    Apparently it is, people are slipping through. Changed their behavior from doing something to doing nothing. What I know of it is it's supposed to turn straight black men gay and/or emasculate them. Is that accurate? Both things are literally impossible so it is directly benign, but...

    Trans swimmer Lia Thomas, 22, blows away competition

    You are describing a spectrum based on sex/gender. I'm just saying there is probably a better metric that does the same thing, more efficiently and would easily accommodate newer information as it is revealed. I have presented a solution which tries to account for unknown unknowns but the...

    I don't see officials attempting to solve the issue. I see them ignoring it.

    Trans swimmer Lia Thomas, 22, blows away competition

    I am probably unusual in this space as I come from a prospective that is unusual from what I have observed. I addressed as much as I could as accurately as I could, but I cannot control how I am perceived. It is inevitable that I be misunderstood. If my prospective is unwanted, I will leave.

    Trans swimmer Lia Thomas, 22, blows away competition

    I believe it would be beneficial to modify the way we decide who competes with who because gender is showing cracks as is evident in this conversation. We used gender because it was what we knew, but that does not mean it is the ONLY metric that can be used to decide a fair competition. I...

    I am not aware of the places they have added new divisions for other genders. I figure this video/conversation is evidence that's not happened, the tradition is still in place.

    I keep talking around it because it is not relevant to my point. I have already acknowledged sex based divisions have "worked" (probably have always been leaving people out) but we are now aware, it's not enough so we have the opportunity to devise new ways. The issues that we are having today...

    If the current method was good enough by itself, this conversation would not exist anywhere. Humans are still evolving and the current method is showing cracks as evident by this very conversation. We're only at the beginning of this debate. Maybe adding gender divisions is the best that we can...

    There is probably a better way which doesn't involve women being subject to accusations of being male.

    Trans swimmer Lia Thomas, 22, blows away competition

    The problem is we do not want to modify tradition to accommodate reality. We do not want to adapt to new information. Dividing by sex worked well enough in the past, but obviously it's not working anymore. The cat's not going back in the bag, adapt. That's basically what I've been saying the...

    Where have I caked for anyone? As a black same gender loving black man, I can see things that you cannot just like as a black woman you can see some things that I cannot. This is being treated as a black and white issue in which we have all the information/all possible perspectives or the only...

    That's why the problem exists. Divisions can't be based on sex/gender anymore. That was just an easy way to do it, likely to have always left some people out. It doesn't actually represent humanity today and I doubt it ever truly did nor will it in the future. A new metric must be developed at...

    I see, so the divisions would be like a videogame: "easy", "moderate", "hard". I suppose I just don't classify non-obstruction as doing something. Yeah, I can see there may be consequences to it but if you are the bouncer at the club, I walk up with a knife and you don't obstruct my entrance...

    I'd argue they are being ignored. The establishment isn't doing anything. It isn't changing, they're just integrating "lunch counters". There is no work in just allowing them to compete. What's the difference between that and the open division besides the name? That goes with the above point...

    Why do you think them (subordinate group) advocating for a separate division would work when the majority (dominant group) could just ignore them? Who is barred from the male division? On the surface. Males playing dress-up is just an idea that you have about transsexuals. The reality is...

    Why does everything have to be gay?

    It's a cognitive bias. If you were to view the country objectively, "straightness" floods every facet of contemporary and historic society so completely, you would laugh at yourself for saying this. As a heterosexual in a heterosexual world, heterosexuality is so fundamentally pervasive in your...

    So basically a "female division" and an "open division" (because the male division is also open)? I think they are good proposals. Since the transsexual community is likely not in control of division creation, I'm not sure if it is them that need to develop "common sense". The cis gender...

    Jussie Smollet Ordered to Be Released By Judge

    I wonder if his yelling that he was not suicidal actually "worked." I'm still not convinced there wasn't some white people behind this hoax. It was so ridiculous, came across like a typical white amateur writer badly writing a black character in a movie. Seems like he was talking to his...

    The Reparations Megathread

    Reparations to FBA is actually beneficial to everyone else as well and I believe that's the biggest reason nobody wants to do it. Kamala Harris was right when she said any policy that helps black people will help everyone but her conclusion was to do the opposite thing as her premise. Kamala...

    Because they can't. Because they are likely thinking it is psychologically detrimental as well but just because they think it, just because they attack us with these "Industry Baby's" and "WAP's" don't mean they're actually having a negative effect. Our minds and how it responds to reality (and...
