quantumloverTransgender women athletes banned from women’s Olympic events by new IOC policy
I mean… Good?
We separate genders in most sports for a reason. If I were a woman who trained my whole life as a woman, and got to the Olympic level, and I suddenly had to face an opponent that went through puberty as a man, trained as a man, and then a few years ago decided they were a woman, and began taking hormone blockers, I would be fucking pissed. There are significant biological and hormonal differences between men and women, which is why testosterone levels are monitored and regulated among female athletes.
Overall, I think articles like this are just intentional trolling with rage bait about stuff that doesn’t directly concern or impacts a thousandth of a percent of the population.
There’s real news in the real world that’s impacting all of us that we should be aware of and angry about.
Careful about saying stuff like that on Lemmy. If you can’t tell by your downvotes, you’ll find out when they start stalking you. lol
TrickDacyWhat are you going on about, mate? I’m not transphobic at all. The Olympic committee decided this, I had no vote or say about it whatsoever. Did you even read my comment? lol
What did I say that is transphobic, then? Weird projection you have going on there.
I know exactly what it means.
Now please show me even one example where I’ve said or posted anything transphobic. You’re the one who threw the accusation at me, so let’s see the receipts. Where’s your proof?
A person says something transphobic. You tell them be careful all these horrible users will get mad. Nothing to explain. Lol and yeah I’m revealing my own transphobia by simply pointing out that I saw what you did. Idiotic trolls can never reverse the bigotry they spread so why the fuck are you bothering? Absolutely no one who isn’t also a bigot will believe you.
I didn’t say “horrible users.” I said people would be mad at what he said. And they were. I was right.
Hmmm, again, there you go showing your bias, and projecting yet again.
You have no fucking idea what projection means, transphobic troll who is now blocked.
Of course you blocked you me. Because you are mad that I was right. And you can’t defend yourself because I called you out.
You totally made up a false accusation about me. Makes me wonder about what other stuff you make up.
AmnesigenicAnything’s possible when you make shit up
