    I thought the whole thing with gender dysphoria is that it wasn’t normal?

      Uncommon and abnormal are not the same thing.

      Something can be rare and still normal.

        Maybe we have our definitions in a twist. I wouldn’t define “abnormal” to be negative or derogatory. Just “uncommon”

          Uncommon things are entirely normal.

          It is entirely normal for humans to develop different body forms and mental makeups.

          It is the very process of long term evolution. And to be expected in any species.

            I don’t think a “normal” person exists

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
