They do not lose the advantage of hormones. And I listen to trans people constantly. I'm friends with several, I support and defend them constantly. And guess what, most of them tend to agree with what I'm saying. You'd probably call me a misogynist because I support mens prisons being allowed to forbid women from working on the prison floor. Because you see something against a group and you assume it's because of hate for that group and never consider that it's actually a decision I thought about and weighed the evidence and arguments in. What you're asking for isn't support, it's blind worship. ... Copied to Clipboard!

nemu posted...The idea that we need to ignore objective reality to protect people's feelings is so dumb. There is a vast difference between respecting someone's inclinations to live as the opposite sex due to something they cannot control and bending over backwards to affirm it even to the point of ignoring how the world actually works. That addresses nothing of what I said at all. The feelings in this context are those of anyone who gets so caught up in this idea that a mental state of mind needs to override the physical reality we live in. That's not even necessarily trans people, but anyone who pushes for it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Regardless of gunplagirl's hostility, she's correct when she says that there are often very strict regulations put on transgender athletes for the sake of fair competition. While there may be room to discuss the quality of the regulations, it's not like we just "let men change their gender identity and fight women in the ring."

That was a terribly written article. I couldn't tell where the story breaks for a commercial insert. And it's a story about an event from 2014. Why is it being posted now? Without looking at the video, I'd be wondering why the referee didn't stop the fight before this turned out (and I'm not gonna watch it, I don't do gore even though I watch UFC casually).
In any case, to the topic, Transgendered females shouldn't be in the same ring as females born naturally. Depending on when the transgender females start their hormonal treatment, puberty could have already underwent and give them a permanent advantage. --- imgtc.com/i/4HgTl0ebzq.jpg imgtc.com/i/60CWP2Gtlg.gif ...

Why are you the way you are @gunplagirl Okay. Let's go with this. Somebody makes a bunch of jokes about you and they're actually really harmful. But they say it's all in good fun. They're laughing, you're not. You know those jokes are based off lies, and those same lies are used by people who actively advocate for you to be killed. So you tell the person who is making jokes about you "hey that's not funny, that's the same stuff that people who want me dead say" and what do you get told? "Oh well I support you." But that's the extent of their support. They say they do but when the opportunity to stand up against the people advocating for your death arises, they don't say a damn thing. And when they're told directly by you "hey please stop" they don't listen. Saying they support you doesn't mean a thing if there's zero actual effort made by them to support you. And if they're actively making those same arguments as the people who want you dead with debunked or outdated "science" then no they don't support you at all, they're actually the exact opposite of a supporter as they're continuously doing things that oppress you and ultimately maintain the status quo. It isn't "just one thing", it's the culmination of things that leads to them being called out as not actually being allies. The only ones being inflammatory are ones like squall, or yourself in a lesser capacity --- Pew pew! ... Copied to Clipboard!

From what I've seen, most cause for concern comes from either cherry-picked news stories or from before such regulations went into effect. For example, there was concern when a transgender athlete won an all-female track event, in spite of the fact that said transgender athlete hadn't won many times prior. It was only after she finally won that people's concerns escalated. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just dont feel thats really where octillery is coming from. Its coming from two different positions that, frankly, neither one has posted any source for the claims, however its more general knowledge that transgender athletes are under more scrutiny and have stricter regulations to compete. Unless either one of you have some sort of source from what youre both claiming as experts on this its just going to go back and forth.
And as far as my post being inflammatory, fair. --- Beep bep <.< >.> <.< Hotness: https://imgtc.com/i/6SC3Wu5.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Comparing transgenderism to a mental illness that shows you aren't really just looking to keep things fair in sport, you have a blatant agenda behind your posts. Oh yes, I do. I describe what is physically there. A circle is round. A square has four edges. A male has a y chromosome. Oh look at me stating facts. So offensive. The entire point of the separation between men and women in sports is because there is a clear physical difference between the sexes.

And oh look, you're throwing words in my mouth. Women being banned from working the floor of male prisons. Okay let's look at that. Many prisoners are there for nonviolent crimes but the violent ones are usually against women, or at the very least the prisoner has a history of violence against women. That policy is to protect women from prisoners who have demonstrated that they have been and can be a credible threat against women. Which is to say, you just compared a trans woman in a consensual combat sport to women who work at prisons being assaulted by male prisoners. Do go on about that evidence that hormones as a kid impacting them as an adult after years of HRT, I'm sure you've got plenty of decades old studies on it oh wait. --- Pew pew! ...

ROFL. No. I'm pro LGBT, but I'm also pro fairness in sports. The differences between races are nowhere near the same as the differences between men and women, and those differences do not go away after transition. That is scientific fact supported by the medical community. This, even though the NBA and NFL disproportionately black doesn't mean there aren't white dudes who can dunk and run 4.3s (the Cowboys actually have two guys on their team who can). Women on the other hand... Yes I know there are women who can dunk, but not as easily and it's more stressful on their bodies. --- sig ... Copied to Clipboard!

Except being transgender isn't a mental illness so your whole facts argument goes out the window. "A mental disorder, also called a mental illness[2] or psychiatric disorder, is a behavioral or mental pattern that causes significant distress or impairment of personal functioning.[3] Such features may be persistent, relapsing and remitting, or occur as a single episode. Many disorders have been described, with signs and symptoms that vary widely between specific disorders.[4][5] Such disorders may be diagnosed by a mental health professional." So thinking you are physically something you are not is not a mental illness, but being sad is a mental illness.

I don't think anything I said in that post is hard to follow. It doesn't matter if it's the shape of the brain, hormonal factors, or simply 100% in their head, the person feels the needs to change their body and lifestyle to match their how they feel. That is perfectly acceptable, and there should be no particular reason to be against that. The problem comes when people want to ignore the physical reality completely, the whole "real man" and "real woman" line of reasoning.
