When BS is just that

Yes, sometimes bullshit is just that, pure, simple, unadulterated bullshit. Ok, you're game for what? Well, I was reading about autogynephilia which some therapist use to describe transsexuals and why they want to transistion and become women, the imagination of being and having sex as a women. So what's the problem?

Well, a researcher at the Institue of Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, which is a think-tank for a bunch of quack psychologists who want to label people than treating them and labelling with their own terms which in reality is degrading and demeaning, did a study of 29 women at a hospital to find women have autogynphilia. Huh?

Autogynphilia is a term used to describe people, except they restrict it to women and transwomen, who imagine having sex as women. Like that's new or news? But a term restricted to women and transwomen?

This is because they focus their research on women and transwomen forgetting one simple fact of human nature. It's called masturbation. Everyone does it and everyone imagines themselves in both roles during their imaginary sex. That's human nature and human imagination.

But these folks decide to focus this label toward one class, transwomen, and now they're focusing on women, to compare them to transwomen and therefore put all women in the class of people. Except they forgot one thing. Even men imagine having sex as women. Studies at universities have shown at least 50% of the male respondents admited this and many of the rest fudged their answers.

What they're trying to do is establish the reason transwomen transistion is for sex, either as gay men wanting to be women for sex with men or as suffering autogynphilia and wanting to be and feel like women for sex with men. It's a self-fulfilling idea about people just enjoying sex, whether with someone or by themselves.

Now they want to add women too. And yet, they don't put this label on men or female-to-male transsexuals (transmen). What, men don't like to masturbate? Men don't wonder what it's like to be a woman during sex? Get real, men masturbate more often than women and every man wonders what sex is like as a woman.

This very small study is pure bullshit. But it's not just bullshit, it's sexism at its worst, to all women.
