Trans woman here. Them wanting more research on trans people in sports doesn’t scare me.
The fascist pedophile rapist war criminals scare me.
That is all.
Them pandering to right wing anti-trans propaganda scares me. We already have so many issues with liberals being fake performative allies willing to turn on a dime.
Concede this ground and the battlefield of public discourse will be pushed further.
What if we’re wrong?
What if height, wing-span, and upper body leverage advantages can occur from male puberty and don’t simply “go away” with hormone treatment?
The truth matters.
You do understand that people come in a variety of sizes? Looking at female athletes their bodies dominate my little frame.
The fact you’re being such a fucking pick-me on this issue makes me livid.
It honestly seems like you’re just being a pick-me for the left.
There’s a reason medical transitions are a thing. Are you really going to sit here and say puberty and physical sex changes nothing?
Are you trying to change your body, or change the minds of the entire world?
What exactly do you expect?
I notice everyone has downvotes for me but no one has a real argument against what I’m saying.
