Huh, So this is what passes for a "Hero" these days

You really looked it up? That's a little weird

 

My opinion of him might be different if he wasn't just another poser.

 

Turn the TV off and enjoy your family, who cares what the meat head does. To many great things to do with family, then to worry about someone who has ZERO affect on your life. What he/she/it does , can no way affect your life.

Live/Laugh/Love

 

I wish it didn't affect our lives, that's not really the reality of the world now. There's really no way to avoid the dumbing down and degradation of our society. This is just an example, no different than the hundreds of threads we've had about things that annoy us.

 

It does not affect me or my family one bit. We just all went out to eat and had a great time

Are you related to him or something? How does it effect your life?

 

Great, but I can remember many threads where you have conversed about things that don't directly affect your life. It's all good, it doesn't change who I am and what I do, but I do think about things and how they affect the world.

 

What does it matter to you? It's really no business of yours how it affects me personally. If you don't want to discuss it, you don't have to, yet you continue to involve yourself. Aside from trolling on this tread, I can't figure out why you keep coming back...

 

Well if you want to be that way, its none of your business why I come on this thread and post then. What does that matter to you?

Im willing to bet it doesn't effect you. You allow it to. You are caught up in it in some form or another, even if you wont admit it, and that's why you decided to bring it up. But at the end of the day, as far as I know, you don't know this person and he/she doesn't know you. What you do doesn't effect him and I promise what he does doesn't effect you. Sure, maybe you have kids and they asked you about it or something. But if thats the case, you are a parent, thay are suppose to ask you questions and you teach them. Outside of that, I cant think of any ways it could effect you. Same with soooooooo many other subjects others complain about on here. Don't like it, turn the tv off, or change the channel, or go to another website, or whatever. The less people care, the less it will air. Complaining about it means you care enough to complain.

 

Your right I do care, I care about the degradation of our society. If no one speaks their minds about the problems we have in society then how do we expect those problems to be addressed.

There were millions of people that didn't know Hitler personally too, yet his actions lead to their deaths. Just because you don't know someone, doesn't mean their actions won't have an impact on your life or your families life. No, I'm not comparing Jenner to Hitler, I'm just pointing out that our society is an a very sensitive time right now. We can either bury our heads in the sand and just pretend this stuff doesn't affect us, or we can speak out about it. If you don't like the message, that's fine nobody's making you listen.

 

But it does affect you, it affects us all as part of a larger society. As much as we may like to, we can't disconnect ourselves and our families from this sort of crap. Pushing a narrative that it's not only okay but encouraged to share in these freaks delusions is not healthy to the individual or society in general. That's my last post in the thread.

 

I think most people who are fed up with it, like I am, are just tired of hearing about it. It has settled down now but, a month ago it was all you heard about or saw on social media. If you don't want the negative attention then why sit in the spotlight is what i've always wondered.

 

Haha really? Hitler? He did harm people. Millions. You are right, that doesn't effect me. But, it effects so many in a negative way. Way different story, this case no one is being harmed. If he wants to get breasts and wear a dress, who in the world does that harm? Same amount of people as I harm from wearing a flat brim hat. Or Larry the Cable Guy harms for cutting his sleeves off. So whats the problems in society? There are plenty, not sure what any have to do with Jenner though. Its your example and posts, so please explain.

If there is anything wrong in the post you mentioned, its the hate filled in you enough to call someone a freak because he wants to wear a dress and grow boobs. That has no effect on you, so why insult that group of people? Why care what they do? It does not effect us. My life has not changed in the slightest (with the exception of these conversations, but there will always be something to debate) since "freaks" have been socially acceptable.

 

And it's not just Jenner that I'm fed up with, it's all this crap that is engineered for the low information crowd. Reality TV, sensationalist media, instant media with no fact checking.

I try not to sensor my child, but I really don't want my 12 year old daughter watching 16 and Pregnant, Party Down South, Teen Mom, Pitbulls and Paroles, the list goes on. I wish that every time she turns on the TV it isn't something that I would rather she didn't have to experience.

 

Cheese and rice. My entire purpose of this thread had less to do with Jenner than it did with the direction of our society. It had less to do with Jenner than it did to do with how the media continues to force feed a narrative of outlandish behavior and how we as a society should accept it as normal. You clearly didn't understand the underlying point of the whole thread and though I in some way cared about what Bruce Jenner does with his life. I couldn't care less about that, but I also don't want it force fed through outlets like ESPN and the mainstream media like it has been.

 

When we have to explain to our children about him, or cher's freak child or any other of them. It impacts us.

Please read that definition and explain how it is that Jenner is not categorized in that specific context.
It isn't hate, I have nothing but sympathy for these freaks because they continually subject themselves to anguish through their own actions because they are mentally ill. I would like to see them all get mental help and solve their problems. Labeling it as "hate" is a lazy, simpleton way of trying to tell others you disagree with to shut up.
(I really am trying to stop posting in this thread....really)

 

Well that is incredibly lazy.

But I will say that the push for complete acceptance for transgenderism, especially the surgeries, is harmful. If someone comes to a doctor and asks for the doctor to amputate their completely normal, functioning arm, the doctor recommends therapy for that person and everyone agrees that person needs therapy. But a person asking a doctor to remove their penis or breasts or reconstruct their bodies in others way, just in the name of trangenderism, we are supposed to 100% accept this and not treat the mental aspect of it? It doesn't make sense. Transgenderism is a mental disorder and saying that shouldn't be treated as an insult to the person.

 

My daughter is 14 years and has no idea who he/she is, it's really not that hard.

How is explaining his freakish activity being Lazy?

Being Lazy would be accepting what the freaks are doing and looking the other way.
