@gaynarcan@epistemophagy While there's no poll that I could find for trans women alone, according to NBC News 91% of lgbt women (which includes trans women) voted for Harris compared to only 53% of all women voting for Harris in the same exit poll.

@luxurytrash_@qwertz42069 Yes, but the opposition to that proposition ran against it not on abortion it's protection if trans rights (in particular trans women participating in women's sports) and it still won by a large margin though.
@amesjacq94@SeanForFive And what proof do you have about it being successful? The Republicans have run on this before and have lost, even in red states like Kentucky, so what shows that it's working this time when it hasn't before?
@Christo62230432@ParkerMolloy it isn’t though, Harris, who the republicans have been attacking as mush on trans issues as in immigration, has a 16 point lead on trans issues over Trump, who has been quite clear on his opposition to trans rights. so you’re wrong here.

@TheLogical_1@skarjay92@_Be_not_Afraid What polls are you seeing saying this. The polls I’ve seen show that most people don’t care, and those that among voters who do care about trans rights issues are democrats (who are generally in favor of trans rights). See the following link:

@gaynarcan But could the changes to the health care regs be due to trying to craft regulations that could survive post Dobbs, than any backlash against trans rights, as in states where dems have political power, anti trans bill are not being enacted and pro trans bills are being passed?

@bundleofstyx_ For me, it was when I ended up in a hospital with a serious issue, due to failing to care about my health at all, as due to my gender dysphoria I did not care if I lived or died at the time. Once that happened, I knew I needed to transition, no matter what.
@ControlledBurn@Zoomer_Doomer_ New York is not that rural though, while there are a significant amount of rural land, most of the population is actually urban as most of the population is either downstate , or lives in the cities in upstate.
@dweebs_r_us @piper4missouri But one of the reasons you would have them in the boy’s room is not for trans girls (who do not menstruate as they are AMAB), but for trans boys (who can in some cases can as they are AFAB) Just because it is inconvenient for your argument that trans men and boys exist, they do.
@benjanun_s While the UK has cut public spending since the 2008 financial crisis, the countries that also did so were not the US but the EU as the US has not and in fact increased public spending this is the reason why that the US economy has been faring better than the EU since 2008 crisis
@RSinormus@Kcxiv@BurtMaclin_FBI @BidenHQ The thing is, is that student loan debt including private student loan debt, unlike pretty much any other debt is not dischargeable in bankruptcy outside of extreme circumstances. So unless the law is changed, bankruptcy would offer no relief.
@Dino_HearMeRoar@elaineac122@NeilMackay If the inclusion of trans women was causing large groups of women to feel distress wouldn't it be an important priority for voters though? If only around 2% of voters care about this (which includes both sides of this debate), that seems to show that most women really don't care
@BryanB8@kdnerak33 Here’s the thing though, they aren’t spending their money, they’re spending the money of everybody else who pays taxes as well. I pay school taxes and have no kids, so why should my money as a taxpayer pay for other people’s children to attend religious schools that I oppose.
@TWLadyGrey @lookforward17 @keeganc15@estherzelda0514 Yeah but Bob Casey (who is anti abortion and has supported removing funding from an LGBT center based on an attack from libs of tik tok) goes against progressive politics far more than fetterman does
@keeganc15@estherzelda0514 @TWLadyGrey What has he flip flopped on as a senator? Most of his breaks from the left (such as his stance on I/P, or fracking) are the same as when he was running.
@CEJacksonLaw If single sex restrooms were so important to dignity and opportunities for women, why is it that 99 times out of 100 (even taking into account trans people) when someone is using the restroom of the opposite sex, it is women using the men’s room.
@How86917508@ProfDaveAndress You know if you have a boundary with sharing a public restroom with a trans woman, the way for you to enforce that boundary is for you to avoid public restrooms (as trans women have been using them long before the current moral panic), not the trans person, right?
