[W:91]**Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

You agree it's not a choice. You agree transgender people are born that way? That's what science tells us. Science tells us a transgender woman's brain is born female.

Your "brain scans" objection is stupid. We don't need baby brain scans to know gender dysphoria is biological and neurological. We know a transgender woman's brain is born female. Thus, we know a transgender woman is born female.

Now, you can say she's born half and half. Or you can decide one half is supreme. Ultimately, the question becomes one of mind and body, and which rules over the other. In virtually all cases, we place mind over body. We consider the mind to control the body. We consider the mind superior to the body. As such, transgender women are born female.

It's not a Red Herring. It's something anyone, especially a transgender person, should know.

The issue here is a physical contest, where divisions are made based on physical and developmental characteristics. It's the body that makes the difference in this contest.

The issue here is that a transgender woman is born female and everyone, especially a transgender woman, should know that. To claim a transgender woman is not born female is ignorant. Their brain is born female. Who doesn't know that? One would expect a transgender person, having grown up such, would know that. One would expect a transgender woman to know they've always been a woman.

That's actually not the issue at all. This case centers around the physical differences, the 'body', not the 'brain'.

Only Trolls and Liars ignore the fact that the debate is about the boys biological bodies... not their female mind.
 
Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

Pish. for every Yearwood.. there are hundreds of transgender athletes that no one ever hears of because they are getting their butts kicked by non transgender athletes. In part because of the treatments that transgender people undergo. Which proves the rule... the one transgender athlete that wins the championship.. or the hundred other transgender athlete that no one hears about because they never made the cut?

People aren't thinking this through. They are blinded by their anger and hate. Opening doors for transgender athletes versus non transgenders athletes? For every opportunity offered to a transgender athlete, 300 or more opportunities are closed because schools/coaches/etc.. don't want to deal with the hassles and liabilities of having an openly transgender person on campus.. much less on the team.

I guarantee you.. the non trans athlete that took 20 th place.. has more and better opportunities than a trans athlete that wins the championship.

Its not an easy ride for a transgender person.. they suffer discrimination at school, at work, and yes in athletics, and not only that.. they have to contend with the real possibility of being beat up and assaulted just because someone doesn't like their choice..

Searching for every possible excuse to discriminate against women.

The debate is about transgender women bring real and full women, entitled to all that women are entitled. Equal rights.

The fact is transgender women are born female.

Have a virtual Guinness for that nugget of truth. I'm in a happy mood today.

No. They were born half female at best. Combo people should have their own sport category. That is fair and equal.

What you want is to make female-biological/female-mind female/females second class citizens to male-biological/female-mind combo male/female people..

As I have repeatedly stated... even the girl that sucks at sports and does not make the team because a biological boy beats her for the last spot on the crappiest team in the league is harmed by allowing boys to compete against girls.
 
Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

No transgender person has ever won a sporting event of any significance and one probably never will. Perhaps 1% of people are transgender. Perhaps 1% of transgender people are athletes. Of transgender athletes, perhaps .01% will ever make it to the professional level. Transgender people do not exist in significant enough population to ever affect any sport. If a transgender person ever wins a significant event, it will change nothing and signify only a greater acceptance of transgender people.

The suit is fear-mongering and hate. There's no real issue.

Maybe, no significant event? Says who, you? There shouldn't be a transgender winning any event at any level or even competing because they are not women, not girls. Hell, sew some tree limbs on then and enter then in the garden show. Total BS. Their DNA, their genes say they are men competing against women.

Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

That half is the brain.

Which should be respected and their rights in that regard should be protected. However, in a venue that tests the physical abilities of the participants, their physical half should be taken into account also. Particularly if there has been no alteration to their hormones via injections or the wearing of a patch, etc.

Then they can be a secretary and suck at logic and driving... all good.

Born unable to have multiple orgasms...

You claim they are not born female?
 
Re: Girls sue to block participation of transgender athletes

Does that happen when Trump is intruding into beauty pageant dressing rooms when the young girls are naked or some other time?

It's when hundreds of thousands of them vote for a pedophile in Alabama because well, he still has an R after his name.
 
No it doesn’t.

It’s irrelevant that most transgendered athletes don’t win. No one ever said winning, even for a transgendered athletes, is easy. It still requires lots of hard work. Just like you don’t shoot yourself of full of steroids and get strong just like that. Hard work is still required.

The fact however remains that transgendered athletes have muscloskeletal, hormonal and cardiovascular advantages conferred by birth, that the rest of the field doesn’t and that gives them an unfair competitive advantage.

No its not irrelevant. IF what you contend.. its that it takes "hard work"... well then it IS a level playing field. IF most transgendered athletes don't win.. then it shows that there is not the automatic advantage that you claim. That's statistical fact. And anyway.. these athletes are all putting in hard work anyway...
The fact does NOT remain that transgendered athletes have musculoskeletal, hormonal and cardiovascular advantages conferred by birth. ANY male attributed generally do not begin manifesting themselves until puberty and are not established until after puberty.

and any of those advantages can and are, eliminated by hormonal therapy which is designed to stop the secondary male characteristics of puberty in adolescent transgender folks.
 
That is the pathetic counter argument... "gee! they are not all winning everything" so I like to point out that it affects the girl that sucks at sports but tries and that consequently does not make the team just as much as it affects the girl that comes in second at the Olympics.

No it doesn't.

and you would be wrong.. because the whole dang team also beat her.

Why are you searching for that?
