A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Chromosomes absolutely determine sex characteristics for most people, there are many many exceptions, but none that really apply to trans folk.

It still applies to trans people. They don't get to ignore science. For the large majority of the population, you are XX and XY. It's just the way it works in biology.

That is blatant transphobia.

No, that is his opinion. I don't agree with him, as I clearly stated, but it is not transphobia. Even if it was, that is protected speech under the law. It isn't illegal to be transphobic. According to the article, this was never discussed in the classroom.

Tell me friend, how often do you swab your friends and grab a petri dish to check their chromosomes before dressing mister or misses?

You can just tell by looking or listening. Hasn't failed me in 50 years.
