I don't want policies that exclude you. I want policies that work for everyone. I don't want your extermination. I want everyone to live in peace however they were born.
Yeah, she didn't want to wrestle against someone who went through male puberty, someone who had been dating a girl a year prior in a straight relationship. Someone who got into the league on a single condition. They checked a box. I don't blame her for not wanting that, and it isn't fair that she had to make that decision. It's not. The fact that you can't admit that is absolute proof that you are unable to consider the entire situation and the real world. What happened to her was a result of an over-compensating faculty that was acting completely out of fear. They made a mistake.
I don't make policy, believe it or not. I am just a random person. I get that you are having a tough time, but it's not my fault. You can make fake accusations all you want, but that won't do anything to change the fact that I've done nothing to hurt you or any other trans person. You can make up situations in your head all you want, but that doesn't make it any more real. It's not going to help you or anyone one else to create monsters out of everyone who isn't exactly like you. That's bigotry, and it is disgusting. It is appalling that you do not know better, although it is possible that it is not your fault, and you've simply been tricked. If that's the case, then I hope you find a way out of this mindset. The world is so much bigger than you.
On your point about factory farming. I've been vegan for years due to factory farms. I stand up for my beliefs with my actions. I don't even use soap that isn't vegan. You can create a false world if you like, but I suspect you will be much happier in the real one.
I think you should reread my comment. I am highlighting how your veganism shows you are better than this.
I've not been shown any way in which I'm wrong. Just a bunch of pre-packaged senseless ranting about how I support people who chant for your extermination. I understand that you have probably talked to people that are how you are describing me. They have nothing to do with me though. This is an issue of you mistakenly lumping a bunch of people together because that is what you are used to doing or something.
If there are people who want trans people out of sport because trans people are icky and they want us to die, and you want trans people out of sport because you don't understand hormones and want simple blanket rules that result in exclusion, you support their political goals. They will use you, because that is how they work.
you are not being discriminated against, you have spent longer arguing with me than you have reading about endocrinology or studies on trans performance at sports. That's lazy and shitty behaviour. Educate yourself ffs.
Nope. I don't want trans people out of sports. You made that up. I repeatedly said that I don't want to exclude trans people from sports or to take away any rights from anyone, that's just something you came up with because you need to simplify things or something. No big deal. If you are curious about my stance for real, you can go look through my comments. I guess it is just a bit tricky to understand that there are people who exist outside of the boxes you've been conditioned to think everyone has to exist in.
On a related note, this is what it looks like when someone is thoughtful and explaining trans issues without just assuming that everyone different from themself has to be evil or whatever(most likely you have some fundamental religion in your past that you haven't managed to completely shake yet).

I hope it helps, although I suspect your issue has a bit more to do with self-reflection(this is often the case when someone is senslessly attacking people and making up other people's POVs), not something that you can fix simply by seeing examples of someone a bit more mature. At any rate, nice chat, good luck, stay warm.
God you're insufferable. I doubt you've even looked at my profile lmfao
You are right, I hadn't. I'm not in the habit of doing that, I just tend to reply to comments. I gotta admit that i dont see the humor in not looking at people's profiles, but I'm glad you got such a good laugh out of it.
Great that you are a vegan!
you suck!!!!
Anyway, I've said my piece you suck on this issue, I hope you cool off and reflect. You're clearly someone who is willing to change their mind and be empathic and thoughtful.
