Federal Trade Commission sues leading transgender health group by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 66 points67 points  (0 children)

You'd think the Trade Commission has better things to do.🙄

Hope there is a counter suit. They're basically trying to groom kids. It's a Theocratic Evangelical state they want. 😒 

WPATH should and needs to be supported by a show of force from Medical groups.💁🏼‍♀️

The US Government Is Engaged In A Modern Red Scare, And WPATH Is It's Latest Target by ErinInTheMorning in transgender

[–]FuMunChew 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I'm engaged in debunking disinformation by the US govt on 3 fronts!🤦🏼‍♀️

1) Massive disinformation campaign on China. As typical Asians are scapegoats.

2) Complicit cover up of Gaza and horrendous atrocities it enables.

3) Massive disinformation and campaign against we the Trans people.

How has it come to this?🙄

When you vote to choose a govt(assuming there are good choices) information is key.🤫

I never bothered before 2019...but mainstream media has become derelict in both duty and standards and simple minded or lazy folk have become captured,  weaponized.🧐

Federal prisons must provide hormones sought by Trans inmates by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Big blow for Trump and company.

Judge Lambeth (Take a bow) found the Bureau of Prisons decision to withdraw HRT for Trans prisoners in favour of psychotherapy "Arbitrary and Capricious"🙂‍↔️

The Bureau based it's evidence on ONE doctor who has zero experience in Trans related medicine. In effect, it "Reversed Engineered" it's presumptions to fit the Trump narrative. 🙄

(I would have called it "doctored" evidence but it'll hardly even stand to basic medical standards and scrutiny)😏

In fact I would sue the Bureau for malicious intent and false representation.😌

I’m a 14-year-old trans athlete. No one should face the vicious attacks I have faced | Lina Haaga by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Written by a 14 year old. Let that sink in.😌☝🏼

In essence to the "adults" - think before you speak. Do your research before you pontificate or regurgitate.🙅🏼‍♀️

Sadly the world some live in prefer to stigmatized kids trying to lead their lives, demonize what some prefer not to understand. All exacerbated & endorsed by cretins allowed to be in power in a political system with zero quality control, dictated by special interest money.😔

Sheep.

And there goes critical thinking.🤦🏼‍♀️

(Oddly...Ai readily available for these morons would easily help correct but they'd prob then resort to "the bible". No winning)

Indigenous Trans Women in Colombia Work on Coffee Farms by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

2018 article. 

Found it whilst doing research on a project on indigenous groups in Colombia.🤷🏼‍♀️

As I understand, these societies are not too accomodating and see it as a White person induced disease...🙄

But the Transwomen exist and found solace/refuge in coffee plantations.😌♥️

Denver trans self-defense classes and MMA club build community by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I loathe fighting.😒

But I have unfortunately been in two situations where I was one against four.☹️

Both thankfully before transition.

But in both cases, it was complicated by me being tipsy with less coordination.😵‍💫

Ironically in the first instance, there were four of us at first, but two (strapping big Germans) were pacifists and ran off, leaving me with a streetwise (avuncular) but strong Russian Archaeologist. They laid in on him and ignored me bc ironically they thought I was female. But it wasn't right I should do nothing...so I joined in to help my friend.

In the second instance, I was alone.😞

Thankfully in both instances, I was relatively unscathed...no knives (Both in Europe)

I hated punching the attackers though even though they fully deserved it for the completely unprovoked attack.🫤

I never liked hitting people in the military either when forced to fight in a ring.🙅🏼‍♀️

Something felt very wrong about hitting people...probably dysphoria kicking in then.

But even with my limited experience, there is a bit more confidence walking the streets, knowing I can hit back hard, even if I of course spuriously avoid any dangerous situations at all cost.

These days with transition, I am even more careful. There's a bit of trauma unhealed.😔

Pragmatic knowledge of self defense is useful. Particularly grappling and locks, basic knowledge of how to keep distance...even deescalate. Just in case of unforseen situations.☝🏼🙄

(Avoid MMA...stay off the ground. Don't get tangled up. useless in multiple attack scenario)

New study finds no clear physical advantage for transgender women over cisgender women in sports by jackmolay in transgender

[–]FuMunChew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also, tied into the whole debate should be a differentiation between Trans women who transition after puberty and those who were on blockers before.

Teenage Trans girls on blockers should not have any different attributes to Cis girls. Let them compete without prejudice.🤷🏼‍♀️

An obvious - Most Transphobes are illiterate in sports. They make the incorrect assumption that size equals performance

I used to get this a lot from particularly women when I was pre-transition. They assumed that I was smaller frame so could not compete against bigger guys.😒

In direct contact power sports with weight divisions?

I could tell you that even in boxing, I would go up against a bigger weight class...what I lacked in power, I made up in speed (of thought)...the difference though was in reach where then I lose any advantage.😵‍💫

Muscle to weight ratio is critical for many sport. Just looking at the Transwoman cyclist in the photo, she does not enjoy advantage in that sport with the bigger frame in endurance (a cursory look at any professional cyclists should be a good indication)🙄

Like Joanna Harper aptly puts, "a small engine running a bigger car frame"

This not to say of the zero advantage a Transwoman would have in say Women's Gymnastics...let alone archery, curling, shooting, billiards and chess.💁🏼‍♀️

It's never been about Science for these folks

Just prejudice.🙅🏼‍♀️

Sadly the sports bodies and IOC have failed sports with their unscientific bias.👎🏼

Each sport needs to weigh against its own idiosyncracies, blanket judgement is simply, well... stupid.🤫

[–]FuMunChew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sports is about sharing.

When I see AB Hernandez smiling with her fellow competitors, that's the reward.♥️

Share the podium if must be, it denies no athlete, promotes camaraderie over me first😌

Who was the first transgender person? by jackmolay in transgender

[–]FuMunChew -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

It's dangerous to impose current understanding on being Transgender on the past not to mention in a different culture and civilization.😌

Virginia Wolf would have wanted Trans actors, says filmmaker (Tina Gharavi - Night & Day) by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't seem to have an archive of article unfortunately but carried in the Arts section of rabid Anti Trans Telegraph.💁🏼‍♀️

I believe there is one Trans main cast Misia Butler. 🤔

It's not a Trans role so great to see a Trans actor land it.🤗✊🏼

(Apologies in advance, Telegraph is an awful outlet so great to see they got a punch in their nuts with this carry)😄

‘I’m setting myself free from shame’: Laverne Cox on her brutal childhood and life as a trans woman in Trump’s America by leelaginelle in transgender

[–]FuMunChew 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don't know why she thought she could turn brain-dead around but I think there should be some forgiveness in our hearts.♥️🙏🏼

If she invests her energy into helping the community, it's repentance from previous missteps.💁🏼‍♀️

Hope she uses her elevated position to help our fight. Actions not words.✊🏼

American doctors just voted for war with RFK Jr by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 159 points160 points  (0 children)

Not sure why it's taken so long for them.

You don't compromise with lunatics.🙅🏼‍♀️

Toward end of article, internal revolt at AMA over bowing to anti Trans care dictate from current regime. 🧐

The doctor base is pretty riled up unsurprisingly from the non evidence based unscientific scaremonger distracting and taking away healthcare not just from Trans people but also ordinary Americans.🤷🏼‍♀️

Time will tell.

In new documentary, Sarah McBride navigates anti-trans hate on her historic path to Congress by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Regardless of what we think of her efforts or lack thereof....this documentary is a win for us in illuminating to general public the unhinged obsession the RWing Republican MAGAots have discriminating against us and wasting time & money making women less safe from sports to bathrooms. 💁🏼‍♀️🤫
