Transphobic Heckler Ruins His Own Life - Steve Hofstetter 

you are doing it wrong lol Trans rights are the same as pedophile rights, or flat earther rights, as in they dont have any LMAO trans people are less than 1% of all people and what you think is trans people really are just liars hoping on a bandwagon. Being trans is the new ADHD LMAO

oh this is gonna be viral i bet

Roasted him.... I love it!💯🔥🔥🔥👏

Missed the Richmond show due to COVID, I'll catch you when you pass though again.

Great set! Glad you put him in his place, the gutter!

I love watching those drunk people having a hard time walking up the stairs ; I didn't know Standup show audiences were that drunk.

Why? Because he cares about womans safety and feelings?

​@@Luni-ew9qwso imagine you're a single dad or a single woman, you're both men or women, or you're just simply on a day out with your kids while your partner is not near. Your kid of the opposite sex needs to go to the toilet. What are you going to do? Trust a stranger or take them with you into the room socially acceptable for you so that you don't offend adult people of the other sex and have control over the situation?

​@@Luni-ew9qw You think someone will take medication and do surgery to remove their penis so they can be in the women's bathroom and touch girls? Did you notice the women were transgender? Two were a little closer and stage right. I thought they were women until Steve mentioned they were trans

@@Luni-ew9qw Caring about women's safety isn't heckling a comedy show. That's just loudly disagreeing when your supposed to shut up and listen or leave. Caring would be doing something to support the situation and not sitting on his ass yapping about something he clearly hasnt looked into.

🤣😂😅😆😄😅🤣

Comedy show hmmm

I thought it was funny 🤣

Yup. No biggie to her. Girl's gotta get laid and I can relate. But that guy? WHY?!?🤭

Lool I know them, she share his opinions and she liked him more after that... I thought the same at first 😂

Yhea, you just know what u truly are and go in the right one.

“Boop!” At the end was chefs kiss!

​@@PsychoDude why are you saying it like that? That's weird, dude.

@@chrisnotpratt1903 sorry, whats weird about it?

I live in a state where we had a bathroom bill proposed some years ago. Any time someone claimed support of it, I asked them if they would volunteer to check junk at the door. IMAGINE MY SURPRISE THAT NO ONE WOULD.

literally!!!! these people always forget about us trans men. like im not even on testosterone yet but i get weird looks when i go to women's bathrooms to accompany my mom...

​@@felixt808 Same. At the moment I look androgynous (can't take T as often as I should since I'm allergic) so I get looks no matter which bathroom I use. Honestly, more single stall, gender neutral washrooms is a must. Like, even cis people, who wants to be around other people when trying to do their business?

​@@SappyDuderIt's the obvious, easy answer which should get everyone's approval.

@@jomc20 edit: sorry, I misinterpreted what you meant. I can get confused easily and for that I really do apologize. Except there is no obvious answer I ALWAYS got looks when I went in the women's room, even before I started transitioning, so I never "had everyone's approval." So, where, pray tell, should I have gone to the bathroom then? I just want to pee. 90% of the time I use the gender neutral bathroom, it's just when places only have gendered washrooms that I use a gendered washroom. Besides, I don't need "approval" from anyone who I don't immediately care about, because why would you matter to me? I have no clue who you are and, after this interaction, I will forget about you, as you likely will forget about me. I was just pointing out how, no matter what, someone will be "disapproving" of trans people merely existing, which you proved my point.

​​@@SappyDuderHey mate, I know us trans people pretty much have an instinctual defense response to perceived transphobia at this point, it's understandable to get confused and lash out, but I'm like 99% sure they were just agreeing with you on the single use gender neutral bathroom thing (as do I)

exactly. no one wants to do nature's call out in open public; it's not only unsanitary in a developed, civilized city, it's downright weird. we already have to put up with that from the doggos and the horsies since they don't know any better compared to houseapes, but we are willing to clean up after our animal companions.

Yeah this is normal parenting a lot of these people cannot seem to understand.

Was recently at a local zoo in the men's room with my son-in-law and his twin 3-year old girls. They are still learning to use the toilet. That sort of thing happens many times everyday.

My daughter is trans, she's trying SO hard just to get through life, she's a fantastic student at a top college in Washington D.C., she doesn't want to "groom" anyone, she wishes she was like everyone else, she doesn't wish her issue on anyone else, it's crazy. NOBODY wants to be trans but it happens. Nobody wants to be a diabetic or have a physical or mental illness but it's part of life and you try to live with your "affliction" as best you can. The trans people I know are just keeping their heads down and trying to get through life, it's very challenging for all of us.

Father of three adult daughters and now grandpa of two granddaughters (almost 3 and 5 months) here ... I know this story with first-hand experience. So far, so good in not having to deal with some overzealous lunatic in a public bathroom when i find myself with no choice. But I am well aware it is inevitable at some point.

Thank you kindly!

That was absolute comic gold.

It was the funniest part of the entire show really.

@@southpineshooligan I wouldn't go that far! Steve had way better material than my wisecracking ass.

@@LadyDoomsinger i wholeheartedly agree, but man having the person youre arguing be arrested because of a completely unrelated crime must feel pretty close to an objective win

The only thing proven here is that none of it was funny.

​@@LadyDoomsinger it differs though when you have an audience. In that sense you "win" them over.

Yup... with two daughters under 7 it's been an unremarkable task for on an almost weekly basis to support my daughters using public toilets... I have to say I prefer to use the disabled toilets where available ... Down to practicality of space... UK public toilets are not designed with space to sort out a wriggling toddler 😅

Then they can go to the family bathroom. We need 2 protect weman spaces.

@@chrisbowen7648 "...to support my daughters using public toilets" ...That's not a thing that needs supporting. They just...Walk in and do that.

@@nyanuwu4209It is though? Not every child is ready to use a public restroom alone, for various reasons.

@@danaparsons760 What about the elderly/disabled that have a spouse of the opposite sex? My mother needs her husbands help in the bathroom, and not all places have family rooms. Where should they go?

Yup, out of my 43 years of existence, I've seen people's gentiles three times. Twice when I was assigned "pecker checker" in the military for urinalysises where we were supposed to watch the stream exit the body and go into the cup (granted I didn't actually watch except for one person who would purposefully angle himself where I had to see it because he was a stickler for rules), and then at work once when a guy literally passed out at the urinal when I was in there and his pants were down. And neither time, was it something I really wanted to see. People seem to have this super weird idea of how public bathrooms work.

The fact that this is even a question just demonstrates how far we have fallen as a society. There are so many more important issues. Like genocide, starvation, child slavery... Etc. This is foolish & shameful.

@@TheSatanelWhataboutism at it finest. So we basically can’t talk about any issues because there a worse things out there

@@c.s2193 But it's not an issue. Trans people being trans isn't harming anyone. "it's being pushed in our faces!" No, you're actively seeking it out.

@@c.s2193 No, they're saying trans people in bathrooms is not really an issue in the first place (apart from bigots who are being incredibly weird about it) and that we should focus on real, demonstrable issues in the world that are causing actual, measurable harm. Maybe start by making a decent argument for why you think debating trans people in bathrooms is anywhere near as important as addressing genocide, starvation, or child slavery. When it comes to issues of politics that we're basing new laws on, "whataboutism" is a stupid thing to cry about. Yes, the resources of the government are limited, so YES, we should have priorities. We should prioritize the more important issues, not the trivial culture war garbage.

It's like when you ask people, "Should Arabic numerals be taught in schools?" and they say "No."

@@electronics-girl or when people say "We need to get rid of pronouns"

This. Most normal people understand... but these fundies and phobes are at a disadvantage bc all they think about all day every day is sex and/or genitals. The repressive nature of fundamentalism is crippling... and we're seeing the results of generations of concentrated hatred and how it can quite literally scramble your brain.

Yeah it’s not super rare, there’s no diaper changing stations in the men’s room

when its all divided it can be weird, when its all one, its rarely weird. also, if I ever become a father and have a daughter, i would never be able to take her to the womans restroom. just sharing.

@@EpicBunty Might not have a choice if she shits herself. No one would judge you for it either and I think that’s the main point

@@EpicBunty- Wait until you become a dad before you make pronouncements to what you will not do for your kids. You would brave a lions den, you certainly would take your darling toddler to the changing station regardless. I don’t see you trying to change a diaper by propping up your kid on the urinal or the floor.

I'm glad that he wasn't just trying to escalate, and he was the guy who, in the end, helped get the moron in jail.

Pin this

Thank you for the update.

​@@Furry-iousNewsAgreed. Needs to be pinned.

@stevehofstetter Please pin this!

Exactly - he even says some nonsense about men going into "the little girls" restroom. Where do they have those?

Well, a lot of what these guys accuse others actually is deflection of what is going on in their own mind. So the idea that people transition because of fucked up motives is a window to the mind of transphobes.

Loooool

Freudian slip. The same way that some homophobic so-called alpha males cant stop berating homosexuals. Its on their minds a lot... for some very creepy reasons.

​@@OldGreyMulletTest In his fantasies.

lol apparently it's a men's room thing, once my dad quickly ducked into the (single use) women's bathroom to wash his hands at a resturant. he came back to my mom and I exclaiming how clean it was!

As a trans woman, my most prevalent thought when using any public restroom is whether someone is going to bother me about it.

​@@grimpixelations6017you are literally the first person I have ever seen suggest women's bathrooms are cleaner

​@@KalinTheZola really? I'm trans, female to male, so I've used women's restrooms most of my life and for the past few years I've been using men's restrooms. Plus I've worked a few janitorial positions, including my current job, so I've had to clean both men's and women's restrooms- so from my own experience, the women's in the U.S. are always so much nicer than the men's. unless ur being sarcastic in which case- oop-

​@@grimpixelations6017 In my experience both are disgusting most of the time. I go to the gym and women's change room and it's a roulette if there's even one relatively clean toilet to sit on. No seat covers either. You couldn't pay me to use the public showers. Wet seats are terrifying. You sit to pee, how do you piss on the seat!?

eyyyy T1J what’s up?! Totally agree! Have a great day/night 😄

Depends, sometimes it's the comedian attacking anyone who talks during the performance which is cringe, sometimes it's an actual asshole like this in the audience

I was thinking that it looked more like either the Jontron "Nope nope nope!" gif or the "Fuck this shit i'm out" audio with how her hands were up and she was scampering away with leftovers. Like a 'grab the breadsticks and run from this axe murderer' scamper

want the survival suppleness of the bumble date, that's some super power right there. She said not today satan.

i've heard of Bumble being a rather sh1tty app, but didn't expect this to be a thing as well...

In fairness, it was a first date. She heard that nonsense begin and was smart enough to head for the exit immediately. Pretty sure there won’t be a second date!

"She choose...POORLY." That's what she gets for going out with Indiana Douche. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

She's a smart gal

Their ability to compartmentalize contradictory information is clinically fascinating. Kind of makes me wish I’d gone into psychology.

a quick look at statista gives 10% of more child abuse (general) than men, he made it seem it was at least 3 to 1. And wonder how it would be in an approximate of abuse per time of interaction with men being less frequently in a child's life.

All the while knowing he had cocaine on him.

They reminded me a lot of cops here in the Nordic. Patient, tries to talk to people first and gives an easy way out if there is one.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were apologizing while they were putting handcuffs on him

@@bryanrhodes369funny!!!

It's a lot more widespread than Canada. In democracies, the aggressiveness of US police is the exception, not the norm.

No, you're absolutely right. If something simple like children using the restroom or a parent changing their childs diaper and this person's immediate thought is "This is sexual!" that person has ABSOLUTELY got a screw lose

Every accusation is a confession with people like him..

We shouldn’t separate intimate spaces so good guys can protect women and girls in restrooms and changing rooms and locker rooms and prisons from bad guys. If I’m in a restroom alone and a man walks in I feel safe that he’ll protect me if a bad man walks in.

Thats actually so sweet

Looks like one of them literally showed up here. Fact of the matter is these people don't arrive to their beliefs through rational process, they're fundamentalally irrational. And because they have massive egos, any challenge to the idea that they're somehow these mega brain paragons of rational thought is a direct attack on their self image, and when you're as fragile and insecure as they are, well this happens.

Yes! What's funny is how many hold beliefs just to annoy people they disagree with. Its really odd

Yes! What's funny is how many hold beliefs just to annoy people they disagree with. Its really odd

A lot of the time it's projection because that's exactly what they're doing. It's also partially because many of these people are motivated by religious belief, which instills believers with unearned confidence about the very nature of the universe and leads them to believe they have the unambiguous truth about the world no matter what you say or show them to the contrary. Otherwise, I'd guess that they're simply so small-minded that they can't even conceive of a genuine belief or view that doesn't agree with them.

Thank you kindly. I just couldn't take it anymore!

@@readyforlol how does someone having a concern with potential predators using "trans" as a guise to gain access to private places normally not permitted to be in logically equate to that person is to be feared of being around children or adults... while being in a room full of people. make it make sense.

​@@wretchedrabbitI'd try to make it make sense for you. I genuinely would. You just lack the capability to comprehend basic logic. Tell it to the bathroom bouncer XD

​@JG_Wentworth Soooooo, you have no counterpoint then? Because he is correct that OP's claim is irrational. While I believe a lack of compassion for an innocent person's basic functions due to fear is an issue of itself, not all people (clearly) have the ability to think more critically. Treating an issue with concern for the worst case scenario provides prevention. Treating a very serious, viable possibility with lackadaisical skepticism is ridiculously irresponsible, and the worst part is you quite literally won't take the time to answer his very valid question. So it's probably easy to assume people like you won't have much of value to offer for the innocent people in the Trans community If the said scenario happens and the "I told you so" starts to form.

Having said that, if your date gets up and leaves, please don't follow them

Until that guy came back in who had talked to him, we had no idea he was still outside waiting. He was still there when the show let out. I stuck around in case he got extra stupid, but then someone said the cops were on their way. And I decided that I didn't want to be hanging out when they got here.

Oh, shit, I didn't know he had taken a swing at someone. That must have happened before we got out. When I got out, the ladies were being loud with him and I was worried for them. Then I heard the cops were on their way, and I did like "the tatted guy" (I'm a different "tatted guy"!) and left a cloud of dust behind me!

This video hit different for me too. I went to a clinic today. The nurse said the doctor wanted to know why I'm taking hormones. I said "gender transition". She asked what gender I identify as. I said "woman and thank you". Immediately the nurse said "no problem sir". The doctor called me sir. So did the person getting my blood sample, and the person scheduling a followup. I got misgendered by 100% of the clinic staff. So when I watched this video it was strange to me. I'm just glad to know that there's some people out there smart enough to think beyond a 3rd grade subject overview

@@Rising_Pho3nix_23 you really got triggered because people misgendered you when you most definitely still look like a male?

Yep. Anti-trans laws are misogynistic too.

@jeremiell you just said "Can't see past simple gender performance". Lets enhance that last part "PERFORMANCE". Its all a joke. Its an act, a performance. Men are men and women are women. Its how you were born. You may feel a certain way differently but at the end of the day, its all about your chromosomes. Nothing, and absolutely nothing, can change that. No surgery can change it, no wishing upon a star... Literally zero possibility. If you are an adult age and you want to claim you are a Pink Tiger Striped Norwegian Hippopotamus... Got for it. But stop throwing it in our face and telling us we have to accept what you want to shove down our throat when no one can speak common sense to you. Most of us Americans dont give 2 shits about all the drama. It changes when you try to force it upon us.

So... blaming everyone else for your OWN choices ??? Typical... Instead of forcing your self-identity on everyone, maybe you should just live your lives, as you claim you want, and stop demanding that we affirm and validate your false perceptions all the time. We just want to live our lives too, not having to deal with your flag everywhere all the time, and not having to wonder what our kids are being indoctrined with in their schools... Your own life choices, are none of our concerns.

Same old lame rhetoric... "Fear mongering". Disgusting... When NONE of you will be attacked, lose jobs or have your social media cancelled simply for misgendering someone... You know NOTHING about the fear of knowing that the very school we are sending our kids to, will most likely be INDOCTRINATING them into your cult... The only fear you should be concerned about is the fear of having someone telling you "NO"... The hypocrisy...

@@jocec3283wut? Bruh, are you ok??? Karen’s flipping out over another woman with short hair triggered you to post an incoherent rant? Re-evaluate your life

What I don't understand is why people seem to have a problem with trans people "possibly" doing this stuff, but never even talk about Catholics, Mormons or even just regular families. I watch a lot of interrogations on RU-vid and there's so many cases of cis men doing things to their daughters. Does this get talked about? No. Why? Hell if I know. The world is changing. People who grow up in violent families never learn coping mechanisms, so when things change, they become violent. They learned at an early age to use violence to get what they want, so their prefrontal cortex never has a chance to develop. They are, at a neurological level, childish. And frankly, I'd rather have someone who can think about things running things and not someone who hasn't learned self control and introspection. This video shows a symptom of a bigger problem. People are afraid of what they don't know. Which is fine. That's how we survived the Savanna and kept from getting eaten by tigers. But they make a choice to live in fear and respond with violence. They don't seek understanding or truth. Only rage, power and violence. If you don't care about truth, I really have no interest in what you have to say about anything. You tell me your name, how do I know that's the truth? Ya know? People like this guy don't get to this point overnight. It will be a long time before he grows up. I just hope some day he can look at this night as a learning experience. He will probably be in and out of prison and a judge will make him take anger management classes and get sober. He will probably piss off the wrong person and get beaten within an inch of his life. And when his aggression alienates everyone in his life and he's faced with homelessness, he will evaluate what got him to that point. He will numb his pain with drugs and spend many years in prison. It will probably take 10-30 years before he figures this stuff out and changes. I make these predictions because I've seen it happen with an old neighbor.

wait wait wait if their argument to NOT wear masks is 'my body my choice' why cant it be my choice also to WEAR a mask??? wtf??? EEEEWWWW theyre trying to claim its a safety issue to identify criminals!!! leave it to republicans to fearmonger and concern troll

@@wretchedrabbit learn how to operate google its called the "unmasking mobs and criminals" bill and republicans claim its to prevent people who protest from concealing their identity but we know thats just a made up reason cause they cant justify banning masks out of pure spite

@@KantiKane fearmongering requires it to be false information... ever since masks were a must in most places criminals have been using the opportunity to commit more crime. with everyone required to wear masks you arent looked at immediately as a threat when walking in with your face covered. how is that fearmongering? you arent really going to sit there and act like criminals do not use or abuse anything they possibly can to commit their crimes are you? i would really hope people arent that willfully ignorant and blind to these things... and "my body my choice" was never an argument for masks... it was for the vaccine that isnt a vaccine. so you dont think that people being able to hide their identity is a safety concern for the public or commercial business? please explain how hiding ones face is not a safety risk... we have to be able to identify criminals dont we? we arent allowed to use skin color you all get offended...

@@wretchedrabbitYour logic is bad. If someone is going to do something so bad to the point where they will cover their face to conceal their identity. A law isn’t going to stop them. They wont see the law and go “welp guess I cant do that” because they also know they cant commit the crime alongside it but are doing it anyway. Not every precaution is sound. It’s valid, but not sound. It’s like plugging every faucet because there might be lead in the tap water. We don’t know, and there likely isnt lead, but lead is bad so now we just.. dont have water anymore because of the precaution. See how annoying it gets when society impliments too much caution. You shouldnt be cautious of anyone wearing a mask, because a mask isnt a crime. A crime is a crime. And no amount of penalty would ever stop people from using masks. I’d even argue that you stopping identity concealment actively threatens the freedom of americans. I dont really think that, but a fuck ton of society does. The more unnecessary precautions, the more society is limited to it’s past.

And the frustrating thing about that, as Steve says, is that Steve was doing that for the guy's own sake. He wanted to have a back-and-forth that would ultimately humanize the guy (albeit through toying with him a bit, as it was a comedy show, after all), but the guy chose to be combative and displayed zero sense of humor, and ultimately brought himself down.

"Dont say R Kelly, Dont say R Kelly."

@@Tony36271 "R&B" OH GOD IT'S R KELLY!!!

How about this, I break a bottle and storm the stage. He move on then?

@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoatWTF? Yes… Because the cops will arrest you, as with this POS who started sh!t with someone who roasts hecklers for a living & then got all snowflakey. OP was saying hecklers like this feel entitled to steal the focus of the show, then have the nerve to ask the comedian to “move on” when things get too hot, as if the comedian started it. Learn impulse control, or don’t go out in public, jeez.

I honestly don't know if I could have handled being in the show with him doing all that. Still working up the courage to live my life. I hope he didn't ruin it for you and you actually had a good time.

❤

I think i see you both in the video!

@@Rising_Pho3nix_23 I'm the girlfriend she mentioned. Honestly I was in such a horrible headspace during this whole ordeal, but we both finished the night out with laughter, which only speaks to how much Steve is a master of his craft.

for real, totally get the raw, jarred feeling, @@AzaleaSprouts. That shit has just made me feel all nerves, hyper vigilant... a traumatic stress response. It sucks to have happen. I live in Portland, so like Vancouver (I miss the Salish sea, I'm originally from Bellingham), it's quite progressive. So hearing the transphobia on the news or something is a slow burn, like the thousand cuts analogy. When it's violent in my face and even vicinity, it snaps me to a warped sense of reality that I'm in a little danger to some degree when I'm in public, and it sucks to feel this way in the back of my brain. hope it didn't follow y'all; also glad y'all had each other and you got to laugh some of it off. 🏳‍⚧💜🏳‍⚧

they assume rapists (read, men) are going to self identify as women, and commit to the gender performance JUST to sneak into the bathroom JUST to assault somebody and honestly, my question to those people is why? What's seriously stopping rapists from just walking into a bathroom and assaulting somebody, or more than likely, stalking said person and following them to to the bathroom. BECAUSE THAT ALREADY HAPPENS, THEY DONT NEED QUEER PRETEXT TO SNEAK IN, THEY JUST WALK IN ANYWAYS TO ATTACK PEOPLE transphobes talk about how trans people are disconnected from reality, ironic then that theyre so disconnected that they dont understand how actual abusers work

what got me was one guy yelling "Thank you, God! Thank you!" i'm atheist, but even i would praise god for that XD

The part that got me was the dude who yelled “Give it a minute,” I wonder where he is now, lol

​@@JeremytheartistmannequinHe's in this comment section.

Thank you for sharing your story and lending your voice to the ethical side of this debate. I’ve worked in child protection for 7 years, and domestic and family violence for going on 3 years. I’ve spoken with many children who have been sexually abused, and many women who were sexually abused as children. Not one of them has identified their abuser as a trans person.

I also was molested by my father until about the age of 12. I also know of many other women who were also molested by their own fathers. It's not trans people I'm afraid of.

I'm so sorry for those of you who were child victims, and what you went through. As a former child victim myself, its been over 30 years ago, but I've never fully healed. I've accepted that though, and it's helped me to move forward in life. I wish you all the best in health and happiness in life. Humor is medicine for the soul, and that's why I really appreciate Steve and other comedians

​@@Elmo18782And the only sources stating about any "drag party" is tabloid websites, a RU-vidr who probably was looking for click-bait, and a bunch of redditers who are no doubt haters and don't list any real resources, just as you didn't list any sources and expect people to find what you want them to find and not the actual story. It's these 6 other men who probably are the reason the transgender person is dead. There's not much on this, and it'd probably be best to wait until it goes to trial before anything else will be shown of it. (and don't bother replying unless you have a reparable source, I won't respond.)

This is what I tell people who hate trans/gay people. When did a trans/gay person ever hurt you or anyone you knew besides hurting your feelings just for being trans/gay?

Yes very much so

Correct.

YUUUUUUUP!

so for your comment to be an insult to him,, you are implying that being an alphabet person is bad

@@Bulldog23636 guide us through your thought process why that would be so

They actually kinda are afraid of trans people, just not in the same way as an actual psychological phobia. It's called transphobia because people like the guy in the video get roped into all the fear mongering saying that trans people are sexual predators, degenerates, worshippers of satan, and that they want to transify your kids. All that is to paint this picture of trans people as some kind of threat to society. This scary boogieman who is somehow weak and strong at the same time. It's the exact same thing that happened to gay people, black people, indigenous people, jews, and muslims (especially after 9/11)

People seem to forget that 'phobia' isn't explicitly fear, it's 'aversion to.' Which includes fear, yes, but also applies to revulsion, hate, disgust, etc. Any strong negative reaction. "hydrophobic" materials aren't afraid of water- they have a strong aversion / resistance to it.

@@LadyNightscaleI think there’s also the fact that they do seem to actively fear us too, even if they don’t think they do

@@Friendlybot9000 I think they fear what we represent, which is that the cisheteronormative social structure is not 100% necessary; thus meaning traditional gender dynamics aren't either.

​@@LadyNightscaleYou're spot on! Not only that, but these people make what's between their legs dictate their whole ass personality. Seeing people not base their entire existence off the genitals they were born with probably feels threatening cause what if one day they're expected to find an actual personality too?

And its nice when people are willing to have the conversation and listen, and learn.

@@ReiperX it is. It's just good to remember that even conversations require consent. Constantly having to defend yourself is tiring

@@atomiccrouton absolutely. Which is why the whole "well everyone deserves to express their opinion" crowd annoy me. Sorry, Nazis, bigots, they tend to not be worth actually spending time on. Ignorant people, at least they can often be helped, but like you said, not a conversation you can force because it can be so tiring for people like yourself who just want the right to exist.

These people have such bumper sticker minds. If it’s over three words long (“TRANS PEOPLE BAAAAD”) they lose their attention. Meanwhile….Russell Brand….Matt Gaetz….Jim Jordan….Trump…literally every major religious organization in fucking existence….

Also when approached with this argument, it's important to bring up that most crimes against children are perpetrated by adults they know, so family members and close family friends. So it's just a strawman through and through.

I woulda been shaking with adrenaline I have no issue putting my trans ass on the line to save my fellow comrades

Yup. The (made-up) cis people who pretend to be trans are not actually trans. Another bit of irony is that the people who are actually making bathrooms unsafe are the people who are trying to police who goes in there so as to keep out certain individuals. All trans people want is to take a piss in peace and safety.

Yeah, but it was cocaine-assisted. If he did it natty, I would respect it more. Juicing the aggression is cheating by Olympic standards.

Yeah, we can’t do that here because hurr durr reasons and shit.

I genuinely didn't realize there were areas with so few gender neutral bathrooms. Are there areas where they are basically nonexistent?

25:02 I freaking knew it!

misogyny, transphobia, and stereotyping in one sentense

physical abuse and neglect are not the same as sexusl stuff. Nice try with that bs. Cant square twisted info. And when did people say thats the only reason? If we need a 3rd bathroom for the confused people, so be it. But leave us regular people out of it. We are fine with a girls room and a boys room. Look at your birth certificate if you need help. 👍🇺🇸

@@c7adventures376 Yeah, when the pitchforks start rising and the hive-mind is triggered, most vehement supporters don't feel any need to have truly-valid points. One can walk in to such a group and saysomething akin to , "YEAH! Jupiter aligns with Mars and these old men with sexual issues need to be let into these restrooms!" and the mob pat you on the back and agree... (only minor hyperbole). When in groups, each side, the left AND the right, are so often just utterly mob-minded and won't even entertain the possibility that there even might be any part of another perspective that has validity. Any genuine analysis is interrupted by insults (from the one who has the weaker position) and things devolve into a immature low iq insult-fest. For instance, I imagine this guy in the audience was essentially saying that: IF A FATHER IS ACCOMPANYING HIS YOUNG DAUGHTER IN A MEN'S ROOM, HE CAN PROTECT HER. But if we have adult men going into private rooms with LONE young females, it may have the potential to produce not-so-positive results... even if it is something as minor as lewd exposure. But the mob superimposes some nonsensical overgeneralized narrative in an effort to illustrate a simplistic black-and-white, good-vs-bad picture for the idiots to emotionally rally behind. edit * I'm not saying I agree or disagree with anyone's perspective. But I don't like when individuals are belittled.

@@c7adventures376 i mean if youre amerisexual then thats fine, just dont bat an eye for us existing

​@@c7adventures376what's REALLY fckd up is that they're NOT putting the gender on birth certificates anymore. Something about the child being too young to decide if they identify with what gender they're born. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I am just waiting for the day when calling a born male playing dress up "sir" gets you thrown in jail for commiting a hate crime. This country has gone to hell in a hand basket...a bedazzled hand basket. 😂

That sounds like a perfect learning moment for him. Very nice response.

That's so impressive! Can be so hard to be charitable in a moment when someone is cluelessly doing something that can be hurtful and alienating... But thanks to you, this individual's mind has had an epiphany - a memorable and profound one. And next time someone around him repeats one of these transphobic tropes - HE will be the one to speak up! This is how minds change - one little moment at a time. We never know how many minds might be touched by that one moment you created

Good reply. Made your point without being sanctimonious unlike all these raging self victimizing narcissists you see online

​@@LaVerdad65 Well, now **you're** being the asshole.

​@@LaVerdad65 You got a little chip on your shoulder, mate.

And yet Steve was the one who pushed the issue, just because the guy cheered at something.

​@@berenonehand Thats his job you mentally ill toad

@@berenonehand The guy started it. Steve is a comedian. His job entails dealing with hecklers. When those hecklers are absolute morons and jerks, all the more so. It is not Steve's fault that the heckler was too drunk to formulate a sentence and too bigoted to have anything of value to say anyway.

​@@berenonehandSteve's the performer. He can do his set how he likes. He chose to roast the heckler. What's wrong with that?

@@StormTheSquid "The guy started it" - by cheering at something? GTFOH.

@@marshy9880 "we"? Speak for yourself. Opinions that might seem stupid to u might seem perfectly normal for others. I dont judge that much as you are implying "we" should. If you dont agree, move on.

@@PsychoDude yeah, sure, you "don't judge" lol

They 100% only watched up to where the guy got kicked out, if they even watched it at all. Those types of people just like jumping an the hate wagon and wanted their opportunity to share their bad opinions and defend an actual criminal, so nothing new for them

That's exactly what pedos say.

And as a trans woman who came out as a teen be sure they don't care about sexually harassing us, not matter the age

Congrats on using groomers' favorite gaslighting technique, trying to shame people into not enforcing appropriate boundaries between their children and unvetted adults. Now if I believed in guilt-by-association the way you do, I would say that that means you're a groomer yourself, because you happen to be making the same argument and taking the same position as a groomer. See how that works?

​@@danavidal8774sorry about your mental illness. I hope you deal with it better than most of the internet.
