Consider also that receiving HRT requires you to convince your doctor you are trans, and Informed Consent comes into play. They would likely be informed of all of the side effects.
I would say that the 10% of cis men who wouldn’t experience dysphoria in your hypothetical weren’t cis in the first place. In fact, anyone who transitions to “own the libs” is probably just trans and scared.
If it’s to prove a point then they won’t pass the regulatory body, like when Ben Shapiro tried to get a bunch of mediocre male basketball players to pretend to transition to try to get them into a women’s basketball tourney. It didn’t work, because they were obviously not trans. It isn’t even difficult to tell, because they obviously don’t have the relationship with their gender trans people have. It would be hard to fake. And none of them were on hormones anyways so they wouldn’t have qualified in the first place.
Estrogen supplementation on a male mind will cause gender dysphoria, so I don’t think they would be able to keep it up for very long. But say one does, why would they knowingly make themselves infertile with no benefit? I know I had to weigh fertility and HRT and only went with HRT because of the mental health benefits that come with it. A cis man pretending gets no benefit, but does get:
That is true.
Did I miss the sarcasm or do you really think ANYONE would/could transition just for supposed gains in sports, let alone EVERYONE? They would have to take hormones that make them permanently infertile for over a year and proceed with a social transition all to convince a regulatory body that they are trans (and all of this would be incredibly difficult on their non-trans minds), and they would lose an incredible amount of muscle mass which typically athletes… Wouldn’t want
Con: Literally every single professional athlete will become trans so they can win at sports.
Please tell me I’m missing the sarcasm here 🙄🤦♀️
What experts do you think are lying about trans people?
All it would take is supplementing hormones at several points in development so that it develops its gonads and mind the other way.
Reverse image search shows the image is over 5 years old (old r/funny thread about it) so not AI generated
Accelerationism isn’t a good look
Agreed, and we did prior to Roe v Wade being repealed
The Montana State constitution has a guaranteed right to privacy, which is what Row v Wade used to guarantee abortion access. It would take a Montana constitutional amendment to change it in Montana. Scotus has no authority over the matter.
Thank you for your service, Twitterenoclast 🫡
This is his one strength. He can dog whistle as much as he wants because he always carefully chooses his words to add some sort of plausible deniability or innocent interpretation. So his base hears what he can’t fully say out loud yet and the media has to carefully tiptoe around interpreting it or lose credibility to his base
Socialism is inherently democratic
Yup, just wait for one single unflattering image of herself that shows something mildly androgynous about her and we won’t hear the end of it.
Good thing Proton is a nonprofit then 😊
The “staged” conspiracy theory (not saying it is right or wrong) relies on the assumption that he was not actually shot (either teleprompter glass cut him or he “bladed” or used a blood pack to get the bloody face effect); that the shooter was making it look like an attempt but only ever intended to shoot into the crowd. Again, not endorsing this idea, but it is one of those things that is hard to put past Trump. I personally am anticipating this to either die or get much bigger once he removes the bandage and we see his ear in 4k. The images from the event showed so little damage it’s hard to tell.
Funny, the title made me think of one of the kids in the summer camp I’m helping run who is herself homeless. Then I saw Kalispell and Flathead and, yep, that is where most of our students are from…
The majority of those are nothing burgers. They shut down their dedicated password app when they integrated its features into the browser, they shut down their encrypted file sharing tool when they realized it was being used for very nefarious uses, they shut down Positron and it’s affiliated projects because nobody started using it over Electron… and a lot of the rest are extremely niche (like viewing websites in 3d, cool but not all that useful).
