Episode 99: Burned on Bluesky for Advocating Fairness in Women's Sports & Brief Chat On Lesbian Visibility (Solo Cast)

In this ep, I talk about my first experience getting flamed on Bluesky after advocating for fairness and safety in women’s sports. It's a heated topic ya know, caring about the safety and rights of women and girls, especially in the LGBTQ+ and trans activist community, where that’s seen as a no-no. I talk about the smearing backlash I received for standing up for the protection of female athletes. Plus, I touch on the importance of lesbian visibility and the ongoing fight for our right to exist and be recognized, without being erased or silenced.

New York Times poll finds 79% of Americans want to ban men who ‘identify’ as women from competing against females in sports UP from 62% in 2021 & 67% in 2023 (Gallop). https://www.campusreform.org/article/new-york-times-poll-finds-majority-americans-want-ban-men-identify-women-joining-female-sports-/27323

Here's the actual poll on it's own for those who want to see the results directly: January 2025 New York Times/Ipsos poll found that 79% of Americans support restricting transgender athletes from competing in women's sports. 94% of Republicans 67% of Democrats & 64% of Independents & other political persuasions: https://static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/documenttools/f548560f100205ef/e656ddda-full.pdf

And here’s a 2023 Gallup poll showing that Americans had already seen enough to recognize how unfair it is for (male) trans women to compete against girls/women.
