Don't listen to the online rhetoric & gaslighting going on. 90% or more is untrue. This distinct 180 pivot from the IOC is an admission of a historical record & incomprehensible abuse by trauma handed down over many years, in our sporting history it is very dark & many actors. Image
The veil has been lifted. There was no science to any of these policies. None, PERIOD. The 2015/16 policy was designed too answer to the legal in Toronto. Period. K Worley was able to jurisdiction outside the CAS, where ‘sex reassignment’ was removed as a prerequisite to sport.
Government participated to hide and protect those individuals national and external that created such enormous harm, enormous collaboration between them to hide it.
There are female athletes with historical harm… the reason this has all come about; it in direct relationship. Why it took 3 years. Most online being discussed is not factual. The historical record is important address, even though it will never be adequately; as survivors need
Need to find peace. Separate of the massive physical and psychological trauma; governments, IF’s, anti-doping persons and organizations who colluded in this over 17years. Much bigger then people think and what this is about, let alone how we got here in 2021, sadly.

@KatyMontgomerie @Scienceofsport @Hazunki @EggAccount1648 @FondOfBeetles Given the scientific research on trans women (especially in sport) is incredibly limited, even if the view of current science presented by the WR Working Group’s policy represents the best consensus view that could exist, the accuracy of this consensus view is far from guaranteed
@KatyMontgomerie @Scienceofsport @Hazunki @EggAccount1648 @FondOfBeetles The WR guidelines developed by Tucker & co justify the ban on every single trans woman playing women’s contact rugby on two grounds: firstly, that the risk of injury is too great; secondly, that there is a retention of meaningful performance advantages to
@KatyMontgomerie @Scienceofsport @Hazunki @EggAccount1648 @FondOfBeetles trans women rugby players compared to cis women rugby players following what is currently considered an acceptable period of appropriate testosterone suppression. (Tucker & co made this assumption without testing a single trans rugby player not one).

What are the symptoms of androgen deficiency?
Adulthood• Mood changes (low mood and irritability)
• Poor concentration
• Low energy
• Reduced muscle strength
• Increased body fat
• Longer time to recover from exercise
• Decreased libido (low interest in sex) Image
• Difficulty getting and keeping erections
• Low semen volume
• Reduced beard or body hair growth
• Breast development (gynaecomastia)
• Hot flushes, sweats
• Osteoporosis (thinning of bones)
Later life (after 60 years)• Mood changes (low mood and irritability)
Nothing performance enhancing there (unlike what Tucker and crew advocate) In fact a male athlete who suffers from androgen deficiency is granted a TUE for T to allow this XY male to bring his T levels up to the same level as his same sex counterparts. Image

If you thought the RDB was bad, wait til you hear about Mark Latham’s anti-trans kids Bill. Last week, we had some rare good news: the Commonwealth Government’s RDB stalled in the Senate, & now seems unlikely to pass before the upcoming federal election. alastairlawrie.net/2022/02/14/if-…
Unfortunately, that relief is short-lived, especially for LGBTIQ people in NSW, because the NSW Government’s response to the Parliamentary Inquiry into Mark Latham’s Education Legislation Amendment (Parental Rights) Bill 2020 –
otherwise known as his anti-trans kids Bill – is expected at any point in the next three weeks, and must be delivered by March 7 (the Monday after Mardi Gras).

The airforce study even though it had many flaws actually confirms the reduction in athletic performance. The reduction doesn't stop after two years eventually HRT takes you completely out of sports. Post operative it's an immediate loss.
This study from the U.S. Air Force looked at trans men and trans women in three fitness tests before and after their transition. The tests were a 1.5-mile run and the number of situps and pushups that can be done in a minute.
After 2 years of hormone therapy, the trans men matched the cis men in the 1.5-mile run and in the number of pushups per minute, and they exceeded the cis men in the number of situps per minute.

To be a fascist, one must support the revolutionary, usually violent overthrow of the entire govt/Constitution, & reject democracy entirely. In 2015, none were comfortable saying Trump went that far.January 6 2021 he incited a violent attack on American democracy he is a fascist.
Trump like the fascist leaders of the past, not only pursues right-wing policies, he has built-up a violent mass-mobilizing parties and paramilitary organizations with the goal of sweeping aside alternative movements and...

Why does Lab & the LNP keep doing the same things that have created the current crisis. Our incarceration rate is ballooning, recidivism is rampant &the costs are now unsustainable. Why do we still think this is a good way? When do we acknowledge the failures and embrace change?
European countries have long re-thought law and order arms races, rejecting the simplistic but populist call to simply lock up offenders and throw away the key. The dividends are being felt, as crime rates and recidivism decline and the cost burden slides with it.
NZ has pioneered “restorative justice” with great success, where many crimes are dealt with by community courts mediated by judges, using closely monitored & strictly supervised diversion programs that steer young offenders to educ &job training instead of addiction & custody.
