You are missing the fact that this issue is so unimportant and that even talking about it when everything else is on fire is… well… kind of moronic tbh.
There may be environmental issues which are dependent on your gender at birth.
Can you elaborate on what you mean by this and why it’s important? I don’t understand how your gender at birth affects the environment in any way that matters.
I still don’t see how that’s relevant to the environment. I’m guessing you just misspoke there.
Good science will consider your assigned sex at birth for these stats where relevant. No one is disputing the value of having that information and no one has problems with it because this data is all anonymized. The problem that the OP is referring to is when this data is collected without anonymization and used to bring harm to specific people based on their medical records. There’s no reason for anyone besides your doctor to have access to your medical records. Scientific studies require explicit consent to get that data.
“means more” isn’t a factual statement, it’s a value judgement and some people value being the best version of themselves more than they value leading a miserable existence because of their genetics. Environmental issues are also just that: results of the environment rather than innate expression of X or Y chromosomes. The point the OP post is making is that instead of focusing on economic policies, global warming, and wars, politicians are more focused on who decides they’d be happier as a man/woman/non binary person. It’s a complete waste of time for everyone BUT doctors and researchers since we shouldn’t be judging or limiting what people can do based on what genitals they were born with, and instead be focusing on how to fix massive, glaring, and disastrous issues such as the ones described in the post.
If they were talking about that set it would be useful to specify that set. But of course that would mean using icky terms like “cis” instead of denying the humanity and even biological existence of trans people. Can’t be having that, now.
It’s clear that Joe is just a transphobe hiding behind “Oooo technically important oooo” ignoring the fact that the fascists want to check children’s genitals not for any of those “important” reasons
Wanting to ensure the fidelity of data is not transphobic. You can be trans, that’s fine. For data purposes, what were you born as? Male? Thanks. You’re a woman now? Ok cool.
wanting to probe my genitals while not being my doctor is transphobic, that is the only person who would EVER have to see my genitals. anything more is a sign of a serious issue, words cannot describe the discomfort that would cause me, and im a grown adult.
The women’s sports that they care so highly about at this time for some reason. Next they’ll probably talk about some hypothetical niece that plays sports and “whatever will she do” in sports with the trans
If there’s no genetic advantage for men, why did Chess have separate divisions?
The ACTUAL answer is misogyny. Chess was(and still is tbh) a very misogynistic “sport” back in the day, and many male professional chess players refused to play against women, and the ones that did play against them were often crude. To try and get more women interested in chess, women only divisions were created. It has literally nothing to do with genetic advantages.
If there’s no difference in sports or shit with men and women, shouldn’t we just have one division?
I would think so, yes. I’m no expert on either lol.
If a sport that doesn’t depend on physicality still has separate divisions ( literally chess) what does that mean to you?
What is it supposed to mean? I have no idea why it’s like that. Here’s a relevant wikipedia article. I don’t know why you’re asking me this lmao, but I didn’t come here for an argument. I made a joke. Peace out ✌️
That our society didn’t even let women take part in marathons at one point and the first time someone did that was by just taking part without making clear that they’re a woman and they’ll be themselves taking part in it. You can draw your conclusion from that
I can’t speak for chess, but in gaming where there’s similarly no sex advantage, female gamers are rarely seen at the higher levels because the environment is very hostile towards them. Creating a separate women’s league would alleviate this to some degree and encourage more women to actually try to reach for the top.
Top teams won’t even consider a woman. I recall years ago applying for top guilds in World of Warcraft. I logged onto TeamSpeak for the interview, said hello, and was immediately rejected because “women are too emotional to work with”.
A woman might be the best player in the world, but the sport doesn’t respect women and will deny her a platform .
Rude. Are you proud of your insult? How does that help the conversation? If a human doesn’t understand something, it is because they were never taught. You had an opportunity to educate someone about something you know. You had a chance to spread knowledge. You chose to insult them.

It is but unfortunately ignoring it just leads to our rights being stripped more
As a trans man, I see this as an absolute win. /s
I’m just making a pedantic joke btw. I’m assuming you’re talking about cis women.

No it’s not.

You keep saying that but never giving a fucking logical reason. Reading your schizophrenic replies is getting old.
Explain, why it’s fucking important. Saying its important doesn’t make it so.

What is transphobic here?

Because the field is known to be hostile to women and filled with creepy incels? Have you SEEN how they act anytime a “female gamer” pops up?

You must be a troll account because a human capable of literacy asking that question honestly is beyond comprehension.
