Biological males in women's sport

You are right, but I think women should be leading the way on this. An internal battle needs to take place where ordinary women take on the crazy leftists among them. Those leftists can too easily dismiss men's opinions as patriarchal oppression. But they will have to face women head on.
Have you seen those biatches!? No way I am taking crazy on.
I would rather fight an ideologically possessed man than an ideologically possessed woman, to be honest.
Look at the way Martina Navratilova has dealt with this. She was hotly abused, but she was so graceful. How she did not lash back I don't know, as she has been called terrible things. But she withdrew, did her research and came out with a moderate piece. She has the credentials, the history, the visible support of trans people in Renee. She has continued to have backlash and insult in spite of everything. But she also has boosted the conversation. Really, she is great.0 -

Saw this. It is an extract from 2018 guidelines issued to various schools in the UK re trans children and the second extract is about sports. The schools create and publish their own guidelines but draw on central advisory bodies - so I have seen the same scenario guidelines included in different publications.

Basically the solution to girls having a problem with boys who identify as girls competing with them in school sports is that the girls do something else and be quiet.
I cannot see how this will be easily worked out, without tears and trouble all round.0 -

You couldn't make this shiote up. What's gone wrong with society. It's a girls changing room, but if your not happy with a person with a penis getting changed beside you, get out. WTF.0 -

Haha
Just goes to show how much I know about weightlifting, I saw that deadlift tweet before, and I thought your man had failed because he didn't get it over his head and I was, ''Yeah?'', but watching it again, it must be that you just have to get it up to your knees. 0 -
that is deeply messed up. I hope someone is leaving a trail of breadcrumbs behind so we can find our way out of this forest.Saw this.

I can't understand where is the glory for transwomen winning these races etc when everyone else then goes - sure they're biologically men, why wouldn't they win ? I mean I think the vast majority of people have no problem with trans adults but when they put themselves in races with women, are they not proving the point that they are not the same at all which is the very point they should want to avoid proving ?
The point is very much the battle between what activists such as Rachel McKinnon claims - ''I am a biological woman'' - and what the majority believe to be true. The utter elimination of any perceived differences between transwomen and biological women (also men etc) is very important to the ideology. Thus a transwoman should be allowed compete with birth women, full stop, no questions asked.
This arena of sports is really just the public face of a very fierce ideological battle. It is good in a way, as it is bringing the contradictions to a head in a very public way.
The battle exists because (I feel) people are terrified to be politcially incorrect - this is the present times bleeding edge of the Culture Wars that have been going on since the 1960s, and before probably. The war is over who gets the power to say what is morally right. Those who dare to question what the ''good'' progressives say is morally correct to think on the matter of transgenderism are demonised, regardless of science and fact.
It's a big area. Huge really. Sports is one of the flash points.
Maybe it is a way to weed out who will swallow 2+2=5, and who will not. They will have to pull off my finger nails, maybe then I will cave. 0 -

I would tend to agree with the first item but disagree with the second.
The changing room is divided by gender, the teams are divided by sex, so different answers for two different situations.0 -

Exactly. In a way, let them at it. They're proving the opposite of their case.0 -

girls robbed of first and second in a state championship final
A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer
