I actually can’t tell whether or not this is post is a parody.

It’s ridiculous. If a white woman had pulled this stunt, would Jezebel sneer at her black employer for being annoyed about the effect on his staff (who had taken time to help search for her)? Of course not.

Why isn’t this happening the other way around?  Why aren’t mediocre female athletes transitioning and suddenly winning medals in the men’s division?

It says at the top of the page that there are 100 comments on this article, but I’ve clicked on “Show pending” and can only see 32.  Is there a problem with my phone, or is anyone else finding this?  Are the comments being deleted?

Total bullshit, i’m amazed that 70-80% of the sports out there are still gendered. I’m 99% sure that women can compete on the same level or better than most men in most sports.

Would Jezebel ever publish an article enthusing about Derek Chauvin’s propensity for smiles and dad jokes?

It’s not funny, it’s creepy.

Jezebel is basically MRA Central nowadays.

Excellent article.  Pleased to see Jezebel finally acknowledging that abortion is a women’s issue.

The war on women will never end.

But transwomen aren’t men. They’re women with atypical genitals and secondary sex characteristics. In fact, you could regard them as suffering a hormonal disorder that makes them look like men.

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply :) There is evidence for possible differences between brains of people of different races - for example, there have been studies showing that Alzheimer’s may manifest differently in the brains of African-Americans and European-Americans (http://www.medpagetoday.com/neuro…

I’ve heard lots of people sneer about how “stupid” it is to compare transgender and transrace people, but I’ve never actually heard anyone give an explanation of why that is. The closest I’ve heard is that “gender dysphoria is a recognised condition” - well, that wasn’t always the case. Who’s to say that twenty years…

Thank you for posting that. I can’t find anything about murder rates so far, but as you said it’s a long read, so I might have missed it. I’ll have another look later.

Thank you. Could you link to the report, or give me a reference so I can look it up?

Are there any studies comparing the murder rates of trans women and cis women? How does the high number of trans women who work in prostitution factor into this? (Not victim-blaming at all - the murder of a prostitute is no less horrendous than any other murder. But it may be relevant to whether transphobia is the…

Very sad for Monica’s family and friends, but I don’t understand the significance of gender identity. How many women have been murdered so far in 2016?

“Last November, for one example, a group of bigoted maniacs swayed Houston into voting against a basic anti-discrimination ordinance last November almost solely off the strength of a fear campaign suggesting that trans women, if not discriminated against, would post up in women’s bathrooms and sexually assault young…
