problem with that. When laws are being created to target religious people or medical people who do not feel the science is legitimate based on reason alone, I have a big problem With that. When you take steps to create an icing effect where it is not even safe to talk about it professionally it feels evil and oppressive. The LGBT community is becoming the point group for the radical left that wants to de legitimize free discourse and thought. Claiming other people are hateful or need to be censored or arrested or fired because your feelings are hurt, because you are offended, is not an effective strategy to gain societal support, but it sure is if you want pay back or revenge for percieved and real wrongs or want to censor opposing view points, research, and free communication. It is tyrannical.
Thank you for challenging me and responding.
