Are downvotes disabled here? If so, why?

The article says that the target of the complaint wasn't even told about it, so how can she possibly have been "fucked over" or "traumatized" by it?

You said that "this" is "dumb shit," and I asked what the problem was here. Your reply didn't address this specific incident at all.

I don't think any of that answered my question.

What's dumb about this, exactly? There are significant differences in strength, speed, flexibility, etc. between biological males and females. That may be an inconvenient truth for those who want to change their social gender (which I 100% support, btw) but it's nonetheless true.

And if you're going to have separate leagues to promote fair physical competition (which may or may not be a good idea, I'm agnostic on the matter) then investigating a person's biological sex is going to be part of the process sometimes. Based solely on the article, it sounds to me like the administrators here did it in a very sensitive and privacy-preserving way.

So, sincere question - what do you think is the problem here?

Why, it's almost as though the media storm constantly making a huge deal about gender issues is doing more to divide people than it's doing to promote equality. Shocking.

It's abominable that Signal still requires a phone number.

Thanks, I knew I had to just be missing something

 

Just curious, as I can't seem to find a list anywhere. I'm only able to look on mobile at the moment, so maybe I'm overlooking something?
