Baht Simpson Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I must admit I'm a bit behind the curve and I haven't been following the trans debate in any great detail, so I can't really comment. I have however looked up Scott Newgent and it's not pretty. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PC crew, the liberals in the US, the universities, and many others are so anxious to hop on the support bandwagon, for anyone who wants to be different, regardless of the complexity of the circumstances. When it goes so far that the governing body of competitive swimming in the US is supporting "trans women", who are biological MEN, and enabling them to compete with "real women", who have little chance of winning against a 6'4" man who has transitioned, with shoulders the size of a quarterback, it is beyond ridiculous. I am an open minded guy. I have had a number of gay and lesbian friends for a long time, and am generally supportive of alternative lifestyles. But, there has to be a limit. Somewhere, somehow. HE was a competitive swimmer as a man. So, how is it fair that he competes as a woman? Thomas began swimming on the men's team at the University of Pennsylvania in 2017, and during her freshman year, recorded a time of 8 minutes and 57.55 seconds in the 1,000-yard freestyle that ranked as the sixth-fastest national men's time, as well as 500-yard freestyle and 1,650-yard freestyle times ranked within the national top 100. On the men's swim team in 2018–2019, Thomas finished second in the men’s 500, 1,000, and 1,650-yard freestyle at the Ivy League championships as a sophomore in 2019. During the 2018–2019 season, Thomas recorded the top university men's team times in the 500 free, 1000 free, and 1650 free. I think he/she/whatever should continue in the men's competition. If sport is so important in his life then let him enjoy it - under fair conditions. If he would compete with the boys everybody could be happy and we wouldn't have this discussion. Women's sport exist because women are in general not as strong as men. Within their own groups they can compete and win. Wonderful. Just keep it like that. It's fair. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DSM-5 is the authoritative guide for diagnosing mental health disorders in the U.S. It’s also used internationally as a research standard. This text describes and lists the symptoms of hundreds of mental health diagnoses, conditions, and social problems. It promotes consistency and a common language among healthcare professionals and researchers. Each mental health diagnosis has a corresponding International Classification of Diseases (ICD) code developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) You are calling it BS??

What these people feel or desire is not a choice; it is driven by their particular biology. In this day and age, we should count infinitely more on science, particularly biology, than the tenets of any and all Bronze Age belief systems, which collectively had zero clue about anything, but were damn sure they had the one and only truth and remain hellbent on imposing their superstitions on everyone else. To those who think any LGBT etc. is a mental illness, because their Bronze Age superstition says so, I am of the belief that religious belief is a personality weakness at best and more likely a mental illness.

Jingthing Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) I favor treating people with these issues with love and compassion rather than bigotry and ignorance. Those seeking procedures need to be thoroughly screened physically and psychologically. I also favor much more exposure to risks including later regretting it. Professionals should be supportive of patient's needs but never in the role of pushing procedures. Edited June 24, 2022 by Jingthing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
