i can't seem to understand why she's a member of a party that is at this very moment working diligently across the country to limit the rights of trans people.
Do you know of any examples of this actually occurring? Are there a ton of examples of trans people dominating and overpowering cis members of any sports?
Is it really though?
We have people in this thread talking about trans women having "male bodies" as if transition did not have a strong physical component - in fact, requirement, by law - that would render this argument flat out absurd, because to these people, apparently being born male conveys some kind of inherent male essence to a body regardless of its shape, size, or hormonal makeup.
No, that these differences were the overt or hidden primary motivation behind the creation of women's divisions in sports. And if female physical inferiority is the reason for women's divisions in sports, then how do we explain women's divisions in chess, motor sports, or other competitions that aren't strictly athletic in nature?
This thread started with high school sport, not elite or professional sport.
Why would that be?
So? One person, who plans to run as a Republican btw, does not a consensus make.
I've read that she favors progressive & fiscal responsibility values.
How do you explain the division, then?
I dare say we can partly explain them by the existence of a tradition of separation of male and female competitions.
Would it be ok for this group to lift in women weight lifting?
I find it odd that she has to walk with a walker but can, without proboem, walk that weight out and squat it.
Seeing how you had to make up fake people to hate and complain about, should we take this as a sign that you don't have any concerns that are rooted in reality?
It's odd that you'd make the conversation about his hating
I didn't make it up. Its on the web.
My mistake: you had to use someone else's made-up people to find someone to hate.
You got better than you deserve already.
It's common for trans people to be insulted and dehumanized in these discussions. We're often discussed in the abstract, as if we're not here on the board, too. Very invasive discussions about our bodies, organs, etc. It's ****ed up but that's how it is. I don't see why cis people are so obsessed over it. It's gross. They wouldn't like it if someone discussed them in the same way, but it's cool to objectify us. I mean, let's hear all about their bits and pieces. Let them whip out what's in their pants, skirt or dress so we can be totally sure. (As if that means anything because genital surgery is a thing.)
Are you trying to say that these people are trans?
Im saying male's shouldn't compete in women's sports period.
