Should people who were born male be allowed to compete in women's sports if they now identify as female?

[zagor]

Yes, gender identity should be the basis for who can compete as a woman

No, that is not fair to women, who didn't have a testosterone boost in puberty. What they had between their legs at birth should determine.

Yes, but only if they've been, uh, whacked off

[Berethor]

A male can never become a female, and men are stronger and faster than women.

Nope, males should stay in mens sports and females should stay in women's sports. It’s as easy as that. I mean have you seen what happens to women when males enter their sports. Look at Fallon Fox who fractured her opponents skull and Lia Thomas who took away 1st place in the NCAA championship from real women.

[Anonymous]

Yes, absolutely.

[lightbulb27]

that we are even having this conversation is frightening. humans are really special.

no. and they don't go into the women's bathroom either.

I guess there are examples of other animals hanging out with other animals, so maybe the mind can twist things as it wishes... for the view of oneself comes from within.

[Soteris]

I dont see the problem personally, but that is mainly because I am against splitting up men and women in sport to begin with. I find that to be arbitrary and stupid and I say that everyone should fight it out together to earn the right to claim they are the best.

[FunkyMonkee]

NO! IF they've had a sex change and have lived female for a number of years, MAYBE!! Even that's pretty dodgy!!
I don't see how sex can make a difference in skiing or bobsledding.

[boggboss]

No there is a reason we separate male to female sport no a born male shouldn't be allowed to compete

[Anonymous]

I personally think no and I am going to turn the comment section off just in case some people might write insulting answers to me because they found what I wrote offensive

[iheartwomen]

i don’t think gender should determine ur skill, some women are strong and some men are weaker

[Berethor]

In movies? men have greater potential, and male atheists are not untrained men.

[Berethor]

It's funny, I mean athletes are not untrained men, you can read the waif-fu trope.

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor brother i wasn’t talking about skilled guys i’m talking about when you start a sport they should place you by skill

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor male atheist❤️😔

[zagor]

But weak men aren't the ones doing intercollegiate or HS sports. For 10 year olds mixing genders in sports is fine. After puberty there is a definite difference.

I doubt I'd win a single point against Serena Williams, but I'm not sure she'd rank in the top 100 if she played men's tennis.

[Berethor]

@zagor true, it's the gift trope, and men are clearly more gifted than women at sports.

[iheartwomen]

king i love when you bring up pro sports when i was talking about kids running around kicking a ball❤️ plus i bet my 16 year old ass could beat you in tennis❤️ all love no hate 🙏💔💥😔

[Berethor]

Because trans are ruining professional spots, no one care about amateur players. :)

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor do you think you could beat me at basketball?

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen no because I am not playing basketball, I would beat you if I was. :)

[zagor]

Rhonda Roussey may be able to beat up 90% of men in her age range, but the men she would actually be competing against would be in the other 10%.

[iheartwomen]

can u beat me tho

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor king have some confidence ur 35 and i’m 16 (id still when tho😘)

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen yea your young age gives you an edge but I am still a man, you a girl. :)

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor you sure you wanna do this little girl? i can be scary😈

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen how tall are you little girl? basketball players tend to be tall, don't they? :)

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor 5’10 queen📣📣📣

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen WoW, I have only one inch edge on you in height, well I am impressed. :)

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor okay? idc💀

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen I am 5’11, on average men are 5 inches taller than women, so you tall. :)

[iheartwomen]

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen I am King of Manlets, Women's average in United States is 5’4 so yea. :)

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/manlet

[iheartwomen]

@Berethor thanks for the whole manlets explanation

[Berethor]

@iheartwomen glad to help, nice to see that you like it, the manlet meme is funny. :)

[gothbxtch]

do you mean trans WOMEN, who are women? yes, of course.

[najekim]

After all the gender reassignment surgeries are completed and fully healed, then they can compete.

[Snakeyes7]

It completely defeats the purpose of having women's sports

[Anonymous]

Of course not. No sane person thinks they should.

[poppy80]

You are what you are born with.

[Berethor]

That's true, a woman can't become a cat and a man can't become a woman.

[zagor]

@Berethor A few years ago there was a guy who had extensive plastic surgery to look like a cat; apparently there were doctors with more greed than scruples. About a month after the process was complete he commit suicide.

[Berethor]

@zagor the doctors are amoral, well at least the girl in the video is less mentally ill.

[exitseven]

No, they have an unfair advantage in most sports.

[Wise4myage]

No, absolutely not.

[TheUniqueOne96]

Nope.

[gorydetails]

Absolutely not.
