-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I'm sorry to say this, but like most cis people who like to talk about trans people's bodies, you have no idea what you're talking about. You talk about scientific facts, yet lack any understanding of what transitioning even does to a person's body. You often see transphobes throwing around their "biologically male" line when talking about trans women, when it goes against all reality. You people with these "opinions" always leave out the fact that a trans person's body goes through various changes that affect one's biological composition. Hormone therapy doesn't just change someone's appearance. It also changes various biological processes, including bone density and loss of muscle mass. If you'd even do the most basic of research on trans people, you'd know that trans people talk about these things all the time, because they're very obvious changes that you cannot ignore. As a matter of fact, the irony is that there are many trans women who have even lower testosterone levels than most cis women, due to how much androgen is being suppressed with HRT. All of this stuff is medically known.
Yeah, you're going to be ripped apart for this, because your so called "support" for rights is purely performative if you're undermining those very rights with misinformation.
No, it wasn't. Wtf? It's never been an issue until conservatives maliciously turned it into an issue. How many cases of trans women dominating sports do you about? I would like to know. Trans people are a very small minority. The amount of trans people who play sports is even smaller. Out of that tiny tiny minority, how many even play on a professional level? This wasn't going to become an issue. And you can't take the politics out of it, because turning this into an issue when there's a completely lack of evidence that the issue even exists, is very much a political act.
