ToxicWaste

does anyone have the actual written law? it is hard to argue using summaries or even opinion pieces of musky boy.

exactly because of allergies it is important to stick to the menu. if someone has a real allergy, not 'i fart a little more', they know exactly what they can and cannot eat. so they will order what they know is safe and the restaurant knows how to prepare the stuff on the menu.

i dont know how bad you can mess someone up with lactose, but milk has a large possibility of cross contamination. i know you can kill someone with celiac disease from just a little cross contamination. so lets just not risk it.

as they should. i dont like american culture, where some people seem to think it is ok to take an item of the menu and alter pretty much everything about it.

btw: if you want to be treated like a king in france... look up history

or the "Head-up-Display we have at home"

i thought she wants to be more active on bluesky now

please don't do double speak: calling it a roman salute is already trying to give it any historical rationalisation.

it is a nazi salute. there is little to no evidence of romans doing that salute. the only history with that gesture starts around 1914.

ok, that sounds better. does insurance pay for HRT where you are, or what does that cost you? generally i think doing sports should not be behind a paywall (except equipment, which is hard to circumvent).

but in that case, it may be the best thing available to prevent shenanigans like the linked story.

i like that: just sports, not womens- or mens- or trans- or whatever- sports. but by which system do you stop an all males team identifying as women for the duration of a weightlifting competition?

i dont have a good answer. but i was hoping someone in the discussion has.

agreed, testosterone (or other hormones) are a flawed system for categorising competitors. so is weight class, as women generally have a higher body fat ratio. so is any system we can come up with. however what I categorize MYSELF as, is probably the worst system. trans people should, like any other person, be able to do sports. but to have competition we need a better system then people choosing their opponents.

so that is why i am asking what systems you guys suggest.

obviously I care about those too. same as any steroids, PEDs, own-blood doping and whatever drugs, hormones or whatever they invent to increase performance. and stop crying for trans women. the example i mentioned was basically a trans woman with zero treatment. even if he was an obvious troll.

the whole argument is about having a reasonably fair and therefore interesting competition.
