According to Dan McClellan, the cross in the cross-of-gold format is really a very recent pop-Christian symbol (that is, used by people other than Catholic monastics). It only got big in the 18th, 19th centuries

So the folk who want a gold T to celebrate their trans-ness might have a strong authority to repurpose it...

well, until it becomes the swastika of the white Christian nationalist movement and designated as a hate symbol.

I'm surprised that squishier more red-letter based Christian faiths don't re-adopt the intersecting-circles fish, which is a much older Christian symbol than the cross.

The kkk did that a long time ago with their cross burnings

[–] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 hours ago

I already see it as a hate symbol. People that wear it tell me I'm going to suffer for eternity unless I listen to them and this god fellow.

If I walked around and told people to listen to me or I'd lock them in my basement and light them afire I'd be arrested.

Where do I get one of those T necklaces?

A cross?

Across from where?

[–] ApeNo1@lemmy.world 41 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is that why it is called cross-dressing?

I mean Jesus was born without a bio dad so he wouldn’t have a Y-chromosome and he still identified as a man so yeah Jesus was transgender deal with it haters

Some images of Jesus show him with a cut on his chest. Clearly that is the scar from his top surgery.

Bruh I think that's Sagat from Street Fighter II...

Wait.. I thought the 'holy ghost' was the god sperm that impregnated Mary...

The Holy Ghost watched. That's why the Vatican is the Holy See

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago

This necklace is a warning sign that says "Do not have sex with this person."

[–] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago

I don't know how it is now, but when I was a teen, Catholic girls were freaky-deaky DTF. They all wore crosses and easy access skirts.

Those were good times.

Only as long as one DNS enactor doesn't overtake the other. Otherwise your gay might crash.

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oh I so hope this catches on. I’ve encountered a few people that would absolutely be furious about that.

[–] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago

I'm doing my part. I think it's hilarious.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It would suck to be confused for a christian, though ...

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago

Guess I should have been more clear. I hope more people say that the cross is actually a T that represents transgender and not that I hope actual trans people would start wearing crosses.

Mock the cults pushing their agenda of hatred.

Please stay safe out there trans friends! Don’t make yourself a target with easily identifying symbols if you can.

[–] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

I doubt it. Most trans people I meet are really nice, open, inviting people.
