(WXYZ) â Here in Metro Detroit, you have many choices for news among local stations, newspapers, networks, and cable news. There are similarities and major differences.
You can get your news on your phone, on your TV, on a streaming device. But who is sending you that news can be vastly different.
âLocal news is strong in presenting factual cases of whatâs actually going on,â says Dustin Carnahan, a Michigan State University Assistant Professor in Communications and Politics.
dimorphic continuum is mashed into a
binary categorisation. Some pretty shitty treatment of people who might not be close to one of the poles, when only transwomen are supposed to be treated shittily.
The earth has two geographic poles. But almost nobody is at the north pole or the south pole .
weka …
are you saying that you believe sex is a spectrum that sits between two poles?
By all means talk about the fairness with Semenya. I haven t looked at her situation closely so would be interested to hear ideas on how it can be resolved. But intersex and trans people aren t the same, so I m just not sure what that has to do with opening up women s sports to males. If you want to make a case for desegregating sport by sex, please do. Otherwise as far as I can see the argument is that some males should be allowed to compete against any and all females, irrespective of fairness to women. Understandably, a lot of women aren t too happy about that.
