The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

knighttof3: 1. Competing with bio female athletes

Currently, more than 480,000 students compete as National Collegiate Athletic Association athletes. 50 out of the 480,000 are transgender athletes who openly compete in college sports.

So, 50 out of 480,000.

More than 8 million students compete in high school athletics.

Of the 15 transgender athletes competing in high school sports, only two are transgender girls according to the Associated Press.

There are more laws banning transgender athletes in the U.S. than there are transgender athletes.

knighttof3: 2. Same housing as female prisoners

Addressed upthread.

knighttof3: 3. Insisting on others memorizing their chosen pronouns that are not obvious.

I've never had anyone "insist" that I memorize their chosen pronouns. I don't think anyone actually would do so unless you're belittling their choices. Again, we discussed this upthread but why is this a big deal? If anything, it's a small courtesy that costs you nothing to comply.
