Obviously reporting transphobic comments to a transphobic mod isn’t going to result in any action, so I’m wondering if the admins are going to do anything about it?
(if someone needs an image description, please ask)
fun fact: your body is an incredibly dynamic system and hormones are the major drivers for those changes. swap the hormones out and the body adjusts to its new normal. when you do this is fairly immaterial.
also ‘later in life’ you mean when adults are playing sports together? oh no… or do you mean professional sports where transgenders currently would be banned regardless because of bigotry? what exactly are we talking about here?
maybe you should leave these opinions to train medical professionals who work with these issues on the regular instead of your gut.
Later in life like, after puberty… I feel like I was pretty clear.
I’m not using my gut, I’m using my eyes and seeing trans athletes that are bigger and wider than cisgender peers, and then asking if that affects anything in certain sports. Nowhere did I state trans women shouldn’t be playing any sport. I posed that as a question, then followed up with my thoughts on the issue and asked for dialogue contradicting my opinion - because I want to be wrong about this! I’m just asking because I thought this would be a good place to ask. Judging by both responses to my comment, it’s apparently more important for me to know I’m wrong than to help me know what’s right.
Are you a trained medical professional?
Na you’re just playing classic tucker carlson. ‘just asking questions’ nonsense. You see the OP literally linked to research that literally answers your questions but you act like no one has provided you with anything and somehow therr is a debate here. But there isnt, there is just a bunch of misinformed and bigots playing off peoples ignorance.
Yes im a trained medical professional. So kindly get bent
I’m not debating anything! I admit I don’t know which is why I was asking for information! I see that OP links to research in the screenshot, but I can’t see any links for me to click in this crosspost OR the original post! I said my opinion and welcomed facts to prove me wrong, and at no point have I tried to argue I’m correct! You’re right, there is no debate, I’m not trying to debate! But I figured someone, maybe even OP, would at least link the studies from the screenshot. Especially since I don’t know what community the discussion originally happened in!
Maybe the wording of my post drew some ire, and for that I apologize. But I sincerely think that having a misinformed opinion is not cause to shame someone, especially if they’re literally asking for information! If you think that all I’m going to do when I see the studies is call them bullshit, that’s fine, I get it. The internet is hostile and there are bad actors everywhere trying to get people to waste time and energy. But are you seriously going to just shit on me for being ignorant and just tell me “uhhh stop it dumbass” without even trying to educate? I get that I have internalized transphobia… kinda comes with the territory of being a rural trans woman. I just thought this would be the fucking space to ask.
That’s nice. Move long Mr. Carlson. ‘welcomed facts to prove me wrong’ says it all. You have enough information from the original image and other comments in this thread to find all of the information you need. Its not our responsibility to educate every asshole carlson running around.
You’ve at this point:
Now its your turn to take personality responsibility for educating yourself. Like probably every person here has done on their own. If you don’t know how to do this at this point in your life, I suggest community adult education classes, they’re generally free and that person is being paid for their time to teach you basic life skills.
I will offer to clarify any medical terminology you run into or specific questions about specific sources you find that are from peer reviewed medical journals.
