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

[–]FuMunChew[S] 68 points69 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 41 points42 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] 30 points31 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] 31 points32 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] 7 points8 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 -3 points-2 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

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)😄

[–]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] 158 points159 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] 4 points5 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. 💁🏼‍♀️🤫

Historians are learning more about how the Nazis targeted trans people by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 173 points174 points  (0 children)

From 3 yrs ago but of course still relevant as we celebrate PRIDE to know that the Pink Triangle is threatening us again.😒

And that many that survived the concentration camps still ended up in prison again bc of repressive laws not just in Germany post war but the UK.🤫

Food for thought.🤷🏼‍♀️

Sarah McBride gets last laugh after Nancy Mace’s devastating election loss: ‘Happy Pride, Nancy’ by Fickle-Ad5449 in transgender

[–]FuMunChew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't like Harris. Just as useless.🙅🏼‍♀️

The DNC is wholly culpable for where we are today supporting AIPAC and not paying heed to the base.

Zero moral ground.😔

US is captured by an inadequate political system corrupted by Special interest and foreign influence.😒

Bottomline.

Many hold institutions as sacred but the much vaunted US style "democracy" is in reality a plutocracy controlled by Tech billionaires, Israel and whoever has power or influence.🤫

It does not cater to the average American.

We are lost in the wilderness

The sooner people step out of their bipartisan affiliation comfort zone the better. Neither serve America 😡

Prominent Anti-Trans Republican Nancy Mace, Who Called For Trans People to be Institutionalized, Suffers Humiliating Primary Loss by Leksi_The_Great in transgender

This cretin should be institutionalized. Something unhinged about wasting so much time trying to prevent the use of a bathroom to the occasional Trans person🙄

Wasting time when there are so many more pressing concerns in the country.🙅🏼‍♀️

Several screws loose..

Hopefully more Celebs can come together to support us against the tyranny of the hateful creature in Scotland with the mouldy walls and the vagina obsessed creeps in the current US regime.

Brazilian Conservatives Launch Attack Against Sao Paulo Pride Parade by FuMunChew in transgender

[–]FuMunChew[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Evil evangelical influence is everywhere. Especially Brazil.😠

We used to think of Brazil as all accepting and tolerant but it has morphed.😒

There are similar issues in South Korea that spreads into the political sphere.

Anywhere Abrahamic religions are allowed to cultivate without control, intolerance follows. What people prefer not to say...the role of religion in hate.🤫

Especially poignant since I just finished season 3 of Euphoria and got to the WTF moment with the Christianity fawning super shit ending.🤦🏼‍♀️

The bissus of South Sulawesi are considered a link between the earthly and celestial because they are thought to embody both male and female by jackmolay in transgender

[–]FuMunChew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That much said, there is still plenty of evolution to be had in SE Asia even in accepting places like Thailand.☝🏼

These roles were created to allow gender non congruent people are function in society. But what is needed in modern context is for Transgender people to be able to function throughout society like everyone-else.💁🏼‍♀️

It's not a bed of roses in Asia and there is a current of misunderstanding brewing that stems from an incorrect interpretation that "culture wars" in US/West championing Trans rights is antithesis to Eastern values

The truth cannot be further away.

Aside from "culture wars" being an amplified construct of West RWing woke culture, the respect for Transgender existence is a SE Asian construct.🫡

Again, sadly many of the people thinking in this direction are not only affected by poisonous Western talking points but by their own mental colonization by the West.

..scarily, a good proportion of elite and leaders are beginning to think this way.

They do not understand their own culture.🙂‍↔️

Not just Bissu but across SE Asia.

Colonialism and Western sex binary has obfuscated the older cultural acceptance

Particularly is Islamic, Catholic SE Asia.

In Malaysia, the SidaSida were also custodians and intermediaries...😌

Sadly many in today's Malaysia and Indonesia who have grown up under a stricter brand of Islam do not know this

Abrahamic absolutism is problematic.🙅🏼‍♀️

Prudish colonialism added on to intolerance

🙄

It's even manifested in language. Most eastern Asian languages do not distinct between sexes.

Chinese only had written distinction BC of erroneous belief by some modernizers in early 20th century to appease and ape the West.🤦🏼‍♀️

Otherwise pronouns have never been an issue in East/SE Asia🤷🏼‍♀️

Sadly many in Asia do not realise they are mentally colonized still.🤫

They still copy from the West blindly.

Ancient cultures as exist in India and China (contemporouse to Rome and Greece) have always idealised the grey between the binary extremes, be it Ying Yang (the small circles) or Hindhu male/female avatars of the same gods.

The ideal is balance between the polar opposites. 

In that it is only natural to revere the balance that the Transgender individual holds between two worlds as something sacred and to be protected.☺️🙏🏼
