They’re still pushing the “cis women get aroused by themselves as women too” bullshit

( SecondSkin )
But… so what if women did? It doesn’t involve us violating other women’s boundaries even if some women did. Apg is a boundary violation paraphilia, it doesn’t exist without violating women’s boundaries and making us scared and unsafe. Even if there were women who get off on the idea of being a woman, they are women and that reality doesn’t involve forcing others to comply to their delusions and demands. So it’s a false equivalency. It’s like saying people who are only happy when others agree the world is flat = people who are only happy when others agree the world is not flat. It’s nonsense on stilts.

( CryingInYourInbox )
Right like let's say theyre correct and women express the same sexual behaviors we would consider to be AGP on males...the fact that they're similar wouldn't be a coincidence, it would be both women and men emulating the idea of what men find arousing. Men are the gatekeepers of sexuality, like literally. They lock women up it chastity belts and kill them for having sex. We haven't been allowed to express sexuality outside of what males deem palatable so of course there would be overlap between a woman self objectify and AGP type behaviors

( shewolfoffrance )
I mean, even if women were engaging in inappropriate sexual behavior in women-only spaces at the same rates men do (they really, really aren't), other women would at least be able to report them and take the appropriate next steps. That isn't the case with TiMs. They have Teflon armor. Even in online spaces that informally meant for women, TiMs who display obviously fetishistic behavior are treated with kid gloves, and the spaces slowly die because women would generally rather quietly pack up and go than get metaphorically burned as a witch.

RE: Pentagon Begins to Implement TIP Policy in Military

( VestalVirgin )
I am mildly curious just how much money Trump's new politics will save the state. 🤔

He is doing a lot of shit that will cost money down the line (apparently he's appeasing Covid-deniers by stopping the funding of epidemic tracking), but trans shit is so expensive (and a "gift that keeps giving", but in reverse, from the perspective of those who have to pay for it) that I wonder if he might actually save money, in total.

( Mizuna )
You can't put a price on morale. Transgenders in the military drive down recruitment, and they make our military look like a joke. Social media is full of memes like this dunking on the US military. Do you think China or Russia find this intimidating? They're probably laughing at how far our military has fallen.

( LunarMoose )
the idea that we pay for this and don't get soldiers who are 'combat ready' is insane. That's the whole premise of signing up - to be ready to fight.

But. Please. Let me just read one article in which combat readiness is raised in the msm........

( LilianH )
The actual cost of the medial transition is probably not a huge amount considering the size of the US defence budget, but a TIP can't really fulfil the role of the soldier or be deployed so removing them from the army completely might start to save a few billions a year.

( VestalVirgin )
Yeah, it isn't just the cost of their surgeries and stuff, it is also the fact that they pay a soldier who takes a lot of time off, so isn't even working 100% at desk jobs, and isn't combat ready on top of that.

Some say that foster children were being targeted

If this is true I would believe it. Its obvious to me the whole case surrounding Keira Bell is one of racism (removal of her reproductive organs), misogyny and tokenism. Foster children are defenseless, what better group to target for the trans cult?

The article mentions that trans are a "small part of the population" so why do they also mention the fucking miracle that is thousands of trans in the US military? we all know they are there for free cosmetic surgery. They aren't there to serve anybody but themselves.

Big Pharma is definitely mad. Take the free money away and the number of the trans diagnosis will drop like like a stone. None of it was real.

I would 100% believe that foster kids are groomed into the gender cult. They don't have stable families to protect them from creeps. Most of them are damaged from trauma and abuse (both physical and sexual). And many of them are desperate to find a place/community where they can belong. They are prime targets for trans groomers

( SarahWilliams_13 )
In regard to the military aspect, my therapist recently asked me how I felt (she’s GC and pretty open) about it and I asked her: well, is gender dysphoria/ dysmorphia a mental illness?

She said good question. She then said that they are currently trying to change the DSM to state that it is not a mental illness. They want all that removed, so there’s no aspect connected to mental health.

I haven’t had a chance to run it down, but she’s no conspiracy theorist and is very concerned about these things.

( OneStarWolf )
Haha wow. So they want to pretend it’s normal for people to threaten suicide if they don’t get to cut off healthy body parts and induce hormonal disorders??

But of course they still want medical insurance to be forced to cover all their cosmetic surgeries and drugs, even though it wouldn’t be considered a mental health condition any longer 🙃

These entitled assholes just want preferential treatment and free rein on surgery and drugs on their say so, no medical diagnosis needed at all! Make it make sense! You can’t, because it’s backwards cult logic.

But they do harm women by their violation of women's spaces. They terrorize women.

A fox in a henhouse is a predator even if it never touches any of the chickens. The fox never belongs in the henhouse; it is a predator just by being where it will never belong.

Men never belong in womens spaces no matter how they "identify" or what they do, or don't do, to their bodies. They are always predators just by being - even just by wanting to be - where they will never belong.

( BlukBerry )
That's what these men don't understand or don't even care about.

The very presence of a man in women's spaces is violating, no matter what he's doing or not doing. Donning lipstick and a wig (or, thanks to self-ID, doing nothing at all) doesn't make a man a woman and it's absurd to argue otherwise.

It is not 'obscure'. Nearly all of my childs HS teachers use this in the classroom as FACT. How did the students react? The students all tried to identify out of their race/privilege. How'd they do that? The same way my graduate class did it. Some 'came out' as mentally ill (depression, anxiety and more). Others revealed they were poor and had few resources at home. And others talked about their families 'lack of privilege'. Many id'ed as 'non-binary' or 'trans'.

CRT is not obscure. It's taught EVERYWHERE. FWIW, It belongs in the world as a theory. It does NOT belong in HS taught as absolute fact. And it for sure doesn't belong in grammar school.

US judge temporarily blocks transfer of incarcerated trans women to men’s prisons | US news | The Guardian

Women should have their own sleeping areas, restrooms and showers.Now, maybe I’m being ignorant—always a possibility—but why wouldn’t PRISONER of War prisons apply to the prisons of the countries who signed? American prisons are allowing men in women’s prisons—violating women’s rights to safety, privacy and dignity. I know this is not a war situation, but I would be interested in anyone out there with a legal background giving your opinion. Can the two be equated?

The Gender Industry: Deconstructing Reproductive Sex

Continuing to frame the gender industry as "woke" political ideology run amuck, a medical scandal, and a social contagion, ignores the enormous power and money behind what is now an industry in deconstructing human reproductive sex.

[...]

The gender industry is, at core, a technological enterprise, one intent on removing humanity from its roots in the natural world, and toward greater fusion with technology . It markets the idea that we can transcend our humanity through technology, that we can change our sexed reality, embedded in every cell of our bodies.

While transsexualism and the macabre surgeries attempting to alter human sex, were made manifest in the bowels of the medical industry, with the help of sexologists, this paraphilia has been normalized and industrialized by the tech industry because it deconstructs womanhood. It reduces female reproductive biology to merchandise for sale. The normalization of this paraphilia of adult men, grooms the public to adapt to technological reproduction processes that remove men and women, as whole human beings, from reproduction.

This grooming process is particularly important for the youth, who are learning in schools that they can be created through technology, that their reproductive anatomy is both cordoned off from the rest of their bodies, and that compartmentalized, it can be treated as mix and match commodities for expressing oneself.

The gender industry is fundamentally a technological castration cult, which has been inserted into the market. It indoctrinates children to offer themselves as sacrifices to a technological god as an initiation rite toward transcendence from flesh. The destruction being meted out by this cult is happening because it attacks the nucleus of our humanity. If we continue to address the many fronts of damage it is manifesting, without addressing the monetized power at the root, we will be helpless to end the carnage. It may be possible to drive back some fronts, but overall the LGBTQI+ political apparatus, where gender ideology is being funneled into society, is extremely powerful and intent on advancing the rights of same sex attracted individuals to have their own biological children, with their partners.

Lethonal's response (I used only this part):

Believe it or not, abortion access is not the priority of every woman in the United States at the moment, some women believe being able to organize and define who/what women are in law is, because you can't write laws that protect women if a woman cannot be adequately defined in law. Conversely, laws cannot be written that harm women if women cannot be adequately defined in law either unless you do the patriarchy a solid and only attack women on the basis of their reproductive ability. Are you really going to fault feminists for playing chess on these issues when everyone else is trying to make them play checkers?

Abortion is a very big deal, but I like his analogy that we now have to play chess instead of checkers.

( MatchaMeercat )
Also there is only so long the Democrats can dangle that particular carrot without actually doing anything to enshrine reproductive rights into federal law before their “protection” rings hollow.

I don't disagree. But how can one defend women's reproductive rights without language that allows us to protect women? I get what they are saying but I agree that abortion access is a paramount issue for women.

RE: Weird argument from a Democratic friend about Trump's EO on sports

Today a friend said that what's wrong with Trump's EO is: "It's one way, and that is unfair. It bans transgenders in women's sports but not men's sports." After I pointed out that "the order bans MALES in women's sports, not trans athletes..." her reply was that the EO, by saying only women's sports needs protection, is casting women as vulnerable helpless creatures and Republicans as their great protectors and she finds that false and offensive.

[...]

A new memo seems to gone out from TRA HQ to all Dems and trans "allies" in the USA advising them to use this line of reasoning as a new ploy. Coz I've seen the same exact nonsense today on a sports forum where I post.

The new line of reasoning they're using seems to be based on the assumption that there's something weak, deficient and shameful about being the member of a group that benefits from laws and policies that provide protections against

By their logic, all Americans should be embarrassed by the protections provided by the First Amendment, by the Equal Protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and by the Environmental Protection Agency - coz they show us to be creatures who are weak and vulnerable. By their reasoning, laws that provide workplace protections mean everyone who works for a living, or has ever applied for a job, is weak and vulnerable; and wearing protective personal equipment or using a seatbelt is a sign of weakness and helplessnessness too. Having a homeowner's protection policy or product warranty means you're weak and helpless. And so on...

It's all nonsense.

Also, the only reason that the female category of sports needs protection is that boys and men and the gender idenity supremacy movement have mounted a full-scale attack and hostile takeover attempt on girls' and women's sports and spaces. Armed with phony baloney claims about gender identity, legions of aggressive, pushy, grabby, entitled, colonizing boys and men have plotted to pull off a full-scale invasion of the female category; and with the help of their "allies," males have attempt to colonize the female category and call it their own. The fact that the female category needs protection against boys, men and the GI supremacy movement as a whole reflects more poorly on them than it does on us.

Trump said he would protect women regardless if they want it. So, she's just using this thing he said and applying rather than look at the actual reasoning for why men shouldn't be in women's sports.

Just ask her, "Do you think men should play on all women's sports?"

( astro_terf )
These terminally online women don't want to admit the reality that men are stronger period.

As for trans identified females, it depends on whether or not they have taken testosterone. If yes, they have essentially doped and can only participate in the men's category. Same applies to the trans identified males. Only the women's category is protected. The men's category is open.

( pennygadget )
I've heard this argument before. Most of the people who make it haven't played sports since middle school and don't understand what they're talking about or why Title IX was created to begin with

I like to ask these people this: If physical differences really don't matter, why not campaign to make ALL sports co-ed instead of maintaining male and female divisions?

The answer: TIMs don't do it because the colonization is the point. Its no fun if the sports teams are all sausage fests (which they would be if all sports were co-ed)

lefty women can get upset by any attention to the athletic difference between men and women.

I understand the impulse to bristle when someone points out the true fact that women are physically weaker than men. I hated it for years when I was younger. However. I had male friends that proved to me from a young age that men are (easily) stronger than me, and I feel like that’s an important lesson for young girls.

Trying to pretend like these differences don’t exist will only harm girls and women in the long run, clearly.

Is it fair? No. It’s not fair that women are weaker, have to bear children. But it’s how it is, and we need to work as feminists with this in mind.

It’s forced teaming again. They’re labeling treatment for endometriosis “gender affirming” I’m assuming which is incredibly disrespectful and condescending. Laparoscopies, birth control, vaginal ultrasounds etc aren’t “gender affirming”. It’s needed sex based care for a condition that affects women.


Ah yes, the notoriously under-diagnosed and under-researched pretty exclusively female sex-specific, often debilitating condition with very few treatment options available except cutting out tissue in severe cases. Imagine what might be possible with just a fraction of the funding that's getting thrown at gender ideology if it got put towards endo-research, potentially making a huge difference in quality of life for approximately 10% of women around the world. There might even be medical care to offer women beyond over the counter painkillers, heating pads, attempts to stop the menstrual cycle, or a hysterectomy after years of excruciating pain!

What to know about Trump's ban of transgender women from sports - ESPN

( Eava )
Transgender women aren't banned from sports. They can compete with the men.

( notsofreshfeeling )
It's interesting how liberals will say, "So few female athlete will be affected, so what's the big deal?" and in the same breath, "It's an absolute travesty of justice that these few transgender people can't play sports!"

Why is it that a few women do not matter, yet a few men matter enough to have a complete meltdown?

Edit: I'd encourage people to say in response to these meltdowns, "It's such a small minority of 'trans people' who are affected, so why do you care?" Just like they said to us.

( Itzpapalotl )
Not read the article but...what is there to know? No men in women’s sport seems pretty cut and dry 🤷🏻‍♀️

( Peppermint )
I came here to say this. Who other than someone with an agenda would make an article like this? The only thing to know is men aren't allowed in women's sports. Period.

( Pickles )

At the NCAA level, president Charlie Baker said at a congressional hearing in December that fewer than 10 NCAA athletes used the association's transgender athlete eligibility policy. More than 530,000 athletes compete in the NCAA.

Yep. It's pretty fucking wild that so many people in charge thought it was OK to remove access to safe and fair competition for over half a million girls so that fucking ten men didn't have to hear "no".

Sure, you can try to spin this as "hardly any men choose to make use of this wildly irresponsible and unfair abuse of the rights of women and girls", but i see it differently. Anywhere that allows boys to identify their way onto girl's teams is telling girls "you can have your own leagues if every single boy decides to let you retain it. However if even one boy want to take that from you he can."

( notsofreshfeeling )
Oh no, where will all the mediocre male athletes on wrong-sex hormones compete? So awkward! Female athletes don't need fair sports; we all know women just want to "be kind" and have everyone walk all over them. It's our nature!

Will the Trump DOJ go back to publicly linking transvestic fetishism with pedophilia and other criminal behaviors?
Trump could score serious political capital to shore up his poll numbers as he dismantles the federal government. He just needs to release the TIM crime/prison stats and he can severely damage an entire generation of Democrats for going out of their way to enable obvious pedophilia and serial killer behavior.

And the fact that the government hides these stats from us only further justifies conservatives' distrust of it. Ugh.

Nancy Mace uses repeated t slurs on house floor

And none, none, of these supposed slurs carry any real weight. Women expressing contempt for men is not a threat except to their egos.

I think Nancy Mace's supposed "rudeness" is exactly what's needed. The whole trans and gender identity supremacy movement is about men controlling and dominating women, defining us out of out legal existence, stealing our identities, colonizing our spaces, taking away our hard-won rights, denying our experiences, beating the shit out of us in our own category of sports, robbing us of privacy and dignity, pushing us aside, lording it over us, bullying us by making up misogynistic rules, making it verboten for women and girls speak the truth, constantly telling us to STFU and sit down, and shaming us into silence.

BTW, people who considere themselves part of the "trans community" use the T word that rhymes with canny all the time.

TIMs use all sorts of dehumanizing slurs for women - vagina havers, cervix owners, menstuators, non-men, birthing people, birthing bodies, bleeders. They describe us and our bodies in the most demeaning terms imaginable. Yet we're not allowed to say anything that causes them offense or ruffles their feathers. It's just another case of the same-old double standards.

In fact, Mace uttered the naughty words in a House committee room. I believe this happened during a meeting of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

( sylviasmushrooms )
Seriously though, adding “-y” to a noun is like the most toothless slur ever. The worst slurs I can think of off the top of my head end in menacing-sounding consonants like “-t”, “-r”, and “-k” (phonetically, I know there is an e at the end of a particular anti-Semitic slur and also a lesbian one.) The “-y” suffix (outside of obligatory adverbs)usually turns a noun into an adjective (ie “bready”, “sandy”, ”cloudy”) or makes a word sound cuter (see “baby”, “mommy”, “girly,” “dressy”, etc.)

Trump Can Ban Transgender Birth Certificates

( Eava )
I think they're on weak constitutional grounds to think the federal government can impose this in the states. It's funny to see the WSJ pushing federal supremacy, they're usually anti-federal power and pro-state's rights.

"True intersex conditions, which result in genitalia that appear ambiguous or mixed, affect less than 0.02% of the population." Does he not consider CAIS an intersex condition? The genitalia is not ambiguous at all. He's wrong that definitions aren't needed. You can't pass a law categorizing all people when you know there are people who fall outside your definition. It doesn't help to create a definition where people with DSDs end up in the wrong categories. It might be necessary to have a list of DSDs and whether individuals with those conditions are male or female, and there has to be a process to correct birth certificates for people with DSDs.

( SatanicPanic )
People with DSDs are still male or female. There is no third sex or "in between".

( Eava )
So what is someone with CAIS or someone with Swyer? My point is there is a subset of DSDs where the "developmental pathway" criteria doesn't really work either.

( amethyst_sky )
Both DSDs you listed are males. The presence of the Y chromosome, regardless of it being active or not, means a person is a male.

Chromosomes are the instructions for what development pathway your body was supposed to go down, regardless of whether or not it did. A Y chromosome means a person is a male.

There is no such thing as a DSD that sits completely “in the middle”. All people w DSDs are still male or female.

Firstly, even though I support the Republican's executive orders (on all gender ideology + freedom of speech + illegal immigration) and a few things that they are doing, I'm not under the illusion that they care about the LGB (which ironically might have been somewhat hypocritical if they really did care). These are just cosmetic changes to comply with the executive order for anyone to see.

And secondly, even though I don't like homophobia, women like us have learnt to watch ourselves a very long time ago, and not constantly expect the world to validate us. The other posters have said it right. The Transgenders are not stupid. They are only behaving incorrigibly, crazy and in other mind-boggling ways, because the Americans, the English and Western Europeans will allow them to get away with it.

They will not pull the same stunts deep into Middle eastern territory or any 2nd-3rd/4th world homophobic country. They will simply remove the costume and travel as a normal dude, or if they really "do pass", they will suddenly develop decency and behave like a normal human being to blend in.

OP, I feel like this a blind spot. You are doing the "be kind" thing and thinking they are babies that need coddling.

So I say that there are so few of them that the government doesn't have to address it on the travel websites.

Also, since no one can tell without genital checks, then they should be fine.

Since they never cared when women's health sites started saying "menstruators" and "uterus havers," it's hard for me to care when website terminology changes might negatively affect them.

Additionally, many of them can just take off their costumes. I wouldn't expect the government to have a special travel section for cosplayers.

Yeah I mean I don’t really care either way, but in the sake of being completely “fair” sure, include some info that most countries are not interested in playing make believe (and that there may be severe consequences for doing so).

It is supposed to be an information hub, and to be fair, that is good info for those who are trying to pass themselves off as the opposite sex.

But keep that separate from the warnings for gay people.

I don't think it's really necessary, tbh. TIPs who insist on their identity being "respected" are usually very sensitive to power dynamics. They make unreasonable demands in western liberal countries because they know they can get away with it. They are not that stupid to try it in Saudi Arabia.

Minors might be naive enough to truly believe others see them as their "gender". Hopefully their parents know better.

Sports edict makes Trump a feminist hero

As a crowd of female athletes and little girls in tracksuits clustered around his desk, President Trump seemed unable to believe his luck. “What a nice picture this is,” he declared, signing his executive order entitled “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports” to a trilling chorus of “thank you, Mr President!”.

[…]

Yet here was Trump applauded by women, and not just Republicans but lifelong Democrats or previously apolitical sports stars like Riley Gaines, who turned campaigner after being forced to race 6ft 1in trans swimmer Lia Thomas. At the White House, Trump recalled watching that race: “It was ridiculous, frankly.”

And the nation agreed. A New York Times poll found 79 per cent of Americans (including 67 per cent of Democrats) thought men didn’t belong in women’s sports, making it probably the most popular executive order ever. “My administration will not stand by and let men beat and batter female athletes,” said Trump. “It’s common sense more than anything else.”

[…] So why did it take Trump to say this, and why did the Democrats gift their worst enemy such an easy win, allowing Trump — who in another executive order just banned all federal funding to abortion services — to be hailed as a feminist president?

[…]

The Democrats listened only to the extreme activist lobby, like the American Civil Liberties Union and GLAAD, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, who spun science-denying sophistry to “prove” putting males in women’s sports was fine and might even improve female performances.
For a quiet life, governing bodies, colleges, coaches, corporate sponsors, broadcasters all fell in line. But now Trump, the impudent boy, has broken the spell.

[…]

In his speech, Trump announced that all males hoping to compete in women’s events at the 2028 LA Olympics will be denied visas. It will not come to that. The International Olympic Committee presidency is being contested and all candidates, not just the trenchant World Athletics president Seb Coe, have vowed to defend the female category. They cite the Paris Olympics debacle, when outgoing president Thomas Bach said that holding passports stating they were female qualified two biological male boxers to fight women. Both won gold. The world witnessed sex denialism at its most dangerous, ludicrous and unjust.

Why I left the Democratic Party after voting for Kamala Harris — and why others will follow

( NastasyaFillipovna )
Dylan Mulvaney deservedly gets the hate he's getting.

But Rachal Levine must gate more and more hate. It should've been the straw that broke the camel's back, somehow it didn't. That guy is a clear male from 1000 yards, but still, we were supposed to say he's a woman? That too at one of the top positions in the country, a opportunity which real women were passed over for.

They were supposed to break the glass ceiling for women, they ended up creating a steel reinforced one instead. A male doing a womanface had more opportunities in the name of DEI than a woman who sacrificed her family for her career.

And if you speak up, you get rape threats. How classic. Threaten a woman with her worst nightmare possible, just because you don't wanna see a dick

I voted for Kamala Harris this time, mainly because of the threat of Trump winning. He did win. If the Democrats are still clinging to gender ideology come the mid terms I will not vote. They do not get my vote until they drop this policy.

I became a registered independent before the last election for the same reason I'd leave any other abusive relationship. And what they've been doing to women/girls, and enabling to be done to women/girls, is abuse. Real abuse.

She's pretty critical of gender roles, She supports abortion, and she's done a lot to change the conversation.

I'm pretty far left of her politically, but, I'm thankful for the work she's done on this issue, and I'll definitely listen to what she has to say on this issue. If nothing else, she occupies a necessary extreme point on the Overton window. Sometimes I feel like a lot of women dislike her in large part because of her look.

Yes - up until a few years ago, it seems that gender critical was almost solely a feminist term. I still consider it to be a feminist term, though it’s seen a lot of conservatives adopt it because they mistake it with trans-critical. Gender criticism means criticism of all forms of gender.

KJK has openly stated before that she’s not a feminist. She’s trans-critical, but given that she partakes in femininity, I doubt she’s critical of gender roles which serve as transgenderism’s backing. I’d be happy to hear otherwise, though.

In fact, gender dysphoria is not considered a mental illness in the traditional sense, but it is a recognized condition in medical and psychological fields.

Which is a sign of the TRA influence in medicine. Whereas all other forms of body dysmorphia are considered mental health conditions.

Either way, Smith argued that the condition further undermines the stability and cohesion of military units.

Not the First Female President - by Heather Heying

( Killer_Danish )

“Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

“Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

LegalEagle (popular BreadTuber) suggests a flaw in the wording above since fetuses, upon conception, don't produce gametes at that moment in the growth cycle. I understand he's trying for a lesser known tactic than the usual TRA, "aRe YoU cLaImInG tHaT sTeRiLe MeN aReN't MaLe, AnD tHaT sTeRiLe WoMeN aReN't FeMaLe?!?!"

But I do wonder if that bit "at conception" might be problematic later on when the legal challenges come...

( MarthaMMC )
The wording doesn't say that gametes are produced at conception. Rather, that sex, determined at conception, puts you in a sex class which does produce either large or small gametes at the appropriate phase in sexual development, or would, absent disease, defects, injury or surgery.

( notapatsy )
Such a clear description of reproductive biology. That must be why TRAs can't understand it.

They have this:

“Most scientists now reject the idea that sex is strictly binary. The likes of Nature, possibly one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world, has noted that “the research and medical community now sees sex as more complex than male and female”.”

Gendies are the flat earthers who successfully captured science and academia. That gives their beliefs some weight, for now. They think appeals to science will save them and their stupid ideology, I don’t think they have considered the possibility that they will drag science down with them.

( VestalVirgin )
Yeah. Compared to gendies, flatearthers are downright sane. Earth looks flat, and until the first ship sailed all around the earth, there was not even witnesses to the fact that the earth is round, just the possibility to deduce that info. (And photographic proof only exists since space rockets.)

But also, I am not aware that flat-earthism in itself ever caused any harm. Presumably, flat earthers don't work as pilots or astronauts or in other professions where their belief could impair their ability to do their job. Genderism, on the other hand ... yeah.

( oneofthesesigns )
This annoys me so much as an argument. We discussed this "the undifferentiated fetus is female" concept in my developmental bio class over a decade ago. My super old male prof was like that is only true if you assume that the female is passive genetically, which is misogyny. We don't know what a fetus that doesn't differentiate looks like as an adult because that is most likely a mutation that is incompatible with life and would result in a miscarriage shortly after differentiation normally takes place.

"scalling back rights or protections for one group hurts everyone"

The whole Executive Order - everything it seeks to rectify - is caused by the T. The larping men insist that gnc women, lesbian and even straight, will suffer by being challenged when they try to use womens spaces. Nah. We just, have always, mentioned that we are women; it only takes seconds of interaction to confirm that women are women. And of course the idiotic idea that women will all need "genital inspections" lol. Guess that is the TIM dream come true, but there is never a need for it.

The public is gradually becoming aware of how toxic the T is. We need to keep shining the light until everyone - including captured woke religious lefty types - realize that the entire problem is caused by all the letters after LGB. All the rest is an alphabet shit soup, without which that Executive Order would not have needed to be written. The TQ+ whatever are entitled to compassion after they are safely defanged and permanently separated from any association with LGB. Until then, the TQ+ sre the danger to women.

( pennygadget )

....scaling back rights or protections for one group hurts everyone

It is not a civil right to have one's identity validated. Especially when that identity is objectively not real.

Also, as a Jew, I really wish TRAs would stop with the "first they came for..." rhetoric. Telling a man who calls himself "Cuntina VonSluttington" that he can no longer put "female" on his passport or get fake tits via Medicare is not the stepping stone to gays&lesbians being loaded into gas chambers. On the contrary, trans ideology being mainstreamed has actively harmed the LGB community (ESPECIALLY the L). And being tethered to the TQ has caused support for gay rights to go down for the first time in 20 years

It doesn't really matter what a morula, blast, embryo or foetus looks like or what genitals it does or doesn't have.

By the time it emerges from the uterus, except in the case of a few rare DSDs, it will be absolutely, undeniably clear what sex it is and what its chromosomes are.

If it helps, I'm perfectly happy sharing a bathroom with a male morula if it wants to pop out for a visit. Just as most women are fine with young male children who are typically permitted in female facilities up to a certain age.

It's adult males that we prefer not to have in our intimate spaces.
