“It is a complicated issue. It is truly a complicated issue, with a wide range of views, truly a wide range of views,” Jean-Pierre said. “There is no ‘yes or no’ answer to this, it is complicated. There is a rule that the Department of Education [DOE] has put forward, and we’re going to let that process move forward, and again, we want to make sure that while we establish guardrails with this rule, we also prevent discrimination, as well, against transgender kids. But again, a complicated issue with a wide range of views, and we respect that.”
“Absolutely no reason for the Biden admin to do this,” New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote. “It is indefensible and embarrassing. The admin can still walk this back, and they should. It’s a disgrace.”
“Honestly, this move by Biden to push a rule on trans kids in sports is not only a backwards betrayal, it [forces] us to have to spend our time dealing with god d*** sports instead of criminal bans on our healthcare,” Alejandra Caraballo, a civil rights attorney and LGBTQ+ advocate, wrote. “He could have just done nothing. This is legitimizing transphobia.”

“A complicated issue with a wide range of views, and we respect that” Fuck off out of here with that “centrist” nonsense. There’s nothing complicated about it, and it’s not an issue unless you want to turn it into one and want to appeal to people’s emotions like Republicans are doing. It was only a matter of time before they’d start throwing trans people under the bus. I guess with the coming elections it’s as good a time as ever.
I wish I could help you there. I used to be on your side on this issue, and somebody on Hexbear graciously sent me some resources to read. I was very wrong.
I didn’t keep them, though. I’m sure somebody will come bully you a bit (this is very bullyable, sorry, I don’t make the rules), but also give you the links.
Yeah I expect to get bullied on this but I hope someone can come in and provide me with the info you saw. Im not even close minded person either, im open to changing my view but everyone now a days on the internet never thinks people are open to changing their opinion. Hence, the bullying especially if they can’t present sources
this is not debating the history of one or two events, YOU’RE DEBATING THE RIGHT OF TRANS PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE IN SOCIETY! MY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN SOCIETY!
also the HRT steals your muscles, you think we take it just for the breasts?
Thank you for saying it. I’m so tired of saying it.
We bully you for the liberal reading the thread who might change their mind. Bullying works.
Good on ya for also being the liberal reading the thread today.
