But as it it not possible to completely change gender, in my opinion, they remain a man or a woman - according to birth. They can 'identify' as whatever they want but that should not mean that the rest of us have to accept that identity. I refuse to call a Transgender person who was born a man, she or one that was born a woman, he. As for them competing in a sport as a gender other than they were born as, no way. Whilst the outcome of this case is 100% correct, the matter of Transgender people competing in sport is far from settled as this case was actually settled on a technicality. 'her case was thrown out on a technicality because Thomas was "simply not entitled to engage with eligibility to compete in WA competitions such as the Olympics or world championships" as she was no longer a member of US swimming.' https://news.sky.com/story/transgender-swimmer-lia-thomas-cant-compete-in-olympics-after-losing-legal-fight-against-sports-governing-body-13152276 Clearly in a great many cases, a Transgender person can have a physical advantage over other athletes/sportsmen/sportswomen. They are currently allowed to compete in some sports depending on their testoterone level. I believe that is unfair as all transgenders should be treated equally. It also opens up a 'can of worms', and it quite often creates legal challenges. In my opinion they should just accept that they cannot compete in any sport as a gender other than that which corresponds to their birth - just as they should accept that they can never fully change gender. They don't need to be banned from sport, they could be allowed to compete according to their actual gender. I agree they should be able to live their life as they want but dont try and force the rest of us to go along with their delusion 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many bits and pieces does one have to change out to finally, legally and scientifically, change sex. Obviously, the situation in the article has not reached this point. Incorrect pronouns and frilly panties do not make Lia a wamyn. Nothing ever will, no matter how many bits you chop off and add on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuaHinNew Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 You see, give them an inch (or in his case 6 inches) and they take a mile. This has always been the tactics of the left. They get you to support a small radical change and then redefine it as the norm. Then they further push the boundaries of it, and if you reject or don't support it...they call you a racist or homo...... something. You see it in every aspect of loony leftist liberal's tactics to change the norms of society and politics. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 I don't know if it's still that way, but when I was a kid, I was barred from competing in cross country because of the asthma medicine I took. The (quite reasonable) premise was that it gave me an unfair advantage in terms of lung capacity and oxygen uptake. Where was the compassion for my plight? That I wasn't allowed to live my best, healthiest life, and still compete? Strangely, I never thought it was unfair. Things made a lot more sense back then. Thank goodness the pendulum is swinging back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by your posts which all have swear words and slang ....I would hazard a guess your from the "lower" class of Australian society or brought up in those areas ? Would I be correct ?
