letting MtF athletes compete against biological females is fucking ridiculous

The athlete question is quite valid

I think for sporting purposes, "discrimination" is perfectly valid

We already do it in weight classes for fighting, for example

also, the pronoun thing is really irritating. Who do these people think they are that they can change the fucking language people use

They have to confiscate the guns before the Traps really get going

even if they never tried to legislate it (which obviously they will given the chance) it's the epitome of fuckfacedness to demand someone call you some made up term and then demand they remember all 187 other made up terms so they don't offend you or your friend

Live in the shadows like lepers, I say

🙂

I only have a problem with that stuff in terms of it being enforceable in a work setting

Like, I already avoid crazy people right?

And if I see them at the store, no big deal

Especially since most aren't even acting out in any way

But sure, I can imagine a future where I get fired because I don't want to refer to my coworker as an elephant or something

That said, if the janitor thinks he's an elephant, and he's a good janitor...

If he's a nice guy, I'll probably call him an elephant if it makes him happy

@qwasi this has nothing to do with the transgender community in this context, no matter whether they are MtF or FtM they still would call themseleves Male or Female

But I don't like the idea of getting fired over not

TBF, that's main reason why I'm glad I'm rich

that's what these screeching assholes don't get, stop screeching at me and I'd probably cal you whatever you wanted me to

Avoiding people I dislike was my major motivation

@The Meme Lord what do you mean it has nothing to do with the trans community? It had everything to do with trans people

if you hack your dick off and dress like a man, but you are biologically a female, you're still a female

I think being really militant against that stuff actually makes it more likely for laws and shit to be passed that restrict freedom of speech

What I was originally talking about was how our binary notion of gender doesn’t accomidate for non-binary or intersex people

or get one attached, whatever these nutbags do

Like, if you just avoid them and privately laugh

yea, that's a dangerous bit a strategy

Reminds me a bit of assholes that insist you call them 'doctor' if they have a ph.d

Haha yeah

Marines have an out, "we only call Corpsmen Doc"

what is the percentage of non-binary people?

.00000002?

then I dgaf

TIL they supposedly have a murder rate less than normal population as well

I looked up, something like 0.6% identify as trans

despite all the rhetoric abotu trans murders

Idk about other mental illnesses

0.6% is a lot

they are overrepresented in attacking women as well

F-t-M is just sad, M-t-F is some other shit
