I cannot believe that a former governor of New Mexico is running again and using the non-issue of trans girls playing in girls sports. I think 10 people attended her “rally” yesterday!
I had no idea what the terms "cis" or "cisgender" meant so I had to look them up. As far as I can work out, I myself am "cisgender" and so is my wife. Previously we would have been called a "man" and a "woman" - such horribly outdated transphobic labels.
@ Yorkshire Pudding -- "Cisgender" just means that your biological sex matches your gender identity. If it doesn't, you're "transgender." They're contrasting terms, like "straight" and "gay."
Codex: Martina Navratilova (lesbian) and Serena Williams both stated in interviews that they do not want to compete against trans and gave explanations for it. What do you think?
@ Codex -- I think they're overreacting. In their prime, they both could have beaten anybody, regardless of transwomen's diluted testosterone levels due to estrogen treatment. That's what being the best means.
I continue to be amazed by the number of trans women I deeply respect who are in powerful roles and I only later find out are trans. It just ads to my respect. FWIW, I am a cis man.
Codex: What about letting trans women compete in the men's team? Or mixed teams? I used to be a Varsity athlete, but in sports where it really made no difference.
🤨 All of these are excellent! That first one drives me crazy! The hateful people are always the hypersexualized ones! Another person's sexual life oughta be treated like we treat the sex life of our own parents. 🤢😬 "Ew, I don't wanna think about that at all!" And, then, we move on to more vital issues for the well-being of our kids...like school-shooting prevention! 🤬

Great words to reconsider
I really hope that's a genuine church sign.
The last one!
I love these! Snagged a few. R
Bravo!
So true about the dangerous people in each era. Especially the interested in women's sports "suddenly".

That last one. YES!
I agree with rights for all people...it distresses me to see our friends treated so poorly.
...amen to the last one!
It's sad that some issues are issues in the first place when they should be normal parts of life.
Love,
Janie

All so good ... deadnaming Twitter slayed me.
