That‘s why I don’t trust crime statistics anymore. Although women‘s rates are already very low compared to men‘s, the fact that many TiMs are counted as women now, too, means that actual women‘s statistics are even lower.

[dominiq-e]

my fellow radfems. the Reduxx article covering Imane Khelif cited a Hungarian nationalist and conservative “news” source, Magyar Nemzet. would you trust info from Fox News? that’s how reliable this source is. please take their info with a MASSIVE grain of salt.

nobody is infallible, especially when “radfem” sources cite conservative nationalist sources.

this is the man declaring Khelif is a man btw. a criminal in more ways than one.

Meanwhile in the Netherlands...

The government-backed Dutch Human Rights Institute has come to the defense of a trans-identified male who reported a woman to police for requesting he stay out of women’s spaces. Alexandra Erné regularly posts exhibitionist and BDSM photos on publicly-accessible websites.

On November 8, the Institute issued a statement asserting that violence against women impacted victims based on “gender identity” and “gender expression” rather than biological sex.

In response, women's right activist Lydia Daniel wrote: “Men who admit that they get a kick out of voyeurism and exhibitionism given access to our locker room, THAT is also violence,” she said, emphasizing her point by uploading some fetish photos first posted by Erné. “You did that. And it is inequality based on sex, not gender. You can’t even name what’s going wrong.”

Bonus: on Alexandra's online profile we can read they are a "demisexual lesbian woman" with various kinks including exhibitionism.

(PS: And of course, autogynephilia does not exist. This is just the poor misunderstood soul of a lesbian female that accidently ended up in the body of a straight male because of some mysterious soul swap at birth.)

Barry McGuigan rips into Olympics bosses after female boxing controversy

"Adieu Paris.

I came here when I saw a man punch a woman on live TV.

Imane Khelif will do it again today.

I will leave you with this from former World Boxing Champion Barry McGuigan:

“The situation is one catastrophic blow from tragedy.. IOC playing God.”

STOP THE FIGHT! -John James, Twitter

The European Vice President of the World Boxing Organization has come forward to confirm that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif is male.

"István Kovács says he warned the Olympic Committee about several male boxers in the women's category, but nothing was done." REDUXX

The International Olympic Committee is in deep shit. The lawsuits are going to be brutal.

Alyssa Tirrell at MMFA:

Four competitors have forfeited matches against San Jose State University's women's volleyball team this season. While none of the teams have confirmed the reason for their forfeits, the decisions seem to have been motivated by right-wing media claims that a San Jose athlete is transgender. The forfeits have become the latest rallying cry for OutKick host Riley Gaines in her efforts to bar trans women from competition. Right-wing media claims that San Jose State University volleyball player Blaire Fleming is trans began in April with a report from Reduxx. The report investigated Fleming's online and athletic record, attempting to determine when Fleming had transitioned and claiming that she had moved from North Carolina to avoid that state's recent restrictions on trans athletes. After publishing Fleming's alleged deadname in the opening sentence, Reduxx continued to misgender her throughout. 

The following week saw several right-wing outlets — including OutKick, Breitbart, and Fox News — parrot Reduxx's claims, consistently deadnaming and misgendering Fleming as well.  While Fleming has played in the NCAA Division I for three seasons, first at Coastal Carolina University and subsequently at San Jose, she “has never made any public statement regarding her gender identity.” Regardless, the NCAA does not unilaterally bar trans players from competition, instead opting for a “sport-by-sport approach” that “preserves opportunity for transgender student-athletes while balancing fairness, inclusion and safety for all who compete.” The organization's Transgender Student Participation Policy for this year shows that trans women who comply with USA Volleyball regulations can compete in the division.  As the fall season began this September, right-wing media revived speculation about Fleming's gender identity, alleging that she possessed an unfair advantage and posed a safety risk to other athletes. Gaines' home outlet OutKick published several articles asserting such claims, and Gaines herself was quoted as an expert in other coverage of the issue. 

[...] Allegations about Fleming’s identity were further inflamed when her teammate and former roommate joined a class action lawsuit against the NCAA seeking to bar trans women from competition. The suit, spearheaded by Gaines and the Independent Council on Women's Sports (sometimes referred to as “ICONS”), echoed in court filings what right-wing media had been alleging about Fleming's identity in the press.  Gaines and ICONS then sent a letter to the Mountain West Conference urging more teams to forfeit matches against San Jose State in protest of Fleming's inclusion. The letter was published as an exclusive at OutKick and has been followed by three additional forfeits — by Boise State, University of Wyoming, and Utah State University — all of which have been praised by Gaines. 

Gaines has continued to urge upcoming competitors to forfeit their matches against San Jose, even indicating that she would pay athletes who refuse to play. In February of this year, Gaines apparently compensated a billiards player under the same terms, and she has since praised those who have boycotted trans inclusion. 

[...] More recently, Gaines released a scorecard evaluating candidates’ positions on trans inclusion in women's sports.

Anti-trans extremist Outkick contributor Riley “5th Place Crybaby” Gaines’s crusade causing at least 5 teams to forfeit games against San José State University’s women’s volleyball team over the alleged trans player is pure sore loser transphobia.

Was on my Twitter for not even 5 minutes...but y'all don't wanna believe it.

You're not doing yourselves a favor. Just don't show up in public anymore. Shut the hell up about your pronouns, leave that disgusting flag at home and leave children and women alone. You're not wanted anywhere, in some countries it's even worse for you than that. Don't push it too far or you will pay the price. I could flood my Tumblr with posts like this. How much proof do you need in order to accept the fact that you are actively turning everyone against you? It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

Poor France...

Did NOT see that coming

A misogynistic homophobic delusional twunt who had an actual same sex loving woman, an adult human female who loves/ is attracted to the same sex AKA a lesbian, removed from Pride.org is de-transitioning.

While I applaud the bravery it takes to leave the religion of transgenderism HE has a very long way to go to atone for the damage HE has done by doing the bidding of the cult of gender.

Just in time for May 3 being World Press Freedom Day a story about the Australian government warning women for correctly sexing a man

An Australian woman was reported to police after making posts on social media about a male who identifies as transgender participating in the women’s football league. Kirralie Smith was visited by New South Wales Police after speaking to media about Riley Dennis, a trans activist who had been the subject of mass complaint last month after reportedly injuring female players. 

Police visited Smith on March 30 and handed her an Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) requiring that she does not discuss or approach Dennis – despite the fact that Smith lives over 200 miles from Dennis. The AVO acts as an interim order that will stand until a hearing later this month, at which point the court will decide whether it is justified. 

Smith, a spokeswoman with an organization established to combat gender ideology, has been a vocal critic regarding gender self-identification in sports. Earlier this year, Smith mobilized supporters to participate in an email campaign that resulted in a total of over 12,000 complaints being submitted to authorities at Football New South Wales (FNSW). The complaints were largely related to Dennis, who is alleged to have injured female players at a match in March.

Speaking with Reduxx, Smith explained that she believed the AVO was carried out in response to social media posts she had made specifically highlighting Dennis’ participation in women’s competitions.

Included among the stipulations of the AVO lodged against Smith by Dennis are prohibitions against electronic harassment. As a result, her statements on social media have come under legal scrutiny and, in some cases, have been censored by an arm of the Australian government dedicated to combatting “cyber abuse.”

On February 20, Smith’s public Facebook page was removed at the request of Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant. Smith had set up the page in 2016 and used the platform to advocate for the rights of women and girls being harmed by gender identity policies. At the time of its deletion, Smith’s page had over 47,000 followers.

Smith expressed her shock and incredulity at the situation. If the court decides that the AVO is justified and that she has taken actions which breach the order, Smith could potentially have criminal charges leveled against her. However, she emphasized that she has received an outpouring of support. “One good thing to come out of these difficulties is the way it draws women together. It isn’t about left or right, ethnicity or anything else. We are women and I now get to call some friends that I otherwise wouldn’t. Beauty from ashes,” Smith says.

The actions taken against Smith by eSafety Commissioner Grant are not the first instances of a government-endorsed push to digitally protect Dennis.

Last week, Reduxx was contacted by the eSafety Commissioner and advised to censor or delete an article naming Dennis as having been the subject of complaint after he was alleged to have injured female players during a match in March.

In the article targeted by the eSafety Commissioner, Reduxx had revealed that Dennis was one of as many as five trans-identified male players currently competing against women in Football New South Wales competitions. An initial report from The Daily Mail Australia had chosen not to identify him when reporting on the injuries he was alleged to have caused, censoring images of him and declining to provide his name. However, Reduxx confirmed the player’s identity using the censored images from The Daily Mail Australia report and cross-referencing them to Dennis’ social media.

Dennis was a popular trans activist YouTuber who amassed 113,000 subscribers on the platform. He has since stopped creating content but, during the height of his internet career, he received backlash for a controversial video in which he called “genital preferences” transphobic.

The video, titled Your Dating ‘Preferences’ Might Be Discriminatory and released in 2017, prompted outrage from lesbians who felt Dennis was attempting to guilt them into having sexual relationships with males.

In the video, Dennis, who identifies as a “transgender lesbian,” implied that sexual orientation is caused by societal prejudices and that it is discriminatory to exclude members of the opposite sex from your dating preferences if you are homosexual. Dennis deleted the video following widespread criticism.

In addition to Smith and Reduxx, pro-woman Reddit alternative Ovarit also received a censorship notice from the eSafety Commissioner.

Ovarit posted the full contents of the email they had received to their platform. Amongst the grievances the eSafety Commissioner listed, Ovarit was warned because its users had “referred to Riley Dennis’ first name as ‘Rapey’ instead of “Riley” and have referred to her surname as ‘Penis’ instead of ‘Dennis.'”

The eSafety Commissioner targeted individual Ovarit users in its email to the platform, and appears to be demanding the users either have their comments deleted or be suspended. The email ends: “Notwithstanding this request for removal, eSafety reserves the option of exercising our regulatory options under the Online Safety Act 2021 (Cth).”

In addition to the censorship experienced by Smith, Reduxx, and Ovarit, concerned citizens and parents who have been participating in online discussions of Football New South Wales’ (FNSW) gender self-identification policy have been sent threatening “notices” urging them to remove social media posts.

A community that opposes the admission of males into female sports categories has congregated at the Facebook-based NSW NPL Banter Page. 

A representative for the page spoke anonymously with Reduxx to confirm that there had been multiple reports from concerned individuals that the sporting authority had been warning critics that they may be “sanctioned” for their comments and posts on social media.

The NSW NPL Banter administrator was also sent an email notification of an “investigation” that FNSW claims to have opened into posts and comments made on the page. It stated that, according to 2023 FNSW’s Social Media Policy, a member of the organization “must not make public or media comment (including via social media) which is detrimental to Football New South Wales, Football Australia, their commercial partners or to the interests of the game.”

The message specified two posts which depicted “a participant with a phallus photoshopped onto their body” alongside the word “unacceptable” as evidence to support the investigation. It was further stated that comments considered subject to removal include those which “criticize” Football NSW, members or participants, or its policies.

The page’s creator also told Reduxx that, despite several attempts to share the article naming Dennis as a man playing on a women’s team, such posts were repeatedly deleted. 

“We had put the article up on our Facebook page and it was deleted three times – after we had successfully challenged its removal two times previously,” the administrator said.

In the past few months, the page has published several posts critical of FNSW’s policy allowing men to compete against women. Though some have remained, many have been removed.

“Biological adult males and it’s not just one, it is several, are playing in NSW women’s state league competitions, which contain teenage girls and young women. Shame on those clubs, who have discarded any morals they might have had, just to sign these things, so as to be able to win, where’s the dignity? You put winning above respect for the competition,” the NSW NPL Banter Page wrote in a now-deleted post last month.

Responses to posts made on the page are overwhelmingly sympathetic to women and girls being forced to compete against men.

“I feel sorry for our young women who are at increased risk of injury and losing opportunities,” read one comment.

Referring specifically to Dennis, another concerned respondent said: “He put two girls in hospital and has scored 9 goals. What a joke.”

“The women who play this sport deserve better than playing with full grown adult men who have transitioned into women… This is cheating at the highest level and it angers me to my core,” said another commenter.

The issue of locker rooms was also brought up, as one woman replied, “What happens to a minor age female who is in the change room with a biologically born male in a senior team? Who is responsible for the duty of care toward those girls both on and off the field?”

On March 31, in response to demands from parents to ban trans-identified males from women’s matches for FNSW, Football Australia doubled down by announcing it would be developing a “transgender and gender-diverse high performance inclusion policy.”

The policy states that Football Australia intends to “deliver LGBTQI+ training and support resources to the football community” by way of a partnership with activist group Pride in Sport. “The aim of this training will be to provide the Australian Football community with a greater understanding of the lived experience of LGBTQI+ communities and their participation in sport,” the statement read.

On April 6, an individual who identifies himself as a referee stated in a forum dedicated to discussing Youth Football matches in the region that members of Football NSW were sent an email announcing an LGBTQ+ Online Training Session to be held the following week.

Erin Reed at Erin In The Morning:

Boise State University released a statement on Saturday indicating that it would forfeit its match against undefeated San Jose State University. The move comes after allegedly transgender volleyball player Blaire Fleming was outed by a Reduxx article and then targeted by her teammate Brooke Slusser, who corroborated Blaire’s outing in legal filings after Blaire spoke privately about her gender identity. Now, Slusser has joined a lawsuit with anti-trans campaigner Riley Gaines in attempting to force the NCAA to disallow transgender athletes from playing on teams of the same gender. In addition, ICONS, the anti-trans organization supporting the lawsuit, sent a letter to the Mountain West Conference’s university president outing Fleming, a move that ultimately led to Boise State’s decision to forfeit the game.

“San Jose State University (SJSU), a California state university and a member of the Mountain West Conference (MWC), along with the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), are allegedly violating federal law by enforcing the NCAA's Transgender Eligibility Policies (TEP). These policies allow Blaire Fleming, a transgender-identifying male, to compete on SJSU's women's volleyball team,” said the letter, falsely asserting that Title IX bans transgender athletes from competing.

Notably, transgender participation in sports does not violate any federal law. Title IX has been interpreted to protect transgender participation in sports, as evidenced by rulings from federal judges in the 9th Circuit area of jurisdiction, which covers states like California and Idaho. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals itself has ruled that transgender athletes can continue to participate in response to ongoing court cases. Title IX protections for trans athletes have likewise been affirmed in other circuits, such as the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, which upheld a similar ruling in West Virginia. Fleming originally played in South Carolina but was forced to transfer to California after the state threatened and then later enacted a ban on transgender athletes competing in women’s sports. Upon transferring, she became Slusser’s roommate, according to Slusser’s legal filing. In her lawsuit, Slusser claims that she was unaware Fleming was transgender, a point that challenges the argument that people “can always tell” who is transgender—a common argument against transgender inclusion. Slusser’s legal filing consistently misgenders Fleming throughout.

[...] The complaint, along with various news sites, highlights Fleming’s height of 6'1". For instance, Must Read Alaska describes Blaire as "a physically imposing transgender player" who "is 6'1" and towers over opposing teams." However, a quick glance at the San Jose State University (SJSU) website shows that 7 out of 25 players on the team are 6 feet or taller. Additionally, 11 of Boise State’s players exceed 6 feet in height, with many taller than Blaire. None of these athletes are accused of possessing an unfair advantage, despite their bodies being very similar to Blaire’s in appearance and size. There is no evidence that Blaire, or that most transgender players who have been on hormone therapy for 2+ years, retain a significant advantage over cisgender female athletes in the sport of volleyball. [...] As Slusser and ICONS' lawsuit remains unresolved, the broader landscape for transgender athletes continues to evolve, particularly in states like California, where legal protections are robust. Blaire Fleming's place on the team appears secure for now, but the future of transgender rights, including participation in sports and access to gender-affirming care, is currently in the hands of the Supreme Court, which will rule on the issue of equal protection in the coming months. The outcome of these upcoming rulings will not only impact individual athletes like Blaire but will also shape the rights and recognition of transgender people across the nation for years to come.

Boise State University cowardly forfeited a match all because San José State University had trans woman Blaire Fleming playing a women’s volleyball contest.

Trans men are men. The fact you can't see that is disturbing and hurtful to the trans community.

Damnnnn another one! Thanks for supporting reduxx 💖

It seems almost like u are searching for trans news

Not really. Most of my blog is cute animals and silly stuff and a handful of feminist posts. But if you want, I can pull up some trans news.

Khelif’s Trainer Confirms “Problem With Chromosomes” As Spanish National Boxing Team Commissioner Reveals That Khelif Was Considered Too Dangerous To Train Against Women

"Shocking news out of the Olympic boxing controversy as the Technical Commissioner of the Spanish boxing team reveals that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif was reportedly considered too dangerous for women to train against during a boxing retreat in Spain.

Speaking to Radio Marca, former Olympian boxer and Olympic boxing trainer Rafa Lozano, revealed that he thought the inclusion of Khelif in the women’s category was unjust and dangerous to females. “I don’t see it as fair. Everyone can think what they want, but that’s how I see it,” Lozano said, recalling his observations of the Algerian during a training retreat at the sport centre CAR Blume in Madrid.

“They were doing a retreat at Blume and we couldn’t put her with anyone. We put [Khelif] with Jennifer Fernandez and it hurt her. Whoever we put [Khelif] with was injured.”

Lozano says that to avoid further injury to the women, the coaches ended up pairing Khelif up with Jose Quiles, who is one of Spain’s top male boxers, during the retreat. Quiles, 26 and one of Spain’s top boxers, was considered a more equitable match for Khelif to spar against, with Lozano noting that Khelif was only “even” after being matched against the man..."
