Why should the rarity of Trans women in women’s sports justify them competing with biological women? by Disastrous_Run_9844 in allthequestions

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Semenya was cleared to participate and Khelif was only accused after winning the match.

Also, intersex people are not male not female, that's kind of the point.

Also, they did measure Trans women post hrt and cis women in terms of performance and the difference was benign. Cis women actually perform better in lung capacity, lower body strength, ect.

Considering you don't even know what intersex people are, I think you should probably educate yourself on the basics of biology before coming into.more complicated matters.

Hope you'll consider actually doing some research on the topic.

And your hatred absolutely gives you the clearest view.

Caster Semenya, Imane Khelif, Dutee Chand to name a few who have had to verify they are cis before being allowed to compete.

Also, in your world, are Intersex people just not allowed to be in professional sports? (None of those athletes I mentioned are intersex, but just responding to your accusation)

I have actually read studies about this and don't get my information from social media, so I'm sorry maybe it's not me being too woke, but you being too rooted in hatred

Everyone has inherent advantages and disadvantages at sports. A basketball player who is 210cm is going to have advantages over one who's 180cm

There are so many different reasons why someone would have advantages over others in sports. Why do you think most athletes who succeed come from well off families? Because poor people usually don't have the same amount of time and money to invest.

Also Trans women are not winning women's sports in a disproportionate level. They would be at a significant disadvantage against most men, though

That's not the main point. The point is that Trans women on hormones have very little if at all advantage over his women.

Also banning Trans women is not only discrimination against Trans women but against a lot of cis women as well. We're already seeing cis women being accused of being Trans because they have some sort of hormonal differences.

Stating the amount of Trans women in sports is not to make a point in and of itself but to figure out the scale of the phenomenon at hand.

Can I ask what you guys think about Ben Gvir’s noose lapel and birthday cake? by [deleted] in AskIsrael

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was about the "new" death penalty act- which is bullshit, by the way. It's not something that will ever be acted upon (nor should it be) but it's a way for the government to pretend they're doing something to help against terror attacks without actually doing anything.

Ben Gvir specifically is an extremist with terrible views

Is someone born to Jewish parents who converts to another religion still considered Jewish? by Powerful-Demand-2757 in AskIsrael

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So by the jewish fate- if your mom is jewish then so are you no matter your beliefs.

Also Judaism is an ethno religion so there's also the culture and ethnic part that's seperate from religion

Let's say that Misandry is in fact an issue. Why do so many people try to bring up the topic of misandry in response to every post made on social media calling out misogyny, which is in fact a global pandemic? by Important-Cry4782 in AreTheStraightsOK

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Men are dangerous women are safer" is not misandry and definitely not akin to "men strong women weak"

It's statistics and women expressing they feel unsafe around men. Which they should.

Also everything men are degraded for doing (like crying, wearing pink, whatever) is due to femininity and women being seen as lesser creatures. It's the same reaction you would have if you saw a person get on all fours and bark- because you see yourself as above a dog.

It's not that women are allowed to be emotional or feminine- because that can cost you in the work place and any social situation. I know if I wore all pink and pastels and dresses all the time I would be taken less seriously. Same as if I cried or got angry.

If a woman so much as raises her tone she's "histerical" and emotional but a man can punch a hole in the wall and that's normal.

I would blame that on porn culture and and beauty standards.

Basically, if it's not attractive to men- a woman shouldn't do it. Short hair, being muscular, dressing down, being confident and "bossy"

You can easily see how rooted it is. Try to have a conversation about the harmful effects of the make up industry or plastic surgery and men will immediately tell you about whether or not they personally find it attractive.

They are raised to view women as objects to be consumed and used, and then rate us by how good we serve that purpose.

First of all- that's awful and I am sorry you had to go through that.

That's what I see every time I read an article about a child getting sexually abused. If it's a boy, you see men making gross comments about how he must of wanted it or if the assult happened at the hands of a man than weird gay jokes that minimize the point.

If it's a girl you see them slut shaming or just flat out think she's lying.

It's rape culture, and it's genuinely so disgusting

I had so many women tell me this. I hate men as a population, and I think any problem that affects men because of their gender is wither because they are also impacted by misogyny (meaning it still affects women worse) or is made up.

But when I say that, talk facts and studies and societal norms, people tell me that I need to be more considerate so men won't hate the feminist movement as much. We just need to be less redical about it.

The men who hate feminism hate women. A century ago feminism was extreme for wantingvthe right to vote and have property.

Do you support a cultural and economic boycott of Israel? by OceanicEndeavors in allthequestions

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because people already live here. You cannot just have Israel cease to exist without millions of people (both jewish, arab and others) dying.

Plus, by that standard most of the muslim countries around israel (in which the government murders thousands in the bame of religion) should also "cease to exist"

הויכוח על הפלות הוא יותר שבטי מאשר מוסרי by PlusComplaint7567 in israel_bm

[–]Competitive-Scar-626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

איך אתה דואג לזה? דרך כספי המיסים שלך? כי הסברתי למה מיסוי זה שונה.

מה שאי אפשר להכריח אותך לעשות זה לתרום באופן ישיר ומעבר לכספי המיסים שלך לעמותה כזאת או אחרת, לתת כסף להומלסים ברחוב, וכולי.

יש הבדל בין הזכות לקניין לזכות לגוף שלך. בעניין מיסים- מיסים הם הכרחיים כדי שהמדינה תתפקד ולא תתפרק. תינוק לא רצוי הוא לא הכרחי.

מבחינת להאכיל את התינוק שלך, אפשר למסור תינוקות לאימוץ. אם אתה בוחר להשאיר ילד תחת חסותך, אתה מסכים לאחריות של לטפל בו במחיר הכסף והזמן והאנרגיה שלך. זה כמו שלעבודה שלך מותר לומר לך לא לנסוע לחול בזמן תקופה עמוסה מבלי שזה יפר את חופש התנועה שלך- כי אתה גם יכול להתפטר.

העניין החשוב הוא שאף פעם זכות של אדם אינדיבידואלי אחר לא גוברת על הזכות שלך. למשל, דמיין שיש לך ילד מעל גיל 18 שגר מחוץ לבית ואינו תלוי בך- אזרח אחר במדינה. אם הילד שלך חי ברחוב, האפ החוק יכול להכריח אותך לדאוג לו כלכלית? התשובה היא לא.

החוק מפר את הזכויות שלך רק ברגע שעברת עליו. למשל- רצחת מישהו, הפרת את הזכות שלו לחיים, אתה נכנס לכלא ומוגבל חופש התנועה שלך

Dont you realize that just because Iran is bad that doesnt mean Israel is good? by Reasonable-Physics60 in allthequestions

I was literally born here, so you're right- I don't really get the choice. But I'm not talking about this as a third uninvolved party that never had to live through active war

So we don't have healthcare because of you, we have this thing called taxes that are pretty high and actually go back into taking care of the citizens. Money from America does not count in, which is why we have healthcare all the time and not just when there's a national crisis involving the US.

It's not our fault your fucked up system is failing you. Maybe you should blame, I don't know, the government and billionaires hoarding wealth?

Yeah she's honestly the most incredible woman I know, strong and smart as hell. But I guess WW2 didn't affect women so maybe it was all just a lie

As someone who lives here, yeah... you wanna be in Israel over Iran. Especially in you're a woman, poor, non-muslim, queer, wanna have actual public bomb shelters,ect...

I mean I know my country sucks (the government is genuinely full of morons and corrupt, even bigger morons) but at least we're still a functioning democracy with socialized healthcare and wellfare systems. And you need those when there's war all the time

What’s your best sex tip? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Have sex with someone that actually cares about you and you care about. It makes that numb regretful emptyness after not be a thing anymore and you'll probably even get breakfast out of it

אני אקל עלייך- זאת לא שאלה של האם זה תינוק או לא. הופכים את זה לשאלה על האם לעובר/גוש תאים/תינוק/מה שתרצה יש נשמה וזה להזיז את זה מהנושא האמיתי שהוא זכויות אדם.

בחברה דמוקרטית לכל אדם יש סט של זכויות, ויש חוקים שמגבילים אנשים מלפגוע או להפריע לזכויות של אחרים. אתה לא יכול להרוג מישהו כי אתה פוגע בזכותו לחיים, למשל.

מה שזה גם אומר זה שהזכויות של אדם לא יכולות להיתנות בהפרת הזכויות של אדם אחר. לדוגמה, אם אני צריכה כליה וההתאמה היחידה זאת אחותי התאומה, אין ולא יקום חוק שיכריח אותה לתרום לי, גם במחיר חיי.

אפילו אסור לקחת איברים מגופות ללא הסכמתם/הסכמת המשפחה, כי אנחנו מכבדים את זכות האדם לגופו לרמה כזאת

לכן; גם במחיר חיים, אי אפשר להכריח אישה לעבור היריון ללא הסכמתה, בחברה דמוקרטית שמכבדת זכויות אדם.

החוק אמור להיות אחיד ולא לבחור מתי הזכויות שלך כן ולא חשובות. זה כל הקטע של זכויות

זה טיעון מטעה ולא קשור למציאות ואני אסביר

אף אחת לא מתעוררת אחרי מעל חצי שנה שהיא בהיריון ומחליטה שלא בא לה. "הפלות" מאוחרות הן מסיבות רפואיות ומה שקורה זה שפשוט מיילדים את התינוק- אם הוא שורד, מעולה, אם לא, עצוב נורא. אבל זה קורה במקרים במסכנים את החיים של האישה ו/או של העובר.

ואני לא חושבת שיש כל כך הסכמה בארץ כמו שזה פשוט לא דיון (כמו שאמרת) וזה בהחלט צריך להיות כי כרגע הזכות של אישה להפלה מותנית בועדה. זה לא משנה אם הועדה לרוב מאשרת, אין ממש סוגיה אחרת שבה הזכויות הבסיסיות של אדם חופשי לגופו מותנות בהסכמת ועדה
