With these new rules, FIDE has managed to
- Imply the mental inferiority of women
- Validate the existence of transgender men
- Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
- Call transgender women men
Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.
Still seems like a fad to me. Just lost souls that “read it on the internet” or have had some university professor sell them on it. You’re making it seem far more normal and common than it is. There should be as much or more effort put into finding out why they feel this way and how to help them get back on track. We know that many of these kids are under massive pressure socially and the trans thing gives them a cause.
Conservatives won’t leave trans people alone? It’s the trans movement that wants this crap taught in kindergarten. It’s the trans movement that wants public displays of outright creepiness. It’s the trans movement that wants to normalize physical mutilation, screwing with hormones of very young people. Believe me, most of us wish trans folks would just go be trans and stop the theatrics. We don’t want it in public schools and don’t want kids seeing it shoved in their face all day. You’ve got it backwards as to who the aggressors are here. It’s your trans movement that won’t leave us alone.
Guess we aren’t on the same page here with this. Parents are sick of it though, that’s for sure. School needs to remain about reading writing and arithmetic anyways. The heavy handed social agendas being shoved in have no place. They got rid of religion in schools which was the RIGHT call. Now, they have to get rid of all politics and propaganda. Right away.
Gender diverse people have existed throughout human history, in cultures around the world. the gender binary is more of a “fad” than transgender people.
Because ultimately, it is a normal part of the human experience. Some small percentage of people are transgender.
There is. The leading theory is that they are, mentally, their gender.
Absolutely not. This is COMPLETELY divorced from reality.
The social pressure to not be transgender is MASSIVE. Coming out as trans WILL lose you friends, and may lose you family as well. That is just a simple truth that transgender people accept when we come out. Not that we may lose friends, but that it is basically a certainty. We risk getting kicked out of our homes. We face discrimination in employment, healthcare, and housing. And the media stirs up false outrage about us constantly, out lives are politicised.
Being trans is hard. People aren’t doing this to be trendy.
Yes. We are a tiny portion of the population that entire political parties in multiple countries are running campaigns against.
Oh I’m so sorry I would like to exist in public.
Then leave us alone.
I cannot express how much I hate people with your beliefs, without getting banned. The world would be a better place without people like you in it.
Sorry we disagree. At least you’re being mostly civil about it. Being in public just minding your own business and putting on a drag show are not the same thing and you know that. Being accepted and parading around flamboyantly are also different. I’d say most people are against discrimination when it comes to basic rights. Like, job offers, school admissions, etc. But, that doesn’t translate to pushing propaganda or overdoing it. There is a line here that’s reasonable.
Take care.
Sod off, into the sea.
