leviathan13 Â Â 348 #1 Posted April 8, 2018 Where do people stand on transgenderism in sport? Seen this today: Â http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/commonwealth-games/43688627 Â 'She' claims that she doesn't have an advantage due to reduced testosterone and the fact she's only won silver previously. In 2014 she competed as a man, so surely that will give some advantage when now competing against women. Â Are hormone levels a good enough excuse to allow something like this, despite what the organisations say? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mickey finn   12 #2 Posted April 8, 2018 I doubt that her hormone treatment will make her bones more feminine or her heart smaller, I think she should not be allowed to compete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You must at least have some opinion, make it better than the one you made on the Winnie Mandella thread, that one obliterated your last shred of credibility.

Halibut   12 #10 Posted April 9, 2018 So politically correct, do those blinkers interfere with your sleep patterns .  Nothing to do with PC. If people are talking about stuff it helps if they've got some useful or expert knowledge. Your comment clearly had neither.

The trouble is some people are so obsessed with being inclusive of all genders they would rather it be that way regardless of the cost to others, if there was definitive proof she would have no advantage then I'm all for it.
