happy trans visibility day angels

Caster Semenya is mounting a class action lawsuit against the Olympics for their patently discriminatory ban on trans and intersex athletes thecanary.co/global/world-a…

Almost 30 years after the nerves inside the penis were mapped, the same mapping has been completed on the clitoris. Cultural taboos about female sexuality have held back scientific study. The clitoris wasn't in standard anatomy textbooks until 1995. theguardian.com/society/2026/m…

women are becoming brain damaged from men choking them during sex

That’s because the world map is a lie. 🤣 Africa was drawn small for a reason. He who writes your story controls your imagination and your power

I studied the humanities to postgraduate level.

There have been 13 Olympics that have allowed trans women to compete in the female category if they meet the hormonal and physical requirements of the trans sports policy. The results over 13 Olympic games suggests trans women massively underperform in elite womens sports. Since the IOC has created a rule for trans athletes to compete in 2003, over 81,000 people have become Olympians. Out of those 81,000 Olympians a total of 2 have been trans women & one came dead last the other came 37th out of 42. There isn’t a single trans or intersex woman dominating her sport. Even Caster Semenya, the most famous, & most successful, intersex woman athlete doesn’t “dominate” her sport. Caster has won a total of two Olympic golds medals & holds no world records.  By contrast, Katie Ledecky has won a total of 9 Olympic gold medals and has broken 19 world records since 2013. Why is Katie Ledecky treated like a marvel, and Caster Semenya and transgender women are treated like mutants? There currently exists no evidence to suggest that trans women who elect to suppress testosterone (through, for example, gender affirming hormone therapy and/or surgical gonad removal) maintain disproportionate advantages over c_swomen indefinitely. More specifically, current evidence suggests any physical performance advantages  trans women do not fall outside the range observed among XX women after 2 years of testosterone suppression. transresearch.org.au/post/trans-wom… youtu.be/B8CzqxhZk7I?si…

It’s so transferable too - I see it applied regularly to so many different minority groups. Why? Because it’s an easy and effective way to provoke disgust in the absence of reason.

From the German magazine Lustige Blätter published in 1932.

Queerness is everywhere for those with eyes to see it

Misogyny and body dysmorphia start before a baby girl can even walk. It’s not just disgusting, it’s also evil.

yes, i support women in STEM. Women in Semiotics Theory (Critical) Existentialism & Marxism

Do not compromise on supporting trans women. Give no ground. Do not give nuance, because in the face of genocide, there is no nuance to give. The state is trying to make it uncomfortable to support trans women. We must make it more uncomfortable not to.
