In commemoration of the upcoming Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), President Joe Biden issued a statement praising trans people’s contributions to society and describing actions his administration has taken to counter transphobic bullying and extremism. Additionally, many members of Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) also issued their own statements affirming that community health depends on supporting trans people too.

“Transgender Americans are part of the fabric of our Nation,” Biden wrote in his statement. “Whether serving their communities or in the military, raising families or running businesses, they help America thrive. They deserve, and are entitled to, the same rights and freedoms as every other American, including the most fundamental freedom to be their true selves.”

    genetic men is not a widely used term by anyone except terfs. find me a lgbtq org or style guide that suggests that terminology if you can, but you can’t. you’ll definitely find orgs that tell you not to use that term.

          It refers to biological sex which you have been pretending is offensive. It’s not. You know it’s not. There simply is no way you are truly this oblivious.

            referring to people as genetic men is offensive. using specific terms is not.

            “people who have undergone a testosterone dominant puberty” would be accurate to what you’re referring to. but you kept bringing up the penis which is completely irrelevant, and just a transphobic red flag

            I said this ages ago and you ignored it bc you’re a terf asshole

              Alright, it is clear that you are not genuine. There is obviously no way anyone expects anyone else to write out that whole phrase instead of saying “genetic male”. The scientific literature disagrees with you, common English language usage disagrees with you, and the trans community disagrees with you. You are by yourself. It can’t be that you actually think this way.

                I told you to look up a better phrase, because a trans health centered org would have the best terminology , you didn’t even read my original comments you just got triggered when I called you a terf. You’re a DUMB ASS

                  In the long run, you lose. You are a dinosaur. There is no place for your anti-trans games in a progressive future. There will always be people different from you. You can’t stop that, you will be better off if you just get used to it.
