Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes
The issue here is a physical contest, where divisions are made based on physical and developmental characteristics. It's the body that makes the difference in this contest.
You agree it's not a choice. You agree transgender people are born that way? That's what science tells us. Science tells us a transgender woman's brain is born female.
Your "brain scans" objection is stupid. We don't need baby brain scans to know gender dysphoria is biological and neurological. We know a transgender woman's brain is born female. Thus, we know a transgender woman is born female.
Now, you can say she's born half and half. Or you can decide one half is supreme. Ultimately, the question becomes one of mind and body, and which rules over the other. In virtually all cases, we place mind over body. We consider the mind to control the body. We consider the mind superior to the body. As such, transgender women are born female.
It's not a Red Herring. It's something anyone, especially a transgender person, should know.
