    Hi! You seem to be under the impression that I’m going to engage with your argument fetish, but you’re going to have to find someone else to take the bait. I do not engage in debate in which minorities are fine to remove from sports, and unfortunately for you since I have been on the internet for more than five minutes I am not swayed by claims of “just wanting to understand.” If you’re so concerned about understanding the issue of trans people being singled out for exclusion from sports you can RTFA ❤️

      Well, no worries, before you are at any danger of having an argument or productive conversation with someone, you will first need to learn how to form a coherent point of view. Nobody has said anything about excluding minorities from sports. Sorry if that’s not what you are claiming, but I read your last comment several times but was unable to figure out what you were hoping to convey. I’m not sure if the issue was a poor combination of mistyping and autocorrect or what, perhaps you’re just sleep deprived or otherwise inebriated. 🫶

        literally everyone is talking about whether or not trans women should be allowed in sports. gtfo with your disingenuous rhetoric

          That actually isn’t what they are talking about. What they are talking about is whether transwomen(genetic men) should be allowed in genetic women’s sports. I’ve yet to see anyone saying that genetic men should not be allowed to play in genetic men’s sports. There is no exclusion from sports happening to any minorities here.

          In case you are genuinely interested in this topic and not just mindlessly latching onto a cookie-cutter point of view, here is a different way to think about this issue that I have seen make some headway with people in your situation before:

          If LeBron James came out as identifying as a 10 year old boy, would you want him playing against your son? Why or why not? If you answer this question honestly, it just may be enlightening. I won’t respond any further unless I see genuine effort on your part.

              Give a reasonable alternative if you don’t like it. Unless, that is, your strategy depends on trying to pressure people into not expressing ideas in a clear way.

                  Well, I assumed you didn’t have anything just judging by the fact that you never seem to contribute anything of use.

                  “Down with cis” - this is you. Please try to find anything in any comment I have made that is hateful and directly quote it. I love cis and trans people and have said nothing to the contrary. The same can not be said about you, unfortunately.

                    Down with cis!!!

                    lmao bro that is a Tumblr meme phrase. Look it up to get the full connotation. It is hilarious to me that cis people are actually seeing this as hate speech. It’s like white people complaining about reverse racism.
