Referencing an anti-transgender website as a source for issues related to gender identity or genetics might be construed as biased?

 

Where do you get the impression the site is "anti-transgender"?

I provided the supporting link in my earlier post https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Reduxx

 

It would be expected that the sites own "About" blurb would declare themselves to be a legitimate news source, rather than a hate site.

I welcome information that would demonstrate otherwise, because despite looking for such information, I could find none.

Well, anybody can write a Wikipedia article. And relying on the SPLC for anything unbiased is a funny joke.

I don’t see the word “hate” on their own written description.

But putting that aside, why don’t we just talk about the medical report? Nobody is denying the report or its conclusions. Dude has a micro penis and beats up women on the regular. That’s not very good.

I don't have enough knowledge on the subject of genetics (I don't really have any beyond what I can read on Wikipedia) to offer any comment of serious value, I'm just thinking out loud and talking out my rear.

It’s consensual though. It’s on those women competitors to not consent. Then this issue comes to a resolution. Unfortunately it’s like that Iranian lady who stripped down to her underwear the other day. She has now disappeared. The early ones will suffer the most but then momentum eventually builds. In our world it being tarred and feathered by the media. Way better than whatever happens to you in Iran!

Vancouver Island athlete goes from diving to drag

Diver Aidan Faminoff, who goes by the stage name Hazel, is featured in season six of Canada’s Drag Race and will host a viewing party Thursday evening at the Encore club.
 
 
 
Diver comes out as gay, that's an old news story.  The fact he came out in 2107 is interesting.

Canadian swim star Penny Oleksiak denies drug use, says she'll keep training despite 2-year suspension

 

7-time Olympic medallist says 'genuine mistakes' led to competition ban

 

 

A two-year suspension from competitive swimming has forced Penny Oleksiak to answer questions about drug use, train by herself in public pools and defend her legacy as Canada’s most decorated female Olympian.

 

It’s a legacy she is determined to continue at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics despite the penalty she must serve.

 

In an exclusive interview with CBC Sports, the 25-year-old Toronto athlete, now based in Los Angeles, denied she has ever used performance-enhancing drugs, and said that the suspension handed down on Nov. 25 was merely the result of scheduling oversights.

7-time Olympian loses track of when she is supposed to be available for drug testing.  Ya, OK.   :1954_dancing: 

 

Of course, CBC hardly challenges her.

I'm not sure what her best swim style is, but can she do it with "elbows up"?
