    I would like to say that’s true for every parent but I know that it’s not, but I’m assuming that it’s true for most!! The, “We’re Here, we’re Queer, We’re coming for your Children!” Chant rubs me the wrong way as a parent & grandparent. I googled & The first example I found was from that thing...

    I found the above links just before the end of the work day while out for a smoke. Thought it would be worth learning about and discussing. Know little about it at this point, but when my Son was younger (he’s 35 now) if shit was happening in the school with my child behind my back with a...

    I think we’re in the same camp here, and Serryah & I will also have to agree to disagree on many points here. You threw the question at me below so I’ll put the same one back to you. What automatically makes a Trans-Woman a woman. So if someone doesn’t believe what you believe, then they’re...

    Tough calls above. Same with the other side. Zero flexibility means zero compromise. Two different issues. Children and hormonal blockers or surgeries is one of the issues. The other is transgender athletes. It’s not a you can’t complain about one if you don’t agree with the other in a black...

    I’m sure there are going to be people who had a $2000/month floating interest, rate mortgage…that are now playing $3500/mo that are going to be using the food bag because they have to in order not to be homeless.

    To you, men in women’s sports & trans women in women’s sports are to different things. Are they two different things to the women in those sports? Trans women aren’t men to you, but they aren’t necessarily woman either just because they say they are. To the woman powerlifters, what’s the...

    Why are there no (as far as I know) transgender men in the NHL, or CFL, or NFL, or NBA, or MLB? I’ve yet to hear (or notice, anyway) any man or woman complaining about Transgender Men in men’s sports for some reason, and it’s not pussified men not complaining about this as far as I know. (The...

    Kudos to Madge Syers who competed in an a men’s skating event 120 years ago and got a Silver Metal. Good on her! Seriously! Madge wasn’t in a Speed Skating event where limb length and outright explosive physical strength would have been a monstrous advantage….but it’s a huge accomplishment on...

    Does someone have to be “Anti-Trans” to be against men in woman’s sports? (I don’t see where Chess is even relevant, as it’s in a different camp that physical competition or combat sports) I don’t think I’m “Anti-Trans” but someone else might see me that way I guess, but I don’t think men...
