I think we should punish sexual predators the same whether they are men or women. I also don’t think we should ban people from competing in a running race on the basis that a person you have invented in your mind has the same gender identity that they do.
I guess my ideology does make it slightly more likely that your false scenario happens. You can’t produce any evidence of it happening, but I can tell how scary it is for you.
your ideology leads to many young people taking their own lives because they are told that their minds and souls are incorrect. That’s a true thing that actually happens. I make decisions off of facts, so I am inclined to continue thinking that we should treat transgender people with compassion.
"they are told that their minds and their souls are incorrect" my dude this is a weirdo religious ideology. We are not all required to believe in 'gender souls'! And as for their minds, yes they are objectively incorrect. No one is 'born in the wrong body' nor can anyone ever become the opposite sex, ever in their life no matter what they do.
Btw studies have shown suicide INCREASES after so called 'transitioning'. And btw btw, we don't just give in to delusions just because someone says they'll kill themselves if we don't. If we did, the world would be run according to the wants of suicide bombers.

Why don't you cite a peer reviewed study to back this up?

Fascinating. How exactly did Sadie change gender, and what does that have to do with sports, where the relevant factor is biological sex?
You really struggle with basic ideas if you need to ask this question.
She was born a man and became a woman. That's what "change" means. The relevant factor is not biological sex. It's gender. She's a girl. She runs with girls.
Let's say a "biological girl" changed gender to a male and grew a beard. You would want that runner competing against girls? No. It would be ridiculous.
It is an ascribed status, it can NOT be changed, All this nonsense has gotten out of control, Personally I would send all these people to Saudi Arabia or Iran, Those Countries know how to deal with them, unlike our leaders who have either lost their minds and/or gotten so weak they cower to all these weird people and yjeir wacky ideas, until very recently A Man wanting to compete for a Women's team was too much of an absurdity to even discus, and Coaches of Women's Teams would not even consider some wacky Man who wanted to join their team, but now Like The University of Pennsylvania Women's Swimming Coach let them join and I am sure they are Proud they can say I coached An Athlete to an NCAA title, that is NOT something to be proud of, And I doubt this is what Vince Lombardi meant when he said Winning isn't everything,it is the only thing, At one time Coaches also had decency and a sense of fair play and competition.

They downvote you because you speak the truth. This happens all the time here. They will downvote me also.
Just because someone thinks or says they're a woman doesn't LITERALLY mean they're a woman. To what degree am I compelled to play along with a delusion?
A line I draw is when someone with a blatantly unfair advantage given to them due to their biological sex allows them to dominate natal women who fought for generations to be treated fairly only to have that taken away by those who have an athletic advantage not available to women.

Pretty hilarious honestly. What a boss. Maybe he can win D3 Nats!
Can LRC have this discussion without intentional misuse of pronouns? Have an opinion on if they should be allowed to run but do it without the hate. This person is following the current rules & the current rules are set to change next year. We're again talking about a successful transgender runner, when there aren't a ton of transgender athletes competing at a high level, or competing at all. Governing bodies will figure it out. Generally, the kids seem pretty supportive towards one another & don't engage in the rhetoric being thrown around on here

A trans woman doing poorly in a women's sporting event does not validate that they belonged there or that it did not matter that they were there.
Any suggestion that doing poorly means it doesn't matter is an admission that when they do well it does matter.
Is that the road you want to go down?

Eh, your mileage may vary on this point. Depends on where you go and how the person is or isn’t impacted by the trans runner’s participation. And whether you’re sticking a camera in the person’s face or if they feel they can say what they really think.

So the vast majority of trans people do not agree with the radical activists?
Then why does she present those activists views as representative of trans people?
Do you agree with her that only a small minority of trans people agree with those activists?
You misunderstand. JKR is saying that virtually everyone on planet earth knows that the claims, assertions and demands being made in the name of so-called "trans rights" today are nonsense - including the most extreme trans activists and their allies.
With the rare exceptions of the true believers - who are are largely young, naive kids and adults with mental health problems so severe that they have a poor grasp on reality - virtually everyone pushing gender identity ideology nowadays is well aware that the claims, assertions and demands they are making are total bollox.
Many would argue that a woman in her (likely) 60s whose life is consumed with obsessing about trans women, who scours the internet on a daily basis in search of stories over trans girls competing in girls sports, who insists that she knows the "true" sexual desires of every trans person by insisting that every trans woman either has a kink called "autogynophelia" or that they are gay men who are attracted to straight men and only transition for that reason, and who openly discusses and mocks the genitals of teenagers, has some serious mental health issues . . .

Sexual reassignment surgery is not only legal in Iran, but the government even helps pay for SRS. This has been the case since the 1980s31
