You going to stop all your bigotry now you disgusting right side of steem? Nah of course not, who cares about facts when you have hate am I right? The literal basis of sports is unfair biological advantage, and yet one that happens to be one of the most attacked socially is "too much", even when you have zero evidence to support your claims?

When you think of people who are trans as "men in dresses" you are just being delusional.

Sort:  

I would make posts calling you out but that would just bring you more attention. Bigots will be bigots, the only solution is to smash them.

what?

Why even bother? If you tried to abolish all human ignorance you would go insane.

you are going to have one boring life

Hi hi hi, it will be easy to win for trans if they make it look that their real gender don't make a difference

I can't tell if you are being bigoted or supportive lmao, based on your usage of trans as a noun I would say it's most likely bigoted

Have you seen Futurama? There is an episode how a robot changed his gender and won olimpic games. I know that athleat women are stronger than average man, BUT athlete women have worse results than men athletes. Even in school girls have smaller sport test level.

Sorry but The current men's world record is 9.58 seconds, set by Jamaica's Usain Bolt in 2009, while the women's world record of 10.49, ALMOST 1 second best man athlete better than best woman.

oh I see, you see trans women as men. That is incorrect, you seem to have no idea what you are talking about.

I don't unserstand)) Transwoman is from man to woman?

it is a term for a women who was assigned male at birth...

Using hormones we can easily fix that problem, and the (sadly limited) research shows that being trans has no impact on sports abilities. The point of the post was posting a link to that information, which you completely ignored.

true, sorry

This article (linked) sucks!

It lists all of these reasons... that have no effect, are pointless, and merely cosmetic. And then do not even talk about the real reasons.

It is all about emotions and nothing about facts.

Testosterone is king when it comes to muscles.
Just the dose that you get as the fetus definitely decides its male will change the person's strength over their life.

Men are 150% stronger per muscle weight. And usually heavier, making them even stronger.

It has been shown again and again in labs.
It has been shown again and again in sports.

The reason that sports are separated into mens and womens is that the top women's teams in all sports play highschool men's teams for an almost equal training match.

So, we either suck up our emotions and call a spade a spade, or we say goodbye to women's sports.

women athletes that win must have higher natural levels of testosterone, that is the only explanation. The solution is to make sure from birth everyone gets the exact same amount. Either do that or get rid of women's sports entirely

the reason men are much stronger per muscle weight is that women tend to have more fat in the muscle, and it turns out that is dictated by hormones. HRT changes that, so that's not an argument.

Transwomen nearly always have less testosterone than cis women, so trans people should be at a disadvantage according to your reasoning

"It is all about emotions and nothing about facts."

ah yes, that's the irony I was looking for

even if you were right, which you aren't, it's besides the point. What exactly is the argument here? That men naturally have more muscle? This is an absurd generalization that is divorced from material examples.

Moreover, it's got nothing to do with the argument regarding trans people. Mainly that gender and sex are separate phenomenon.

This was about an article that talked about trans-women (used to be man) competing in women's sports.

So, this is all about men having more muscle.
And has nothing to do with the gender/sex issue.

In order to even try out for the olympics, a man has to run faster than all the women in the world.

Don't argue with the mentally ill...
