Under the new rules a transgender women can only compete in women's races if they have completed their transition by age 12

Why even make this rule? Kids shouldn't be allowed to transition at all, much less before they even hit puberty. Don't give psychopathic parents and doctors more of an excuse to butcher children.

They are trying to push the lie that only differences at puberty are a problem when two thirds of differences between the sexes are genetic not hormonal.

That too. Men on estrogen and puberty blockers as boys still grow larger than women on average.

Pretty much all the boys who went through the dutch protocol in the Netherlands ended up over 6 foot.

If that were true children wouldn't be so androgynous, and Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome wouldn't exist. The genes trigger certain hormones. The key is timing, as any changes are permanent. Most happen during puberty, but some of them take place prior to birth.

Finally some sanity and guts! Why was that so difficult to achieve.
Hopefully the rest of the sheep will now follow.

Probably not. The sheep will bare their grass mulching molars in protest.

A solo competitor.

Gold, silver, and bronze in every event...

The most decorated and accomplished swimmer in world history.

Lets see how quickly they fold.

Let's see how quickly they start giving estrogen to prepubescent boys.

They already do. It's called soy.

This is going to be hilarious. I don't expect too many women to be flocking to the "open" category to compete against men. Although I do know a few pretty Butch women that would relish the idea of slam dunking a man regardless how he dresses. Good news is... We'll find out which one of the trannies is really an athlete.

I was horrible in all sports as a kid, jogging around the track I was dead last. I would not pretend to be a woman so I could win an event, if your shit at sports just admit it and don't bother like I did.

Open category could be pretty interesting. People could get surgery to web their fingers.

Congrats! You went from Men to Misc & it was all your own doing.

At least they've still got their DNA.

[–]CreditKnifeMan 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

At least they've still got their DNA.

And some mRNA.

[–]jostiniane 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

This is where they belong, a new category of freaks.

Damn, it's funny how the world works isn't it? I have my final appointment tomorrow to get my hot dog folded into a taco so I can dominate women in their own sports because I just can't hang with the men. But now this ruins it, I've canceled my appointment.

Best of nomination.

I bet you all of the sudden he won’t want to play anymore. It’s all about attention.

[–]SMCAB 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Kind of can't wait to see this happen in Golf. It think it's the one sport where the women will still mop the floor with the chick with dick.
