    I thought you said Biles only apologized for her personal attacks on Gaines, and not her stance on trans athletes. Gaines here, is talking about Biles' stance on trans athletes (to wit, Biles did NOT apologize for).

    Elon says that Trump is in the Epstein files.

    Or a trans playing high school field hockey in Tulsa.

    Tim is doing exactly what @TBayXXXVIIaccused him of in the trans softball thread. We were talking about warning shots, Tim lost yet another discussion, so now he's trying to move the goalposts to journalists and doctors. I'd ask him if this means he concedes he has nothing on the murderous shooting sprees at the aid stations, but he wouldn't respond. 200 journalists! Or, maybe 3? And maybe 1 of them wasn't working directly with Hamas.

    Brianna Wu: If I were in charge of the trans movement...

    jerryskids replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    Well, she's old school trans, from before the social contagion. Also, it's pretty clear from her tweet, and other things I've heard her say, that she is very concerned that people like her -- people with gender dysphoria who have medically transitioned -- are at risk of losing access to the medicines they require because of the things mentioned in the tweet: social contagion, transing the kids, men in women's sports and safe spaces.

    Sean Mooney replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    What makes her influential? Maybe she doesn't know that trans people are an existential crisis to the country?

    The Real timschochet replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    Though I disagree with your view here it makes me think there may be room for compromise. But I’m not sure. So I would like you to be specific about the only aspect of this that truly matters: what kind of legislation that in any way touches on or restricts trans would you support? What kind of legislation would you oppose?

    Brianna Wu: If I were in charge of the trans movement...

    jerryskids replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    I'm talking about the increase, not trans in general. I have posted multiple times that I believe there are a small subset of trans people who have gender dysphoria. To that end, it disappoints me that a lot of folks (including this site) don't agree, and just jump on the "boys can't be girls" wagon. I think Brianna presents an excellent path to getting to an accurate and reasonable place. Which is basically where we were 10-15 years ago, when sanity ruled the day. But @The Real timschochetchooses to believe political groups instead of reality, and @squistion seems to believe whatever Kyle Griffin says, but he knows best.
  8. TimHauck
    I know you will claim I’m arguing semantics but I think your commentary mischaracterizes her comments a bit. Your comment: the trans movement is largely a social contagion Her quote: The rates of trans children have exploded and much of this almost certainly social contagion Seems to me she is only talking about the “increase” in the number of trans folks, but it sounds like you’re talking about trans folks in total. Can you clarify? Do you think kids being trans as a whole is a “social contagion”?

    Thank the OP for the laugh, he edited "transexual movement" to "trans movement" and figured no one would notice.

    The Real timschochet replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    Thanks Jerry, but I don’t care. To me it’s like having a Jew deny the Holocaust. Some have (famously, Bobby Fischer) but that doesn’t take away the truth of the event. Kanye West has argued that American chattel slavery was a good thing. Shall I consider his comments on the subject to be more merit worthy than others because he is a black man? I don’t. I didn’t have any personal opinion on the question of the explosion of the number of trans people until quite recently. What I read, from most medical experts and psychiatrists and psychologists, is that it’s a result of people feeling free to express their innermost feelings, that the same numbers were always there but hidden. This intuitively made sense to me. I also read a minority of opinion that it was a “social contagion.” Since this opinion was mostly spread from people whom I judged to be bigoted against trans (and before that bigoted against homosexuality) I treated this minority opinion with a great amount of skepticism. I still do. But in the end I regard this as a scientific question, equivalent to the best way to land an airplane. When the majority of experts change their opinion on this subject I will as well.

    No. It was relevant to the sentence I quoted, which Wu wants to “change the conversation to.” I had never heard of Wu before today, but she is described by you as “influential in the trans community.” And she has had multiple posts showing her disdain for Gaines, who is probably one of the most well-known people that is “dehumanizing to trans people.”

    EternalShinyAndChrome replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club

    It's not just trans, but I would say a good portion of them are. Let's say 40% or more. I mean, they're mentally ill. There is no way you're NOT considering your mind is fighting your biology. They'll never be able to change that and the fact that they THINK they can is clearly someone who is not stable. What they are is gay, not trans. Trans is just a term to hide from the fact that they can't admit they're gay.
  13. TimHauck
    So all trans folks are disgusting and violent?
  14. TimHauck
    Speaking of that sentence, for the people that claim Riley Gaines “just wants men out of women’s sports,” here is Wu’s opinion of Ms Gaines: https://x.com/BriannaWu/status/1817169816626553245 I appreciate the increasing frequency of these comments from Riley because it gives away her game. Yes, it’s reasonable to have a public policy discussion about trans people and women’s sports. But her political project doesn’t stop there. She’s disgusted by LGBT people and wants to eliminate them from public life. This is, of course, anti-American and anti-democratic.
  15. TimHauck
    No arguments here. I think this forum could particularly learn from this sentence: Then we could change the conversation to what it should actually be - why are people so dehumanizing and cruel to trans people?

    With a thread like this it is like shooting fish in a barrell. Note that he edited her quote from "transexual" to "trans" in the OP title. Wonder why?
  17. jerryskids
    Another trans thread! Brianna Wu is a transgender woman (born male) who is influential in the trans community. She made a post on X recently that I strongly advise be read by @The Real timschochet, @squistion, and anyone else who remains under the illusion that the trans movement is not largely a social contagion, that just saying you are woman should not be sufficient to get into women's safe spaces, or that biological men should compete in women's sports.

    A straw man argument is a logical fallacy where someone misrepresents an opponent's argument to make it easier to attack or refute. Instead of addressing the actual argument, the person creates a distorted version and argues against that instead. You think she’s just “critical” of trans, lol. She thinks they shouldn’t exist.
  19. EternalShinyAndChrome
    Kind of like when you're critical of trans you're transphobic. GTFO.

    Squissy taking another L No, drag queens are not necessarily transvestites. While both involve dressing in clothing typically associated with another gender, drag is a performance art, and a drag queen is someone who performs in that style. A transvestite, on the other hand, is someone who cross-dresses for personal reasons, not primarily for performance. Many drag queens are cisgender men who do not identify as transgender, according to Advocates for Trans Equality.

    I never said she was lying, I speculated maybe she is. I did say that they hooked up before and it was true. The arranged to hook up in the bathroom prior to the rape. You were saying that the rapist dressed up like a girl so he would be allowed into the bathroom as part of the trans policy which was completely wrong. He raped her. It was a terrible thing that happened to her. No woman, especially a child should EVER have to endure that trauma. And here you are, wishing it would happen to my children. I can't think of anything worse to say to another father. You're shameless.

    WASHINGTON -- The University of Pennsylvania on Tuesday modified a trio of school records set by transgender swimmer Lia Thomas and said it would apologize to female athletes "disadvantaged" by her participation on the women's swimming team, part of a resolution of a federal civil rights case. The U.S. Education Department and Penn announced the voluntary agreement of the high-profile case that focused on Thomas, who last competed for the Ivy League school in 2022, when she became the first openly transgender athlete to win an NCAA Division I title. The department investigated Penn as part of the Trump administration's broader attempt to remove transgender athletes from girls' and women's sports, concluding the university in Philadelphia had violated the rights of female athletes. Under the agreement, Penn agreed to restore all individual Division I records and titles to female athletes who lost to Thomas and send a personalized apology letter to each of those swimmers. https://share.google/rGvEGaPd7npZffJL9

    It isn't relevant but they desperately keep trying to label him as some sort of crazy trans shooter, but all they have go on are on a couple photos where his hair is longish.

    @MDC needs a DNA test, not his Trans Dog.
