As a trans woman — Sports is such a contentious topic for me.

On the one hand, I want us to be treated fairly and not separated from our cisgender sisters.

On the other hand, male puberty is a motherfucker and can absolutely give real, permanent athletic advantages that can never be fully reversed.

That said if a trans woman went on blockers and never went through male puberty, I see no reason to stop her from competing.

People are so polarized on this. No one allows any space for details and nuance, but those things matter just as much as the broader principles and ethics of the issue.

For real.

I came here looking to avoid the censorship of Reddit.

How can these people believe in a magical sky daddy who punishes finite sins with infinite torture while somehow being “benevolent”… with no evidence… purely on faith…

Then turn around and deny an internationally documented holocaust with thousands of pictures and weeks of footage…

And think they’re going to be rewarded with eternal bliss after death — not just in spite of these beliefs, but because of them…

I’m embarrassed to even be the same species as these “people”.

My girlfriend thinks capitalism is fine and doesn’t care about billionaires existing.

She’s never had a minimum wage job or worked in the service industry 🙄
