Ideally there would be a separate section for transgender sportspeople, similar to the Paralympics but perhaps incorporated into the main events. This is only ideal for the whiny TERFs. Trans people certainly don't want that Maybe, but that's the only way I can see there being a fair way to compete in sports for the trans population, although I'm not overly educated on the matter. If its so unfair, why dont trans athletes dominate? Because there's a relatively low number of trans people, who would have to be interested in sports in the first place (they aren't going to go into sports just because they're trans), and they have trouble getting into competitions in the first place. DeepsPraw posted... The most "fair" way is to just do away with women's sport altogether and make everything unisex Not much fun for women if only the exceptional ones even have a chance to compete (like Serena Williams). If discrimination in sports is bad now, women wouldn't even get a look in if that happened, except in things where they have an advantage, like some gymnastics. --- Perhaps the golden rock was inside us all along. <cite>Sheep007 posted [p:923591932] in POLL: Shou...
