Not all of them. Not by a long shot. There are a lot of completely cool trans folk who consider this new emphasis in the culture on trans rights to be a perversion of the established medical processes involved in treating real gender dysphoria, something that's very, very rare but, nevertheless, requires treatment. The thing is, there's now this thing called "affirmative treatment" where everyone simply accepts that a person is the gender they claim, without question. This has substantially derailed the entire medical community that used to actually treat gender dysphoria.I am am sure lgbt considers this the right thing to do.
Not even all trans folks think this is right. I have a f>m coworker and he thinks it is super f'd up. If your genes and chromosomes didn't matter you would see as many f>m competing and winning as you see m>f.Not all of them. Not by a long shot.

This "Accept the patient's diagnosis of their condition" mantra is insane. It allows anyone to game the system.
The video you posted is an example of gaming the system in sports. But it's in other places, too, and often given the power of the state to enforce it. For example, in California and (iirc) Oregon, the state has decided you are whatever gender you say you are. Your word is law on the subject, no matter what. The result? Literally hundreds of men in prison have suddenly become trans women and have started being transferred to women's prisons. It's a complete cluster.
There are plenty of fine, sensible lgbt folk who understand that all this, this "gender dysphoria is fashionable" thing, is wrong and that there will be a backlash. They are not looking forward to it.
Well, I'm sure not volunteering for a visual inspection!it is a pretty simple test.
most of the time you don't even need a blood draw, just visual inspection. not a job i would sign up for though.
It wouldn't hurt your feelings if I nominated you for the job would it?hehe
There are some medical conditions where there is an xy chromosome and yet the person has the physical characteristics of a woman and most of these “women “ don’t know they are genetically men. Their lives can be ruined if their real sex is identified. Very difficult situation. Not just a sports issue. Most are identified because of infertility issues.Not even all trans folks think this is right. I have a f>m coworker and he thinks it is super f'd up. If your genes and chromosomes didn't matter you would see as many f>m competing and winning as you see m>f.
I think they should simply look at chromosomes. If you have a Y-chromosome, you are male for the purposes of sport and competition. END OF STORY.

Because that wouldn't be a fashionable trend, or political. Or one that some could display "wokeness" over.Given the rarity woth which those disorders occur, added to the irregularity of which your average person engages in competitive sports, this shouldn't be an issue.
If people want to have a genetic disorder because it is trendy, why don't they go back to pretending to have a gluten allergy?

You're too new here to know but when I was a more active poster, I frequently hit the per-post word limit and had to spread my essays over multiple posts.Thank you for taking the time on such a long post.
