re: Mentally ill woman makes Olympic history by competing as a woman.

Seems like she’s competing with her biological sex which is what women have asked for.

This is the correct answer.

I don't think anyone on this thread thinks she should be competing with men, although it's an irrelevant point b/c no woman ever would—she'd get her arse kicked.

The point is:

1. It's highly hypocritical that "trans women" want to compete with women, and so do "trans men." I assume I don't have to explain why.

2. It's also ridiculous that this woman has taken no steps toward "transitioning" (because if she had, she wouldn't have been able to compete with women), yet still claims to be a "man." Competing with women, no less.

But yes, this is what should happen because the entire purpose of segregating sports is to categorize by sex (not "gender"). But it should happen with both men and women.

Men should not be allowed to compete in women's sports. This is BS.

She's not and never has been a man.

Nor has she taken any hormones or done anything except call herself a man.

I thought the Olympics required people to compete based on biological sex now?

They might, but I am generalizing beyond the Olympics.

I agree… but I don’t think you read the story

It’s a Female transitioning to male

Obviously she will
Never be a male

Unless you believe that trans people become the gender to which they transition

yeah so she thinks she is a man but wants to compete against women.

trans is really a mental disorder

Sounds like Clown World.
