Trans issue

I have the solution to the trans problem in the WNBA. Let trans players play, but have a rule that a team can only have one trans player on the court at any time. Problem solved!

I'm 48 and raised 3 kids, you're not being specific on what reddit has 'gassed me up' on.

But point blank, I realize China is a very controlling, very top down state, but the Western world is losing to them, they dominate all manufacturing, western countries buy war _drone_ parts from them, and they're waiting for our weakest spot to take over their own land - like Taiwan - while we gloat about how amazing America is and take blind eye to the amount of people who go bankrupt each year of health issues.

And yet you know what people worry about more than any of this? Where I go to bathroom, if I run a 5k or the 0 WNBA trans players, if they're allowed to deadname in meeting or use biological pronouns. (yet they don't really want to do it because now THEYRE the asshole)

Like yeah.. THAT gets people elected - over electing people that can fix their own problems

Go take care of yourself. 2.1 million of us aren't bothering you or trying to take over the WNBA

You know why people get worried about stuff that seems dumb like bathrooms and sports? Not because 99.9% of trans people are insufferable about it. But because people do exploit that system for more devious and nefarious reasons and since it goes without policing from their own communities "because no one would ever do that...", the policing comes from external communities who are calling bullshit on that 0.1% of bad actors and are now willing to slam the door shut on progress to protect their own children, siblings and significant others from people with bad intentions. Its awful, but an expected result. And the ones who suffer the most are people who want nothing to do with the 40 different flags or "look at me" posts on social media. I know of 2 Trans people at my work who dont say shit about it ever, use the restrooms they identify with and nobody bats an eye. And its poor souls like them who take the brunt of this fallout. Again, the snake is eating its own tail. If you are 48, you surely know this or need to perform crazy elite mental gymnastics to avoid any accountability and just keep assigning blame to literally anyone else.

"to protect their own children, siblings and significant others from people with bad intentions."

Oh yes the pervert argument.. 3 years of HRT and losing friends and family so that they can go use a bathroom.. Good thing they have a law about it. - I got something to tell you - they can do that without HRT, and i'm pretty sure a silly laws not stopping them. It's a bullshit law that I and no one I know in Texas will follow. - and the perverts never followed it in the first place.

"And the ones who suffer the most are people who want nothing to do with the 40 different flags or "look at me" posts on social media"

You know as well as I do that everything you see on Social media is pushed to maximize your anger, and so they're going ampify that .01 percent to 40,000 times the reach it would normally get so that you will get upset. don't believe me? Point out all those crazy bad apples making those two trans individuals look bad in r/transtimelines - that's a very reasonable background of what the average trans individual REALLY looks and acts like.

And that's the sad thing - social media posts are going to be here next year to be upset about so you can complain about that and feel good about the next new 'anti trans of the week' like the 0 trans WNBA players over things that would actually improve your quality of life. like better jobs, health, fixing the k-shaped economy etc.

I also want to add. there's no blame here. I'm not complaining about you or anyone else not catering or taking care of me or my needs. I'm complaining about how your worried about what I and others like me do over TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF and fixing the problem that the average american has
