I’m not sure what the Democratic leadership CAN do, honestly.

Log Cabin Republicans are basically the "Feeding My Own Face To Leopards" party.

Actually, Republicans are only interested in freedom, right to privacy, and limited government for business interests. They really aren’t at all interested in applying those things to people, even their own. It’s kind of the mirror image of the liberal viewpoint.

We very seriously need to plan for the likelihood that there’s no way to stem the tide here. People are angry about Democrats not doing anything—okay, be angry, rail at Democratic politicians, whatever. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: if you take the most dim and cynical view of Democratic politicians,…

THEIR freedom.

The party that is always prattling on about freedom, right to privacy, and limited government demonstrates once again their willingness to throw all those things away when it comes to anybody they don’t like - women, LGBTQ+, Blacks, Muslims, Mexicans, and Democrats.

I mean Clarence Thomas put Loving at risk with his decision and he’s literally in a (terrible) marriage that would be illegal without it. I don’t think conservatives are necessarily anticipating when this will impact them. See “it’s not really going to be at 6 weeks, it will be 15" or “It’s not going to make it…

Actually you didn’t. As you always do, you just type a bunch of words, with no evidence, no logic, no understanding of anything.

Saying that the entire question of fairness in sport related to trans athletes is based on one athlete is just not accurate. It’s been brought up about several athletes.

The reality of the situation is that there is clear scientific evidence that trans women have a competitive advantage far beyond the normal distribution of the advantages some biological women have.

Yes, you said that. You directed everyone to a study which made an inaccurate comparison based on testing they did not do, and insisted that that study was the only possible reason the person you’re responding to could be calling the author in question a TERF even though in the comment you are responding to the…

So...it’s totally legitimate to use inaccurate testing as long as the results can be used to support transphobia? Because that’s what you’re insisting. And yeah, it’s totally unreasonable to call someone a TERF because they abandoned basic standards of evidence to try to bash trans people and spread cis-supremacist…

I’m not entirely sure that’s even true as relevant here, but in any event, they’re women, I’m not sure why women should be excluded from activities that are specifically for women.

Why would women compete in the men’s division?

They posted a citation, which is just as good so long as you’re capable of using google.

Really that’s all you’ve got? Someone already posted a related citation, you can go find the rest yourself.

All of this shit is basically a solution in search of a problem, caused by some disgruntled athletes who I guess think they have a right to first place, and ultimately serving the right’s agenda to rid this country of any visible/out LGBTQ+ people. It’s astonishing that one swimmer who had one excellent college…

The reality of the situation is that there is clear scientific evidence that trans women have a competitive advantage far beyond the normal distribution of the advantages some biological women have.

We need to experiment. We need to punch more scumbags in the face to determine whether there’s any causation.

If a scumbag got punched in the face and decided he should stop being a scumbag, I'd say that's a win.
