STOCKTON, CA—Cackling as the steps of the dastardly plan crystallized in her mind, local trans teen Brie Chandler told reporters Tuesday that she had hatched a nefarious plot to undergo years of medical treatments and counseling to win at swimming. “It’s oh, so simple: several years of sweet-talking medical…
I’ve heard the same argument from ‘whataboutist’ rightoids from Reddit when they started bitching about Lia Thomas and people blaming Katey Ledecky, a cis woman, for being trans. Also, this same group loves to bitch about Fallon Fox forget about Patricio Manuel, complain about Nyla Rose and twist the story about Mack Beggs.
If your niece loses then maybe you should teach her to lose gratefully rather than just jumping to blame someone else for her shortcomings no matter their gender, height, weight, natural talents, hormone levels, zodiac sign, etcetera
I don’t know any of those names except Katey ledecky.
My niece is a great sport and competes mostly against herself and works on beating her times. I don’t even know how she’d feel about something like that. She’s a great kid and she’d probably grin and bear it.
But I think it’d be horse shit if she had to. We separated men and women’s sports for a reason. We dont let 20 year olds compete in little league. We don’t let Olympians use performance enhancing drugs. Competition and sport needs some bounds for fair play.
Ensuring a level playing field is crucial, acknowledging natural talents and physical differences, while drawing a line at artificial or external enhancements that could skew competition. It’s about maintaining the spirit of fairness and respect in sport, so everyone has the opportunity to compete and excel based on their natural abilities and dedication.
Should we just abolish women’s sport then and have only open competition?
I play women’s sports and we’re fine. Thanks.
At an elite level? Where it’s your source of income? Where you stand to inspire young girls?
If women’s sport is opened to biological males, it is only a matter of time until the top level is entirely dominated by biological males. In most physical sports college men regularly beat women’s world records. It’s just simply not fair.
Yes.
I work like other people.
Coaching and community events.
It’s like you don’t see women who happen to be trans as women.
Maybe your elementary school understanding of this isn’t the best.
