So she identifies as a man, except when a shiny trophy is at stake then she's still a female.

I'm guessing you're being facetious and trying to get bites, but it's pretty clear that thing is taking hormones for its transition, giving a clear competitive advantage.

Is she? If so, then I can see the gripe.

Beggs is taking testosterone, and Jim Baudhuin’s lawsuit contends that allowing Beggs to compete while using testosterone exposes other athletes to “imminent threat of bodily harm,” the AP reported.

And the loop hole:

The Texas Education Code and UIL rules prevent steroid use, but the code allows their use if “dispensed, prescribed, delivered and administered by a medical practitioner for a valid medical purpose.”

She's just using this as an excuse to get away with taking steroids.

He-she should have to compete with the boys if he-she identifies as one and is actively medicating herself to be more boylike.


I agree, but the UIL rules don't seem to allow that. Beggs doesn't seem to have much of a choice in who he/she competes with in this case.

The kid said that she would prefer to wrestle in the boy division; it's the stupid rules, and the stupid people enforcing them, that are to blame.

The real question is, what bathroom does Beggs use?

According to the Bathroom Bill: He better be using the Women's bathroom

Because that is the real issue facing Texas right now.

Sure.

His test levels should still be lower than his peers despite therapy.

In all seriousness, I hope he doesn't have any future psychiatric issue.

17 seems really young to make a decision like changing genders.

I can't even begin to wrap my head around how far these fricking freaks have made it with their stupid side-show

People are used to it now, but think about it.. this is a fricking freak show





ETA: I'd completely disown my son if he did this shite.. call me what you want, IDGAF. This is completely asinine.. I can't even put into words how I feel and it has nothing to do with sports, bathrooms, etc

F*** these freaks.. all of them

Yeah, it doesn't matter if it looks like a dude or even if it had its sock flipped out, it's still a female.


I would imagine testosterone and hormone injections give her an unfair advantage

I can't stop laughing.

This is exactly what the hard-rights in Texas politics wanted. If you are a female by birth gender, then by God you are a female!!

When Sen. Bobby Biblethumper's daughter loses to "her" in a match, I wonder if he will change his thinking.
