    Hey, that's a great idea... just like providing free cellphones to the illegals so they can "report in." What a farce this country has become.

    What no bra? No bra then no female status. No trangendering for guys should be allowed unless they can wear a sports bra for 15 hours straight and never whimper.

    I just got a new shop apron and it has shoulder straps which gave me a new appreciation for women and the ever falling shoulder strap. The left one likes to fall at the most inconvenient times.

    So yeah, bras too. No man can be a woman without a Victoria’s Secret bra with a falling shoulder strap.

    If the strap is falling it is too loose and offers no support. If it is tight enough then you will suffer shoulder impingement. Wearing a bra is fun said no woman ever.

    Speaking for a whole lot of red blooded straight guys in the world, we’re not particularly fond of them either.

    As the weather gets better, I go shirtless unless I have to go somewhere.

    Maybe I had best think about that. I don’t want to have bra strap lines whilst working in the sun and tanning.
    Or maybe…..If I had tan lines that might be enough to get that 900 a month.

    World Swimming Bans Transgender Athletes from Women's Events
    6/19/22
    BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — World swimming’s governing body has effectively banned transgender women from competing in women’s events, starting Monday.

    FINA members widely adopted a new “gender inclusion policy” on Sunday that only permits swimmers who transitioned before age 12 to compete in women’s events. The organization also proposed an “open competition category.”

    “This is not saying that people are encouraged to transition by the age of 12. It’s what the scientists are saying, that if you transition after the start of puberty, you have an advantage, which is unfair,” James Pearce, who is the spokesperson for FINA president Husain Al-Musallam, told The Associated Press."

    The University of Pennsylvania has just nominated their biologically male female swimmer to receive the NCAA's Woman of the Year Award. In the process of his collegiate career, the guy bounced from being ranked #462 as a male to being ranked #1 as a female. While this person is proudly being paraded about in public by the university, 16 of the actual women on the team who wrote a letter to that same university felt that they had to do it anonymously. I smell a Time Magazine cover on the horizon.

    It occurs to me that the "Women's Movement" stands idly by and watches this happen because--like everything else we see these days--the Movement was merely stood up to disrupt the then-current "Normal" (or perhaps it was hijacked.) Mission accomplished. Today's a brand new day. Yesterday's purported beneficiaries are today's useful idiots (willing or otherwise) whose usefulness has expired, and are grist for the new mill. What sucks is that the lack of universality that may have contributed to the need for legitimate movements shall never be permitted so that we can all unite in solutions. "Us versus Them" shall forever be a lucrative industry. Those who purport to be your friend--who contribute to your repressive circumstances they then leverage to justify their own existence--shall always have one hand on your back ready to shove you under a more lucrative bus.

    The Fed is working to undermine the states on this subject. In 2021, Biden's administration issued guidance of Title IX to include protection for sexual orientation & gender identity. A judge shut it down, but the Federal Dept of Education is finishing up changes to new rules that will do exactly that.

    Merriam-Webster has caved to the woke mob, revising the definition of “female” in its online dictionary.

    In the first entry, the dictionary states, “of, relating to, or being the sex that typically has the capacity to bear young or produce eggs.” The addition of “typically has the capacity” has been added, expanding the version in the tenth edition of the dictionary, which states: “of, relating to, or being the sex that bears young or produces eggs.”

    Even more woke, however, is the second entry listed under “female”: “having a gender identity that is the opposite of male.”

    Since it is now politically correct to say that a man can get pregnant which totally obliterates the “birthing person” idea, let’s just call each other,
    Penis’d ones and Uterus’d ones.
    It actually works. Penis’d ones cannot compete in sports with the uterus’d ones and visa versa unless both are below the age of puberty.
    If a penis’d one or uterus’d one has had said objects of appreciation removed, then it falls back on what that person was born with.

    Simple.

    Actually, now that we have the technology, I think most reasonable people would be satisfied with genetic testing. They could use the same blood they draw for drug testing.
