there is this hockey rpf author that got caught in the Great Claude AO3 Scandal of 2026 and used the beta excuse. the twist is that… they seem to have proof that they’re not lying (?) (!)

don't rly care about all this man i think people who are born with dicks and identify as women & people who are born with coochies & identify as men can do that bc it's a free country and all. but ik the uk hates freedom so maybe that's the disconnect idk. good luck xoxo
OK, since a few people have missed this, my usage is common amongst people who want clarity about biological sex - otherwise known as 'gender critical' people or 'sex realists' It's also considered.
Male and female are biological terms, that apply across species. You can't change sex, so all 'transwomen' are male, and all 'transmen' are female. Male and female are not social roles. With 'man and woman' it's not quite so obvious, so I tend, like others who use this approach to refer to trans-identified *males*, not trans identified *men*. I defend the view that 'man' and 'woman' are not social roles but biological categories and I defend the definition of woman as adult human female, but I want to be crystal clear.
So this group of male people 'identify' as the opposite sex, or, sometimes, just as trans, or as some other gender identity (like 'gender queer') that falls 'under the trans umbrella'. Hence, because biology is important, I refer to *trans identified* males and *trans identified* females. I tend to use initials and 'they' when referring to particular people. This does not gratutiously hurt them, and does not force me to saying something that I don't what to say - viz - that trans identified males are in some respect women. I'm now of the view that it is morally wrong for males to identify as women. I was persuaded of this, by this paper by @aytchellesse:
journalofcontroversialideas.…
Unlike Holly, I no longer refer to transwomen - I don't think it works - but I'm happy for other people to do so. The main reason is that I think that the demands raised by (most, not all) trans identified men are demands that flow specifically from *male* entitlement. It is, I now think, important to capture that in the terms we use. I think it's quite important for *men,* specifically, in this argument to acknowledge and critique the huge male entitlement that is engaged.
The worst and most confusing usage is primarily American and consists in phrases like 'male to female transgender.' This is a *nonsense* phrase.
I think people should use clear language, and they should spell out why they use the terms that they do. I think people should be self-reflective about thier language use, and prepared to explain and defend their policy, and to change it, if necessary.
hth.
oh yeah that's true. we shouldn't pursue reforms that disempower a corrupt and overreaching court because they did a non-corrupt (except for one guy) ruling in 1983. 7 years before i (middle aged) was born. good point.
she's a disingenuous profiteer who strip mined fandom for content, so the most straightforward answer is that she simply did not care. the second order answer is that she can't write worth a damn

many are calling this "wrecker shit", "a republican front", or "comically stupid". not me. i think directly tying jacob frey to useless reactionary centrism at the state party level is a brilliant idea. keep doing this shit, sam. 💙

The real divide in our time is between those who believe in a better future for us and our children, and those who don’t.
Great to speak in Budapest today with @PM_ViktorOrban
very unimportant in the sense that he has no power and is completely irrelevant, but still, i'd love to see some investigative journalists apply themselves to the question of how many women michael tracey has raped. teapawt.net/mtracey/status/2042950…
This is a white nationalist post about everyone being white thin & more formally dressed. Has nothing to do w crime rates
