I don’t think I’ll ever get over renowned Star Wars Author Timothy Zahn, creator of Mara Jade and MFING THRAWN looking me dead in the eyes mid conversation and asking:
“can I tell you one of my headcanons?”

it would explain so much about Gotham economics if it turned out the only employers who pay a livable minimum wage are 1) Wayne Enterprises duh, but mainly 2) all of Gotham's assorted villains.
sure henching comes with shitty working conditions, but the benefits package is crazy competitive. they have dental

The reason they make it about men being "biologically superior" to women is because it tricks people into automatically aligning with the idea of these aspects being determined by your sex as the driving factor instead of anything else.
It takes away the biochemical aspect of being human. Testosterone and proteins made you strong, not your Johnson. Neurotransmitters fire the way they do because of internal chemistry and how your body works fundamentally, that gave you a better reaction time you claimed was agility from being a woman.
It brushes the nuance of how complicated our bodies are even when everything "works like normal". Whether it be the default resting state of the person, or their body functioning in a way society deems correct, a person still has infinitely complex processes determining how your body develops and maintains itself. Acknowledging that opens up the possibility to question how we know that "normal" looks the same in everyone. They won't have that.
It serves a triple purpose: Creating the narrative of male supremacy, dismisses concepts fundamental to trans-medicalism (which, regardless of it's ability to apply to each individual, is often the first bridge a layperson crosses to understanding trans identity- it creates a wall where there would otherwise be an imperfect door), and most importantly it simplifies the world and us as people in a way that benefits their narratives.
The endocrine system has more to say on who we are than what's in our pants ever could have, and modern medicine has given room to disagree with the hand it's dealing us like never before.
If taking 3 pills can make someone go from nonfunctional and apathetic to someone tired of waiting for the world to catch up and ready to drag others to tomorrow kicking and screaming- why would you think that doesn't have a physical equivalent as well? Because it does. The fact it's physical is WHY you can't get medicine for it.
The reason HRT is restricted is for the same reason mental health took so long to become a field of science. It's easier for people to notice and pay attention when the changes are visible physically. Seeing someone physically change is much more noticable than the fact they aren't miserable like they had been before.
They can point to HRT and say "look how this changes you, it's bad." then they go and to a person on adderrall claiming "I don't see anything wrong with them, it must be nothing!" without having to process the contradiction of it.
The more we think of our bodies outside of the abstract, the more obvious it becomes how much junk has been shoveled into our heads. No chemicals? It means no nuance, no gender equality, no trans rights, no mental health, and no one seeing how much they have been hurting us for far too long.
Biochemistry doesn't determine your gender, but it does give the best tools to understand what they don't want us to know.
That our sex is secondary, and who we are and what we choose to be is the real important thing. That's the choice they are desperately refusing to let us make.
"do you want women competing against trans athletes" yes? I also want women competing against male athletes. and competing alongside them. because segregating sports by gender is extremely shitty actually?

Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
