Funny, the video show bio females getting their clocks cleaned by a bio male. Beyond that, looks like bureaucracy is working for some.
Nahh, it's just an excuse to get you all frothy. Smart people who don't agree know it's a small population and not the end of the world. Doesn't diminish the fact that some people disagree and have the right to disagree. Unlike you, many people don't feel the need to kneel before legislation and have stuff jammed down their throat.
Uh, I do not believe there is a single law requiring transgender athlete participation. There was a law in Idaho banning it, until is got smacked down as unconstitutional. Are you saying you hate the Constitution? Of course you do. You’ve already made it clear how much you hate the 1st Amendment.

Sorry, Ladyboy, but you’re going to have to stop using EOTL and LGBTQXYZ because the city of ‘Frisco has deemed acronyms offensive and racist to non English speaking citizens in the U.S. Uh, my bad Ladyboy, “United States”. No word yet if BLM will change their name since the rules for everyone else never apply to them.
Now, I’m not sure who can’t speak English in the U.S., nor am I sure how non English speakers are offended by acronyms for words they can’t understand to begin with, but it’s clear you professional crybabies are starting to shoot yourselves in the head.
Again, you have it backwards. I am quite happy with how things are going. Did your daughter qualify ninth for an eight person race?
Did we really need a study to know that? Bigger no shit.

Its not my job to hold people accountable. Not really a big believer in that outside of people who work for me and my kids.

Does it matter? Yes.
Tell it to some woman in college losing to a guy. Tell her hey this doesn't happen to often. Suck it up buttercup. Is that the attitude? Take one for the team...pretend you lost to a women and everything was equal.
It is pretty simple. You want to wear a dress, have at it. Do as you will. Guys pretending they are women don't get to play in women's sports however.
People need to stop worrying about being politically correct and say you know what? There is a reason we have women's and men's divisions.
I didn’t say “it doesn’t matter.” I said it’s not a threat to ruin college sports.
I’ve also said the high school rules regarding it need to be examined and ncaa rules need to be reviewed to make sure it’s governed well.
it absolutely matters. I just don’t think it’s frequent enough to be labeled as the downfall of college sports.
and there have been women competing in ncaa sports for years who were born with both parts but their parents selected them to be women. Yet there are clear signs that they retained a lot of male features and attributes. For those cases only the coaching staff and athletic trainers are in the know and there are no hormone or other metrics those women had to meet. Yet they certainly had physical advantages and received scholarships and playing time and opportunities ahead of 100% genetic women. I know of 3 and the coaches and trainers handled it with the utmost sensitivity and care for the young women who obviously had a lot to juggle within themselves. I’m sure there are others.
All this to say this has been going on for years and college sports hasn’t been ruined.

Ok the label the person used to start the thread is off....ie ruin or the downfall of sports. It wont ruin the entire sport. It will however affect those women athletes that lose to men who now compete against them.
So we are stuck with this.
If a guy wants to play on the women's team, the college will say no, this is a women's team. But when that guy says hey I identify as a women...now we are supposed to go...OH OK well why didn't you say that. In that case you are in!
It is ridiculous some people think this is OK.
It is as ridiculous as me (a white guy) suddenly declaring I am black and applying for minority loans, hoping to get grants set aside for minorities, and so on. People would rightly tell me dude go home you are white. But in regards to sex we are supposed to pretend for sports a guy who dresses up as a chick can play women's sports?
Common sense in both of the above scenarios say NO.

That was a funny movieIs your real name Steve Martin?

There have been and will be ZERO INSTANCES where a man realizes that he won’t excel or advance in his chosen sport at his talent/ability level and then decides “I know! I’ll become a woman in order to make the team/get a scholarship/win the title”
That has not nor will ever happen. To reduce these people’s choices down to a sports advantage is so ignorant and asinine.
I don’t even think they should be allowed to compete with women without serious governance and even I can empathize with the difficult lives and inner battles they face. Have some humanity. If it was your kid you’d hope for some empathy and compassion.
Is anyone accusing anyone of faking trans status? I agree it isn’t an issue. Nor is it a question of the end of all women’s sport.
There is an issue, for certain events in certain states, with women being relegated to second tier status in their own sport.
And, so far, no one* here on the left has been willing to talk about the girls who spend 5 years training in a sport, only to find out that the top one or two slots are occupied by boys.
*Except EOTL. He wants to insult any girls in that situation.
