It is sort of like the boy who won the girls wrestling championship in Texas. At a certain point common sense needs to prevail. Unfortunately we see another example of PC ruining everything.
Actually, the boy in Texas was a female-to-male transgender on testosterone.
For all the gains women have made in sports over the last two decades it's amazing many of them are going to stand idly by and watch that be obliterated by biological males competing in their sports.
Exactly. Women my age have benefitted SO MUCH from Title Nine. And now we’re allowing trans women to take that hard-earned gain from us. I’m not ok with this one bit.
Something has to be done about this. Maybe have a trans category, I don't know. Some sports bio men can really dominate and doesn't seem to be fair to the bio women. Not sure what the fix is for this.
There’s a fix, and it worked for years and years. Don’t allow biological men to compete in women’s sports. Simple.
I was watching the Nats/Braves game, and all of a sudden, it struck me: All the players were men. So then I changed channels to a different game, and I noticed the same thing: every single player was a man. Not one single woman on the line-up!
So I started to pay more attention this last week, and without fail, there were no women players. And then I had an ephinany: it's because when you get to the very to level of any sport, biological women cannot compete with biological men. Males simply have an innate physiological advantage. A big one. I can't believe I never noticed that before!
Conclusion: No transgendered "women" in sports. Period. Otherwise, every women's team will eventually be made up of transgenders.
Eventually, sanity will prevail.
But for now, it shows how far over the edge we've gone being PC. There is a reasonable allowance that can be made to treat everyone fairly and with dignity but this is sporting competition specifically set up because of the physical advantages between genders.
Laurel Hubbard was born a man and was into weightlifting without much success. However, in her 30s she transitioned to being a woman and now at 41 is dominating women's weightlifting competitions. She just won 2 Golds and a Silver medal in her 3 events including beating out the strongest woman from the most recent commonwealth games.
An organization called "Speak up for women" is arguing that people born as men should not be allowed to compete as women, while others are saying that speak up for women is being discriminatory and hurtful.
Should Laurel Hubbard be allowed to compete in the Olympics with the women?

So, a dude that feels that they are a woman, has entered women's sports and is dominating.
Myself personally, I think it is laughable and I feel sorry for the women competitors that are losing to him.
The left has caused this and there isn't much that can be done or said about it, otherwise you will be labeled a bigot and transphobic.
This is where we are now...not really going to be able to change it. Can't wait until we see more of this !

One of the goals of liberalism is to normalize deviant behavior and it establish it as an accepted norm. This process is pushed until there is no longer a reference point for "normal".
Does it seem odd to anyone how one rarely, if ever, heard of transgender ideas being so publicized and at the forefront of the news until the last five years or so?
If you don't support this transwoman, you are a bigot. Women especially need to step up and support trans in sports! (Even if it means your daughter won't get that scholarship, lol.)
I don't know, I'm seeing far more hatred and disgust over the situation than I am support for it.
