Foreword

As of this writing, many people (and governments) are hostile towards the trans community. Fuelling much of this hate is an ocean of disinformation, largely relying on a few key lies or misrepresentations.

We believe the best way to combat this disinformation is through education. This article contains all our research on relevant disinformation to date.

A common talking point pushed by those who seek to limit trans folks' rights is the idea that transitioning is a new concept. Often, they combine this rhetoric with claims of a "social contagion", and conspiracy theories about Big Pharma.

The discussion regarding whether we should include trans folks in our sports (and how to categorise them) is long-running and divisive.

Before we can get into the discussion proper, though, we'll need to talk about the history of sex-based segregation in sports.

As of this writing, the plural community is often subject to discrimination based on disinformation, including between the systems that are part of it.

We believe that the best way to combat disinformation is through education. This article contains several common pieces of disinformation, and explores the truths that disprove them.
