This is huge. Thank you!

Something I find really interesting about this, is how unlikely it'd be that the training data skews that heavily toward men. I wonder why that is, not like whoever made the model could tell us since they barely understand it.

Hi, you can believe what you want to believe, but I wish I pursued care when I was younger (began questioning at the onset of puberty) rather than transitioning at 25.

The most commonly used model is puberty blockers with parental consent up until 16 and then HRT only with parental consent at 16.

Forcing a child to undergo a puberty that they do not want, is cruel!

Children do not choose to transition because they think it's cool to do so. They still get bullied for it. At least set them up to have a more stable adulthood.

Genuinely. Proton expanding is a good thing in my eyes at least in this stage. They offer their services at a pretty hefty, but reasonable price compared to others, and don't have a free offering for certain things they run. Their incentive to operate is continuing what they were built on and getting better.

Australia has a really good track record in that regard. So it's nice to see this as well

Is it how they talk on those apps? Sure.

Is it how a lot of men just talk outright? Yeah, and it's insane. The messages my partner (cis) and I (trans) have gotten on Instagram even are so out of pocket.

I'll gladly accept the lack of understanding of boundaries, because it makes the red flags obvious from the start.

I'll add that it's very, very nice to see a rational, "respectful" reaction to being told they are trans though. Too many men who jump to invalidating gender and outright transphobia out there. Especially the ones who are only afraid of being seen as gay.

It's also already happening. Waymo admitted to needing wayyyy more manual interventions than they let on

They're pretty few and far between in the Northeast. Not to say they don't exist, but they're far from common.

This is a case of tone not coming across text well 😅

I'm agreeing with you

[–] Ashe@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

It's literally slur reclamation. The same way you'll find the f slur in queer spaces sometimes but not others. Referring to trans people as "transgenders" or even just referring to someone as "a trans" is actively used in an extremely hateful way frequently. If you're cis, it might be a good idea to just accept that people don't like to be referred to that way.

Just an idea.

Wait until you learn about this extreme thing called sublimation, it's going to blow your mind....

Oh it's not directly one of the three states? Plasma isn't real? I better learn my basics again.

Trans people have literally been murdered as a direct, traceable result of her "free speech". Several more people have been victims of harassment campaigns. She has actively engaged in Holocaust denial.

It's only cryptic because it's something that requires nuance, and to be addressed on a case by case basis. It's safe to say that we have crossed the line and then some
