    I worked for an iron mine and there was a 25 y/o telling me to take roids or T for “the gains”, while others were saying that T helped them keep up the pace to chase younger women. They seemed unhinged.

    Unless your doctor tells you that you need it (there are some cases that it makes sense, also this comment is not touching on trans issues), you shouldn’t fuck with hormones.

      I’ve been calling people going on T “gender affirming care”. Your body naturally slows down as it ages; going against nature is an affront to God and serves only to push the narrative that you aren’t getting older, despite the inevitable still occurring. If you want to take hormones to change your body, you can go to a socialist country like France or Canada.

      The knots in the brain are visible from miles away, it’s great.

        Wish I had been that sort of clever 6 months ago.

        Also this was in Canada but they were the “I wanna” “Fuck Trudeau” types, so a little rework and it would have been perfect.

          I don’t get how anyone could look at the state of the US and go “yes, this is what I want my country to strive to become”.

            Yeah, neither do I. And I can’t seem to get an honest answer out of them. Also they have a obvious daddy complex. They keep prattling on about a “strong leader who is a man”

              The guy who shits on himself, who’s wife openly hates him, and who Putin treats like a personal puppet? It’s so frustratingly ridiculous what people assume of this dude. Guy thinks they had planes in the Civil War, and people will say he’s the smartest person in The Hill. GUY BANKRUPTED A CASINO. PROFITS ARE BUILT INTO THE MODEL.

          None of it is serious, all in jest. I gotta really pour it on with people IRL cause I live in a conservative/religious area.
