re: Army Chaplain: “transgenderism” is a mental illness.

Too late for that, even if sane homosexuals do exist. They told us the slope was not slippery and all they wanted was marriage - however they allowed this wagon to be hitched to their cause.

I find it increasingly hard to argue against such a premise. But I then think of homosexuals such as Glenn Greenwald and Martina Navratilova who have at least dared ask questions about the full implications of this “trans” agenda. Predictably, they have been ruthlessly and unfairly attacked for holding an opinion that runs counter to prog orthodoxy.

Though Navratilova later apologized for her choice of words after an enormous backlash from the woke mob, Navratilova did not recant her assertion that “transgender” males have an inherent and unfair advantage when competing against biological females.


Martina Navratilova: Transgender Athletes in Women's Sport Is Cheating: Former Wimbledon champion doubles down on her position....

In December, Navratilova tweeted, "You can't just proclaim yourself female and be able to compete against women. There must be some standards, and having a penis and competing as a woman would not fit that standard."




Online outrage ensued.

The nine-time Wimbledon champion — who in 1981 became one of the first prominent worldwide athletes to come out as bisexual (and then subsequently as lesbian), and who has long campaigned for LGBT rights — was labeled "transphobic" in a series of responses by transgender cyclist Rachel McKinnon. McKinnon was born male and won an event at the UCI Masters Track World Championship in the women's division last year.

In response, Navratilova deleted her original message, and promised to educate herself on the matter before writing, "Rachel, you might be an expert on all things trans but you are one nasty human being," adding she wouldn't be "bullied" into silence.

After promising to research the topic further, she penned an op-ed on Sunday reaffirming her views and calling it "insane and cheating" to allow a man to switch genders in order to "win everything in sight."

“Simply reducing hormone levels – the prescription most sports have adopted – does not solve the problem. A man builds up muscle and bone density, as well as a greater number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells, from childhood....’

“....To put the argument at its most basic: a man can decide to be female, take hormones if required by whatever sporting organisation is concerned, win everything in sight and perhaps earn a small fortune, and then reverse his decision and go back to making babies if he so desires. It’s insane and it’s cheating. I am happy to address a transgender woman in whatever form she prefers, but I would not be happy to compete against her. It would not be fair.”
