100% in support of this - there should NEVER have been any confusion: Trans women (MTF) benefit from male genetics - even if they undergo gender "affirming" surgery (that is: even if their balls are cut-off!) - that is PATENTLY unfair to biological women. That it was allowed for 1 week, much less several years, is just unfair and, in my mind, unreasonable. Mind you, I have no objection to trans women in the ladies bathroom - I'm under no illusion that women are going into the bathroom to show off their vaginas (or penises) to each other... its just a bathroom, and the idea of a 2nd one for women is a "first world problem". 99% of women's restrooms in the 1st world have individual stalls that give each person a significant level of privacy. (99% of women's restrooms OUTSIDE the 1st world are just holes in the ground and are already shared with men ). That said, I draw the line when it comes to locker-rooms - where people are undressing & bathing. If you've HAD the surgery, and can pass for a female (albeit with surgical scarring) - when totally naked, then we can talk... but if you've still got a penis, you do not (perhaps yet) have the right to be in a women's locker-room. If you're trans and are uncomfortable in the "other" lockerroom, please ask for separate accommodations (usually, 1 or more coach's offices are in the same locations). COMMON SENSE if you ask me!

Shoe drops: IOC assigns trans-identified males into male sports. https://apnews.com/article/ioc-olympic-transgender-female-eligibility-520cd9cee152a312767a667acf77dbc8 AP, "Transgender women athletes banned from women’s Olympic events" - misleading headline. In reality, -MALE- athletes were rightly directed to male events, merely banned from female. & they should do it other way too - direct female athletes into female events & ban from male - No one cares, but ok they should. Some reports say, chromosome tests will be done. It's not instantly clear if male boxer Imane Khelif will be banned from his sick violence against women on international TV, but we can hope.

@chuckBKK I think Casey Tanner doesn't really fit the list. While he did die young he apparently had severe preexisting health issues that weren't linked to his career or lifestyle.

So, technically an Ephebophile, not so much a Pedophile... Just as illegal, and ESP as he knew the victim from a place of authority, nearly as bad. Not that sexually enticing post-pubescent children is OK - it is not - but there are degrees of evil... But people, you have to be able, as an adult, to separate thought and desire from action! When I was 19, I spent the summer (home from college) working as a lifeguard at a community pool. There was a girl who kept coming on to me - she was cute & sexy and I'd DEFINITELY have "done that". In fact, we were all set to go out on a Sat after work... UNTIL a co-worker clued me in that, while she looked 17 or 18, she was in-fact, only 14! (For clarity: I'm pansexual) That didn't make her less attractive - or less sexually enticing - but it DID mean there was NO WAY I would have acted upon that! In the end, I wound up hooking up with the only other MALE lifeguard who worked at that pool!

Many more lawsuits in the pipeline. https://x.com/benryanwriter/status/2017471549536661927 Some have run into statute of limitations, judges who hate Detrans, etc. but at least a dozen are pending.

@zullu who would have banned this? Compared to some things I've seen, these are not particularly problematic. Were the straight equivalents also banned? Say Uncle and Team Skeet are the same company.

@raphjd Also, RFKJ has new order to limit it. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/12/18/transgender-health-care-minors-banned-trump-admin-rules/87826202007/ 'This is not medicine. This is malpractice,' Kennedy says Indeed. Calling it GAC is wrong: it's criminal injury to people when you destroy their healthy growth, tissues or parts without their consent - & kids can't consent. (I say that, not as controversy but as plain fact, accepted by most Europe governments.) RFKJ points out, Big Medical does it for money - they make billion$$$ vid - https://x.com/i/status/2001695814968840481 "The Trump admin will not stand by while ideology, misinformation and propaganda push vulnerable young people into decisions they fully cannot understand and that they can never reverse."

Heart & PRAYERS going out to his friends, family, and him - RIP.

@blablarg18: @tnar mentioned "Actual sex with minors, 15 y/o...". Just sayin' that Megyn Kelly, the person you get most of your world views from, thinks having sex with a 15 y/o is not pedophilia.

@raphjd With name "Gay News" being a bit old-timey perhaps

@blablarg18 Other studies have shown that lesbian couples have the highest rate of Domestic Violence. Gay couples have the lowest rate, with hetero couples being in the middle.
