A Transgender Question

[_subgenius]

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

pretty sure you're applying this incorrectly (shocking, i know)

[_subgenius]

Amore, how is 'just me's reference to your acquiescence to herd mentality any greater an offense than your claim that she is doing the same?

I can't wait for the answer.

Amore, please point out the logical fallacies I have made in this thread. Please also list the facts that I am ignoring in order to hold on to my cherished herd beliefs of equality and human decency.

oh, this is easy
1. the lack of using logic could easily be interpreted as a fallacy.

2. viewtopic.php?p=973197#p973197 in this post you try to equate the cost of wheelchair ramps (accessibility) to the cost of accommodating transgendered persons - this type of comparison often uses racism as a false analogy. Nevertheless, the fallacies are numerous:

That's great, Subby. You should forward this to the KKK. They'll make you an honorary member if you aren't one already.

I'll go get a coffee while you prepare an answer to the original question.

This is easy. Do it and prove me wrong.

You could deliver the coup de grâce simply by pointing out that your fallacy is bigger.

I did not use the bandwagon fallacy nor the composition fallacy. I was pointing out that we have accommodation laws that do place a burden on business owners already. We, as a society, have decided that it is reasonable to place a burden on business owners to accommodate certain groups of people. Just because YOU think it is irrational and unreasonable doesn't make it so.

Except that I didn't misuse statistics. People are claiming that transgender people are making bathrooms unsafe. This is false. There is no evidence to support this. There is, however, ample evidence that using public restrooms is dangerous for trans people.

Uh, that wasn't a fallacy. That was a conversation between Jersey Girl and I.

Actually, I was just giving Amore a taste of her own medicine. I suppose you also dislike it when she accuses everyone here of having a herd mentality. She seems to be the only one free of such a burden.

It's ironic that someone who obsesses over other people jumping on bandwagons has hitched herself so steadfastly to such a hateful one.

so, how is this for a beginning list?

Not very good. You'll have to do better than that.

right, and thus you made a bandwagon fallacy, thanks for clarifying. Yes, society does accommodate but as i original noted, you did not and have yet to provide a reasonable argument/justification why such an accommodation should be made for transgendered people. See, the "bandwagon" fallacy is when you justify something by the merit of its associated idea being already "popular"....you have not provided any merit.
and you are correct, just because i think so doesn't make it so, but in this case, what i think it is and what it actually is are aligned. But your point is relevant, just because someone thinks (identifies) that they are handicapped does not mean that they are handicapped.

The claim about bathroom safety is irrelevant, you specifically tried to justify the opposite claim by stating that "other things" are more dangerous.

correct, but you specifically asked - "please point out the logical fallacies I have made in this thread" - and in that conversation, you made that fallacy.

"giving a taste of her own medicine" is still a fallacy committed, and as requested it was noted to you. Just because she committed the same fallacy does not mean that you did not.

It's ironic that someone who obsesses over other people jumping on bandwagons has hitched herself so steadfastly to such a hateful one.
i think you mean hypocritical, but its irrelevant either way and simply reinforces that your argument relies on personal criticisms as opposed to valid points

so, how is this for a beginning list?

Not very good. You'll have to do better than that.
well, one has to know their audience
