Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Why? You'd have to ask the authors why they put up a transphobic site. My guess is that they're either personally hateful bigots or just amoral cowards who take money from the same.
As for how...
Go read the "about us" link on that advocacy page you keep pushing. Specifically the part about how "activists" are trying to confuse their "truth".
The advocates they're talking about are non-cis LGBTQIA+ folk whose dastardly agenda is "just let us be who we are." I suspect that if you scratched down to their funding source you'd find some of the same people pushing bathroom bills and gender marker shenanigans on official documents.
For the Nth time, it's an oversimplification because categorizing all humans based on which reproductive cells they make ignores or misgroups humans who either don't produce any or who look and smell like they might produce the other ones than those they might once have produced.
So the link isn't transphobic. Each chart has links to sources. Please learn.
Sorry, you're confused. Nobody is ignored or misgrouped. Everyone has a sex. Some people don’t produce gametes. Their bodies still contain sexed structures.
Looks and smells aren't how sex is defined. You're confusing gender and sex. Please stop.
I'm not confused, you're just a transphobe.
