Lots of sports are mixed.

 

When was the last time you were involved in any competitive sports other than as a spectator?

which are that?

 

Tennis is the only one i can think of and 'mixed doubles' is specific section of the game. there are still mens & womnes, never men vs women

That men are undergoing gender transition to win trophies.

Depends on the person, if I were a bloke that wanted to be a bird, I would be so EMBARRASSED to even enter a birds physical sport to win a gong........ 😂

A lady can race a car, fire a gun/rifle, play darts, ride a horse etc, where their birth physical stuff doesn't necessarily come into the equation, but as we know, male/female physical build stuff in sports are very different........

Tough, but "bikepacking" is hardly a serious competition. They probably don't even check up on the competitors. Could have been using a car/van like this woman.

Besides, if we have a category for trans people then soon enough we'd have to have trans commentators, trans referees, trans pundits even. Ain't nobody wanna hear dat. It's bad enough having women commentating on football without having trans women.

You can always switch channels, nobody is forcing you to watch sport.

not sure that's a good very example, have you got others or just that?

 

 

 

It's one level above a charity fun run. In elite, monitored, regulated cycling men are around 12% faster then women cyclists. Yet miraculously in this unregulated event a woman won by a huge margin. 😄

 

I'm surprised she didn't quote the local egg and spoon race on the village green.

Yes, competing against people the same sex as them as to be fair and competitive. 

Which is why I argue the resolution is for sports organizations to keep up with society and add categories.

 

Jobs a good ‘un.

It's not as easy as that. Can you imagine if the Olympics had 3 categories instead of 2 for every event? It would drag on for an extra 8 days. If they wanted separate categories for trans men as well as trans women that's an extra 16 days.

 

For what? To appease a tiny minority who are already able to compete against people the same sex as them.
