Trump signs executive order intended to bar transgender athletes from girls' and women's sports
As usual, trans men do not exist to these fools.
Not that or matters to the sentiment, but men often compete in an open class, not a men's protected class, which is unlike other protected classes like women or disabled.
Yes, I know the Air Bud rule as it applies to non-male athletes in male leagues. And I will say the same as I did elsewhere in this thread- "Black men can't play baseball in the National League" was not a rule. They just made sure any black man until Jackie Robinson knew exactly what would happen to them if they qualified. And that probably didn't include rape threats.
I think it just shows how little they actually value women in any way, shape or form.
They see trans men as a total joke, that they'll never be a "real" man, and of course women would want to be a man! Being a man is the greatest thing ever and only thing these people have going for them, and in effect, transmen affirm their gender identity as being "the best".
It's the same reason they hate transwomen so much. They have such a low view of women, it disgusts them that anyone would willingly lower themselves to that level. It attacks their idea that being a straight white men is the best thing ever, and the idea that maybe it's not, and someone would willingly give up their masculinity and be happier is beyond horrifying to them.
They care about women alright, more than Trans
This will lower grocery prices
MAGA wants trans men in the women's washrooms and trans women in the men's washrooms. Give them what they want.
It's not that simple, you need to understand the effects that Hormone Replace Therapy has on the body. Men and trans women physically do not have the same type of body and the studies even shows trans women perform worse than cis women in most areas.
I want you to stop and really think critically about what you are trying to suggest. Do you really think it's a good idea for trans men who are regularly taking testosterone should be forced to compete against women who aren't? Do you really think trans women who have lower testosterone levels than cis women (because they are medically surpressing) have some sort of advantage?
What you're saying is at odds with observable facts, scientific studies and frankly common sense.
Sure just kill 12 specific kids across the entire US in the name of “being fair”. Fuck those 12 kids. How DARE they exist.
I show people pictures of guys like him every time I see some bigot talk about how women are uncomfortable changing next to trans women in locker rooms and that they should be restricted to biological sex. "So you're saying women will be comfortable changing next to that "woman," are you?'"
Sure let's base everything off of kid's and young adult's birth genitalia rather than their athletic abilities in athletic competitions. I guess all that noise about "meritocracy" was just bullshit, right? Also the noise about "participation trophies" was bullshit too since we can't have anyone with any perceived advantages in competitive environments.
You don't know any trans ppl do you?
my argument there is that no one under 18 should be using hormonal treatment to treat gender dysphoria.
You do not deserve to stand between psychiatrists, endocrinologists and their patients. The medical community overwhelming disagrees with this assertion and you do not have the right, authority or education to make these sort of limitations.
People will make up all kinds of mental gymnastics
Science. We use scientific studies. Your gut reaction and feelings are not more valid than numerous peer reviewed studies.
Very level headed take. I agree.
I thought this was the small government that wouldn't be telling people what to do
No no, government is only involved if it is against MY views
