OT "I'm Dealing With A Few Transgender Issues"

I'm sure you're including all religions in that proposition.

 

I am. How do you feel about it?

 

The Azores.

 

Clearly, to starve, rape, beat, torture a child (or adult) is harmful. And the law recognizes children are not on equal footing with adults, that's why, for example, a 10 year old cannot consent to sex.

No one is arguing that.

But if a person wants to maintain children and teens are harmed by exposure to history, literature, art, music burden of proof is on them. The fact they disapprove doesn't make it harmful.

ABM has changed his position. Previously when I pointed out my parents had exposed me to information on everything from napalm to Nazis he said it was their choice. Parental choice. Now parents are not allowed, in the "free" state of Florida, to make those choices. And what the new god emperor says, like the old god emperor, is gospel to his cult.

 

Just admit you only want to save kids from things that make YOU feel uncomfortable.

 

Derp derp derp

 

Aww, Chris, I'm suddenly verklempt.

 

Well, then? Get on with it.

 

I don't consider being transgender a disability. If the ruling is people can't be denied medical care, that's good. Not sure if disability rights is best reason.

 

Good point. What is a disability?

Is it if you're born with a physical feature that requires surgery?

 

Women need to realize attacks on trans girls and women are attacks on all of us. Anyone who is too large, too strong, gender nonconforming or too good at "male" subjects. Previously we were called "unfeminine" and possibly lesbians. Now we can be criminally investigated, forced to publicly have our genitals inspected.

 

Simply determine what the classification requires and have all contestants in any league interested get a physical.

Then you automatically know that everybody in a division is medically elligable for that division.

This doesn't have to be an invasive policy and it doesn't have to target anybody.

 

I have had my genitals inspected by physicians half a dozen times in sports physicals (I assume most athletes have?). But there are also other ways. An x-ray or other scan would be pretty conclusive.

 

That isn't a genitals check though, it's a hernia check.
