Caster Semenya is a grown ass male with XY 5-ARD, a condition that affects the development of the penis in males. You guys gaslit people for so many years that Semenya was merely a "female with high T". Turns out the high T was all along coming from.. *cough cough*, his balls.
1)Transphobes rely on the argument that everyone can be neatly divided into two categories, male and female. However, transphobes can't even agree among themselves whether Semenya is a woman (she is) or a man (she isn't). This means that one key assumption of transphobic (1/n)

Ok you are just trolling at this point. You've wasted my time enough. We will keep banning grown ass males like Semenya out of female sports. There is not a single thing you can do about it. Not a SINGLE one. Your troll ass is forever dismissed. Go shout into the void 😘✌️

Yes, we all have cloacas for the initial stage of embryonic development. The cloaca is the common compartment of the urogenital and anorectal channels in the 5th developmental week of humans that subdivides into two separate passages during the 6th and 7th weeks.
Replying to @zaelefty
Humans don’t have cloaca. Holy fuck, is that your argument? 😂😂 Do you know what a cloaca is? We begin physiologically undifferentiated with genetic instructions. When the instruction fails, the embryo defaults to female. Develops as a female, albeit typically infertile. What is your biological and genetic understanding of human embryology? I ask but clearly it’s zero.

CBS News said there was no evidence of fraud. The NYT said the Somali community was being targeted CNN said there was "little evidence." Tim Walz said it was “white supremacy” to expose fraud Today: $90M busted and 15 charged. IT WAS ALL FRAUD AND THEY KNEW.

On Hantavirus: a (non-technical) thread. Disclaimer: I am a biology PhD, but not virology/epidemiology. Husbandman is a virology PhD. But I’m told I’m good at communicating science, so here’s my take. #Hantavirus

Incorrect. Females never have a penis. Absolutely zero DSD causes a female to have a penis.

The internet is forever. And ever, and ever. Dumbassery preserved. You can run, you can hide, but you can't really delete. @ScienceTylia you've been owned.
A cell layer that has developed to protect your body from the outside doesn’t work like a cell layer that has developed to protect your body from the inside. The cells lining my vagina are not the same cells, and they don’t have the same function, as the ones wrapping your penis. There’s a name for what happens when you subject dry-adapted “outside skin” to wet-adapted “inside conditions”. Further reading: trench foot.

Semenya knew he was male by puberty when his testicles produced the normal levels of testosterone that masculinized his body, just as all other males born with 5-ARD DSD. These photos are from his autobiography. That’s Caster in the boys’ school uniform, and him on the beach.

The single most radicalizing moment of my life was watching Democrats from the balcony of the State of the Union refuse to stand for Iryna Zarutska's mother, seated 15 feet away from me. Now they're tearing down her murals. They never cared about immigrants, it was all a lie.

she was gang-raped by migrants and her rapists got absolutely no jail time, she then tried to kill herself, became paralyzed by the attempt, and then asked the state to finish her off in the name of “mercy.” everyone failed this woman. genuinely soul crushing.

Racist? Black female athletes are welcomed to compete in the female category, because black women are not males. Black women don't have an active SRY gene (which is what the cheekswab is testing) Black women don't have testosterone-producing testicles. Stop the non-sense.

I wholeheartedly welcome the new IOC guidelines that secure a safe and fair female category that excludes male athletes. SRY screening is a simple, non-invasive, once-in-a-lifetime check that returns female sport to female athletes. Laurel Hubbard should not have been allowed to lift weights against women. Caster Semenya should not have been allowed to run against women. Imane Khelif should not have been allowed to punch women in the face. This is a vindication for all the brilliant women who have fought for fairness and safety for all women in sport. Thank you to Kirsty Coventry, Jane Thornton and all those in the working group for a clear, evidence based policy. @iocmedia

Something to note: The IOC Is confirming here that Imane Khelif will not be eligible for female Olympic categories, and that Khelif had a distinct biological advantage over his female competitors. He has to be stripped of his medals for this to mean anything.

"more directly align with the gender they identify as" That's funny cause the most commonly cited study by trans activists actually concluded that the brain of transwomen, despite a slight shift, was still ultimately CLOSER to a typical male brain than to a typical female brain.

Hi @TheatreSpoonie , females with PCOS have ovaries. And their T levels, although higher than typical, do not even come close to reaching the male range. The high T that Semenya and Khelif have is not coming from their ovaries, but from their balls.
PCOS is a condition many women have that causes high levels of testosterone. That doesn't make them men or male.
