Transgender athletes face growing hostility: four tell their stories in their own words
  • Yeah I get what you said, I don't understand your point though, the main advantage men have in terms of muscle mass comes from their T levels, trans women have the same if not lower T levels than cis women, so why would they have more muscle mass? Again the one study we do have shows that they have LESS

    YeSS it would be nice if we had more studies in regards to this stuff I don't disagree, there is a shocking lack of actual evidence and scientific study when it comes to hormone therapy and everything, but the couple pieces of evidence we DO have show that there isn't a difference. Trans women have been allowed to compete in women's Olympics since the 2000's why haven't they dominated the category? Cause it doesn't make a difference, or at least the differences are so minimal that in practice they might as well not exist

  • TIL: There is a breed of goat that is half black and half white -- The Valais Blackneck goat
  • Well, I ain't no animal scientist but most fur patterns that I'm aware of exist to either make the animal blend in (by being the same color as stuff around them) or to break up their form so it's harder to recognize from a distance, and I can see how being literally cut in half color wise could help break up their shape

    Again that's just a guess on my part tho

  • Stolen from imgur rule
  • I mean, I haven't looked at all the data and whatnot but I imagine there are people who have millions of dollars that earned it honestly, 200 million is a lot but again I bet there are non horrible people that have that much

    The reason people use 1 billion as an example is there is no good way to earn that much money, no one has ethically earned 1 billion dollars in any example I've ever seen at least, so it's a good baseline

  • Hayden Christensen wants to play Darth Vader in more 'Star Wars' projects
  • No you're right, if you are a young actor handed the lead role of a huge franchise that could jumpstart your career and set you up for life you should DEFINITELY turn it down, after all you wouldn't want to do a poor job of it right?/s

  • Starfield design lead says players are "disconnected" from how games are actually made: "Don't fool yourself into thinking you know why it is the way it is"
  • Say what you will about the Starfield producers and management but I absolutely 100% guarantee you if they chose not to use that feature, it was for very good reasons.

    Not the original commenter, but this whole argument you put here falls completely on it's face since we know that modders HAVE done this and haven't had any issues (or at the very least have been able to solve said issues), if compressing the textures and whatnot actually broke the game then the modders wouldn't have been able to do it without breaking the game

    Even if they supposedly had a reason, then it was a bad one

  • Remember, if Fascism wins it is YOUR FAULT.
  • While I agree third party candidates are not really the solution, what exactly is rage and outrage that can't be ignored gonna do? How is that gonna change things? Do you think the lawmakers and people in power and gonna just gonna fix the system that put them in power just cause some people got mad? More importantly changing all that would take time, way more time than we have before the next election, so what do you recommend we are suppose to do right now?

    Please be a bit more specific than "get mad", cause trust me, a lot of people have been mad for a long time, just getting mad doesn't fix anything

  • Thoughts on three strikes?

    Basically what it says in the title, what are y'all's thoughts on the three strikes ltm? Would you like to see it become a permanent? Are there things you would tweak?
