I couldnt help noticing that society is slowly going back to oppressing transgender individuals.

I consider oppression of any kind to be bad not just for an individual, but for society as a whole.

Building society on hate should never be anyone's goal, as societies built on hate cannot last.

Transgender individuals have right to happiness. Preventing their happiness wont increase your happiness, but it will increase their pain.

Our society, in which just few decades ago your parents would kick you out of house if you told them you were gay and you would be homeless, today oppresses individuals who just want to be what they are.

Some people simply cannot accept that a person can want to be something more than what was given to that person at birth.

It costs you nothing to simply admit that a person can be what that person wants to be.

To place people in roles, against their will, is the same as enslaving them. Those roles, that people talk about, came from oppressive societies that existed in history. Those roles belong in history, not in present.

You wouldnt force someone to get married. You wouldnt force someone to have kids. Yet you want to force someone to be something simply because it suits your view.

However, we do not get to impose our views on others, as that is oppression.

If you want to be called the way you like to be called, why call others the way they dont want to be called?

If you want to be called a man, why call other person a man if that person wants to be called a woman?

It costs you nothing to call people the way they want to be called.

If you want to do that which makes you happy, why prevent others from doing the same?

After all, the standard is only just if it is universal.

If you dont want to feel pain, then you should also not want for others to be in pain.

Even if their pain is not your pain, it still follows that pain is bad irrelevant of who feels it.

If you desire freedom, then desire freedom for all. Desiring freedom only for yourself is both unjust and greedy.

Transgender persons cannot be denied of right to do what they want with their bodies.

If we do not own our body, then what do we own? Nothing. 

If someone else gets to decide what we do with our bodies, then that person owns our bodies. If someone else owns our bodies, that is slavery.

You have nothing to lose by respecting others.

So why not do it?

Possible reasons in some contexts:

They want your money/time/labor/ideas to be happy.
They want you to compromise on your beliefs to be happy.
They want you to go out of your way to pander and pamper them to be happy.

For instance, if I identify as a cripple who is deathly afraid of any machinery designed to help cripples and then call it a phobia if nobody caries me around on a dias.

Don't confuse "fair play for transgenders" with the iron fist of the federal government.  The current  trend is to extend extraordinary  powers to a small minority at the expense of the common man ( or common woman ).   Just look about.

lol, oh you're only halfway of the matrix. Those minorities never actually get any power. They're just eye candy to distract you from any kind of interest in how public money is acquired or spent.

No one is oppressing anyone. 

I consider oppression of any kind to be bad not just for an individual, but for society as a whole.
So, we shouldn't oppress criminal behavior? 

Building society on hate should never be anyone's goal, as societies built on hate cannot last.
Oppression =/= hate!

American society is NOT built on so-called, "hate."

It costs you nothing to simply admit that a person can be what that person wants to be.
True. However, when it is forced tolerance, acceptance, special rights, and illegitimate laws forcing the aforementioned then that crosses the line. 

To place people in roles, against their will, is the same as enslaving them.
No, it is not. 

You wouldnt (sic) force someone to get married. 
Clearly, you've never heard of the concept of arranged marriages. 
Notwithstanding, this is a false equivalency fallacy where the freedom of association and leftist intolerance where trans are concerned goes. 

However, we do not get to impose our views on others, as that is oppression.
And yet that is EXACTLY what the minority leftists/progressive who support and proliferate trans/queer/gender ideology are doing to the majority. 

If you want to be called the way you like to be called, why call others the way they dont (sic) want to be called?
*Your fantasy is not my responsibility. You will be called what society, norms, culture and the law allow. If you're born a male, I will refer to you as such in any given context as appropriate to said societal norms, customs, culture and defined by law. If you don't like it, too bad. That's reality. I do not and will not live in your fantasy, and neither should the rest of the world. The world doesn't revolve around you!!! 

If you want to be called a man, why call other person a man if that person wants to be called a woman?
See above comment in reply (*)

After all, the standard is only just if it is universal.
Your fantasy isn't universal, but reality is. 

If you dont (sic) want to feel pain, then you should also not want for others to be in pain.
Emotional/mental pain is entirely subjective. 

*sigh*

The rest of your OP is just nonsensical drivel; the entirety of which makes absolutely zero sense other than to pander to the mental disorder of gender dysphoria and transgender/queer/gender ideology (err, cult).

Okay lol

Silly Rabbit, emotional/mental pain is unique to the individual claiming to experience…therefore it is subjective. There is no objective way for another to feel EXACTLY (without variance) how another’s claimed emotional/mental pain is experienced. 

So laugh all you want, shows you’re the one being foolish here.

Okay. What do you lose when calling transwomen women? 

Because if they say they like being called that, and it costs you nothing, where is the problem?

My grasp on scientific/biological reality, and a lack of integrity in oneself for lying to not only myself, but another.

Fact vs fiction. 

Schizophrenics like being called clairvoyant, does that mean they are in reality? Nope. And no one is going to refer to them as such. 

Your entire premise here is bunk, complete and utter wishful thinking fallacy.

Based on my reasoning on the matter so far, either a person's gender can be established conclusively regardless of anyone's perceptions, including the person themselves, or gender is completely arbitrary. I might personally have no problem recognizing someone as the opposite gender from what they were assigned at birth, insofar as my own perception of them agrees with that, which may be flexible enough to overlook certain features they retain that are atypical of their chosen gender, whereas another person may have a narrower set of criteria which would exclude those features. Our disagreement here would amount to nothing more than a difference of opinion, unless we had a foundation for establishing the official facts of the matter, which is necessary if we were to assume that any greater societal and legal convenience constitute a legitimate interest... meaning the only way you could effectively assert your claim would be if you can say "well screw you, this is what it says on my official documents". Otherwise, gender could be changed on a whim, and you could decide that you are a man today, a woman tomorrow, and non-binary next week, using any bathroom you want irrespective of how you actually present yourself, and there'd be no grounds to label that as socially dysfunctional behavior.

You might think that a person's self-identity alone is enough to establish their official identity, but let's be honest, would you genuinely recognize as female someone who only dresses and uses makeup like a woman, with no other feminine features, just because they want you to use she/her pronouns? Even if they somehow register in your perception the way that they identify, would you really expect the rest of society to follow your example?

Some points:

1. Roughly 21% of Gen Z identifies as some category of LGBTQ, a figure unheard of for previous generational cohorts. While it could be largely indicative of increasing self-awareness of the Kinsey Scale and one's position in it, it does very strongly imply that, to some degree, trans identity is a social contagion. After all, if it always boils down to genetics like so many activists claim, then there's no reason to think Gen Z would "inherit the trans gene" far more often than Boomers do. The collective human genome has never changed that quickly before.

2. Something people were conditioned into by modern society is something they can likewise be conditioned out of.

3. Trans people, even those who've fully transitioned, are at dramatically higher likelihood of suicide and other social ills, meaning this is an actively harmful social contagion.

4. For obvious reasons, even those trans people who suffer no other ill effects are functionally sterile. Many castrate themselves, have homosexual (allegedly heterosexual) relationships, or struggle to find a partner because they're generally considered less attractive. Thus, a social contagion affecting up to a fifth of people is a threat to the birthrate, which was unsustainably low even before the emergence of said social contagion.

5. For these reasons, it is for the good of society that the social contagion ought to be combated. This can be achieved by: (1). Rhetorically countering the left-wing narrative that glorifies transitioning; (2). Gatekeeping sex reassignment access so that only those the most predisposed to wanting this, i.e. those whose desire to transition demonstrably isn't the product of a fad, can have it; and (3). Ensuring that those who've visibly transitioned continue to incur some social penalties for life, so that people who non-medically transition are once more divided into a majority of quitters who bought into a fad and a minority of persisters who didn't.

Yes, probably a socio-psychological recreational sex trend relative to ongoing and inherent socio-psychological derived penis vagina angst, relative to procreational angst relative to other socio-psychological trends, such as material success, social expectations, sexual  equality and "Western" style social  liberalism, to name but four..

Though it may be something in the water and/or naturally occurring evolution, based upon the precept that everything that occurs within a Universe at any given moment is naturally occurring.

I am told that same sex genital stimulation is also an increasingly popular option.

Though probably best not to get hung up on other peoples hang ups or proclivities, if one wishes not to get hung up too.
