The Florida House passed a bill on April 14, 2021, that would ban trans girls and women from playing on high school and collegiate teams. It would also allow schools to require a genital inspection of student athletes suspected of being trans.

This is child sexual abuse. I hope this never ends up happening in the UK. Trans girls and women deserve to play in women's sports. Trans boys and men deserve to play in men's sports. Period.

I'll add some bags too. If everyone does that, we will close the floodgates here.

Good luck, Tinsel

Yes, I spotted that too, asking for your account to be "reported and deleted". Unbelievable.

Its dreadful behaviour attempting to shut down support groups

NiceGerbil · 18/04/2021 22:19

Another point.

We have been told over and over than trans children are very shy about their bodies and prefer to change separately.

For that to happen they would need to give a reason surely?

In the case they are in communal changing then of course the other children will notice that they are a different sex.

The other point is that we are told often that trans children have particular vulnerabilities and needs.

If a child moved schools once socially transitioned I'd think any parent would be alerting the school about their child's trans status so they could keep an eye out for issues. Whether related to MH, bullying etc.

And you can't change your sex legally until you're 18 here I don't know about USA. Any school would want docs for a child they will be enrolling surely.

How things work in real life do often not seem to be given a thought.

In practice you'd need a situation where

A child socially transitioned and then changed schools probably to a different area where no one knew them
With no docs and the school would accept that
The parents would lie about the child's sex to the school/ not disclose their trans status
The child 'passes' as their acquired sex and no one notices any secondary sexual characteristics/ that they are the opposite sex when changing
The school do not ask for records from previous school
Probably more

Also in practice the two trans girls who are good at sports in USA are openly trans and there have been lots of articles etc about how supportive the response has been.

We've been asked to give evidence to a government enquiry. That's bound to frighten certain people.

Can we fill in the thread with compost too? Given the amount of absolute shite in here it's only fitting......

CorvusPurpureus · 18/04/2021 22:25

God, Tinsel, that really is low Angry. Nasty behaviour.

I'm in a desert & we have a sandstorm brewing tonight, so I'll send it to this thread to fill it in...

@TinselAngel

I've just been advised the OP is trying to cause a pile on to my Twitter account.
The OP has been handed the OP’s arse and is taking it out on Transwidows? Holy hell...

That's a great post by Nice Gerbil.

Direct quote from OP:

Can we please report and get rid of accounts like
@transwidows? It's honestly so harmful not only to the transgender community but to those who have literally lost loved ones.
