- hobs 2y agoApologies, but I really do not care about sports awards or whatever - we're basically at the point in the USA that we're trying (or succeeding) to force de-transitioning because of bullshit like "He took her awards!" When there's an impact that individual bad actors have, that's why we have individual punishments - we don't punish all men or all women for one bad actor, its nonsensical to treat trans folks as some homogeneous group when they literally embody the opposite :]
- bobalob 2y agoUnderstood, but I would still recommend reading that article, as it addresses some of your points and you may find it an interesting perspective.
