Nikki Hiltz lights up boston marathon participant over opinion on trans women racing

By no skin in the game I mean she has only ever competed in the female category. She has never competed in a nonbinary or male category, while advocating that others should. She hasn't had any "gender affirming" surgeries or treatments, even while she advocates them for others. Her set of rules for herself is different from what she advocates for others.

Yes, I do. She's a narcissist who loves reading anything about herself.

Its wild how people cant understand athletics is different then their made up social construct. Like no one cares if you wanna go home and pretend to be whatever you wanna be ( you need help, but no one is allowed to say that out loud). But sports is different. You dont get to make the rest of the world play your game of pretend either and take advantage of your genetic makeup compared to others.

Theres a reason NO ONE complains about trans men in sports, because there is zero impact on the competition itself.

Tell us how WNBA is keeping men out of their league.

Equating the exclusion of biological males from the women’s category to historical bans on women in marathons is a false comparison that ignores the core issue: fairness, not access. When women were excluded from marathons, it was based on the incorrect belief that they were physically incapable. Today, we have a women’s category precisely because women are physically different, and excluding biological males—who retain performance advantages even after transition—is about protecting a level playing field, not denying anyone the chance to compete. Telling female runners to “just focus on themselves” dismisses the reality that every spot in a race matters—especially to girls and women who train just as hard but cannot overcome innate biological differences. This isn’t about attacking trans individuals; it’s about preserving the integrity of women’s sports and ensuring the opportunities that generations of female athletes have fought for remain meaningful.

It's ironic that you talk about "objectively true statements" while making absurd comments about "nearing 0 IQ" (do you even know what that means?), and the absurd idea that the Boston marathon will become all men and nonbinary runners with no women.

You are a clown.

I don't need any help, nor does my child.

You are the one being triggered about other people's lives. Perhaps work on your own.

I would bet money that I, my child, and our family have a better quality of life that you in every measurable way. Based on your posts I am sure they will be happier and more accomplished as well.

You seem sad, miserable, angry, and obsessed with the lives of others. You need serious help.

If the short Steph Curry declared he was a woman, he’d score 100 points per game in the wnba. And he’d dunk as much as possible

What a dumb post.

All sports are full of invented categories -- weight classes, gender, etc. We don't need to add more rules just because the people you want to win get beaten.

Michael Phelps certainly took advantage of his genetic makeup. Wahhhh he's just built better for the sport than my favorite athlete, same as that mean old Semenya. Wahhhh. Should we have a rule against swimmers with very long arms?

I have no problem with a woman like Semenya taking advantage of their superior strength.

What's next for you snowflakes? Rules to keep out very tall basketball players?

The pay is crap in the WNBA and would be less than minimum wage if guys were allowed in. Absolutely no one would watch a league comprised of C level men. In other words, the league would collapse within a week or two of allowing men to play.

Fails to answer the question.^

Transphobes really do struggle with logic. And reading.

Based on this rational, would you be ok with only a few dopers entering the race? What would your view be if the 'only a few' were winning races? This is the concern when saying 'it's only a few', where do you draw the line?

Why would he want to do that? He does pretty well in the NBA.

Biologically speaking, Semenya is male. Which is why Semenya may no longer compete in the female category. Semenya has testes which produce testosterone, which Semenya benefits from in a way that makes it unfair for Semenya to compete against biological women. This is also why trans women should be excluded from the female category.

To reference your weight class category, you wouldn't have a heavy weight boxer compete against a middle weight. It wouldn't be a fair fight.

Not knowing you, but seeing your user name as 'trans parent' I feel that you won't be prepared to follow any of science, biology or physiology.

She’s about 25 seconds too slow to compete in the men’s division and would not be allowed to run. Do you expect her to go find an all-comers meet on the days she feels like a guy? She’s too far too competitive in the women’s division to run in the non-binary one. Why would a non-binary person want surgeries or medical treatments? Isn’t that the exact opposite of what they consider themselves to be? Medical treatments would also make her ineligible to compete in the women’s division.

USATF, WA and the IOC make the rules and not Nikki or anyone else.

0 IQ is an intelligence nearing "braindead", which you people clearly are.

Again, if you let enough men qualify for and enter women's races, zero women will be able to qualify and beat those times. Just because it "isn't happening" doesn't mean it's not the end conclusion.

These are factual and undeniable statements. Cope harder moran.

They don't let men in their league. What is there to tell? How dumb have people become? I feel like I'm in some sort of simulation.

WNBA players make about $100k. If you think a bunch of washed up male ballers wouldn't take that opportunity you're also a moran. Or men out of college. Or men in their 50s. There are millions of men who could displace the entire WNBA roster and make more money than their current job.

Really? Can you post the link to the league policy on this issue?
