We cannot deny biology. I thought everyone was pro-science? Regardless of gender, there are biological differences that apply to everyone. I dont care if you are transgender, good for you, but biologically you are male, period. Any person may be too short or tall or disabled or have a disease or whatever else that prevents you from playing a sport and as unfortunate as it is, not everyone can do everything and that is the reality of life. I find it interesting that all week people celebrated Harris “breaking the glass ceiling” and saying “women can do anything” and then in the next breath are fine with a biological male inhibiting a biological female’s prospects for sports teams, awards and scholarships.
Science and sports are for more complicated than "if you have a penis and extra testosterone, you are a better athlete."
Respectfully, I do not care about anyone's anecdotes. I could tell you about the female students in my school who could kick anyone's ass. It doesn't matter. I see no evidence that the number of people affected by this is anything but miniscule. I think it's fear mongering.
I'm just wondering, genuinely not being snarky, if you are an athlete that as competed in anything beyond high school level sports? I think that you shouldn't be so dismissive of someone else's genuine concerns. Not too long ago people said things about transgender people being such a small % of the population, did it really matter if they were allowed to use the bathroom they identify with?
Everyone who has a concern has a legitimate right to express that concern without it being considered fear mongering. No one hear is disrespecting transgender people. Howver, as shown in the article above it is already starting to affect high school sports. Now that it is so much more acceptable to be transgender I am sure you will see many more people who, rightfully so, will start publicly showing that they identify with a different gender than they were born. How we address this in the world of athletics, which has traditionally been separated by gender, is an important topic to a lot of people.
Nobody that is dismissing these concerns has ever 1. Been any type of competitive athlete whatsoever (I’m talking about college) or 2. had a child that was fortunate to be in such a position.

Being that VB is gone and this name showed up about a few hours after that, I’m skeptical. Hopefully, I’m wrong.

I'm surprised you can't understand the reason why something like this would need to be addressed then.

But I can say "I'm surprised you can't understand [insert topic]" to quite a few different people on here based on their responses to things. It's not about whether or not I understand. I view it differently. And I did say I do see a gray area. But otherwise we'll have to agree to disagree.

Bumping this because has anyone seen what is going on with the Ivy League swimmers? Guess it was more of a concern than some realized.
Transgender swimmer

Caitlin Jenner even says transgender women shouldn’t compete against biological women. This coming from one of the greatest Olympians of all time.
