PEZ 6,634 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 This is so f***ed up and sad. "who at a very young age, you know, started proper medical treatment," And of course, many conservatives who have vocally weighed in on this subject want to restrict or delay starting said medical treatment at young ages, so this would effectively prevent any trans girls from entering competition. Unsurprising position from them, just being a bit more subtle about it again. 'Let's only allow trans girls who started treatment young. But let's not allow anyone to start treatment young. Boom, now not any of them can compete' is what this shakes out to. ā”š² Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only area where I can see it being a legitimate issue is when athletes are vying for college scholarships. But we still don't need a committee to assess how valid a trans person's identity is Just make schools give out more scholarships to women, trans and cis, and boom.

Even though she's trans, she lived an incredibly privileged life, never actually experiencing any sense of solidarity with her community. She thinks she's doing something by being an openly trans Republican, meanwhile sabotaging and hurting the transgender people who paved the way for her.Ā I have the feeling that most "Republicans" have never lived "THE REAL LIFE" (that we all have lived, like, real problems, discrimination, segregation, you name it), it's like they are living in a parallel world (I don't want to offend anyone, but that's how I feel about these people).

SchwineLove 1,375 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 eh educate me on why you all so angry, i mean biologically-wise it is logical and makes sense right? biology-wise there's a distinct differences between male or female right. or you guys just think it's better if there's no gender division in sports. i mean let's say in martial arts, i think it will be problematic for a person who just state as trans girl but haven't done a hormone therapy for example, so biologically she's still a male and if she compete in MMA fighting a girl, it's just not fair for the girls and then just grab the female's opportunity in sports competitionĀ . i dunno, educate me please guys i might be stupid, but the OP sounds logical to me, because I ever read a real case of trans girl fighting with a biological girl in MMA or boxing competition, and the girl got bloody and basically being assaulted mercilessly by the trans girl. if i recall correctly, people commenting that it's basically a man assaulting a girl, although i dunno if the trans girl had done any hormone therapy or not.Ā my instinct said that it is such a wrong sight.

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 She is definitely not a word smith but this is better than banning trans girls from women sports.Ā Though I don't think it's a great solution. But honestly I don't know what is the best solution.Ā "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." -Martin Luther King Jr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaxboy 7,072 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I remember when she transitioned one of my managers what I thought about her. I said Iām glad someone in the public spotlight is transitioning as an adult so others who feel the same way feel valid. But that I didnāt care for CaitlynĀ as a person and thought they were awful. I still feel the same way today.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they think kids will truly pretend to be trans to enter girlās sports? I don't think this is about prepubescent boys or girls. This is more about highschool sports where trans-women have a biological advantage over cis-women.Ā This last part is my opinion but they can also maybe take a scholarship away from a cis-woman in sports because colleges routinely scout highschool sports athletes.Ā That said she has a terrible almost uneducated way of expressing herself which makes the message sound transphobic.Ā "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." -Martin Luther King Jr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
