Was discussing with a trans friend of mine were talking about vaginoplasty and the subject came up, but neither of us had an answer to it.
I kinda feel like you have to, at least a little bit, no ?

 :mindblown

this is an innocent question!

when you lose your dick, do you sometimes feel like you still have it or not?

how the fuck is this transphobic in the least?

it's literally a science question

imagine asking this in school and the teacher throws you bodily out of the room and recommends expulsion

Fucking amazing. As trans people become more accepted these kind of questions are also to be expected and a simple sign of interest. Dude was legit curious, I believe in another thread he also mentioned that he's on the spectrum.

But sure, makes perfect sense that replacing "women" with "people who have a uterus" is fine but being genuinely curious about bottom surgery is transphobic

So they've made the firmly misogynistic statement that men are better than women and always will be. Like it's a god damn cheat code.
I think it might be considered misogynistic to say that at the highest levels that men don't have a physical advantage in every sport. Otherwise we are calling women lazy (or too dumb to train correctly). Of course a talented trained woman is going to outperform untrained or untalented men.

We are comparing the extremes of the bell curve for men and women and, for any given sport, the combination of characteristics that make someone competitive at the highest levels is going to favor men (by varying degrees). It can sometimes be something super obvious like raw power (I can outproduce the wattage of women's olympic cyclists but I am nowhere near a pro in men's cycling) or other more subtle ways like height and build (they might not give me much of an advantage in a sport like cycling but might in something like swimming or basketball). Again, the bell curve extremes are going to be the optimal blend of every minor and major advantage an athlete can get for a given sport so unless transitioning addresses all of them then it really isn't fair to compete against those born female. The best way to handle this in sports is something I haven't figured out.

I do call bullshit on the banning of Caster (born and raised female regardless of testosterone levels) - basically a naturally physical outlier of outliers for women.

It is no surprise. Even the people who are in lock-step and agree with every single thing the trans members say are shouted down and publicly flogged by totally logical and sane users like vonocunt/messi77.

The ERA mods and TransERA taught the rest of the members that any topics regarding trans issues is a minefield likely to get you banned if you say anything other than some empty pro-trans platitudes. So why bother engaging?

I know the science is pretty clear that a lot of the advantages of testosterone completely disappear over time on HRT, but like what about being bigger, taller and longer because of male puberty?
Any suggested advantages are counterbalanced by negatives, which is an aspect few tend to think about when they tunnel vision so much on what advantages we may retain. Think of it like a medium car with a medium engine against a large car with a medium engine.

If they were really guided by the science, they wouldn’t be doing it. Disgusting anti trans people.

muscles mass, internal organ size, skeletal structure and the overall longterm effects of testosterone do not exist! :science
https://theconversation.com/how-world-sport-got-into-a-mess-over-trans-athletes-and-how-it-can-get-out-of-it-202188

Quote
One new development has been a sort of quietening on the scientific front. Although you still get the odd piece trying to make the claim that testosterone suppression can remove male advantage, most of the serious people in the debate have given up on this claim. A systematic review of studies showed that, even if hormone therapy reduces levels to those seen in women, strength, lean body mass and muscle area remained higher for at least three years. And we always knew that the skeletal advantages remained.

The activists focus on testosterone levels because it’s the one area where they think they can fashion a winning argument. A trans woman can get testosterone levels down lower than a man, and even lower than biological women. Therefore if we pretend that testosterone is the be all and end all of male/female sporting performance, a trans woman on HRT has removed all advantage.

I think that trans athletes should be allowed to compete with their identified gender until such time (if it ever happens) where they are dominating pro ranks (like sweeping podiums at the highest levels) so that the 'unfairness' would be practical and not just theoretical (which is why I don't like the current ruling although I think - as a scientist and a fan of sports - that trans women would theoretically have some advantages in some sports).
it's over for this chud

adjusting the physical measurements for a given sports bracket and creating new categories by weight or height if you have to, but not blanket bans like this one.

What a complete lack of understanding of the nature of men and women in sport.  Mike Tyson was a 5'10 heavyweight who destroyed people who towered over him in a sport that had no upper level weight limit.  Lionel Messi is, at most 5'7, and is the best soccer player alive at 35 years old.  It's a fucking fantasy that giving these guys estrogen will suddenly make them compete at a women's level.  There is something more to their dominance than simply testosterone levels, but endemic to male physicality.  Limiting sports by size misses the point.

I also need to know what these people envision the reality of sports to be. Like fuck all the amateurs amirite let's worry about it when the women's professional ranks, you know those ones you see on TV all the time, are dominated. Who cares if you're losing scholarships and other opportunities, it's not like your sport's professional ranks are dominated so what do you care. :mindblown

Speaking of sports and the genocide, there was an ad for Joanne's Folly during March Madness. Like, they realize this shit bombed and nobody played it right? Yet they're trying to run ads like it wasn't an absolute joke that discredited all of the right-wing gamers in the eyes of normies? I can just picture all the people laughing at bars around the country when that ad came on, especially when it claimed it was one of the "best selling games" you just know the masses were mocking Joanne's sheer desperation. :neogaf

So the basic assumption of this thread is that YouTube is deliberately reversing user settings to promote two irrelevant political commentators and one of the most popular podcasters out of some kind of ideological solidarity between YouTube/Google/Alphabet's executives and these three people (none of whom are alt-right)?

Of course someone who was a complete shut in and participated in no physical activity at all as a male child would understand the extreme physical advantages that men have over women. They have no reference point.

It's because they watch 5 hour video essay takedown videos on people like Jordan Peterson and Shapiro, and it's somehow more believable for them that YouTube is secretly fascist rather than the algorithm being unable to differentiate positive and negative videos.

I am a trans female in the literal middle of a full physical transition including surgery, so when the world advocates my termination yeah, not time for debate, you hear. And the funniest part is being trans is the least interesting or noteworthy part of me, though it's essential to my being. So I have no time for being reduced to someone else's debate point, especially if they are not trans or non binary.

I am a trans female in the literal middle of a full physical transition including surgery, so when the world advocates my termination yeah, not time for debate, you hear.

So I have no time for being reduced to someone else's debate point, especially if they are not trans or non binary.
I agree with Jessi, as someone in their mid-to-late 40's there is no debate: Jessi will not be able to compete in world ranking athletic events for females.

:cop User Banned (2 Weeks): Sexist Generalization
Quote from: Mr Swine
In Sweden the average height for males is 180cm and I’m 167cm so I’m below that. So basically I’m screwed since women want tall men and if I don’t have a fantastic personality or rich then I’m out of luck

I mean, this is the big problem right here.

Height and wealth problems can be overcome easily.

But if all you can talk about is trans rights, why Joanne (TERF bitch) is a cunt and anyone who plays Hogwarts Legacy should be guillotined, and obscure Japanese tiddy porn video games then you're shit out of luck in the dating game.

Shit, you don't even need to be that interesting. Just show some (genuine*) interest in her and what she likes and you're usually good to go.

*depending on your intentions, even this is optional

The world is so advocating for her termination that it is creating ever more believable ways to mask that she was born male.

Also, isn't she the one with multiple headmates?

Quoting OP here again to make sure they know their fucking privilege. I'm working two fucking jobs and slaving away with nearly zero free time to make barely 40k. And they just get that amount handed to them for the lulz. Fuck. Off.

I permanently fucked my back while working when I was 20, got fucked over in court, had to declare bankruptcy and blah blah blah but I would NEVER respond to someone elses good fortune like this (and todds a fuckin loser).

Yeah, I typically get a 15% bonus every year so long as my performance is satisfactory and the company is doing okay financially. We also get occasional smaller bonuses (like 1-2% of salary if my team meets certain milestones).

Sorry but going eat the rich over $45K is amazing. Same forum celebrates billionaire celebrities. But this random forum user is clearly the top .01% big pimping with IG models.

$45k is about what I make in 2 years so feel free to send me $700 for my rent and then do whatever after it, congrats on doing well within a exploitative and violent system that is Capitalism.
Wait until you find out what you'd make working slave labor for a totalitarian state in constant need of acquiring foreign resources without trade!

Should we address trans women as "scrotum persons" or "people who ejaculate now"? Also, who's stopping anybody from renaming the woman restroom to "people who menstruate restroom"? "Women's Tennis" becomes "Uterus Person Tennis", another problem solved. I get the feeling the online slacktivists and their braindead "allies" really didn't think that one through...

Never ceases to amaze me how a bunch of so-called progressives just constantly show the world that their only philosophy is envy.

It's not like you even need a tertiary education to make $100k+. Qualified tradespeople here make way more than that on average and that's not even counting the guys who work in fly-in, fly-out mining jobs.

If you are whinging about not making even $45k/year and you don't have a permanent disability (no, self-diagnosed autism is not a real disability), then I ask you what the fuck you were doing while the rest of us were getting an education or learning a trade?

I make about 50k Canadian a year fixing bicycles and last year i saved 20k living in the most expensive city in Canada. It's called learning a skill and spending wisely. Wait for the Steam sale and don't purchase day 1. Buy groceries and not Uber Eats delivery.

Good on anyone who works hard and earns their money. These fuckers are also living in their parents basement rent free. I've been on my own for over 15 years with zero family assistance. Fucking apply yourself.

I learned a new word today, serophobia.

Although I might argue that it is pretty reasonable to be afraid of HIV. Even though I am 100% sure that not wanting to get infected makes you a bigot these days.  :engel

It's because they watch 5 hour video essay takedown videos on people like Jordan Peterson and Shapiro, and it's somehow more believable for them that YouTube is secretly fascist rather than the algorithm being unable to differentiate positive and negative videos.

the most ridiculous thing about the "trans genocide!" is there's not much point to genociding .0001% of the population they make up. people for the most part don't care about things which do not directly effect them. so they don't care one way or the other about trans people because they never meet any, or have any bad experiences dealing with them.

such a small percentage of the population that you can go your entire life without ever having a single bad experience with any of them. then on top of their numbers being so miniscule, they mostly off themselves or get killed because they dated someone who didn't want anyone else finding out they were into trans women.

you don't kill off an ant colony that numbers in the tens and sticks to a small area in your backyard where you never notice them. you exterminate the colony that numbers in the thousands and infests your kitchen.

So you are a nobody.

She must be if she is BRINGING IT UP ALL THE TIME! If all your passion, time, and identity is dedicated to her being trans, and she herself says its the least interesting thing about herself... well... she said it.

Humble brag thread is still going wild

I'll give you a humble brag, I'm teaching your kids for 50k. We aren't comrades, in fact, I will willfully vote for a candidate that raises your taxes.

The mental gets called out -

Quote from: StrangeADT
You're the same guy that was disgruntled in the Amazon WFH thread, aren't you? Like every thread we have where people are more fortunate than you in some way, you’re on a crusade. Might want to take it down a notch. These threads are clearly triggering for you, so maybe avoid them?

An admin is forced to step in -

Quote from: SomeAdminNotNep
The OP shared his good fortune. If the title was something that was going to agitate you and result in you being hostile instead of offering productive feedback/discourse, why not just be a god damn adult and click that 'ignore' button and hide the thread.

There's a serious problem with people trying to bring down other people just because they, themselves, are in a hard spot. We should be better than that. There's nothing wrong in celebrating in someone else's success.

OP, congrats on the huge bonus. You've obviously earned it, as it's 50% of your base. Investing half of it in a long term investment may be some of the best long term advice. The rest? Go do something fun for yourself, partner, and/or friends/family.
