QueerAF newsletter screenshot. Text that reads: Another study has found new evidence that Trans+ athletes have little competitive advantage, concluding there is no evidence “to justify blanket bans”.
A comprehensive study of over 5,000 Trans+ athletes, has found that trans women likely do not have athletic advantages over cisgender women after undergoing hormone therapy. Published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, it found that while trans women’ showed higher levels of lean mass than cis women, they had roughly equivalent metrics in lower body strength and oxygen consumption - them

For trans men, the study found that after one to three years of starting hormones, they had less fat, more muscle, and greater strength. However, researchers did state that they had focused on physiological factors, and that more work on the "social, psychological and cultural factors" would also be of value - The Independent

Researchers found no evidence "to justify blanket bans" and that the data doesn’t support the prevalent 'inherent athletic advantage theories'

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

Can't fuckin' believe I'm doing this but here goes: Twitter is a mind prison, a true jail of career advancement. I stopped posting on there and within months I became the CEO of The Onion and I'm not kidding. Went back on last year, felt worse, then left again.

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.

“The anti-trans machine is co-ordinated and funded by dark money.” Highlighted words emphasise “co-ordinated” and “dark money.” Below, text reads: “We pledge to: investigate and expose them.”

LGB Alliance - a group focused on spreading anti-trans sentiment - reported annual income of over £550,000, more than 90% of it from donations.

We’re asking for a fraction of that to expose the dark money behind this movement 👇

I will say it is kind of weird how high profile transphobes who are Just Very Concerned About The Safety Of Children universally tend to have at most 2 degrees of separation from Jeffrey Epstein

The researchers found that there was no evidence "to justify blanket bans" and called for policies to "remain dynamic, guided by evolving evidence and ethical imperatives"

The Venn diagram between the UK Gender Critical movement and being a nonce/nonce-adjacent really is just a circle isn't it?

You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

Meet the mastermind behind Trump’s definition of "woman" May Mailman’s anti-trans crusade could threaten gender equality for all.

Trans people were the proving grounds to normalize the made up term "biological sex"to roll back decades of progress on gender equality. When you get bioessentialist language, suddenly everything from gender roles to marriage becomes an argument about "biology."

London talk

the title of my talk October 25 in London, audience "500, 35 pounds paid attendance each

"An Evening on Evolutionary Biology: An overview covering Feminism, Transgender, Homosexuality and Honor Killings."

$3000 for me (i will already be in London paid for by Imperial College) and an almost certain corporate $3000 add on

just as you outlined-this will create an immediate internet wave especially in the UK with coverage in all the major newspapers and so on

anyway i will concentrate on it, to the exclusion of individual pieces at the moment

all best

I'm not being facetious. Epstein was apparently giving talking points to the people pushing anti trans rhetoric in the UK.
