It's almost as if jokes are subjective... As I pointed out, the overwhelming majority enjoyed the special.

Assault is still legal and no judge or law enforcement officer is going to say "Oh, you say you belong in this restroom? Then carry on with your assault." The fact that I can count the number of verified cases of people invading women's spaces, assaulting them, and claiming to be trans on one hand doesn't help matters.
It's also illegal to hijack a plane, but we don't sit around and wait till it happens, we take preventive measures to ensure peoples safety.

And I didn't even say I wanted him silenced in that thread. Jessie Gender's video raised enough good points to make me think it should at least stay on the platform, and even before that, I pointed out that he could easily just release it himself if Netflix pulls it (Louis CK has done so multiple times, to great success).
If it was a significant enough of a number, wouldn't we see that reflected in the reviews? Like instead of a 95% rating, more of a 70% rating?

And also, funny thing about trans athletes: they're allowed to compete not merely out of some attack of human decency, but because it turns out that once you go on hormones (especially if you do so for long enough), the physical advantages of being assigned male at birth end up getting neutralised by the effects of testosterone blockers and estrogen. When going on hormones causes a competitive runner to instantly go from 9.5-minute miles to 11-minute miles, that's something to take note of
That's not really anything to take note of, a 9.5 minute mile is slow as hell, for ANYBODY, especially an athlete, are they testing asthma patients? In the army I was running TWO miles in under 12 minutes, and I seen guys do it in under 9, and were not talking professional athletes.
Why are the most out of shape people always used to try and prove transgenders have no advantage?
