At least /pol/ has an answer, /b/ would just call it gay.

All of this will be irrelevant in 30 years. No, not because it will be normal, but because it'll be obsolete. I can't wait to be a robot

Being female is not an easy game mode...
KnightThatDrinksTea
Thats a new strategy for the game: "Know your enemy, be your enemy". In order to understand a female, you need to be a female.
dangerousDoc
Because they are TransTrenders
jamesadamslh
We want easier access to our emotions.
channelranger
Since when would anyone choose to be trans to make their life *easier*? This is the kind of shit whiny neckbeards bitch about.

You don't pay insurance if you don't have a car
Nondino
Non-owners polices are recommended though.

Actually, being a transwoman is playing life on nightmare hard mode. Especially if you're not passable as a woman
Great comment
BatsuitsNipples
confirm: family life, cost of living, employment, safety, depression, healthcare, regulations, etc... I wouldn't wish this on my enemies
WolfOfMay
People who constantly check whether you are mentally stable. Denying basic human rights in most parts of the world
rpger9756
I'd argue living Trans is harder than being straight.
apercent
Twenty times harder... The amount of pressure some people put on you for being trans
SassyPiplup
It's easy if you're really good at it and people can't tell if you are trans.
Either learn how to contour, or be rich.
Quite a bit. Lots of extra bullshit to deal with by being trans pretty much no matter where you live.
BurntToastGaveMeCancer
No straight person has ever gotten an award for being straight. Bruce Jenner got an award for being trans.
IFuckingLoveGoldenRetrievers
For courage to transition in the public eye

Caitlyn Jenner also has a shit ton of cash. Her (then his) life was almost always easier than the average person's.

IthinkImightknow
I think he still has his wang, just dresses like a chick and identify as one
CarrowM
Which means he is still a man, he just had his man card permanently revoked
The award wasn't for simply life. It was for Standing up for what's right. Sort of like if we gave Rosa Parks an award.
Ieatlittlebabiesicecream
Jenner should be in jail for manslaughter.
Not because sitting down in the whites only spot was hard, but because it needed to be done
Varroth
The fuck? Standing up for whats right? She doesnt even fking support gay marriage.
What's right for trans people. But agreed she is still proving herself to be a horrible person. But horrible people can do good things too.
Why?
He's a douchebag that's why
TransistorRadio
Definitely. Being trans is difficult, but publicly transitioning is the most difficult thing I've ever done. Most people don't realize that.

Why don't robots have brothers? Because they have trans-sisters.
Dispari
People who think it's a choice don't stop to think that nobody would willingly choose it.
soulscythe
I'm just curious, could you tell me how living trans is more difficult? I understand some initial difficulty during the transition, but (1)
but after that, is it only harder because of how one would be viewed? Or is there some other inherent difficulty added to daily life? (2)
JorgenVonStranglesThrobbingErection
You spend the majority of your early life feeling wrong in a way that you can't place.
I don't expect any particularly personal info obviously, just a simple explanation. I just don't have the perspective to answer this myself.
It's mostly society and the way we're treated by people. Being called "faggot" by strangers the minute we open our mouths and such (1/?)
Leax256
I tell you...fucking car insurance! I'm 23, no accidents/tickets and would have to pay 270/month if on my own. Meanwhile my 25 yr old sister
8hourgamer
When I was 24 the Subaru WRX first came to usa/canada, my insurance rates were $450 a month, I had one ticket on my file but no accidents.
Gorzine
Statistics don't lie... On a large scale.
BoopBoopBeepBoop
Sure, but when someone uses workplace death and crime statistics everyone loses their minds.
realwomenfightnaked
my insurance is $50 im a 25yr old female no accidents
HornyUn1corn
I'm 24, no accidents/tickets and I pay 325 a month. :/
MizzFortune
I'm a 23 year old female with never even been pulled over and mine is $175 a month :/

Only two years left. 25 is magic.

Wasindear
Move to the UK, they can't charge different premiums for need and women here, annoys me though since lawmakers clearly don't understand...
... how insurance works
CommanderMlander
You need to find a different insurance co then man cause your getting jewed. I pay 140 a month for a 2017 Camaro and I'm 23.
dohcohv
That may be normal if he lives in a no-fault state. They are crazy expensive.
DoWnVoTeToThEkNeE
It's age. At 25 insurance drops.
QuentinBlackk
Who do you have? Fucking fries thats a steal
AnusSlicer69
Ayyyyyy Miata buddies!
Once you turn 25 your rates should improve. Find an independent agent so they have multiple companies to look at!
Or I could "be responsible" and get married
Radioactivelaughs
*Ahem* 22, male, "sport" car (2003 Monte Carlo ss, some power) I pay $238 per 6 months. If any parents or you are military, get USAA...
Parents have to have USAA for the kid to use it in most states.
That's the way it works. Totally worth it though.
Bombpier
We have usaa, their rates are shit compared to progressive
Prob cheap cause the car is 14 years old. in 1999 my 67 mustang was $85/month
Maybe. I had a 2011 Ford Focus on there too, that was $227 for 6 months. My Monte has always been that cheap, had it more than 6 years now
Raspootin
Your rates should drop at 25 if you have a clean record
idonthaveanaccentyouhaveanaccent
26 with a 2016 Subaru Forester and a 2015 fiat 500. $140/month for full coverage + extras on both for myself and my wife through geico.
It's the wife bit that is saving you funds. when i was 26 i was single with a WRX $220/month
She was still on her parents for a while after we got married. Single vehicle with just myself was ~$80 a month. Added the second vehicle 1/
And her and it went up the other $60.
2 has a hit and run on her record as well as a few tickets, <$100
Cyandvai
shit, I have a '14 Cherokee and '07 Toyota van and I pay like $175 a month for both. USAA + I'm married and 37 so, there's that.
nak3673
My insurance guy told me it's because young men on average spend more time driving than their female counterparts. Considered higher risk.
Enigmastick
Maybe so, but that is what car is made for. And at least in my country it is the middle aged people that do most accidents anyway.
Just what I was told. More time behind the wheel they consider higher chance of getting into an accident.
imgonnajackofftoyourselfiesandtheresnothingyoucandoaboutit
What fucking car do you have?
'04 Toyota Celica 140k miles. Hers is a '99 Mazda something with 300k+ miles.
Vesmic
Toyota Celica is more sporty, you are young so they have to generalize you with every other kid and thinking you are going to hot rod it.
mineovermatter
Yep.
nynros
Not irrelevant! My car (Crown Victoria) is $133 a month but a mustang is $270 for me.
Mortalnick
Sorry to burst your bubble. Got a Jeep renegade and pay $53/month :D
Coko4
It would only be irrelevant if your sister also had the exact same model with same mileage/age/condition
I'm a 21y/o male and mine is $85.00 per month. Also, the make, model, and year of your car are absolutely relevant to your insurance rates
It *can* but usually FAR FAR less than being male. Like it usually accounts for maybe 10%
ArtsyNipples
This man knows what up
ShrugItOff
2. She has 3 tickets and I have none, I'm also 3 years older (25/22).
irrationalfears
You are correct. Other factors play a part too.
1. Yea, my sister gets lower rates than I do though ($1200/yr for me, $800yr for her. I have an 08 focus and she has a 2010 honda 4x4.
thebemusedhaggis
This is illegal in the UK now (the gender bit, not the age one). Yay for gender equality!
itsimpossibletofindausernamethatisnttaken
It's a bit of a weird issue. On one hand, yay equality. On the other hand, there are strong statistics behind the practice.
JohnnyTitelips
Eh. I'm a guy, and I think that if the statistics back up the practice (not saying that they do) it should be legal. There are similar (1/2)
situations for girls, too.
I thought there were no differences in genders. :^)
