A place to post memes relating to the transgender experience.
Rules

- Posts must be trans related.
- No bigotry.
- Do not post or link to pornography.
- If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.
- Posts that assume the viewer’s gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:
[CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc][CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem][CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary][CW: Transphobia][CW: Violence][CW: Weapons/Firearms][CW: Disturbing Imagery]
- Mods can be arbitrary.
Because it apparently has to be said, this community is supportive of all forms of DIY HRT.
Recommendations

[Transfem/Transmasc/Non-binary]
- Include image description when possible.
- Link to source

I am not a health expert, but i remember seeing a study, that tells that personal physiological factors matter in sport more than hormones or sex. Some people just born strong, and some born weak. So its mostly just transphobia that prevents certain people from participating competitively. Unfortunally i always forget to save interesting articles, so i cant give a link, and you are free to not believe me.
Yeah. Basically, if they want to ban trans women from women's sporta for havin an "unfair genetic/biological advantage" over cis women, they'd also have do ban Michael Phelps from any sports because he waa born with measurable advantages like more efficient lungs, some weird shoulder stuff and his muscles tiring more slowly.
