We talk a lot about transgenderism but what is often overlooked is transcauliflowerism. I do not want men in my bathroom and I also do not want cauliflower as my potatoes or rice

Potatoes and rice are still staples. Cauliflower- and broccoli-based versions of things which are more commonly made with potatoes are niche products which cost a bit more anyway. “Riced cauliflower” is not actually a rice substitute (though maybe it could be used as one in some unusual cases) but is a meant for recipes which calls for finely chopped cauliflower so you don’t need to do the work of chopping it yourself. (To “rice” means to chop or grate something down to roughly rice-grain size. This is hardly a new use of the word, it dates from 1658.) For that matter cauliflower pizza crusts are an alternative to gluten-free crusts for people who don’t like the usual gluten-free products (or just can’t have those either).
If your problem is that you’re offended by them existing in the stores you shop at, tough luck. Enough people want them, so stores are going to sell them. For that matter, the majority are fine with trans women using women’s rest rooms, so tough luck with that as well.
I was eating chicken one time and the host revealed, in mid-bite, that it was rattlesnake. Changed the flavor right then and there. All in my head, of course, but still ruined the meal.
But that’s what my cousin did. Not the snake’s innermost feelings of being a chicken. Of wanting to be treated like a chicken. Of wanting cooks and diners to accept its true, inner nature of chickenness.
... because food prepared with different ingredients is somehow comparable to human gender and sexual discussion?
Especially foods that say in big bold letters on the box stuff like "cauliflower pasta" or "cauliflower crust" or "cauliflower breading." Just like how not-meat looking meats are labeled as such.
I’ve had synthetic minced beef: Soya. It’s hard to tell the difference.
You’ve probably met trans people and didn’t know they were, A Lie .
You’re comparing food items - something that has no consciousness and exists to be consumed - with human beings, which do, and don’t. This is a retelling of the “let’s compare women to cars / a stamp / a rose / whatever else is the object of the week” in a slightly different form. By doing that, you’re telling on yourself. Transfolk get objectified enough, so let’s not add to that particular burden, shall we? I would say stay in your lane, but it sounds like it’s more appropriate to say stay in your bathroom stall. You’ll be fine.
Although I will say this, @Zinnia - I do actually use cauliflower rice as a rice substitute! My partner keeps to a keto diet and I eat low carb. It’s pretty good actually; it holds a lot of oil (so good for keto) and I’ve figured out how to make it taste similar to fries.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
