she's a featherweight and not particularly remarkable

2018-10-15 15:04:04 UTC  

I'm not sure I know Fallon Fox

2018-10-15 15:04:49 UTC  

You are talking about bone mass, tendon strength and muscular density.

2018-10-15 15:04:51 UTC  

she's the trans woman mma fighter that made headlines

2018-10-15 15:05:55 UTC  

There's always exceptions, tbf

2018-10-15 15:05:57 UTC  

mutilating your genetals doesnt change your sex.
same way as chaning logos on car doesnt change car brand.

2018-10-15 15:06:16 UTC  

I just think as a general rule, bio males do have a significant advantage when it comes to fighting

2018-10-15 15:06:26 UTC  

honestly, i think this whole sports issue is only temporary as new generations start preparation / transitioning early

2018-10-15 15:06:32 UTC  

It is so different.

2018-10-15 15:07:12 UTC  

>transitioning early
Unethical tbh. Dysphoria in kids very rarely goes beyond 18

2018-10-15 15:07:32 UTC  

And from what I recall, puberty blockers aren't really a solution to the problem

2018-10-15 15:07:46 UTC  

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

2018-10-15 15:08:06 UTC  

Puberty for men does not end really till mid 20's.

2018-10-15 15:08:33 UTC  

Hell, I'm 19 and I'm DEFINITELY not done

2018-10-15 15:08:58 UTC  

I have a relatively high pitched voice, I'm only 5'5, I can't grow facial hair on my cheeks

2018-10-15 15:09:16 UTC  

Like medically they've determined I'm behind, I have delayed bone growth and stuff

2018-10-15 15:09:35 UTC  

I know people in their late 20s who are permanently babyfaced tbh

2018-10-15 15:10:22 UTC  

Oh fuck, that'll be fun, the metal singer who needs to show his ID to buy 15-Rated movies

2018-10-15 15:11:00 UTC  

Having to manscape is an all afternoon affair bro.

2018-10-15 15:17:47 UTC  

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.

2018-10-15 15:17:48 UTC  

for sure

2018-10-15 15:19:14 UTC  

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

2018-10-15 15:19:46 UTC  

some peope might not even notice, some people can deal with it, some need transition

2018-10-15 15:20:05 UTC  

"brain closer to the female norm"
source plz

2018-10-15 15:20:38 UTC  

so you can determinate sex by scanning brain?
if so shouldnt that be reguirement for sex change?

2018-10-15 15:20:57 UTC  

>you either have xx or xy
Not strictly true
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_abnormality

2018-10-15 15:21:52 UTC  

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

2018-10-15 15:23:16 UTC  

Bio is still going to pump you full of E or T. It doent care what your brain says.

2018-10-15 15:24:53 UTC  

you dont threat mentall illnes with surgery...

2018-10-15 15:26:38 UTC  

Actually they used to. #lobotomy

2018-10-15 15:26:40 UTC  

That's actually not really true at all

2018-10-15 15:26:56 UTC  

Epilepsy in extreme cases is treated with brain surgery basically

2018-10-15 15:28:29 UTC  

In which they cut through the corpus callosum

2018-10-15 15:29:42 UTC  

There's probably a number of other similar instances tbh, and we'll probably find more as time goes on

2018-10-15 15:30:24 UTC  

yea

2018-10-15 15:30:27 UTC  

Mental illness is essentially just errant brain function and the brain is a physical organ

2018-10-15 15:30:38 UTC  

sorry, had to run off

2018-10-15 15:30:43 UTC  

S'all good

2018-10-15 15:31:54 UTC  

I think it might be a case of loving who you are. Kind of accepting who you are maybe?

2018-10-15 15:32:03 UTC  

I guess thats what people define mental illness as I guess. What if a brain tumour is causing something, does removing count as well?

2018-10-15 15:33:00 UTC  

Actually another question
