So would it be okay to erase people if they are 0.02% instead of 1%?
How would you feel if you were erased?
Not erase people, but continue to live a principled life which factors objective reality to how a person “feels” regardless of whether that feeling is in good faith or used in bad faith to attempt to gain an advantage.
Ad personally if we can’t have it both ways, we should always serve the greater good, and the greater good here is protecting the integrity of sport for around 50% of society rather than 2% or less, and very possibly much less
Fortunately, sports organizations like World Athletics and World Aquatics do not believe simplicity is the most important goal.
But that's too complicated for Republicans in Congress and state legislatures. So they ignore the science and stick to their ideological principle.
In regard to transgender athletes, the Council has agreed to exclude male-to-female transgender athletes who have been through male puberty from female World Rankings competition from 31 March 2023.
Why do we waste our time/energy/attention on this? When does this kid graduate? How many state championships happened over the weekend? How many individual events were won by trans athletes?
Letsrun should just start some pro women athlete group if you creeps care so much about the genitalia of athletes. It’s a free country. Go protest you cowards.

Notice the manipulation and absurd ad hominem attack. This person is trying to reduce sex differences, which impact the entire body from conception through death, to genital differences so they can call you a creep and pervert.

People with intersex conditions are still either male or female based on the presence of an SRY gene, which is the determinant of biological sex. Notice in the list from the link below they classify the intersex conditions as specific to males, females or both - no mention of third sexes or spectrums. If your understanding of biological sex includes anything about a "spectrum," you don't understand basic biology.
Funny you keep throwing out your opinion as fact and think anyone who doesn’t share your opinion is too stupid to understand.
I didn't call anyone stupid, I just said you don't understand basic biology. There's a lot of horsesh!t ideas floating around confusing people so I'm not going to blame anyone.
Put down the gender ideology nonsense for a minute and read some actual science, though.

You mean the .02%? I am not pretending they don't exist, I'm saying we don't need to apply the AFAB/AMAB euphemism to people to whom it does not apply.

No one is being "erased" (whatever that means), but "assigning" sexes only applies to people with DSD who might have both male and female anatomy, and one set of anatomy is removed.
For everybody else, sex is observed, not "assigned."

They are the girls being marginalized here. They are the victims of adults failing to enact fair policies that would align with the World Athletics' policy.
Neither will advance from this meet in at least one event from which they rightfully should.
They are XX humans who have been denied the benefits of their work.
Is that actuality a thing though? If you compare the suicidality of groups of bipolar, schizophrenic, major depressive disorders, borderline personality, OCD, etc. with the population at large you will find that these subgroups of persons with psych disorders are elevated when compared to the unaffected population at large. it’s a disingenuous slight of hand to suddenly just move one group of DSM individuals into the unaffected group and then point out the disparity as a result of things other than the disordered behavior.

Further, the position that trans girls and women (XY humans) should be allowed to play in girls' and women's sports or they might commit suicide perpetuates the tyranny of the minority and sets a horrible precedent for society.
It literally teaches people that if they want to get what they want, no matter how absurd or how it will trample on the rights of others, the trump card is to threaten suicide.
If there is a suicide issue in the trans community (and the data on that isn't so conclusive) the response should be therapy, mental health support, love and support from their family and friends, and so on.
The solution is NOT a tyranny of the minority at the expense of XX humans.

It’s not about simplicity - it’s about factual accuracy. But, Occam’s razor here would apply here also.
It’s not about ignoring science - it’s about recognizing that a person’s “feelings,” even if held in good faith, have limitations when faced with objective reality.

So in your view, then, all female high school shot throwers today, in the past and in the future are nobodies. And all the families, friends and coaches of female high school shot throwers must be nobodies too.
Your sexist view that "nobody cares about female high school shot throwers lmfao" - and the cocksure superciliousness with which you assert your view like it's a nugget of great wisdom and incontrovertible truth you're handing down from a lofty perch on high - actually doesn't shed any light at all on how many people care or don't care about female high school shot throwers. But it sure says a whole lot about your prejudices, parochialism and pomposity. Lmfao indeed.
