    It’s quite literally impossible to do any study in chemistry and biology, given the abundance if trans- and cis- molecules. This is the correct label to describe the spatial organisation of the molecule in the space it occupies (bonds and their relstive effect on the structure if the molecule). If you do chemistry you must use these terms.

    This is not a mistake. Destroying science is the point, transphobia is an excuse.

    Someone tell them microphones can be described as a transducer, maybe they’ll quieten down. I guess all combustion engines , furnaces and motors / generators are too technically.

    they really implemented a regex filter on scientific papers ? lol that’s beyond idiocy

    but hey at least the voters identify with the main idiot in charge

    Transformer-coupled transimpedance transistor amplifiers are also verboten.

      They should remove the transmission from their cars, just weld the engine directly to a wheel, not efficiënt but it won’t turn the boys into girls.

        No, they need to stop using transportation altogether. I’d love to see a trend of repugnicans cutting off their legs to “own the libs.”

        No it’s just stupid, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Japan were all fascistic and could be described as a cavalcade of idiots. A good example is Germany’s so called wonder weapons where the only one which was both effective and decently cheap was the V1 rocket, everything else was a waste of time and effort that if any other country did would’ve gotten someone shot.

    dumbfucks are using regex improperly.

    they’re using /.*(trans).*/ instead of /\s{1,}(trans)[- (sexual|[fe]*male)]*\s{1,}/

    Cis and trans are also very commonly used to describe bonds in chemistry. Cis bonds are both on the same side, trans bonds point in opposite directions (think trans-fats). That’s a rudimentary explanation but the point is cis and trans have been used in the sciences long before trans people were discussed.

    So silly to lose grants over, even if the research was actually about cis and trans humans.

      ‘cis’ being the opposite of ‘trans’ in regards to gender is literally borrowed from chemistry
