@vickicon145 @vincesaylor @KUTV2News That's the issue, is that people aren't hearing correct information.
Hormone therapy changes all of that. Bone mass and all. Hormone blockers are typically started before secondary sex characteristics are there which prevent them from occuring & changes everything that DID occur
@vincesaylor @vickicon145 @KUTV2News I also happen to have a transgender child. They are almost 17 years old. Assigned male at birth.
They have been taking testosterone blockers for about 1.5yrs.
They have the testosterone, estrogen, bone mass & muscle mass, of a 12 year old cis GIRL.
Shown by labs and scans.
@vincesaylor @vickicon145 @KUTV2News However I'll help you.
There is a PLETHORA of information online from valid resources. Like this from the Mayo clinic that is going to tell you what hormone blocking does, and when it's usually started, and what 2ndary gender characteristics are changed

@vincesaylor @vickicon145 @KUTV2News If a male blocks their testosterone to a normal cis females level - what do you imagine that does?
Nothing?
Go educate YOURSELF! For hell's sake. Don't be ignorant and then tell someone else to do your research FOR YOU. Lol.
@rig01001@TheHawzzy@MarilenaGironda@KUTV2News What's really pathetic is that y'all disrespect cis girls so much that you're telling them they have no chance against trans athletes on the same biological spectrum as them, and refuse to let them show everyone wrong.
I am a cis female and cis female ARE NOT WEAK!
@rig01001@TheHawzzy@MarilenaGironda@KUTV2News That happened with ONE GIRL and she wouldn't even have been in 3rd place without the transgender athletes there!
SHE WAS IN 6TH PLACE for hell's sake! Behind cis girls too! Her ass didn't train hard enough! End of story!
@ziziofthedead I am Legend.
*Shudder*
My hubby was watching it and I said "it's ok I'll just read my book" ... Guess who kept looking at the screen?!
NEVER AGAIN!
π±π±π±π± I don't do horror flicks. Life is scary enough!
@Rosie Yeah but some Americans apparently watched it through "drunk glasses" and couldn't tell who they were looking at, doing the insurrection.

@AnaAnasanchez13@KUTV2News@GovCox@SpencerJCox@DeidreHenderson Unfortunately people don't care how it makes the LGBTQIA+ community feel.
They just want to "fix" a problem that isn't even there, in order to further push down the LGBTQIA+ community, because they can't handle the support the community is getting.
@kent_hardcastle@KUTV2News Okay so are you going cover the cost of chromosomal arrays with taxpayer dollars?
Because it's not as simple as your 7th grade basic biology class, has lead you to believe.
There are and always have been, chromosomal genders beyond simply "Male" and "female".
@abasc13@KUTV2News You could argue that but it's an idiotic argument and it can be proven that their is NO advantage over cis females by anyone transitioning to female.
None.
@rig01001@TheHawzzy@MarilenaGironda@KUTV2News Also, just an FYI - males transitioning to female block their testosterone levels and LOSE both muscle and bone mass in that process.
Not that it has to be - but - it's been proven by labs and scans and you can literally SEE the change in appearance happen.
@TheHawzzy@MarilenaGironda@KUTV2News That's not accurate.
Transgender hormones are kept at the levels proper for the gender they are transitioning to.
Doctors make sure of that and it's backed up by labs and scans including total bone mass.
There is ZERO advantage there.
@KidMcRib@KUTV2News There aren't many at all.
And as a Mom of a non-binary kiddo, I can tell you without question backed by labs and scans, that my 16 year assigned male at birth kiddo - has ZERO advantage over ANY born female OR MALE in their age group, sports wise.
This isn't even an issue.
@KUTV2News That's against title IX and it's known.
There is no business being hell bent on what's between a person's legs. Let the damn kids play folks.
This is ridiculous.
@jayhood73 Yeah with our younger 2 kids we learned that. The older 2 went with "the normal" general meal time guidelines, but these younger two kids don't do conformity. π They eat when they wanna.
