Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

There it is lol. thanks for nothing, bitch
an ideal world is one where all the fascists and capitalists are laid out in a nice little line and mowed down with .50 cal's
"Period, end of story."
"That being said..."
You support trans people. BUT... is not support of trans people. Its not complicated. The science is not complicated, its settled and theres no difference.
If you support trans peole stop at "end of story."
Edit: i reread your post and its even worse than i thought at first glance. You're just an outright bigot in denial.
Women's figure skating was created because Madge Syers was too good and the men felt threatened.
It's not complicated whatsoever.
A transwoman is a woman, regardless of where they are in transition. They don't have to transition AT ALL for that to be true.
They are a woman with a condition - being trans.
A trans man is a man, regardless of where they are in transition. They don't have to transition AT ALL for that to be true.
They are a man with a condition - being trans.
The only "complicated" thing in this is your bigoted mindset. You believe that these people are not what they say they are until they undergo and complete transition. You see them as their gender assigned at birth, which is incorrect, and you see them as "changing" their gender by undergoing invasive hormone treatment and surgery. This is a completely bigoted transphobic mindset and you need to rid yourself of these brainworms.
The issue is that you think they need to transition in order to be fucking valid dipstick. By enforcing "you must transition first" you are actively taking the position that they're not valid until they do.
Fuck you. Stop talking to trans people. You are dangerous to them and their health.
when there is an @ after the username, you can be assured the chance of being a shit opinion is high
There an "easy fix." There is an "easy answer" and you know exactly what that is the same way that ghoul does. The reason we don't live in an "ideal world" is because people like you advocate for throwing minorities under the bus the moment our existence becomes even slightly inconvenient for you.
Unless you believe that people will change their genders expressly for an advantage in sports, the differences aren't salient. And you shouldn't believe that.
It is pretty complicated, yeah. Scientifically accurate human sex is not conducive to cleanly segregating people into two categories. Yeah, there are clusters, but I guess all systems are perfectly reasonable as long as you ignore all the ways that they don’t make sense or fail to do their job. Ending gender segregation is the only valid solution.
But question of whether or not the Biden administration’s Department of Education should be using its powers to limit trans kids from playing school sports? That’s the only thing they have the power to do on this issue. And the answer is not complicated.
I don’t understand what you mean by this
