Conflicting Thought

You gave them the benefit of the doubt, and they answered, so can we stop pretending now that there are no transphobes in this thread? People here are sooo worried about being called transphobe " not me!" They say, while actually discussing if trans women are real women, like are you fucking with me? Reminds me of the oh so well meajing liberals, more outraged of being called racists than actuañly question their racists belives and actions. How can you call yourself not a transphobe and spend this entire threads ( and others) defending transphobe talking points, dehumanizing transpeople, some of whom participate and read these threads, questioning there very sense of being. You guys are cowards, just get on with it, say what you want to say up front. Cuz You really dont give a fuck about transpeople, you want them to know they could never ever be "real" women, cuz the you would not spend the last 4 or something pages discussing fucking gametes or some shit like that. What was the possitive thing about the nhs policy again? Some of you are transphobic and misoginysts and need to deal with that asap.

Controvertial to you, existential to trans people. Cant you understand that? People here are debating the existence and validity of trans people, its not some fucking thought experiment that has no real world consequences. People really are saying "well you can call them women all you like, but we all now the real truth, they are cosplaying, they are not FEMALES" its disgusting

Oh? Tell me please, how are you being illuminated by the article, im sure it will all be very reasonable

Yeah https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/books/2021/apr/20/richard-dawkins-loses-humanist-of-the-year-trans-comments "The evolutionary biologist’s latest comment, the board said, “implies that the identities of transgender individuals are fraudulent, while also simultaneously attacking Black identity as one that can be assumed when convenient”, while his “subsequent attempts at clarification are inadequate and convey neither sensitivity nor sincerity”. “Consequently, the AHA Board has concluded that Richard Dawkins is no longer deserving of being honored by the AHA, and has voted to withdraw, effective immediately, the 1996 Humanist of the Year award,” said the organisation." You can and will dismiss this but yeah fuck dawkins

Yeah, not the first time they use "questionable" sources to make a point. I mean if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and cites shit like a duck then maybe, just maybe...

i knew it! you dont know (or dont "want" to know) the difference between sex and gender.

Thats why israel says they have killed 17 thousand (aprox) "hamas fighters" wich just so happens to be every adult male that has been killed so far. Its insane.

thing is, the cycle of violence didnt star on oct 7, if oct 7th didnt happend, the cycle of violence in gaza and the west bank keeps on going as it has on the past, except now there is a huge escalation of the destruction and suffering of the palestinian people.

Who is saying that biological sex doesnt exist? And what does it mean to recognize that biological sex exist, in your view.

And to do that they need to genocide the palestinian people, awesome, and who is going to do something about israrl, wich country should occupy them to stop them.

Yeah i saw it after i posted, my b

Doesnt typically invade, but they do interfiere whenever they can in subtle and not so subtle ways. And the efects of those interventions lasting decades and still being felt today

And do you like that? Maya Forstater, of the Sex Matters campaign group, said the changes were "excellent news". "The confusion between 'sex' and 'gender' in official policies like the NHS Constitution is what has enabled women's rights to be trampled over in the name of transgender identities," she said. Such wonderfull people, full of empathy and genuine care for trans people

Oh what a shocker

I would go further and say that western democracies are a major force driving conflicts, often getting away with things that "shtihole" countries could never.

I get the impression that you are not discussing this in good faith as i never mentioned hamas, and hamas are not the ones genociding palestinians, but good try, i guess? And your "question" is the definite nail in the coffin to me, so im not going to bother with you anymore. Byeee.

What does genociding palestinians has to do with jewish people right to live? Do palestinians have the right to live? And to live free with everything that comes with that. Or for you, jewish people are superior to palestinans in some way

doesnt mean they arent thinking, but what "they" think is doing material harm to people, what they belive can have very bad consequences for the people that are actually impacted, like for most of us here this are just abstract discussions on fairness or whatever, but for trans people there are actual stakes, including their lives

Didnt know where to put this, but i think here its a good place New york overturnes harvey weinsteins sex crimes conviction https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/04/25/us/harvey-weinstein-conviction-overturned-appeal Even when the acusation couldnt be more real we get shit like this

You asked karaddin for her opinion, what did you think of what she said to you? Did you changed your mind?

i agree with what you are saying, i totally agree with the concept of death of the autor, once a piece of art is released to the world, its up to the observer to extract meaning from it. i enjoyed your post, just wanted to get some clarification cuz all im saying is that just because you can get meaning from a sunset or an ai "creation" it doesnt make it art. but im not an expert or anything im willing to learn.

what is the percentage of trans women wining over cis women? i have seen trans women lose and win in competitions, dont see how thats particularly unfair. as other people said, sports is inherently unfair, you can have genetic advantage, or money advantage,etc. like if all people want is making sport fairer then focusing in trans people is ridiculous, makes no sense to me, given that they are a super small percentage. and there are currently in sports much more unfair things (and i dont think trans women in sports is unfair) that focusing in trans people has to have another explanation other than the suposed unfairness that they bring nobody is saying that michael phelps or usain bolt or serena williams wining is unfair, all of them have advantages (genetic or otherwise) over their competition.

in what way?

no, your emotions are valid, its just not art, if everything is art then nothing is. and im with scott in this one, art must be created by a sentient being, art is purposeful. to me art is more than a colection of random things that happend to be configured in something beautifull or awe inspiring

I mean in practice they are, given that almost all competitors in almost all sports take them If you think that getting rid of steroids means we would not have professional sports, the i really dont understand what the problem is with trans people competing with cis people.
