Thread: So, came across Giggle, a SM platform for girls of all ages. Which seemed great because I spend a lot of time trying to provide STEM mentorship to #WomenWhoCode

Unfortunately it seems the founder, @salltweets doesn't believe #TransWomenAreWomen?
At any rate, the app touted a "Gender verification system", and curious, I wanted to know what that entailed.

It entails taking a photo, obviously from within the app, no uploading. The instructions request a passport style photo. No glasses, neutral face, hair pushed back.
I don't have the one I submitted, since it was all in app, but it was basically this.

I was validated. So, either the tech doesn't work, or I'm a woman.

I think both are true.
