Transgender: Victims of Societal Prejudice or Dangerous Criminal Perverts?

Posted on | February 25, 2016 | 95 Comments

 

Davina Ayrton, 34, was known as David Ayrton until 2013, and in 2004, David Ayrton raped a 15-year-old girl in England:

A transgender woman has been found guilty of raping a girl when she was a man called David – and has been sent to a male prison.
A jury convicted Davina Ayrton, who changed her name from David three years ago, of the sexual attack on a 15-year-old girl in the autumn of 2004 following a week-long trial at Portsmouth Crown Court. . . .
The court heard that Ayrton, who has a son, has learning difficulties and has been living at the Heywood Sumner House care home in Fordingbridge.
The court was also told that the 34-year-old attempted to commit suicide last summer. . . .
The court was also told that Ayrton was convicted of possessing indecent images of children at Bournemouth Crown Court in January 2014. . . .
The trial heard that Ayrton had met up with the victim, who had run away from home, and two friends on an evening in the autumn of 2004 and gone drinking in a garage which had a sofa and chairs in it.
The victim described how she screamed and shouted at Ayrton, who was 23 at the time, to stop but failed to wake up her friend and her boyfriend who were sleeping nearby.
The prosecution was brought after a care worker reported that Ayrton had confessed to the rape in January 2014 and also told her that she was a “paedophile” and that she had “always known there was something wrong with me and I need help”.

One of the weird things about “social justice” is how it divides people into collective categories of identity, based on political notions of “oppression” and “privilege.” This concept enables very bad people to claim victimhood, while stigmatizing honest citizens as oppressors. We are supposed to feel pity for Ayrton, a transgender “woman” who has learning difficulties, etc., but what about the 15-year-old girl Ayrton raped? How many pedophiles are also transgender? How many dangerous criminals are lurking within these Victim of Society categories that “social justice” ideology creates?

Because, really, why not hire more lesbian school teachers?

    “divides people into collective categories of identity, based on political notions of “oppression” and “privilege.”

    What better way to raise outrage and get other people to dog pile on white men and force them to change as prescribed by and for the instigators?

    The Progressive Left is always first in line to “shock the bourgeois” because it gets its collective jollies from the destruction of Western Civilization and pissing off those of us with a traditional world view. Thus, the jumping on the “T” part of the “LGBT” bandwagon.

    Then the rapes start happening.

    And when the outrage about males attacking females in restrooms arises, we can refer the Left to the Chesterton’s tale of the gate.

    This all pretty consistent with an assertion that LGBTQIWTF is just a coalition of mental illness and deviancy. Throw feminism into that mix and you’ve got yourself a mental asylum.

    We are told that we need to stop using words like “he” and “she” because “for some people, gender is not that simple, and they feel excluded from society.”

    Then why don’t we change our entire language because blind people feel left out?

    Have you ever used words like “red,” “chartreuse,” “plaid,” “horizon,” “reflective,” “fog” or “stars”? Then you are oppressing the blind, damn you! Phrases like “take a look in the mirror” or “outside looking in” mean nothing to them, and you say such things every day!

    And why are there windows in our homes? To a blind person, it’s just a part of the wall that’s really cold to the touch.

    Even our national emblem excludes the blind, for what does a flag way up on a pole mean to them?

    And while we’re at it, how offensive is it that we put radios in cars that we sell to deaf people? It just reinforces their freakishness and the fact that they are outside of normal society!

    If we’re including everybody, then… well, then life gets stupid.

    “Trangenders” are insane. End of story.

    Correct its a means of removing individual responsibility for actions outside the ‘norm” and instead assigning them the protection of a group.

    Ill use a crude analogy. (apologies to servicemen Im trying to break it down into terms an SJW might appreciate)
    I shoot 10 people Im a mass murderer.
    I shoot 10 enemies as part of an army and Im a hero.

    Similarly.
    I hang around girls changerooms Im a pervert.
    I hang around CIS white girls changerooms as a tranny and im a hero.

    My individual perversion becomes a ’cause’ through the mysterious alchemy of an ideology almost completely made and run by people with mental instabilities. (google nearly any seminal feminists name and ‘mental breakdown” if you doubt that)

    That is not the origins of the “he/she” thing. It’s origins lie in post-structuralist thought about how power structures are maintained by language, most famously by Jacques Derrida and Monique Wittig and further explored by Judith Butler as a means to subvert compulsory heterosexuality.

    Permit me to suggest that (a) predator sexuality and (b) “gender dysphoria” are correlated phenomena produced by underlying conditions (c) neurological defects, (d) dysfunctional home environment, and (e) the pervasive decadence of a culture far gone in its decline toward anarchy.

    A society that knows right from wrong, a society that is confident in itself, will not hesitate to “impose its morality” on its citizens through law, through rules and customs and institutions that defend society’s moral basis. However, early in the 20th century, atheists and socialists called into question the moral basis of American civilization and, rather than organizing to extinguish these corrupting influences, a substantial segment of our social elite succumbed to the seducing siren song of Progress and Equality. By 1951, when Buckley published God and Man at Yale, this poison had already spread its destructive effects among the elite, and it seems impossible to find an anecdote.

    That is because long before 1951, not just the self-selected elites, but most Americans, had already abandoned Christ, no matter that they still went to church.

    The “anecdote” is Christ, always and only: only when we as a people repent of turning our backs on Christ, who *is* Life Itself, can he bless us with life. We die because we reject Life.

    So stipulated.

    So what?

    How about “not all males.” Undoubtedly true, but that still does not support allowing males to prowl around female restrooms or locker rooms. Why? To provide protection from the minority of evil people.

    What the Progressives are doing is eliminating that protection–appealing to specious arguments regarding “bigotry,” based upon mental illness. Guy in a trench coat in the girls locker room gets arrested. Guy in panties and a bra gets a fucking parade.

    February 26th, 2016 @ 12:26 pm

    Let’s start with (e) the pervasive decadence of a culture far gone in its decline toward anarchy.

    In a culture producing technological change, you’d be hard pressed NOT to find social upheaval. One of the best known examples in the Roaring 20s in America. The two go hand in hand. A big reason is technology and understanding create new problems of their own.

    In addition, changing economic conditions create social stresses where literally the old “solutions” do not work anymore and people have to forge new ones out of old ideals and new visions. The solutions of the 1950s and 1970s aren’t going to work in the 2010s because it’s literally not the same world anymore. Likewise the world of the 1970s was not the world of the 1930s and 1950s. Life goes on, we change and adapt.

    There is no such thing as a transgender, just as there is no such thing as a trans-chicken. If a guy thinks he’s a chicken, we feel pity and put the schmuck in a rubber room. If a guy wants to think he’s a girl we honor “his courage.” No, he’s just as mentally ill as the guy who thinks he’s a chicken.

    A guy who has surgery to look like a girl is simply a eunuch that thinks it’s a girl. The mutilation is just one more data point on the route to a diagnosis of mental illness.

    Now let’s talk about (a) predator sexuality.

    Humans are predators, it’s part of the biology. It’s even turned up a notch or two in most males.

    But civilization means we find ways to channel those strong urges and impulses into something productive or at least relatively harmless. It may be the military or the fire department. It may be sports. It may be custom cars. It may be journeying around the world.

    I absolutely agree with you that the home condition can turn this around, specifically the lack of a good male role model,

    The word is still out on if alternative sexualities are dysfunctional. I’d say that it’s more obvious today because we’re hiding less.

    I do object to the constant demand that unusual sexualities be celebrated and taught. My own philosophy is that it is enough that I “acknowledge but not celebrate,” After all, it’s not my sexuality.

    I’m disagreeing that the condition equals a crime, or that by itself the condition shows that crime will occur and the transgender is automatically guilty.

    There is no such thing as transgender. It is fabricated to cover up a male sexual compulsive, a fetish that often includes violent sexual behaviors and exhibitionism. They use little gender confused children and their, easily influenced attention seeking parents as a deflection– to put a sympathetic face out to the public. Transgender woman are all men and they have raped, and murdered 1000’s of women, children and men. This is what Transgender is :Autogynephilia is defined as a male’s propensity to be sexually aroused by the thought of himself as a female. It is the paraphilia that is theorized to underlie transvestism and some forms of male-to-female (MtF) transsexualism. Autogynephilia encompasses sexual arousal with cross-dressing and cross-gender expression that does not involve women’s clothing per se. The concept of autogynephilia defines a typology of MtF transsexualism and offers a theory of motivation for one type of MtF transsexualism. Autogynephilia resembles a sexual orientation in that it involves elements of idealization and attachment as well as erotic desire. Nearly 3% of men in Western countries may experience autogynephilia; its most severe manifestation, MtF transsexualism, is rare but increasing in prevalence. Some theorists and clinicians reject the transsexual typology and theory of motivation derived from autogynephilia; their objections suggest a need for additional research. The concept of autogynephilia can assist clinicians in understanding some otherwise puzzling manifestations of nonhomosexual MtF transsexualism. Autogynephilia exemplifies an unusual paraphilic category called ‘erotic target identity inversions’, in which men desire to impersonate or turn their bodies into facsimiles of the persons or things to which they are sexually attracted.
