The Socialists, led by Pedro Sánchez, the prime minister, included plans to limit participation in female sports to “people with a female biological sex” in a policy document decided on at the party’s congress over the weekend.
The decision to also remove Q+ from a plan to protect sexual and gender minorities from the impact of social inequality sparked fury from LGBTQ+ activists and politicians from Left-wing partners of Mr Sánchez’s minority government.
The passing of a transgender rights reform in 2023, allowing anyone to change their official sex simply by stating their wish to switch, caused a bitter rift within Spain’s ruling Left-wing forces.
Carmen Calvo, the former Socialist deputy prime minister, said at the time the reform would “destroy the powerful battery of equality legislation in our country”.
Pathetic display from so-called socialists

Bone density is actually one of the things that absolutely goes down with HRT, they even mention that in the study you cited.
This is all from the study you just linked, if you really are interested in learning maybe you could try reading the sources you’re bringing to the table.
Just to close out, again citing the study you provided:
It’s almost like this is a non-issue that is being brought up by assholes to discriminate against an out-group.
A reminder that this comm is not for debating trans rights, (rule 4) I’ve let it slide thus far, but I’m really starting to question my judgement.

Are you interested in defending your statements or learning?
Bone density in trans women actually can end up being lower than in cis women, citation
It’s a tiny fraction of the population, even less of whom are going to be athletes. Cis women are perfectly capable of having higher testosterone levels and muscle mass than trans women.
Frankly a far bigger advantage when it comes to competing in sports is being wealthy enough to even have time/money to train for and attend these types of events on a regular basis rather than working to survive.
Don’t get defensive then.
The reality is that the ‘sanctity’ of sports competition is and has been a farce, excluding trans people entirely is a shit way to address whatever supposed problem there is, and the people who are interested in excluding trans people don’t give a shit about evidence anyways.

Not sure any cis or trans person can match your density
Wait, so, your solution to “gatekeeping being trans” is to gatekeep trans people?

I have to ask, are you trans yourself?

More than anything, I don’t think you really get to have an opinion on what is, or is not, gatekeeping trans people. That’s the sort of thing you need to “shut up and listen” to trans folks about. But that’s just my take.
Wow for a so-called ignorant passerby you sure have a lot of talking points ready. That’s amazing.

I looked up a study on google so now I will explain to all of you what your lives are like. I came here to be the professor not the student.
“Ignorant passerby genuinely want to change my mind” didn’t survive a single reply

You used an example to do what? To argue your point, right? So fuck you. Be honest. Reddit brained troll.
