  They already posted on !fediverse@lemmy.world asking for a new instance, so I guess they know that lemm.ee won’t allow it.

  Just checked, from the sidebar “No bigotry”

    Please explain what I’ve said that is bigoted? I would go .ee but they don’t allow bot majority communities (I have got an exception for that but I’m checking out the options first).

      Assuming you’re genuinely uninformed and confused, trans women do not have any advantages over cis women if they’ve been on HRT. The lack of testosterone affects the body dramatically. You can see evidence of this in the fact that trans women aren’t dominating any of the competitions which have allowed them.

      Furthermore, sports were never fair in the first place. Some people are more naturally gifted in various areas than others. There are actually cis female athletes who have been forced to medically lower their natural testosterone levels in the name of fairness, and that’s some Harrison Bergeron shit.

        if they have been on HRT

        This might actually be the most important thing here: I have no idea how youth sports handle things (and under the current fascist climate competing as a trans athlete surely is nearly impossible), but if they were to compete without HRT they might have an advantage (in specific sports)?

        It’s such a small if combination of things that it’s not worth making a fuss over about, but it might be the one case where it could be true?

      Replace ‘trans’ with any other group, does it sound bigoted to you now? It reads like ‘we can’t have black girls compete with white girls because of the clear advantage in physicality’ you know, the common racist talking point of old?

        OK let’s replace trans with another group let’s use men as an example. “We can’t have men compete with women because of the clear advantage in physicality” is this sentence fine?

    You haven’t shared any opinions - just hateful falsehoods and bigotry.

    Some folk learnt that free and open discourse is the real enemy, and go harder than Scientologists against anyone they percieve as disagreeing with them

      I agree. We’re talking about Elon Musk, right?
