Some good talking points (from Trans Equality):
Recent NCAA numbers show 226,212 student-athletes competing in NCAA women’s championship sports. NCAA President Charlie Baker told a Senate panel that there are fewer than 10 transgender athletes he is aware of who currently compete in college sports.
Is the most urgent matter for the Senate really to prevent less than 0.004% of NCAA women athletes from playing? Is it vital to national interests that one 11 year old girl in Missouri be prevented from playing softball because she happens to be transgender?
Will this lower the cost of eggs in our markets? Will this bill reduce the cost of housing, or provide housing for the unhoused? Will this bill prevent more senior citizens from becoming homeless? Will this bill reduce strife in the Middle East?
Why, I doubt that this bill will even make our billionaire class much wealthier.
We don’t need big government making blanket regulation of student athletes. Leave this to the experts in sports medicine and the athletic leagues.

Whelp, I was too lazy(add) to get around to finding a new instance before my old instance was shut down (Yeah THAT one). The signs were coming for a long time, I just had other priorities. Now I am trying to recreate my account and connections from there.
So new instance, time for an #introduction post. (I never actually did an introduction post on my old account).
My name is Claire, and I am a #transgender woman. Although I have sort of known I was a woman since early puberty, I didn't accept it and decide to transition until my mid 50s. I have been fully out as a #TransWoman and living my life as a woman since May, 2024. My transition is still ongoing and is a big part of my life. My posts here are going to talk a lot about transition. I talk a lot about my transition in person too. I am still only attracted to women, so that makes me a #lesbian.
Besides being a hot mess of a #trans girl, here's some things about my life:
Posts from this account are intended for a #transgender and/or #queer audience. If you are not #trans or clearly super gay from your post history I won't accept the follow. If you are just interested in my political stuff, follow sfba.social/@techno_serf
