   @Sherri_Ingrey Which makes the "libertarian" case for transgenderism moot. They aren't doing it as a victimless fetish, the public is the victim.

     @Sherri_Ingrey They (DSM authors) really ought to focus on the " involve nonconsenting persons" part, and move to protect the nonconsenting persons, rather than attack the nonconsenting persons as bigots. As the substack goes into. The can leave out the "cause significant distress"

     The DSM-V defines Paraphilic Disorder as “disorders characterized by persistent and intense atypical sexual arousal patterns that cause significant distress or impairment to the individual or involve nonconsenting persons” and goes on to list eight categories: Exhibitionistic Disorder, Fetishistic Disorder, Frotteuristic Disorder, Pedophilic Disorder, Sexual Masochistic Disorder, Sexual Sadism Disorder, Transvestic Disorder, and Voyeuristic Disorder. While the DSM categorizes these phenomena as disorders only in the instance that it causes significant distress, it is my position that our entire society has been groomed to accept a harmful amount of tolerance for paraphilias that can be conceptualized as Multiple Paraphilia Exposure (coined by Jennifer Thomas in 2024).
     
     This exposure has proliferated through the internet and social media, advertising, and government policy over a prolonged period of time, with an acceleration in the mid-2010’s when “Transgenderism” became the civil rights cause du jour. Under the guise of protecting a “vulnerable minority”, our exposure to aberrant sexual behavior over time has led to a tipping point in which public display of fetish and paraphilia is not only societally accepted but celebrated and enforced. To be clear, “transgender” is another euphemism in a long line of euphemisms for Transvestic Fetishism and is in no way innate, naturally occurring, or evidence of a new sexual orientation that needs protection under the law. Whether it be called transexuality, autogynephilia, or the latest buzzword “autosexuality,” the acceptance of Transvestic Fetishism is opening the door to accepting pedophilia as a sexual orientation that needs equal protection. If a child has expressed a wish to be the opposite sex, this is indicative of having been exposed to paraphilia, either through grooming by online predators, sexual abuse, or mandatory education on Gender Ideology at school. Any attempt to diagnose these children with autogynephilia is to downplay the ways in which we have all been trained to accept the unacceptable and to destroy the safeguarding boundaries set in place to protect the most vulnerable classes of society. https://substack.com/inbox/post/154790428?r=3cfrmo&showWelcomeOnShare=true&triedRedirect=true
