Reddit comment with research citations of multiple studies showing a reduction in suicidal ideation with acceptance and transitioning Original link: https://www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/comments/74vmz2/comment/do1t9uj Mirror https://archive.fo/jTTAz Another citation I found relevant to this issue is this: European Society of Endocrinology.

Trans women have no advantage over cisgender female athletes, report finds • GCN | Ghostarchive
The report reviews key medical findings, testosterone research, and myths about trans athletes that have been circulated in sport. A new report commissioned by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport demonstrates that trans female athletes have no inherent advantage over their cisgender counterparts in elite sport. The report includes an overview of 2011-2021 research about key medical findings, testosterone effects on the body, the history of gender categories in sports, myths about trans athletes, and accounts of discrimination and violence against trans women.

Seeing how they get things wrong about entire civilizations all the damn time, I don't think I'd give a shit about what they think my or anyone else's genders were. I mean, all "there are two genders" arguments are stupid, but somehow this was the stupidest I've come across.

Male gender stereotypes leading to me experiencing gender confusion
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.perthchat.org/post/44196 > I'm (prob) a cis male. > > I was unsure about my gender. Male gender (where i live) is big on like liberatarian principles (ex toxic masculinity) and i don't have the same real aspirations of like being a big ceo and, working out a lot, hordes of hook ups etc. What also added to my confusion was, when talking to some people about the fact that i experience emotional pain and getting called a nicer versions of pussy. > > I think i'm cis male who doesnt have (some?) typical masculinity goals. > > Figure someone might be interested in this story.

Why is deadnaming specific to trans people rather than all people who change names?
Like wouldn't it be aggravating to be called by your old name, no matter what?
