This dude went undefeated on his high school girl's wrestling team.
Because Mack is transgender, and was assigned female at birth, bigoted laws decided that he should not be able to compete with boys. His birth certificate has an f on it, so girl athletes were forced to compete against him or to forfeit. Some chose to compete and lost, others chose not to and decided that an L is better than wrestling against a boy with a vagina.
He went undefeated all season and then at a regional event last week. Next up: Texas State championships.
Mack should be wrestling boys but Texas thinks differently so say hello to your new girls wrestling state champion.

I mean it literally is that so...
Then maybe get the dude's name right (it's Beggs, not Briggs.) What the
just published about trans children like Beggs seems more medically sound than any activist propaganda. Behold:
"Gender Ideology Harms Children
The American College of Pediatricians urges healthcare professionals, educators and legislators to reject all policies that condition children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex. Facts – not ideology – determine reality.
1. Human sexuality is an objective biological binary trait: “XY” and “XX” are genetic markers of male and female, respectively – not genetic markers of a disorder. The norm for human design is to be conceived either male or female. Human sexuality is binary by design..."

Sometimes dyslexic people misread shit. It happens.
Funny how you don't post number two "no one is born with a gender" or the part about intersex people which completely invalidates their argument that sex is a binary.
You also fail to identify the clear political bias of the link which is not to a federal organization (no matter how bad it wants you to think it is) but rather a group of anti science, homophobic, sexist, conservative minded doctors who openly admit to misrepresenting facts.
"The College bases its policies and positions upon scientific truth within a framework of ethical absolutes."
Posting your alternative facts here is irrelevant, but what else is new?
The facts are doctors have prescribed this young man with testosterone. He is above the age of when puberty typically begins so even the baseless assumption that the treatment will delay puberty is nonsense and while it may make him infertile, I would assume he has talked about that with the people who prescribed him the hormones in the first place, or his mandated psychologist, or his parents, or whoever else he has had to deal with in regards to trying to live as he wishes.
But I'm sure he appreciates and the girls in the locker room appreciate your defiance of the libtard agenda which promotes complexity, compassion, and understanding.

Any surgery or just surgery you don't agree with?
You knew what I meant.
I don't think anyone under the age of consent should be able to consent to a surgery that permanently alters their bodies. Not because I disagree with transgendered individuals right to live their preferred gender, but rather because they are still children and are making permanent life-altering decisions that they may not understand the full ramifications of. If someone can't legally get a tattoo until they are 18 they should not be able to have gender reassignment assignment surgery.

Do you know what it takes to get a gender reassignment surgery?
First you have to go to a therapist and tell them about your gender dysphoria. Not all transgender people feel dysphoria, but in order to get the surgery you have to convince a doctor you have it. If you do have gender dysphoria, getting a proper diagnosis of this usually requires eliminating other types of depression or personality disorders. It can literally take years. And if the therapist decides you aren't "really" transgender, they can deny you a diagnosis. Especially if they are bigots.
Then, once you finally manage to get the proper diagnosis, you get prescribed hormones. It takes a while before the hormone therapy has a visible change to your body. While you are waiting for the hormone therapy to work, you have to live your life as the gender you wish to be recognized as. You have to sometimes pay costly fees to change your identification and legal names, etc, and then you have to live under the circumstances of your gender, and have it recognized. Mack Beggs could potentially lose access to his hormones and potential surgery in the future because of the school not recognizing his gender. You have to do this for a few years, and while still seeing a therapist. Depending on your health insurance this can be hella costly.
Then, after all of that, if everybody along the way isn't a bigot and they believe that you are "really" transgender, then, you can pay for surgery which can cost around 50k in mister Beggs case. And there is no guarantee that your insurance will cover it.
If you had to go through all of that to get a tattoo, I would put them on the same level. But you don't. You just have to walk in and pay a dude. $50.
And lets not pretend there aren't people who do get their kids tatted up before 18.
No trans person undergoes complex and expensive surgery lightly. The idea that they aren't mature enough or thoughtful enough to make decisions about their own bodies is frankly pretty awful.
I don't know what Mack's surgery status is, and frankly I don't care, that's between him and his doctors.

I found it funny that in Noah's previous incarnation he said "I don't think I ever advocated giving children hormones replacement therapy,.."
https://www.faygoluvers.net/v5/.....on/page-2/
but now it's about "medicinal testosterone." Times, they are a changing. I'll keep an eye out for real questions, like "Is hormone replacement therapy carcinogenic" or "Does hormone replacement therapy interfere with healthy bone/brain development in children?" I love the smell of critical thinking in the morning.

I was speaking about that thread since you made up some kinda bs argument that had nothing to do with what we were talking about.
His doctors prescribed him testosterone so it is medical.
-If- there are consequences to his health, I'm sure he, his doctor, and his parents discussed it. None of it is your/our business.

For the second year in a row, Mack Beggs has won the girls division because Texas law will not let him compete against other boys.
http://amp.washingtontimes.com.....s-girls-h/
Some people cheered him on, others booed. After he won last year a lawsuit kept him from moving forward in the competition but this year he is back and once again undefeated.
Mack plans on attending college out of state. NCAA rules will allow him to wrestle other men, though he has expressed tons of respect for the girls he wrestled this year.
Last year, two competitors forfeit instead of facing off against him. This year, only one wrestler chose not to compete.
Congrats to him tho! He did a great job and has an amazing record. 36-0!!

Shit is changing, and it's hard to accept change, but both science and history are supporting the idea that the gender spectrum is larger than we thought.
Science is always challenging and often disproving things we believed our whole lives. I guess people are too invested in their own egos to ever entertain the thought that they could be wrong or that perhaps they don't truly understand as much as they thought.

Not sure it is larger than we thought. I see the current gender spectrum as it is viewed at this time as potentially infinite.
And there is a problem with the wrestling issue. There are guys who are wanting to compete as girls who absolutely do not identify as girls but are willing to say they do just to "prove a point".
And where does it end and who decides what is valid and what is not? The realm this is going is open to abuse. I do not care one way or the other how someone identifies themselves, but I think an open mind must be tempered with scepticism.
There are people who identify as other species. Should they be able to walk around in public nude like dogs do if they identify as a dog? What of the people who identify as a child. Should they be able to compete in sports against children when their biological age is something like 27? There are those who self identify as vampires. Whould we be bigots if we said we don't see them as vampires?
I know I branched away from the gender issue but I was showing the road it could lead. Will it lead to that? Hopefully not and probably not. But it is unclear where to draw the line and say, "Ok, that's far enough." And who gets to decide that line?

There is growing evidence that suggests that people who are transgender actually have different brain structures than that of males or females: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-something-unique-about-the-transgender-brain/
Most of these studies have embarrassingly small sample sizes, so obviously more research needs to be done. I am also curious as to whether or not identifying as the opposite gender has an effect on brain imagining vs the opposite.
Identifying as a child doesn't change the cognitive development of the brain, and identifying as a different species is ridiculous.
Personally, I think the Tumblr culture that makes it "cool" to be trans, promotes identifying as other species or inanimate objects, and glorifies mental illness is having a negative impact on young people; causing people to identify as trans who may not otherwise do so in order to fit in more. I think this does a tremendous disservice to individuals who actually have gender dysphoria.
I don't have any evidence to back this up though so it could be bullshit.

Camille Paglia (an accomplished academic and social critic) agrees, and says sane things like "It is certainly ironic how liberals who posture as defenders of science when it comes to global warming (a sentimental myth unsupported by evidence) flee all reference to biology when it comes to gender."

She also considers the rise of Western transgenderism "a symptom of decadence and cultural collapse".
This guy gets it:

And ATTENTION BUTTHURTALOS: Paglia's a lesbian, feminist (2nd wave?) Bernie supporter, so please throw as many emo insults her way as possible. I love watching communists choke on their own tails.
