Please rate yourself on a scale of 0-20 by adding up points from the following categories. Select whichever option is closest to your opinion, as I cannot allow for infinite detail with 5 steps. Medical: 0 - Transgender medicine should be banned in its entirety for the purpose of "gender transition". 1 - Transgender medicine should generally be banned, but should be allowed in extreme cases for mentally ill adults kept under supervision who would otherwise be very likely suicide risks. 2 - Transgender medicine should be allowed for adults and completely banned for minors. 3 - Transgender medicine should be allowed for adults. It should be allowed for minors with the mutual consent of the medical practitioner, child, and both parents. 4 - Transgender medicine should be allowed for adults and children, and there exists at least 1 case for which parental consent should not be required, for instance but not limited to "chronically physically and/or psychologically abusive parents". Social: 0 - People identifying as "transgender" should be obligated to facilities that confirm with their birth sex. 1 - People identifying as "transgender" should be discouraged from using facilities that match their "gender identity", but legal punishments should remain rather low to serve as a mere deterrent. 2 - Transgenders should be able to use bathrooms which comply with their gender identity without legal punishment. However, the institution has a right at any time to tell that person they may not use a certain bathroom, or tell an employee they cannot use a certain bathroom. Public institutions have a right to reject "gender identity" based justifications for prisons, abuse shelters, welfare programs, etc. 3 - Bathrooms should be "Self-ID". Prisons, shelters, womens' universities, etc. should require some proof of previously completed surgery. The state, in the case of prisons, has no obligation to pay for your "trans healthcare". 4 - Bathrooms should be "Self-ID". Prisons, shelters, womens' universities, etc. should only require some "evidence of earnest desire to transition". The state, in the case of prisons, has an obligation to pay for your "trans healthcare". Legal: 0 - Legal gender changes should not be allowed under any circumstance. 1 - Legal gender changes should require proof of surgical "transition". 2 - Legal gender changes should require some proof of chemical "transition". 3 - Legal gender changes should be the matter of submitting a document. 4 - Legal gender changes should be the matter of submitting a document. Private business institutions should have to respect your "legal gender". Sports: 0 - Transgenders should not be allowed in sports that align with their so-called "gender identity". 1 - Transgenders should be banned from professional sports, but allowed up to the high-school level. 2 - Transgenders should generally be banned from professional sports, but there is at least 1 possible exception. 3 - Organizations have the right to set standards, but there should be no categorical ban on "transgender" as a group competing within their "gender identity". Media: 0 - Transgenderism should warrant an 18+ rating and some additional censorship. Positive depictions of transgenderism should be treated akin to positive depictions of rape, incest, necrophilia, or drug use. 1 - Transgenderism should warrant an 18+ rating. 2 - Companies generally have a right to add transgender to their media, but there should be restrictions on media targeted to everyone. 3 - Companies and authors have a unilateral right to add transgender themes or characters to their movies, books, games, TV shows, etc. even if they happen to be targeted at children or have a likely significant child audience. Ontology: 0 - "Trans women" are men and "trans men" are women. Essentially: transgenderism is a lie. 1 - Some meaningless half-answer. Examples include "does it really matter?" "it depends on who you ask" or "that's a meaningless question without an answer". 2 - "Trans men are men and trans women are women". Biases: I am a Russian Orthodox Christian who is devoutly going to Church. I believe that the Church does not err in its teaching, and that includes the Church's teaching on "gender" and "sexuality" issues. So, I am in favor of the complete banning of LGBT in any facet of public life. I am a monarchist. I am a husband and a father. Despite this, I tried to write these as fairly to both sides as possible, so both sides, the correct side and the degenerate side, would not have issues with the wording or examples listed. I feel I was fair, but if anyone disagrees he or she is free to comment. If the critique is salient, I will edit. Expectations: I believe there are only two truly consistent answers: 0, the path of rejecting transgender ideology, and 20, the path of completely embracing transgender ideology. Despite that, I expect most of Liberal Manifold to be split between the 10-15 and 16-19 options. This is for two reasons. Firstly, Manifold is generally filled with people who like to think themselves smarter than their peers and even God, and to engage in this type of intellectual masturbation which serves only the ego and not Him, it is necessary to disagree with everyone around you, whether they be Christians or even the Woke. Secondly, transgenderism is just ridiculous. And most people, especially men, can see that when you take transgenderism to its logical conclusion. That's why I think it is tantamount to make the argument that transgenderism cannot be divorced from its ugliest aspects, because all transgender arguments ultimately rest on the same ontological foundation. Feel free to comment your score-card if you feel so inclined.
