Yeah I really don't get where the "everyone thinks kids who don't conform to their assigned gender roles should transition/must be trans" stuff is coming from. I see the occasional person saying similar stuff about fictional characters, but not actual children.

And I can't even imagine someone transitioning from male to female solely to gain an advantage in sports, what with bs like cis women having gotten banned from sports for having naturally high testosterone, not to mention the absolutely abysmal pay female athletes receive compared to their male counterparts.

There are countries that already put their athletes through some illegal shit just to get advantages in competitions so I can absolutely see some regimes making male athletes start to transition to win female competitions.

And in this supervillain hypothetical situation, the trans people are still the bad guys because....???

(Anonymous) 2020-07-04 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
NAYRT--they probably wouldn't even be trans, though, except in the case of looking female-bodied and wanting to be male-bodied again. I guess that'd be one way for more cis men to empathize with trans people, but yeah, a government pulling that shit would totally be made up of supervillains. Not that there isn't a lot of that going around these days.

Aryt didn't say they would be?

If the subject at hand is "we shouldn't allow trans women to participate in sports because what if evil people force men to transition so they can win", the problem entirely ceases to be about trans issues, so bringing up this hypothetical becomes nonsense.

I never said they would be.

It's not people transitioning just to get advantage that's the problem. It's trans women who have already transitioned expecting to be able to compete in women's leagues and crying discrimination if not allowed. Like fuck off already.

And your sample size here is....

(Anonymous) 2020-07-04 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, no? Why should they fuck off?

Why is their advantage "unfair" but a biological cis woman born exceptionally tall, strong or broad is not an unfair advantage?

Also, you do realize the incredible amount of harassment and hatred lobbed at trans women athletes, right? It's not like male athletes are transitioning just so they can sweep women's sports, and btw, that's not the case even with trans women athletes that are competing right now.

It's additionally interesting to me that a lot of people in this thread seem to think it's feminist to believe that people born male are naturally better at sports despite the shape or physiology of their actual bodies.

I'm the parent of a gender non-conforming 8 year old, and you bet your ass that we've gotten pressure about whether he's trans or not.

The kiddo knows that transgender is a thing that you can be, and we've had a number of talks about whether he particularly feels that he is transgender or would prefer to dress and be referred to as a girl. Every time, he looks at me like I'm stupid and patiently explains (in my own words, back to me) that he's a boy who likes unicorns and purple and has long hair and nail-polish and that there is nothing wrong with that. He's right... but he shouldn't have to explain that to nosy neighbors and school principals and nurses.

Boo fucking hoo. Trans kids get bullied, harassed and worse every fucking day for how they present and what they wear. If we hadn't created a world that was so unwelcoming to trans children nobody would be asking your kid about it now.

Have you had follow-up talks with him about how he should stop looking at you like you're stupid for telling him it would be okay if he were actually a she? I think the fact that he thinks you're stupid for giving him the suggestion says something, mm, not good about you or outside sources he's been influenced by in thinking about trans people.
