  It’s intentional and pointing out the absurdness of what the TERFs are saying.

    Is the testosterone in the room with you right now?

      Never, yes. But vagina testosterone tho

  Degender most sports and separate by weight class. Perfect? No. Solves this idiotic mess of a worldwide scandal? Yes.

  Now, about all the doping from Russia and China…

    This doesn’t work as out of a man and woman of the same weight the man will still be stronger on average. Women have a higher body fat percentage, and less muscle in their upper body simply because they have less testosterone. You would probably have to use testosterone as a way of categorizing people in sport. It sucks but there is no other fair way I can see.

      There is no “fair”. You can’t have it. Tall people usually win in basketball. Narrow builds do better in marathons. People older for their age bracket (as kids) are more likely to enter the NHL (growing up they’re bigger so they get more playing time). So yeah, whatever you do, most of us are starting with a big disadvantage at any sport, even if we put in the same effort our whole lives.

      That’s life. The question is how to make rules knowing all of that.

      I literally said it wasn’t a perfect solution, just that it would solve these silly gender scandals. I stand by it.

      Even with the same muscle mass, it appears men might be stronger in the upper body compared to women (“A Comparison between Male and Female Athletes in Relative Strength and Power Performances”, Sandro Bartolomei, et al. ) so I’m not sure checking for any one single variable would make things fair.

  Wow, it’s almost like trying to measure and codify man- and womanhood is inherently dangerous and phobic, even to cisgendered people who don’t meet the nebulous standards set by bigots who are obsessed with other people’s genitals, and we should maybe just stop doing that and let people identify themselves however they want?

  Just a thought.

  Babyslime is the woman who decided to have no prenatal care at all for her second pregnancy, and delivered a baby with mermaid syndrome (sirenomelia) which is linked to uncontrolled maternal gestational diabetes, and when the baby was breech and she was in labour at like 28 weeks, the obstetrician told her he had to do a C section, and she spent the rest of her time on her blog claiming she was medically raped or birth raped. She is a shitty person.

  Jesus what’s so hard about XX and XY?

  source

  • RandomWalker@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    One reason is because your chromosomes don’t control genital development, your hormones do. So if you’re born with XY chromosomes and your testosterone receptors don’t work then you’ll develop female genitals and a generally female physiology (minus reproductive organs).

    This is all separate from gender expression obviously, but things are hard because the world is complex. If you haven’t seen or experienced this complexity in your life, that’s fine. But don’t diminish the complexity of other’s experiences just because they don’t match your own.

  • zout@fedia.io ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Nothing. But there are cases of men with XX, women with XY and some others like XXY or X0.

    As a general rule, when it comes to any science, the version you learn in grade school is extremely simplified to the point of being almost entirely useless. To draw a parallel to physics, if you ask a physicist “how many states of matter are there?”, they’d probably consider it a difficult question, the exact distinction between a distinct state and a subset/variant of a state, but any complete model has at least 20 states. What you’re saying is the equivalent of “what’s so hard about solid, liquid and gas?”

    Quite a lot actually! Chromosomes aren’t a good basis for biological sex.

      So we have 4 independent variable

      Chromosomal sex Genetic sex Hormonal sex Cells sex

      Put it all into a matrix I would love to see the population distribution across this table.

      Surly we can simply define a subset of the combinations. Cos the only other solution is to simply through out the concept of gender divisions but that just ain’t gonna work.

    Nothing at all

    This post is talking about people born XXY or X0 (just one x chromosome and nothing else)

    or people born with a mixture of XY and XX chromosomes, such as discordant chimerism

    Genetic sex is not binary, its a bellcurve. This is not a theory or an idea or a matter of debate among biologists.

    The only people on earth who think its only XX and XY are those who are uneducated on the topic

    but now you know better!!

      Can somebody please enlighten me with some numbers on the commonality of said deviations. I always assumed they made up such a small percentage it wasnt relevent same as people with 4 or 6 fingers.

  transcript (manual):

  It’s really simple. If you’re born with a vagina and you naturally have elevated testosterone levels, you’re a man. If you have a vagina and you take testosterone, you’re a woman. But also if you have a vagina, you’ll never be a man. But also if you have higher testosterone then you were never a woman. Woman never yes man a vagina testosterone no was an elevated. Vagina man.
