>my identity is valid because I say it is and you are literally oppressing me by disagreeing.

look, im okay if faggots want to pretend their mental diseases are valid genders, more power to them, sure.
But fat people ARE a problem. DIABETES is a massive problem worldwide. Government subsidies diabetes treatment in many countries. NO ONE wants to fuck the fatty, and most probably said fatty wants a THIN person to like his/her fatness. Fat people work SLOWER, and certainly you cant put them to work on heavy or delicate jobs that wont include sitting all day.
Its not a matter of media telling us what to do, society itself needs active people who wont feel like dying for using the stairs once a day. Fuck you whoever did that cartoon.

>gender isn't a preference, it's your identity!
>here's a bunch of them, you gotta figure out which one you actually are

gen·der

1. the state of being male or female

I hate how many arguments are based on creating new definitions for words, then yelling about how everyone who uses the already established meanings are wrong.

>this is discriminatory

Stuff like this makes me wish for the apocalypse.

>3/6

Except not being able to meet basic physical requirements for a job is a perfectly valid reason for not accepting someone for a job. Why would you even apply for a job consisting of manual labor if you can't perform it. It's like a blind person applying to be a bus driver. How can a person not understand that some jobs have basic physical requirements?

>4/6

>here's a physical job, obviously that's discriminating against the disabled!
Why are people trying to apply for jobs they are incapable of doing?
>asking you to have a car, obviously that means you can't be late even once!
I didn't own a car for years, got to work on time, maybe people should stop leaving themselves a two minute buffer to arrive on time?

The hell is this, "List of excuses I tried in my Discrimination Lawsuit that the judge threw out"?

>5/6

I don't really give a shit what some random person wants to draw to make themselves feel better

That said, they're confusing androgyny (the combination of masculine and feminine traits) with gender dysphoria.

A boy with soft features, large lips and eyelashes, and a short pointed chin is androgynous. A girl with a strong chin and sharp features and facial hair is androgynous. That's nothing to do with being "nonbinary(?)"

No no no you're looking at the wrong thing
Read carefully the SECOND to last panel
>gender is not a flavor of the week
He literally just compared it to "new flavors"

If you are incapable of interacting with people in a professional setting or are mentally or physically disabled enough to be unable to perform a job, then you shouldn't do that job. You shouldn't even be applying for those sorts of jobs. While the whole bit about transportation is somewhat true, the main reason that they want you to have reliable transportation is so that they can know that you'll be at work on time consistently. If I ran a restaurant or factory and didn't have a guarantee that my employees would be there on time for their shifts, how the fuck could I even get anything done for the customers?

I like how they're pointing out certain aspects of how American life fucks the poor and disabled and then blames it on the mcdonalds trying to hire teenagers instead of the lack of social safety nets.

Soooo they sort of admit that all this myriad genders thing is just an identity and self image choosing and building thing, similarly to how some kids used to define and present themselves as "goth" a while back?

This is getting dumber by the page.

That's the problem with it. It has some valid points, but others that are completely stupid and illogical.

that's not male presenting anything
also not a skirt

I'm so glad I'm cis, white, straight, male, and American. It's so simple and clean. I know my place in the world, and I can function without thinking about what new gender is being made or what problematic thing I need to feel bad about today.

this one doesn't seem objectionable at all, you'd have to be a /stormfag/ to even-

There is the first problem. Job applications for low level work are just paper requirements, as long as you can come to work, you will do fine.

Take it from this skeleton user, work on getting fit instead. Losing weight and ending up thin won't make you happy. Work on developing your muscles. If you are heavyweight, it means you are halfway there.

He was just bi. You think Ziggy would start spouting this schizophrenic nonsense instead of releasing another hit album?

wow this one actually hits home kind of hard. among my friends im that guy

How do these relate to women's rights in any shape or form.

Literally around the world right now, there are women being sold as slaves, forced to marry, and not allowed to be educated. And these first world special snowflakes are literally touching the most irrelevant topics to feminism like fucking retardism. This isn't even about feminism to SJW anymore. It's about finding the most obscure minorities they can find and pandering them.

The guy that has to celebrate doing basic, normal shit like a mentally challenged kid because he has nothing else and can't do anything right?

I could not agree more with that image.

This makes actual sense, nobody regardless of gender should be forced to smile in public if they don't want to.
And trust me, I go through that shit whenever I'm out some times.

>described sexually assaulting a married woman on tape
Fucked up, does this artist think that it only matters if she has a husband? As if she's someone's property? Thought these were feminist comics.

Bowie was experimental or bi at most. Later interviews show a lot of it was made up for the persona of Ziggy.

and even worse, by doing that, they undermine whatever real issues and points they might have.

>How do these relate to women's rights in any shape or form.
something something intersectionality

>And these first world special snowflakes are literally touching the most irrelevant topics to feminism like fucking retardism.

>Nancy, don't look now, but that truck is totally smiling at you

I mean I think it's a good tactic for people who don't have any self esteem or confidence. Overblown self deprecation is lame and communicates to other people they can't rely in you.

It's a cultural thing.
Fake smiles are garbage, that's why I like slavs who don't feel the need to put one on.

Androgyny means that you possess both male and female identifying characteristics in such a manner as to make you immediately unidentifiable as either. It isn't a fucking mantle that you can choose to drape over your shoulders whenever it feels convenient for you, holy shit.

I take it this is the personality-wise version of those comics where the author pretends he or she is more attractive than in real life.

I met more openly conservative people than liberals in Cali though. I lived there for 4 years.

>The Harsh Cycle Shutting Trans Actors Out of Movies and TV

>And you might have heard the excuses for this pattern, called cis-washing. Some people say cisgender actors just happen to be landing these roles because they’re more experienced.

>But these people aren’t recognizing the endless cycle that’s keeping trans actors from getting more experience. This comic really puts in perspective the invisibility of trans actors.

If anyone hates themselves because of how they look and are embarrassed from it and can help it but dont do anything, they're retarded

>militant deaf people
Are they luddites or something?

Yeah...that shit is for real.

They even keep their children deaf when they could get surgery to hear.

Because being deaf is some sort if ethnicity to them.

Building a little muscle is a good way to burn some fat but it should absolutley not be your focus. Muscles are not fitness. Fitness is being able to jog for 5 minutes without having a heart attack. Cardio should always be your #1 concern. 15 mins of weight training and 45 mins of hardcore cardio 3 times a week with 30 minute walks (slowly escilate to jogs when you're fit enough) on your off days will have you looking and feeling better in no time flat. You don't even need to significantly alter your diet (trust me, you'll need the energy). Hard work and guts, that's the ticket to being happy with who you see in the mirror.
