TBH, I am friends with several gay dudes through my wife and none of them really give a frick about trans rights and I've talked to one about dudes playing women's sports and he thinks it is absurd.


A lot of them don't, and try to distance themselves away from the trans community. Not all, but some. Once marriage legalization was a done deal, many had the FYIGM attitude. I had a college friend like this; we aren't in contact anymore {shrug}.

Since you're what you say you are, full stop, then FTMs should have to leave a women's team immediately, right??

Funny how that's different.

Imagine all the records shattered if Bruce would have participated in the ‘69 Olympics as Caitlyn.

That's been my position all along. 100 meters is 100 meters. Everyone starts at the same spot and whoever crosses the finish line first wins, regardless of gender. Can't get much more fair than that, right?




You know that's not how it works.

Well the list is primarily made up of student athletes in what should be “club level” sports from maybe a half a dozen colleges (Cornel, WashU, Ithaca, Bates & UC Whatever etc....).

Transies should be allowed in the WNBA. It could become watchable

Could you imagine? A big 6'6" MFer with hairy armpits dunking in their faces. That would be hilarious. And the same women who got dunked on would be there after the game talking about how brave Juwana is

People that support this garbage are mentally ill.

As well as the genius who downvoted me.

Take their scholarships away and tell them to go pound sand if they don't believe in science.


To be fair, most athletes are in majors that don't require any science classes beyond the bare minimum so they could in fact just be that ignorant.

Why don't they go a step further and demand the NCAA remove gender classifications? Let the best person win and assign scholarships based on that

Those athletes should be asked to quit their sports, and any on scholarship should have it revoked immediately
