The problem isn't with the disagreement or the disrespect the problem is prefacing the diagreement or disrespect with a lie
I don't care if you disrespect trans or whatever just dont say
"i totally want to give you respect, but you are a he" It's one or the other.
She's basically saying don't piss on me and tell me it's raining.

So in order to truly respect a trans person you have to acquiesce to their ideas on what gender is despite whatever your own views are? Sounds pretty stupid.

So according to you it is more respectful to lie to your face about one's views on gender in the name of "courtesy" than to just tell you what one really thinks? Interesting.

It doesn't always have to be a pseudo-intellectual debate, you know. A real intellectual would understand that

If I had a friend who identified as a cow I would refer to them as a cow. It has to do with respect and empathy. It don't think people identifying as animals is very common at all, but it does happen. I don't see what difference it makes. I never said I'd ever be 100% biologically female. I identify as female, I can't not, trust me I tried. That is reality for me. My chromosomes can't be changed currently, but I am a woman. A trans woman is a type of woman.

Lol get real. There is nothing pseudo-intellectual about what I'm saying. It's just a basic understanding of true respect. Sorry you think respect is pretending to agree with someone.

No, it's a basic understanding of how to callously invalidate somebody's identity, which is incredibly offensive regardless to what that identity is.

Let's you you don't agree with trans people that's fine but in order to respect them you need to use the correct pronoun. You can still disagree, and offer respect by saying she/her ect.
The respect and diagreement are not mutually exclusive.

How does someone simply stating their views on gender invalidate your identity? You obviously don't agree with the opinion of the person you replied to. If your own identity is so fragile that some random on the internet can invalidate it, you have other issues.
Go back and read the post you replied to and your reply. All that person did was state their opinion. You implied that it is impossible to truly respect trans people if you don't agree with their opinions on gender, or at least tiptoe around the subject in their presence in the name of 'courtesy'. That's just plain ridiculous and actually just shows a lack of respect for the ability of trans people to not be little bitches feelings-wise.

Fully agree
We have to walk on egg shells around many Trans. Many of the ones on this board can't seem to grasp that I don't need to agree with their views to respect them as a person
You worded it much better than I could have tho

I cant invalidate your identity. That is insecurity. I do believe the distinction between sex and gender is contrived. The surgery and treatment isnt really a treatment, but a terrible irresponsibe reaction by the medical community to a mental health problem, because we dont do a thing for these people. For conveniance, we normalize mental disorders. We call depression a mental disorder, but not wanting to have your genitals removed and be on cancer causing horones.
I realy dont see how I could be any more fair. It doesnt make me respect you less, you just percieve it as so. Im genuinely concerned for those that want surgeries that shouldnt even be acceptd by the medical community considering the high rate of regret and physical risks associated and not disclosed
estrogen is getting in all of your cells. If you get cancer, it will be in your bones and completely beyond medical intervention.

Gender Dysphoria is the disorder, and treatment is varying degrees of transistioning. Most girls don't get the surgery, and passing as a normal girl is usually when there is very little trace of any disorder. Most people don't regret it. Sure some do, but it is absolutely the exception. No medical procedure has 100% success rate, that I am aware of. Transistioning produces for the most part, happy campers.
