Analysis of Transgender Rights Debate | Dylan Mulvaney and Bud Light Controversy

[@sarasvensson6026]

The disdain in Dr. Grande's voice every time he says "TikTok" adds years to my life.

[@Lesrevesdhiver]

BEAUTIFUL! What an awesome way of agreeing with something!

[@moester75]

@Sara In my humble opinion we need to just take Tik Tok away from the celestials and just have it run by Americans without any Chinese involvement of any kind. That way the Americans that depend on the revenue they get from their silly Tik Tok videos won’t lose any food off their table. Why not?

I’m very grateful for this video and it wasn’t lost me that he described gender roles as a “social construct”. People should absolutely question what it means to be a woman and a man and confusion and resistance to unfamiliarity does not automatically equal bigotry and hate.

[@krysivory493]

...so, what does IT mean, THEN?

[@magovenor]

Only the ignorant would want people to question what it means to be a woman. No male born, once reaching puberty, could have a period, carry a child to birth, or produce milk throughout the day from their breast for that child. Not saying that every woman carries a child, produces milk, or have a period every month. But these are far from the global standard of women.

[@muttlee9195]

Penis or vagina that’s what IT means to be a man or a woman.

[@yeez13]

It means Apathy, or otherwise a preoccupation to things that matter more to someone than some politicized talking points 🤷🏽‍♂️ I would also like to add that it’s perfectly reasonable to not be up in arms over something that doesn’t “mean anything to me/you personally” (as the clout chasing Redditors and Trans-Trenders like to say) since it’s already pretty dubious how much of this actually matters considering that it’s all ESG Astro-Turfing of culture/Overton Window shenanigans. When the people who hold all the assets/pensions are trying to force societal changes in bad faith, be skeptical of the celebrities/influencers who want to “be on the right side” 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@MrAzazel666]

He doesn't have an answer for you, because his ridiculous response has no possible answer other than the negative. Mr Carlton didn't think this through before commenting because of his extremely low IQ and zero common sense.

Thank you so much for mentioning the unfairness in women's sports! Important issue that I wish was addressed more seriously.

[@scurvofpcp]

Careful now, if you are critical of anyone who has experienced male puberty competing against women in women's sports that can get you labeled as far right. But with that out of the way, I find it odd how the movement that started to help a vast number of minorities (and really anyone who has had a police encounter without having a spare 50k in the bank to afford a lawyer ) has been transformed slowly into this.

I'm a detransitioner, I'm so glad I feel better now and I'm okay with my body. Starting to transition was the worst decision I've ever made but I'm glad I stopped before getting any surgeries. Edit: I realize I need to explain a few things: I'm from Europe and were I'm from before starting hormones or getting surgery you have to get approved in therapy, I was never approved but I was closed. My therapist wanted me to start them and she also told me that she would get money after I got surgery (I swear it happened, if you don't believe it I don't care). She told me surgeons and therapists have a "deal" and they make a lot it money. I was 19 so I wasn't a kid. I believe I felt like I wanted to transition because I have been assaulted and that changed me. I was also not sober and wasn't clear mentally. I've always been a supporter of the community and this is definitely not being in denial. I was confused and always under too many meds. I'm now in rehab and about to graduate from college. I'm a woman and I'm happy I never took testosterone or got my boobs cut off. I've learned to love my body. I want to say again that I'm not against trans people, I believe they exist but I think it should be illegal to let kids transition. I was 19 and I'm glad I had my parents who knew me and knew I wasn't trans. They took the time to understand the situation and talk to me into a bit of clearness. Detransitioners are real and it's shocking that when we say something like this we get asked for proof and are taken as liars. This is not that rare. I believe detransitioners numbers will unfortunately go up. Listen to us as well and be nice, life wasn't hard for me but I'm starting to get better. Thank you.

Budweiser is owned by AB InBev...the parent company of a huge number of beer brands worldwide...if you're drinking beer, even if it's not Bud Light, you're likely still putting money in their pockets...pretty sure they aren't worried about a decline in Bud Light sales, because people just buy more of their other brands not realizing they're still buying from the same company...

At 16:00, Dr Grande uses the example of a married couple with very different attitudes about spending seeking counseling as an analogy to the way a political solution should be sought. Golden! "The counselor would not tell them that what they need is more hate and accusations rather the therapist would tell them that they need to find common ground and figure out the problem. They need more understanding of each other and there is no rush to make any decisions. In the end, an unhappy compromise is probably better than an eternal war."

@truthcrime907 I was born and raised, and my entire family is still. Bullshit. They are at best surface level nice. In general some people are nice and some people aren't. And certain things about the society or environment can make that worse or better. Conservative Christians are a handful of people short of a monolith of aggression, hypocrisy, misogyny, and abuse of every kind. All that while not even actually knowing enough about their own religion after 50 yrars of practice to be called Christians by a reasonable person. As soon as you don't look or act like them its over for you. There is no actual love thy neighbor. It's love your own by statement and tear everyone else to shreds. Peel the lid back on a lot of congregations, and there are only seeds of chaos being sown. In America.

We should all go by biological sex because it’s real, it’s verifiable, it’s undeniable, and it can never be changed. Gender means nothing now that people keep changing it and being so confused by it. Females can have all different personalities, likes, interests, and hobbies, and they’re still females. Males can also have all different personalities, likes, interests, and hobbies, and they’re still males. It is impossible for a man to feel like he’s a woman because they have no way of knowing how that feels, and it doesn’t mean wearing makeup and dresses. Men and boys should not participate in women and girls sports as they’re separate for a reason.

We're all human, but our race & ethnicity come from our ancestors & parents that came from those ancestors mating choices. Evolution didn't give us that much of a choice in defining us as "human" (male & female), so why did we discriminate against those white people who said they were black? Or whites who said they were native American?

I think the issue with women's sports is similar to sports with weight classes. A 170 lb wrestler doesn't fight against a 210 lb wrestler because the physical difference gives the heavier guy an unfair advantage. Even if the 170 lb guy is the best wrestler in his weight class, he cannot do as well going up against someone who is physically larger and more muscular. Same deal with women's sports. What's between your legs doesn't affect your performance but the rest of your anatomy certainly does.

[@althunder4269]

What about Andy Kaufman wrestling women ?

[@KayosHybrid]

This is true but the main sex hormone in your body will dictate how your anatomy functions. Naturally high testosterone will always have the winning edge - but plenty of cis women have naturally high testosterone and are loudly vilified and accused of being men. Cis women can grow facial hair, have PCOS, have deep voices. It’s less common but not impossible. And they do succeed - but they are hated for it. So if a trans person has A anatomy and have matching A sex hormones (naturally produced) or B hormones as part of transition. How far into puberty (or post puberty) affects the physiological changes and function of their body, and even the development of it. I just think this nuance is important to be part of the discussion. But as a trans person if losing all rights to doing sports is what it takes to stop people calling us rapists, mentally sick and pedophiles I honestly feel like it’s a worthwhile trade.

[@debraberg1763]

@@KayosHybrid Quit whining. As if not being allowed to complete against women is the same as losing all rights to complete in sports.

You imagine yourself as a female caricature that has nothing to do with being a real woman. You may not be a pedophile, but most transgender biological men are. So consider the company that you keep.

All the while completely ignoring the fact that the right-wing media and even right wing elected officials are completely de-humanizing the minority group by repeatedly calling them pedophiles and groomers. Curiously also no mentions of book-banning of LGBTQ content by right wing elected officials.
