It's nothing like gay marriage where that is absolutely necessary because we all deserve the exact same rights. The thing that rubs some people the wrong way and maybe this is corriks issue, is that what trans people often demand is above what everyone else is entitled to. You made a choice to transition which is absolutely fine, but now you shouldn't be upset if everyone doesnt go above and beyond the way they would treat anyone and everyone - the same.

Sorta. Transgender people should be accommodated as much as possible. Why shouldn't we? But, it cannot be done to the extent that it becomes a detriment to others. That has to be understood.

I like when I respond everyone is up in arms, yet the poll was nearly 78% no. On a forum where I would expect the results to skew closer to yes than actual America would.


Which just shows how far we have to go to keep fighting

Trans people competing in sports is a detriment to no one

Yes, it obviously is.


Explain. They dont dominate the competition. They lose a lot more than they win.

It doesn't matter.

Sports are separated by sex.

You are allowing crossing of separation which the entire distinction is made for.

The average male has more muscle mass and strength than an average female.

Sure you can find some overlap where it isn't always the case, but generally that is just how it is. Body chemistry and structure is inherently different.

So you have the female division. Which is there just because it makes it fairer for them to compete. If a female is trying to transition to a male they obviously have to be banned from female sports. Despite it being their designated division. What is used to transition is banned by sports. Simple as that.

So then it comes about can makes be allowed to compete in female sports if they transition and they keep their levels down to an acceptable female range. The answer is no. The entire reason female sports exists is to give females the opportunity to play sports and compete in sports they would have no chance in against males in average competition and to not make injury as likely.

Males body structure and chemistry is simply different. Not only should males not be allowed to play on a division separated for purely females based on the reason of its existence alone, it also should not be allowed due to a fairness situation.

https://fairplayforwomen.com/biological-sex-differences/

^ Just an idea of the anatomical differences.

Men are on average stronger, faster, have more muscle, stronger ligaments, etc.

Just because you can point out to some examples doesn't change the fact that if you take an above average male and put him in a female division, he will likely dominate the females in most sports.

It is why seeing stuff such as in Connecticut state records for females being broken by transgender athletes and finishing 1-2 in events.

https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2018/06/13/transgender-track-athletes-win-connecticut-state-championship-debate-ensues/

They re-broke the records in 2019.

"One of their competitors, Selina Soule, says the issue is about fairness on the track with wider implications. The Glastonbury High School junior finished eighth in the 55, missing out on qualifying for the New England regionals by two spots.

Soule believes that had Miller and Yearwood not run, she would be on her way to race in Boston in front of more college coaches."

Rachel McKinnon -women's world cyclist winner

Laurel Hubbard breaking all women's records in power lifting and shoo-in for a gold medal until injury.

What people fail to explain in their arguments of NOT ALL TRANS WIN! Is that mediocre and below average athletes in the male division are winning or coming close to winning or doing far better in women's sports and are unfairly pushing out actual women.

It isn't a chasm of gap between male and females.

It is overlapping circles where the top women can outperform the bottom of men to a certain point, but women can never attain the top a man can. This is what let's less than average men compete so high in women's sports.

Good example almost. It would be like allowing Yao Ming into a league that was for dwarves.

It would be like allowing a 15 year old into a 7 year olds division.

They are separated for a reason.

biological females would also be below average in the male division so why is that relevant

are you suggesting that mediocre male athletes are pretending to have gender dismorphia so they win high school track events

also gross phrasing with actual women there

So you are saying below average men should be able to take accolades from women?

A mediocre man should be able to be a Woman's World Champion instead of a woman who worked tirelessly for years and outperformed other women to win?

Nothing gross about it. Your biological sex is your sex.

Naked bigotry about what?

No, transgender people don't actually change their sex by undergoing their sex change. It is common sense. They feel like the opposite sex, they wish to be treated as the opposite sex, and try appear as the opposite sex. A man doesn't become a woman and vice versa because they wish to. You are born the sex that you are. You can still treat that person nicely like you would any other human being. You can respect their wishes of how they wish to be treated. Why wouldn't you? But the end of the day, you are still the sex you were born.

That isn't bigotry. That is actual facts.

They are not actually women. That isn't bigotry. It is fact. You cannot change the sex you were born as.

They wish to be accepted as a woman. Gender is a social construct. They wish to be socially acceptable as women. And, that is fine, and any decent person should have no problem with doing so when it is not a detriment to others.

This is where this topic has always been.

Banananor just stated this with asking you why have a women's division if it isn't just for women. You are saying transgender people can become women making the division still apt.

But, you cannot change your biological sex. You are what you were born as. Just like I cannot become Black if I was born White. Or etc.

You are born what you are born.

You are talking about a social distinction in gender.

For the record, when you call a trans woman a man, or you call a trans man a woman, and you know better, you are being a bigot

Huh? I call a transgender person whatever they wish to be called. And have no problem with transgender people in any shape, way, or form. Do I think if they have to sign a legal form regarding their sex they should be signing it as what they wish to be called and be and not what they were born as? Absolutely not.


Did you completely miss that entire post up there where you implied trans women werent actual women? Thats bigotry

They are not actually women. That isn't bigotry. It is fact. You cannot change the sex you were born as.

They wish to be accepted as a woman. Gender is a social construct. They wish to be socially acceptable as women. And, that is fine, and any decent person should have no problem with doing so when it is not a detriment to others.

This is where this topic has always been.

Banananor just stated this with asking you why have a women's division if it isn't just for women. You are saying transgender people can become women making the division still apt.

But, you cannot change your biological sex. You are what you were born as. Just like I cannot become Black if I was born White. Or etc.

You are born what you are born.

You are talking about a social distinction in gender.


Okay, maybe you really dont understand that man/woman refers to gender and male/female refers to biological sex

This is incorrect.

Gender refers to social identity. Sex refers to actual biological identity.

Sports divisions are separated by sex, not gender. They are just seen as the same thing for pretty much forever. Where the confusion for many even comes from.

99% of people when referring to men or women are referring to their sex. Not their social gender.

Come on, this is the guy that spent how many posts arguing about "what incel actually means" even when it wasn't relevant at all to what anyone else was talking about. At least he'll respect trans people enough to refer to them as their preferred pronouns (or so he says).

I don't know. They literally are jumping through hurdles. They have to know women's sports is intended for "females" and they weren't trying to dictate it was assigned by "gender" and not "sex" with the wording.

If there was a good reason to make them male/female instead of men/women, anti-trans people would have already made that change

P sure Corrik was arguing there is a good reason to make that change before you charged at the red bigotry cape.

Anti-trans people tend to think male/female and men/women mean the exact same thing, so why would they think any change is necessary?

Your own definition of womens sports earlier was basically that it was a pity division for women who cant compete with men right?
