A core part of my values is not excluding people for attributes they were born with. If they’re an asshole, they should be excluded regardless of gender or anything else. I’d feel the same way if it were any other born characteristic being excluded.

It’s like when I see a cybertruck - I disapprove of the driver’s choices, but they had every right to make them.

It says in the sidebar that anyone who doesn’t exclusively identify as male can decide if they think a women’s community is a good fit for them.

Having a penis doesn’t cause dysphoria in all trans women. You can be a woman and still pee standing up! Unless you’re in a public bathroom in a red state.

“Having your voice dismissed due to your gender is wrong.”

dismisses your voice due to your gender

I hope that’s not a reason they actually give, because it’s incredibly hypocritical.

Unfortunately, this appears to be real.

Creating an environment that’s conducive to good parenting would be great, but it’s not “making” parents do anything. It’s still up to them. Poor wording on defenestrated guy’s part.

They don’t have to kill the gorilla, just disable it. Fingers, meet eyeballs. It’s hard to stop five pairs of arms at once. It would be at great cost to the men, of course, but it’s not as impossible as you make it seem.

That’s good, but being trans is also an attribute you are born with. I get why they do it, and if it works out well for them, I’m not gonna say they’re wrong for doing it. I would just never do it myself.

The difference, of course, being that “American” does not equal “good.”

Just how is a government supposed to make parents actually parent their children? That sounds like it would be an even worse surveillance state than requiring ID to view porn.

Not a big fan of an attribute you were born with making you ineligible to comment in a community, but their community, their rules.

It would probably take 5 -10 unarmed (and not allowed to use any tools) fit adult men to take down a gorilla, depending on a variety of factors. Most gorillas would rather run than confront humans, though.

Also, in general, I try to default-write in “they”/“them” pronouns when I don’t positively know someones preferred pronouns.

I looked him up to see if he used something other than he/him and found that he removed his pronouns from his bio in January, a not-so-subtle jab at trans people. Add it to your pile of why he’s shitty.

Rabbits are lagomorphs, not rodents. Not that I would expect a medieval enchanter to know that.

How do they verify the selfie is actually the user?

Why are you using gender neutral pronouns for it? Is it because it removed its pronouns from its Twitter bio?

Too bad he’s on the other side of them or Thomas could just hit the brakes right after him.

This is REALLY familiar…

They’re Labouring very hard for the corporations.
