The amount of T in a man can never be the same as you can pump into a woman without serious damage.
I identify as a man with tattoos all over my face. I can't join the police service or the military. It severely limits my choice in life. You can't expect to change something so drastic as your gender and face no side effects. Choices have consequences.
I think the issue Beemann is trying to bring up is that a trans woman MMA fighter has an unfair biological advantage- it would be of no concern if a trans woman was identical to a biological female, but the issue is that a trans woman is generally taller, stronger, has longer reach, and weighs more
So generally speaking a cis woman will get the shit kicked out of her
she wouldn't have a significant advantage after transitioning tho
look at Fallon Fox
she's a featherweight and not particularly remarkable
I'm not sure I know Fallon Fox
You are talking about bone mass, tendon strength and muscular density.
she's the trans woman mma fighter that made headlines
There's always exceptions, tbf
mutilating your genetals doesnt change your sex.
same way as chaning logos on car doesnt change car brand.
I just think as a general rule, bio males do have a significant advantage when it comes to fighting
honestly, i think this whole sports issue is only temporary as new generations start preparation / transitioning early
It is so different.
>transitioning early
Unethical tbh. Dysphoria in kids very rarely goes beyond 18
And from what I recall, puberty blockers aren't really a solution to the problem
obviously if someone decides to transition in their 30 or what not there is gonna be massive diifference in all those factors before mentioned comapred to kid that started with hormones asap
Puberty for men does not end really till mid 20's.
Hell, I'm 19 and I'm DEFINITELY not done
I have a relatively high pitched voice, I'm only 5'5, I can't grow facial hair on my cheeks
I know people in their late 20s who are permanently babyfaced tbh
Oh fuck, that'll be fun, the metal singer who needs to show his ID to buy 15-Rated movies
Having to manscape is an all afternoon affair bro.
why you make this so weird.
you have ether X and X
or X and Y
and that determinates your sex.
and mutilating your body doesnt change that.
for sure
oh sure, chromosomes are one thing but there is difference between male and female brain, if you are born with brain closer to the female norm you might experience disphoria with your body and you can fill in the blank from there
some peope might not even notice, some people can deal with it, some need transition
"brain closer to the female norm"
source plz
so you can determinate sex by scanning brain?
if so shouldnt that be reguirement for sex change?
>you either have xx or xy
Not strictly true
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_abnormality
And there are two reasons for someone transitioning outside socjus shit
One is brain scan shit
One is just extreme dysphoria
Both should be a last resort basically
Bio is still going to pump you full of E or T. It doent care what your brain says.
you dont threat mentall illnes with surgery...
Actually they used to. #lobotomy
That's actually not really true at all
Epilepsy in extreme cases is treated with brain surgery basically
In which they cut through the corpus callosum
There's probably a number of other similar instances tbh, and we'll probably find more as time goes on
yea
Mental illness is essentially just errant brain function and the brain is a physical organ
