And I'm not saying she shouldn't be held to task for her failings. But this really is a crappy time to distract from a speech that was all about how hard it is for most trans folks. If we take every article about her and make it about what a bad person some feel she is, that isn't gonna hurt her at all. She doesn't…

Depression is treatable, but rarely (if truly ever) curable. A person who treats their depression adequately doesn’t suddenly become happy. They might, however, be able to get up in the morning and shower. Ya know, do things to feel human. That doesn’t mean they smile through it. It’s just easier to do. Meanwhile, it…

But how do you find peace when people like you are disproportionately homeless, disproportionately murdered, disproportionately unemployed and living in poverty, disproportionately sexually assaulted, etc. etc?

My issue when I first read your comment was that it was seemed to be trying to be supportive, but in a clueless way. It seemed to minimize the pain being inflicted on trans people “yeah people are assholes, but everyone deals with adversity and there’s something fundamentally wrong with you if you feel like you want…

“You think people should fight for justice rather than finding any sort of peace.”

All the therapy in the world won’t make a difference, because the problem is society. Like, self-acceptance and all that other touchy-feely jerkoff bullshit is great and all, but if you have to face the reality that society deems your life as inherently worthless every fucking day of your life, paying some asshole to…

Indicate the exact place in my post where I said it’s not treatable. The only person here demonstrating their ignorance and capacity for being an unmitigated asshole is you.

Are you like...nine?

I mean, Caitlyn has been a paid, professional motivational speaker for decades, so she’s well primed for this kind of thing.

It’s so easy! Now at the low low price of $200 an hour for 50 minutes!

just think happy thoughts. easy peasy!

Ugh depression is that simple. Just cheer up and move on, you sad assholes. It shouldn’t be a problem to give up social media, since your family and friends have already ostracized you. Just fucking deal with it, we’ve all got problems!

Not surprised that this comment is coming from you since you’ve made similarly ignorant comments. A lot of trans youth are kicked out of their homes for being who they are. Not by “strangers”, but their family. When you don’t have support from your own flesh and blood, that’s enough for anyone to want to kill…

I’m aware of that. And I’m saying that the omni-present threat of violence leads to suicide. That the knowledge that your society cares so little for you that you can be murdered without consequence leads to suicide.

I think she’s trying to be coy about it. But it looks like Kendall is on to her.

Yes, yes she is. Keepin’ it klassayyyyy.

It’s not just what a stranger says, it’s what your family says, the looks you get in public, the fact that, in all fifty states, someone can murder you and get off scot-free by using the “trans panic” defence. You get that? Trans people can be MURDERED for simply being trans and there is no legal recourse as long as…

I think it would be overly simplistic to describe it as “kill[ing] yourself over something a stranger says.” It’s maybe more like “hearing the same thing from all your friends and family, reflected in society at large, and in many cases internalized in your own beliefs.” A lot of trans kids aren’t going to be able to…

omg did you just solve depression? Mind blown.

Good for her. Great for the people she’s inspiring. Glad to see her kids all there for support. It seems like they’ve really gotten closer. I see they’re all making funny faces and sticking their tongues out (family in joke?) But is Khloe’s an odd choice?
