New study finds "no substantial evidence of any biological advantages for trans women competing in elite women's sport."
"'What threatens women's elite sport, for cis and trans women, is not trans women, but is rather misogyny in the form of underfunding, non-parity in participation and leadership, inequitable sport space allocation/access, and a range of sporting opportunities not afforded to women...in equitable ways.'"
gender feelings, non-human feelings
I changed my profile pic to my human appearance and it made me think about how I only really feel comfortable seeing my human form when I’m dressed up nice. That introduces a conflict! Often dressing up “nicely” introduces a degree of discomfort. Wearing a bra, or a belt because my narrow hips don’t keep my shorts where they should be. But when I’m dressed so, I’m loathe to get comfy again because then I’ll feel less like a human I’m happy to see in the mirror.

@jake @hergaiety I agree with Jake’s points, and also it is almost a 1:1 UI copy of their now defunct Twitter app, Tweetbot. I didn’t use that, but many power users did, and the comfort derived from the similarity in UIs is a big deal
@jake lmao
@mavica_again we are. It’s our right to do so
