As heinously stupid as this is, it's just another reminder that #transpanic bullshit is about policing how people express gender in public (full stop.) It has nothing to do with trans women competing in women's sports or children being forced to take on a certain gender (shit that happens rarely or almost never.) It is about enforcing a particular, American, culturally conservative, christian form of gender expression.
Two women enter a high end hotel in #Boston, male security guard enters women's washroom, bangs on stall door yelling about proof of gender as woman is using the toilet, guard kicks both women out as other women yell and scream at them for being male creeps who are pretending to be women. Both are cis female #Politics #EnoughOfThisShit https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/women-boston-liberty-hotel-bathroom-gender/
Discrimination against trans Olympians has roots in #NaziGermany
The forgotten Olympic history of #TransAthletes.
by Alex Abad-Santos
Updated Aug 1, 2024
Excerpt: "Outside of the [Olympic] Games, trans people face so much backlash, often for simply existing. The conversation around sports is particularly fraught, from children’s athletics right up through the pros. Despite the International Olympic Committee vowing to be more inclusive, the future for trans athletes is unclear.
"It all raises the question: How did we get to this point, and did it always have to be this way?
"The answers found in historian and journalist #MichaelWaters’s The Other Olympians: #Fascism, #Queerness, and the Making of Modern Sports might be surprising. Waters’s book traces the emergence of #ZdeněkKoubek, a track and field star representing the country formerly known as Czechoslovakia who, at 21, won two medals — a gold in the 800m and a bronze in the long jump — at the 1934 Women’s World Games. (The Women’s World Games was the precursor to women competing at the Olympics). In 1935, Koubek announced that he would be living life as a man and swiftly became an international celebrity.
"Perhaps the most intriguing facet to Koubek’s story was in the public response. Koubek was more welcomed and celebrated than we might imagine. There was an open-mindedness and empathy to the reception of Koubek and his gender identity and expression in the 1930s.
"Waters also pinpoints where and when that changed, specifically at the #1936Olympics in #Nazi Germany. Armed with a propensity for #eugenics, #GenderAnxiety, and a startling lack of scientific evidence, a small set of Nazi officials influenced the International Olympic Committee into #GenderSurveillance and #TransPanic — stuff that eerily mirrors the #transphobic attacks that athletes, cis and trans alike, face today."

"And Sen. Danielle Conrad (Dist46-Lincoln) criticized business groups that had not organized a campaign against the paid sick leave ballot initiative now trying to water it down in the Legislature.
" 'They are deep-pocketed with plenty of money to fight, and they chose not to because they knew that they had leverage here, where senators would do their bidding,' she said. 'They didn't wage a campaign because they knew they couldn't win, and they waited it out until they could find enough senators who lack the discernment to have that battle in the public dialog, and to sneak into the Legislature and undermine the will of the voters. And it's wrong.' "
Also mentions a bill "banning transgender athletes from participating on school or collegiate sports teams not corresponding to their sex at birth."

Why read past headlines: Details, receipts. The "anti-trans" order led to canceling sexual assault prevention in the military. Title IX rules to prevent sexual assault are gone. It also put "women" on the list of banned words for medical research. https://www.salon.com/2025/02/10/women-is-a-banned-word-uses-trans-panic-to-strip-rights-from-all-women/
Politicians are using a very isolated and insignificant demographic as a distraction from actual real-world problems, resulting in hysteria similar to the Satanic panic of the 1980s. Allies overcompensate for this hysteria and try to protect that demographic by being as "inclusive" as possible to a ridiculous degree, which actually does more harm than good. The spirit is there, but the execution is terrible.
