A simple question

@wildgrass said
Who's dodging that question? You are talking about a random day at the pool with some kids racing each other? Of course, we have women's sports to address issues of fairness.

What exactly are you asking for as a solution?

To stop The foolishness, the silliness. Surely you know it will not end there. Surely you will get rid of the discriminating divisions of certain sports. A heavyweight will be able to fight a welterweight.
Please let me keep it simple…. do you think a heavy weight should be allowed to fight in a welterweight division? Of course this goes straight to the issue of the trans swimming situation

What? Why are you pretending sports no longer have divisions and rules? They do. You're pretending.

They do, but this progressive movement could be just the first step in doing away with divisions. No restrictions on age, sex, religion, weight, genetalia,hairdo, age, sex, (oh I said that) social status, color, everything. All requirements or qualifications are rescinded, it will be rules like Lord of the Flies!!!!!
Am I being funny? No, I am quite serious. Throw America to the wind. Sonhouse, with his democracy rants, is really going to be pisssed.
As to your comment, about sports no longer having divisions, that has nothing to do with this question. Should a guy race agains t a girl in a girls event ? Why being a pansy, a group mob guy, Wildgrass? Think for yourself. Got a daughter ? how bout it?

But... You're just making things up. I'm fine with real critiques of progressive govt like spending gone wild but you're just reciting movie plots or something. Back to reality please. All this guffawing over less than one athlete per state? States are passing laws that literally don't apply to a single person in their state and we're supposed to pretend it's not about politics?

See what you refer to.....

all of what you say has nothing to do with my asking you fellers if YOU think it is Ok for males to swim in female competition. The myriad of your responses goes further to prove what ninnies you all are. No guffawing on my part. Just a question.

And it is quite telling how you mention govt, NCAA, politics, authority etc. You guys love big brother. brrrrrrr

But all of you are disingenuous in your posts, leaving nothing sensical for conservatives to respond to. A lib will say how the border is Trump's fault or some such. So, I will google and find that he was wildly successful in reducing LEGAL immigration . But he failed to eliminate ILLEGAL immigration .
But you libs will just say 'immigration', and not differentiate the two.

I could just scream.

Then there are the Shavs of the world and others who say ':Let them all in, "Av Joe.....What are you scared of ?" But what does that mean when they say that? And, are they serious? Are you serious? Geez.

No, I would not date a trans woman.

What you're not getting is that trans acceptance is about gender, not biological sex. Gender is society's interpretation of the sexes. You can't change your biology but changing your gender and which societal role you want to adhere is anyone's decision.

Trans rights are about accepting that person's view of themselves, not about pretending they weren't born how they were.

Sorry for the slow response, it did require some pondering. So just to be clear going forward, If a tranny can "not" change their Biology, does that mean they are a female male? I mean they are, as you state, male, right. Or is it the other way around, don't think so, but who knows these days.
And to be clear I cried watching Kinky boots, the movie, one of the best. I guess that they are simply human, just as we all are, with all our faults.
