Sounds like you could use a drink... @strider - you owe hindy a gin. Get on it!!

Shhhhhh ... dont tell him

 

[Twizzle]

Well you implied it’s only causing me an uproar. Implying like it’s only me.

I didn't imply anything of the sort,

So please tell me, what’s your take on a biological man competing against women in sports?

As stated previously the person in question is a biological woman, so you're getting outraged over a theory. FTR I don't agree with biological men competing against biological women in sports where strength is an issue

or the man that was facing lengthy jail time, and before his sentencing, he transgendered to be jailed with women?

he transgendered ? lol

the person in question still went to jail so what good did it do them ?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Depends which jail they went to. I reckon a sex offender with an appetite for women would love to be sent to a women's prison.

but he was transgendered

 

[Poupou Escobar]

How convenient

 

[Suitman]

No it's not convenient. It's actually a thing when going through hormone replacement.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Whether or not someone is going through HRT is a personal question and absolutely not a requirement for anyone to decide they are transgendered ffs

(No, not Holden Racing Team)

So why should gender even be a factor in sporting eligibility? Surely sex is the only thing that matters, as it is with science.

That was my point... educating merkins who asked that the eligibility of Quinn for Womens World Cup is based on their sex.

Congrats on catching up!

The easy solution is to stop segregating sports into the men/women binary. If there's more than two genders why have only two gendered competitions? Why have gender at all? Scrap the NRLW and let them play with the men.

No, that's the opposite of an easy solution (as you already know). Hence my comment that it will continue to be logistically problematic for some time stands.

Easiest solution is to base it on sex. Gender is irrelevant when it comes to sport.

It is based on sex and is segregated, as was being explained around people's questions about Quinn.

See replies above .

Thats all well and good, but lets just base it on sex.

Congrats on thinking sex only matters for Quinn's eligibility and not for any of these biological male ladies.

Congrats for not realising that posts and replies are made in the context of the conversation being had at the time - though admittedly that has never been one of your strong points in these forums!
