Transgendered Woman Set to Win Olympic Gold in Weightlifting (ideology, implant, bill)

[Joe90]

Damn! - I see the transgender weightlifter got selected,.... now I have to go through with my threat to boycott watching the entire games as a protest over the national olympic body crapping on women's sport.

Hopefully the concept of fairness will creep back into sports, and I be able to watch the next Olympics.

In order to get accepted politically (politicians report to the population) it needs to seem reasonably logical to a good chunk of the population.

There is also a legal dimension to this that also requires a logic test.

EDIT: So you're arguing for something that's illogical? Why would an intelligent person do that?

The IOC and television network broadcasting the games

I am arguing society can't treat the person as a woman everywhere and then try to change up because a game is being played. Even if many pay to watch.

That is oh so WRONG.
To hell with women's suffrage and the liberation, so they could do the same as men, not to be doing it with men in competition.

No wonder they hate GOD for Adam & Eve...
He only created a boy and a girl.

If women don't stand up and speak against a biological male masquerading as a female , beating them in sports, then so be it.

Transgender athletes really need to form their own leagues. We need men’s, women’s and transgender leagues for athletics. It’s the only fair way this can be accomplished.

Everyone is using emotions I think these topics through when we should be following biology and biology alone.

There's no such thing as "transgender" though.

If "transgender" men form their own league it will just be another league of men playing against each other. They would all just happen to have the same mental illness.

Stop using all these anti-science made-up words.

I'm not playing pretend, you are.

You are entertaining the idea that men can turn into women.

It's very anti-science.

I haven't seen female (xx dna) athletes have the courage to stand up and demand males (xy dna) be excluded from their sports.

Until i see adult female athletes en masse willing to fight for themselves, each other, girl athletes to protect exclusively female competitive sports, consequences be damned, I have no sympathy for their plight with trans interlopers.
