I mean, transness is endemic in Scottish schools, just like it is everywhere in society and has been probably since we evolved the ability to experience gender. The fact they know about it now is new, and that scares them.
Apparently, because a couple of medical payers (institutions) require transphobic fields (âsex assigned at birthâ) in their reimbursement systems, companies that develop systems for patient records have to include them in their software or users wonât be reimbursed by those payers. MFers!
The email, sent to party members, prompted criticism from several local Republican politicians, including Valdamar Archuleta. Archuleta, a gay man running to be the Republican candidate for U.S. Congress in Denver, has rejected the endorsement he earned from the state party just one day prior.
Another person MAGAts want dead, who is running as a Republican. I cannot understand the hubris. Also, GQP=Asshole, but that was already known.
A Forgotten Athlete, a Nazi Official, and the Origins of Sex Testing at the Olympics
In 1936, the Czech track star ZdeneĚk Koubek became world-famous after undergoing surgery so that he could live openly as a man.
Fuuuck these guys. They are a plague on the face of the earth and a pimple on the asshole of pediatrics. Sadly, they have succeeded in giving cover of pseudorespectability to a whole slew of other assholes out there. I hate them lots.
There are twelve candidates standing for election in my constituency. Eight of them want to strip me of my rights.
I hate TERF Island.
Julia Serano just posted a great article on the GC/TERF movement.
Lovely. We banned you from our organization, so you have no standing to sue since youâre not a member. Thatâs some real bullshit right there.
Yeah thatâs some bullshit circular reasoning that enabled them to avoid considering the case on its merits. Which tells me they werenât confident of the strength of their arguments. Itâs also rich for them to be claiming this as a win for women in sports since they won on a technicality that didnât consider the merits of Thomasâs case one bit. A technicality that probably wouldnât work in a court of law. They won because this was arbitration.
I just looked at the Labour Party manifesto, and found this transphobic dogwhistle in there
Labour is proud of our Equality Act and the rights and protections it affords women; we will continue to support the implementation of its single-sex exceptions.
The GRA reform section is also vague, except for the bit where it says the gatekeepers will remain.
Segregation is alive on TERF Island
I am very serious when I say you convinced me that Labour does not deserve my vote, a lot of the other issues they have are problematic, but being shown where they are actually (extremely) harmful is something I was unaware of, and I am very grateful for the illumination.
Now that I have calmed down a bit I would say that voting for the individual, not the party is OK. Thatâs why I say no votes for transphobes, not no votes for Labour.
The only problem is that my MP is Anneliese Dodds, Shadow Secretary of State for Women and Equalities, and a TER. I can not bring myself to vote for her. She betrayed me and I will never forget that.
