  • Imagine not being able to tell the difference between “I don’t believe half of their users are trans” and “I don’t believe in their users being trans”.

    Demographics isn’t transphobic. Using trans people as a shield from criticism is.

    EDIT: I looked over the October survey. The graphs aren’t the cleanest but the data is there: 15% of all asked identified as trans, with another 9% as trans non-binary. A sample size of 600 to the 2300 monthly users is also really good, so the data ought to be very representative.

    Please don’t actually use them as sunglasses. You can buy cheap UV film online that you can stick on em. Hell, any pair of cheap sunglasses is usually UV coated.

    As the above user already said, your pupils will dilate because they will think there’s less light, letting more UV in. At best, it will cancel out whatever is blocked by them. At worst, you will end up with more UV reaching your eyes.

    Cataracts can only be treated by surgery. Please don’t cook your eyeballs, especially when you can so easily have complete UV protection.
