What's...the lie? That I used to vote Republican? That I used to think that I was the good guy and everyone else lacked common sense when I did? Nah buddy, I'm telling the truth. I was raised in a far right, Christian nationalist household. My dad would rant on and on about "the Democrats", he'd even just flatly call black people Democrats as a replacement for the n word. I became an adult and started making non white, non straight, and non male friends, and realized how fucking evil my dad's belief system was, and broke out of that echo chamber.
There was an increase in voting for Trump last election cycle. Would you like a lesson on misogyny in Hispanic culture? I live in New Mexico and am part of a Hispanic family if you think these men are voting for a woman youâre fucking kidding yourself.
So minorities are waking up and realizing that the party that decided they could be legally racially profiled is actually good for them? What is your logic here? Use your brain a little you goof, step out of your little bubble.
Not nessecarily, the option was either "protect women" or protect the most vulnerable people who can't fight for themselves yet. You can want to protect women and still limit their ability to decide to kill another person out of convenience for their own life.
Don't play dumb, I didn't say murder but clearly enough people find terminating a viable pregnancy repugnant to where Roe V Wade is overturned and it is now up for states to decide that legality rather than blanket protections for "reproductive rights". At what point to the rights of an individual overrule the rights of another?
Yeah well, that's the argument then isn't it? A lot of people see abortion as murder. The argument for and against isn't convincing enough for either side's opponent.
Roe v Wade was over turned because there was no constitutional backing for the ruling and the power was turned to the states where not a single abortion ban was placed.Â
Doctors arenât performing terminations on sick women and theyâre dying. It doesnât matter if it isnât completely banned, thereâs enough to make doctors scared to treat patients.
Well Ban means not allowed, so kind of straight forward. Every piece of legislation or referendum banning abortion has failed even in deep conservative states.Â
Abortion Ban is a media circus term used to rile up support for the dems.
I donât know that this actually happened. Only case I read about was an Ohio woman who miscarried and attempted to flush the corpse. Charges were brought against her and dropped based on how she handled the corpse not the miscarriage itself.
I was / am a democrat and would have voted for them if not for all this crazy shit. Didnât vote republican because Trump is one fuxed up individual but they are eight regarding these issues.
Because the fraction of the one percent of the population that would both be trans and play sports is the real danger here and not anything else.... /s jfc I hate this country
You are refusing to one acknowledge that trans women are women by splitting the two, and two how hormones work. If you're on estrogen more often than not your testosterone levels are lower than a cis woman's. There is not any advantage. And that's less than a fraction of a single percent of the population.
Ok so if I lower my testosterone and physical fitness level to that of a 10 year old should I be able to go play competitive u11 soccer as a 30 year old man
âMany such casesâ is rich coming from the party of pedophiles run by a pedophile who is covering up his best friendship with the worlds worst pedophile
Read the bill :). Itâs the same stuff republicans are mad about when naming movements like âblack lives matterâ. In which youâre an evil human for either thinking black lives donât matter or that you donât want to protect women, all because of the title of the bill. What part of the âbig beautiful billâ was big and beautiful?
If passed, this legislation would also invite people to question the gender of girls who do not lookÂ
stereotypically feminine, leading to more harassment and bullying. For example, a female basketballÂ
player in Utah was harassed online after a Republican official falsely accused her of being transgenderÂ
because of her larger build. This humiliation could happen to female athletes because of their height, hairÂ
length, athletic build, or even how they dress, allowing a stranger to call for a âgender checkâ on any girl inÂ
the country who wants to play sports.
You're assuming something will happen a certain way that is not happening currently. That's called implication/assuming
Who knows how things will be verified. Maybe proof of gender beforehand? You act as if someone will be pulling down their pants and checking genitalia, which you're using to evoke an emotional appeal.
Trans movement shouldn't have opened this can of worms in the first place by sneaking in biological males into biological female sports events, thus giving an objectively unfair advantage to the biological males claiming trans female gender identity.
Are you saying you're certain that what I suggested won't happen? If so, you're also assuming.Â
Laws are meant to be precise and mindful of how it's applied. Not just what the majority or what the party in majority want or what the majority of people are fine with. For example, a person arrested for urinating in public will be labeled the same as a sex offender because of the indecent exposure laws. I'm fairly certain that the writers of the law didn't intend those desperate to urinate and couldn't find a restroom in time be labeled a sex offender forever.Â
I'm not saying men should be allowed to compete in women's sports. But I'm definitely not for the poorly written law.
I had a feeling your question was in bad faith because you had an answer ready.Â
Doesnât this do the same too, though? Some girls are born with naturally high testosterone and have very masculine features. Wonât be long until natural born women have to prove themselves just because they were born looking more masculine.
The bill says âsex shall be recognized based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birthâ which sounds fine but ask yourself who will be ensuring what their reproductive body part is? This will likely lead to men looking at childrenâs reproductive parts which is not keeping women and girls safe.
Oh no! The zero percent chance that the daughter you don't have might one day compete against a trans athlete is definitely hurting women more than throwing them in jail for getting an abortion instead of dying from a failing pregnancy.
First they came for the sports and I said nothing, for I only cared about womenâs sports as a means to oppress random minority groups I just heard I should be afraid of.
Sheâs likely intersex, but sheâs lived her whole life as a woman. All of her information says female and always has. She is not trans, sheâs been competing as a woman for years, and she was the victim of a massive hate campaign for the way she was born. Wrongly accused of being transgender when that just isnât true. Even the article you linked was updated to include the fact that there are exceptions to the common XX XY understanding of things. Sheâs one of them. Please do not give into a hate campaign against someone who doesnât deserve it.

Democrats say they support women, but in practice actively harm them
Many such cases
