I Tell Trans Person A Very Difficult TRUTH (Heated!) - Katy Jon Went (4K) | heretics. 29

Podcaster Andrew Gold debates trans person Katy Jon Went about trans activism, changing rooms, sports and autogynephilia (AGP). The pair have a fun and interesting discussion, and occasionally disagree. #gendercritical #transdebate #debate
IMPORTANT: Despite our differences, I think Katy is very reasonable, and was courageous and transparent enough to travel to meet me, give up an afternoon and debate/inform me. Whether Katy is a he, she, or they, Katy is certainly not an 'it'. Remember the human in your comments, and use logic and reason WITHOUT ad-hominem attacks on Katy's person.

    @@shadowbeastie An ad hominem logical fallacy is when you use an insult to try and argue a person's position must be wrong. The words, "a cult" would indicate a group's beliefs are "strange or sinister" so that probably counts. Example: imagine Emperor Nero says, "These christians say Christos rose from the dead and they say the apostles are the flesh of Christ and drank his blood. They're a cult! Don't believe them". In this example Nero's only reason offered to not believe Christianity is that they're a cult. Yet Christianity could be true or false regardless of if the majority finds their beliefs strange. So it's a logical fallacy. I have heard the "anti gender movement" referred to as a "cult" and TERFs are mocked on a subreddit called "terfs_are_a_fetish or whatever it was. I've seen trans people called "trans rights activists " if out and seen any out trans person or intersectional feminist called a "cult" from the anti gender movement. It's poison either way to the discussion. Note sometimes you just want to be insulting. I do a lot of time when I check out anti trans propaganda videos. I want to just say, "WTF, are you crazy?" because so much is said that even the first two minutes need massive clarification. Not an ad hominem to just plain insult or troll, it's the internet to flame, but it sounds like they don't want insults either because civility is being encouraged.

    the worry is not about transwomen in changing rooms or bathrooms, that's been going on for decades and no one gives a damn as far as I know or at least , in my personal experience of being in bathrooms with transwomen:) the worry is that with self id, any creep can hijack trans identity, and go in as they want. The only protection there is, is the right to say no to any (male /XY) creep who might try following you in. Bathrooms - in pubs etc , have always been safe spaces to go if someone is being dodgy or to check in with your friend, away from men etc they're not just places to pee, they are wee havens despite no actual physical barriers - the barrier is psychological, and functions a bit like a hymen - it wont stop anyone but we hope you respect it. Anywhere where XX women are naked, or have their knickers round their ankles, the choice to consent as to whether anyone XY can enter is what makes those spaces feel safe, but self id would make this irrelevant. But no access would also mean transwomen would have to rely on good grace which makes them feel vulnerable and not accepted...idk why we cant just ensure gender neutral bathrooms as well as gendered everywhere but perhaps that's my ignorance.....? i'm still a bit confused about that - i find it weird that no one seems interested in finding pragmatic solutions, only ideological rants it's odd. I mean - I totally get why a transwoman wouldnt want to use the mens bathroom, but that's different from wanting specifically to use the womens, so i'm not sure which it is.

    I’m sorry, but you actually believe that this individual is more dangerous than the aggressive, militant, totalitarian activists who, in attacking and defaming women, reveal themselves to have narcissistic, psychopathic personality types? This individual has been willing to change views, political commitments, worldviews, positions, etc over time, is clearly willing to compromise, does not demand that people embrace him as a woman- is actually calling for tolerance, as opposed to submission and conpliance- and is entirely reasonable and measured in everything he’s saying. I disagree with him on some points, such as the feasibility of continuing to allow trans women in women’s spaces, but this person clearly doesn’t pose any threat or malice. I understand feeling so worn out and disgusted and angry by years of dismissal, disrespect, abuse by a totalitarian movement, but try to insist that he is as bad or worse is ridiculous; doing so is unfair to him, and it makes you look silly. Learn to embrace imperfect friends when you’re in a world full of bloodthirsty enemies.

    I’m struggling with my feelings on this interview. Katy comes off as quite rational but then still doesn’t see the position he puts women in. Having been attacked multiple times by strange men, seeing Katy even walk through the women’s change room to the family cubicle would put me into a state of fight, flight or freeze. I’d never be able to go to that establishment again without going into a panic attack. Going to the family cubicle only gives HIM privacy. We however are the ones getting changed when without any warning or choice, are exposed and vulnerable due to one mans feelings being more important than our safety, security and feelings. And what he said about feminists supporting trans women is utter lunacy. Trans rights trample women’s rights. You can’t support trans rights over women’s rights and still be a feminist. Words still have meaning despite all the efforts to dismantle language and common sense.

    Isn't it more of an issue of appearance though? I mean, it's not like you check people's chromosomes before deciding to feel uncomfortable or threatened. I say this because my brother is a transgendered man who started going into women's restrooms since he's a biological female just to make a point. Women objected to a man in the girl's restrooms because he passes as a man very well. Really it just comes down to people not wanting any transgendered people in their bathrooms, so what the hell are they suppose to do? Going into whichever bathroom corresponds to the gender they pass as is the only sane middle ground I can think of.

    @@SpookeyClown , allowing males into female spaces is not a 'middle ground', it's a ceding on the part of women. A trans man poses little to no threat to men, but a man, however he identifies, certainly potentially poses a real threat to women's safety. Then there is right to privacy and dignity to consider too. I don't need to check chromosomes, I've evolved over millions of years to read sex in my own species, our lives have depended on adapting to have this capability, and we do it exceedingly well - even through make-up, prosthetic breasts and dresses. Women should not, and will not, give up their few safe, male-free spaces. Some women may be happy to, but they are not free to give up everyone else's safety because they don't fully understand the issue. Ever heard of urophiles? Menophiles? Exhibitionists? Urophiles? So many men with so many fetishes that rely on access to women to fulfill them, so no, the answer is NO. Still NO and will always be NO. Just because you have a trans sibling means nothing when it comes to women's safety. If it does, please explain how it does.

There have been many nasty incidents in the last few years because of crazy laws that allow men the right to enter women's changing spaces and locker rooms. Male sex perverts also like to enter women's toilets. A man who dresses up as a woman is still male, like it or not. They should not be allowed to make women uncomfortable. Men and women are different and have different needs. However, If women have a right to single-sex privacy, then so do men. Your sister is not a man, no matter what she tells herself.

    When they talked about a lesbian friend inviting them into a women’s changing room at a swimming baths, it reminded me of when I first “PEAKED” meaning becoming gender critical.I had a closer make friend who came out as trans “woman” and I fully embraced it. Taking them, shopping, makeup and beauty, and even buying a real hair fringe clip in to cover their receding hairline. I went out of my way to make them feel included an would try and relate to them by saying, “this is a colour corrector that women with darker skin sometimes use to cover and correct darker areas, so this would be perfect for you “ (meaning their five o’clock shadow but without saying it). I did what this “lesbian” friend did, taking my trans woman friends hand and pulling them in the ladies toilets saying I was welcoming them in. However, this trans woman was taking the NHS where they worked to tribunal over changing rooms. The NHs made them use a separate changing room and toilet in another building because they were male born. The changing room for staff were open communal changing with only one private cubicle. The trans friend wanted me to come as a woman, to give my perspective at the tribunal, to support the trans woman’s claim of discrimination and state that I was fine with the, in women’s spaces. I paused because I knew that there were nurses and doctors who had religious beliefs that did not allow them to change in front of males who are not family. I pointed this out to my so called friend, who immediately dumped me as a friend because I didn’t affirm them. The reason I was cut out of this trans identifying males life was because I didn’t validate them without question. I did think that their male born body being in the female only sex changing facilities was wrong. This was a cardinal sin in trans ideology. I couldn’t morally claim a male who believes themselves to be female had a right in female changing spaces after I thought about the implications, even when I had previously been supportive.

    Nothing inheriently wrong with a man or woman wearing atypical clothing that is stereotypical for the opposite sex. To push those stereotypes on an individual is sexist as there is no stringent way a male or female should dress other than requirements for both of them such as no indecent exposure, no blackface because of it's offensive ties to slavery - similar to how it would be offensive to wear swastikas. To argue that wearing a dress makes a man in any way womanly is regressive for the argument of trying to keep men out of woman spaces so it seems far simpler and reasonable to accept that it is perfectly fine for a man to wear a dress.

    It's extremely misogynistic of him to think he deserves access to female-only toilets and changing rooms, because men using those spaces affects far more women and girls than them invading female-only prisons, sports and refuges. If trans-identifying people don't want to abide by sex-based segregation rules, then they need their own spaces, rather than abolishing sex-based segregation for the rest of us.

    If you watch Matt Walsh's "what is a woman?", some very interesting matters are raised. Not typically discussed by anyone... -the pharm industry makes an average of about a million U.S.dollars per transitioner. (guessing this is partly because some drugs/supplements/etc are meant to be continuously taken until the person passes away.) -Many who transition develop serious and uncomfortable side effects, and a lot of them pass away within about 7 years of their transitioning. (so those claiming 'suic1dal BECAUSE bullying.... well, it sounds like more like wanting to end constant physical pain from the consequences of surgery. May also be some shame attached to having to acknowledge the reality that side effects were not discussed, and that is partially the fault of the person who had the work done) Honestly, the million dollar incentive to push this (at best experimental) agenda..... that alone is enough for me to oppose it.

    This was an interesting conversation; I was first introduced to an adult trans person in the 70s when I was a kid, my aunt & uncle had a trans woman friend. I always agreed with trans rights overall-- should not be harassed, denied jobs, apts., etc. should be treated w/the same respect & civility as everyone else. I get that. But last few years, w/trans women coming into woman's sports & women's spaces more & more, I can't be on board with that. I have PTSD from years of ongoing childhood abuse from multiple sources; when I go in a room to change/pee, or send in my daughter, if I see someone who looks male or sounds male, I get flashbacks and paralyzing fear and have anxiety attacks. It is not fair that I lose that space so someone else takes it for their own comfort level-- I'm all for finding a new space for those people but no, I can't agree to give up my space. I keep getting told that trans women identify with me, as a woman, so I'm a bigot for not being okay with it. Well, to be perfectly blunt, I don't identify with trans women; why don't I get a say about my identity and who I am comfortable being around? And honestly it's not actually trans women that I fear will do something; but opening the doors for self-IDing trans women in any state of transition means that male predators who are not trans can take advantage and gain entrance. And yes females can be criminals and predators to, but it's a more level playing field if I got attacked by a female, it's less likely but if it happened I'm better able to defend myself. I'm all for prisons having trans wings and sports having trans divisions and trans people using family bathrooms and such, and finding ways to protect trans people and make them feel comfortable, but I cannot get on board with biological males gaining entrance to spaces created for biological females and I don't care about how anyone 'identifies' beyond that basic biology, many women like me are just not comfortable with that and we deserve a vote on the issue without being called hateful.

And yet it was only After the Sex Discrimination Act was passed in 1975, that an actual woman could open a bank account in her own name and apply for a mortgage in her own right without the the countersigning of a man. As for public toilets, women were constrained by what was known as the Urinary Leash. Basically tethering them to the home as there were no designated women's toilets.

Maybe men just generally worse at telling the difference compared to women, with gender in general since they are less socially intelligent on average and (generally) inattentive to even their own looks (because they don't face the same pressures as women to be physically attractive) - but what specifically do you look out for that makes you better at it?

    40-45+ years ago there was possibly an element of the forbidden about it but not sexual as I was pre any puberty. After that there was some "sensual" kick. I remember 18 years ago in therapy saying "I hope this IS a fetish, as I don't want to be trans". I worked through that, for 20 years, it became about avoiding being trans. These periods overlapped. I saw therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, a social worker, and even Christian ministers, in the end trans felt like a reluctant fate. There's been neither sensual nor sexual kick for 15 odd years. So I guess my answer is... it wasn't, it was, it isn't any more. Sorry if that's yes and no.

The longer your exposure to estrogen, the higher the risk for breast cancer. As for men taking estrogen, we will see if that increases the number of men diagnosed with breast cancer. The current data says that men are less than 1% of all breast cancer diagnoses. We do not have longitudinal studies on the impacts of men taking female hormones or of women taking male hormones. The big numbers of trans identifying people are in the 2 youngest generations 24% and 28% and it will be years before we have data that can confirm or deny estrogen increasing breast cancer in biological males. Until the data is in, we cannot declare that estrogen increases the risk of breast cancer in men. Men have some estrogen just as women naturally have some testosterone. I haven’t seen any studies linking current breast cancer cases in men to their lower levels of estrogen. If you’ve seen some, please let me know.

    @ginaweith9475 KZread's algorithm must be drunk. For some reason, your reply to me seems to be hidden. I can see it in my notifications, but it doesn't seem to be showing up in the comment thread. You didn't say anything that could be offensive. Yes, men taking cross sex hormones probably still have less of a risk for breast cancer than women. I started menses in elementary school, and I'm 53 and still having periods, although they're getting unpredictable. So, I probably have a higher risk, but at least it puts off osteoporosis for a bit longer.

The fact that you are willing to ignore this shows how ignorant and ideologically stuck y‘all are. Gender dysphoria is a legitimate phenomenon that we have documents of going back thousands of years.

    I have no problem with trans people living as the opposite sex, (there is obviously some form of dysphoria in their lives.) It's the insistence that they ARE the opposite sex, and the insistence that everyone else must accept it, that causes friction. If only they accepted that they are Transexuals and stopped forcing themselves into women only areas, (TIMs) there would be less criticism, and everyone would get on with their own lives. You cannot change your biology, you have to learn to live with it. You cannot force women to accept men into women only spaces. Altering official documents to reflect someone's dysphoria is wrong.

    I’ve lived in Leeds for 10 years which has a huge LGBT scene. My personal experience is that… everyone I’ve met that recognised gender dysphoria, identified it, told their friendship circle then transitioned and went on with their lives and didn’t bring it to the forefront of ever single conversation or interaction with strangers are some of the nicest people I’ve met and some have remained friends. They even accepted that after knowing them for 5-10 years we might slip up and deadname them. For reference I’m in my 30s and my mum still calls me my brothers name ffs. It was an issue that they realised and dealt with like any private problem and then continued on as they wanted with little to no grievance… There is however another group of trans people who bring it up at the start of every conversation, become irate when you slip up, blame everyone for not getting what they want when they want, looking into every sentence to find fault and generally trying to ride the grey area to perpetuate victimhood despite not doing anything other than focusing purely on their identity… it makes it exhausting, nauseating, self centric and to a point you learn nothing else about them other than their trans identity… I don’t care about what you have in your pants or where you want to put it… The former group I mentioned that I personally know are vocally frustrated with the latter as it does nothing but damage their integration into society… an integration of which they just want to get on with their life and seem to do so easily unlike the latter people who want it to be their entire existence… I hate creating stereotype groups but this for me, I am unable to ignore because it’s so clearly split and one I’ve had voiced to me by trans people who are almost trying to distance themselves with the ‘fashionable’ trans community. An anecdotal story but a poignant one… I knew a female transitioned to male and one day went into a shift at a bar… after 3 years of transitioning decided to wear a dress and put in long dreads and wear sleeves to cover the hairy arms… guy came to the bar and said she is serving me… ape shit… crazy… transphobe… etc etc… I’ve never seen anyone gaslight that hard but sadly they were asked to leave… the smile after they get thrown out infuriated me.

They get butterflies in their stomach. Its "exciting". ALL sexual feelings, just not at the level of "porn". Like all 'relationships' over time the sexual becomes less and it evolves into a pleasing feeling, like being with your spouse. Its honestly a very sad existence.

It should be completely illegal for any type of man to go into any women's spaces, whether they still have their 'willy' or not.

    1) "Woman" isn't a social construct. The social constructs are the individual stereotypes (Clothing, hairstyles, personality etc). We each choose a unique set of stereotypes not "man", "woman" or "non-binary". Choosing female stereotypes (and making superficial changes to their body via surgery) does not make someone a woman. 2) Nobody can "identify as" a woman because membership of the "woman" group is based on biology. 3) Nobody can "feel like" a woman. A woman knows from her biology that she's a woman. There's no evidence that there's a single common feeling of "woman" because it's impossible to compare the feelings of people. And women have individual feelings that depend on specific biology (Periods, pregnancy, menopause etc).

    I like him. I feel his plight. But he is no friend to women if he is using our spaces, and knowing that he doesn't pass. He is knowingly making women feel uncomfortable.

    I dont have a problem if blokes want to identify as women, but should not be allowed into women's spaces. We shouldn't be forced to agree with the ideology or pronouns. I also feel we shouldn't be cruel to individuals if they choose to live however they want. They should be separate spaces for them. People who don't agree with this ideology shouldn't be made to feel guilty. There's two genders, which is a fact. However people should recpect other peoples choices to want to live this way, but they should have separate spaces. Biology says that they are not female. It's wrong that women are having to fight yet again for their right.

    They cannot identify as women because they are not women. They are men, end of. Can they like and adopt stereotypical feminine fashion? yes. Can they have fake breasts slapped on their chests? yes, if they're consenting adults. Their choice to "live as women" ends when it infringes on women. Sex matters. Sex is reality. Gender roles and stereotypes are social and cultural.

    A few years ago my teenage niece ran up to and said "auntie! I like bananas!" I was confused and said "you do? Ok then, thats good" She laughed and said "But I had never eaten one because I thought that I wouldnt like them!" And of course I laughed. True story. The point to this story is twofold. Firstly, how can you KNOW that you feel like you are woman if you have never been one? You simply cant say that you like the taste of a banana if you have never tried one. Second. Pretending that you have eaten a banana to convince yourself that you know what a banana tastes like, describing its taste, reliving the memory of tasting it is idiocy at best and mental illness at worst. Unfortunately, its the mental illness part that we should ALL be afraid of.

    I think the gender discussion are enforcing stereotypes of men and women and completely disregard the huge variances within the sexes which leads to drastic irreversible choices by some young people as they do not feel like they fit into their gender - based on a hyper focus on prejudices and stereotypes about what they should be and feel like in their gender. No one is simply just a gender on legs, we are all individuals with a lot more to it than that

    It's not really changed yet. He is wrong. We are not on ICD 12, as he said. We are on ICD 10. Gender dysphoria is classified like this. In DSM 5, it's classified as a mental disorder. There are DISCUSSIONS over how to classify it. And you are right, it should of course be classified as a mental disorder.
