Current science actually shows that trans women perform worse than cis women in several categories and identical in others. Which correlates with the fact that in the 20 years that trans women have been allowed to compete in the olympics, not a single one has made it there. It was a small study and needs to be expanded upon, but is still better evidence than what any of the reactionary bans have.

Here's a link to an article that includes a link to the actual study https://www.outsports.com/2024/4/12/24091267/transgender-athletes-study-research-science-sports-governing-bodies/

It's funny, I enjoyed the demons in Frieren because they weren't just humans of a different skin color but felt truly alien. They are not evil, they don't enjoy killing, they just do. I think there is going to be something to understand about them that we are not going to get until we get the flashback to the Demon King, which I assume will be at the end of the series.

I think what made her extra happy, was Fern being confident enough to suggest that, rather than Frieren asking her to do it.

This section killed me. Sums up my entire high school experience, even though I did not come out until almost 30.

"Even Sam herself starts to wonder if she’s a gay man, because it would definitely explain the queerness she feels all the time. It would also explain why she feels a kinship to the gay community, even though she’s not gay herself. Alas, she was a boy who exclusively liked girls — it didn’t get much more hetero than that."

Such a shame to see Sein leave. I look forward to what the payoff of Gorilla's story is going to end up being wherever the group meets up with Sein again.

So this is the beginning of One Piece airing forever. By the time The One Piece reaches the finale, it will be so old that another studio will start their own adaptation. Maybe Bones will take the 3rd adaptation of One Piece in like 2035-40 or however long this one plans to be.

Looks like we have a full party now. How appropriate that the new priest is also corrupt. And lol Frieren's flirting taking down Himmel.

That's really unfortunate that this happened. Are they planning on moving your posts to a different instance, like lemmy.world, or will they try to get people to come to ani.social for the episode interaction with Shinobu bot?

A well earned viewership, the adaptation has been absolutely amazing.

I had that issue too, apparently the vendor gave me a code for the wrong piece of hardware, either way amd support helped me get the correct code that verified properly.

Impressive that Anya defeated a real villain all on her own and scared him into quitting crime. She's got a bright future that one.

Like, I would 100% be a woman if I could choose.

You know by believing yourself when you write something like this. No cis person would ever say that and mean it.
