Transgender girl at State Meet

As I said, this is past tense. You can hide under a rock and pretend that it's not accepted and keep discussing it, but you are really wasting your time.

Which school is going to recruit her first?

The one that does will certainly benefit from it in the short and long term.

I don't hide....I post on facebook under my account with my full name attacking this issue. I'm not afraid to speak out on this trans stuff.

You folks are such bigots!

I mean just this last week, an America broke the Female Steeplechase Record! Of course 2 dudes beat her by 70 meters in the same race!

Can you guess who was who?

See how tough that was! Stop being bigots, there is no advantage to being a man an identifying as a woman and participating in women's sports. They are heroes and to be thought of as such!

It does nothing to open the possibility for transgenders to participate in sports. Instead it opens the possibility of transgenders winning sporting events.

Anyway, this is past tense. It is now allowed. She did win the bronze at the State Championship. You can't go back in time.

You can't go back and remove the rights of women to vote

You can't go back and remove the rights for blacks to go to University

You can't go back and remove the rights for blacks to play professional sports...

You need to look forward.

ITS interesting in a sport where iwhere we strip medals yrs after theyre won, that you'd say this. Examine the context you're commenting in. Track and field is notorious for retro grabbing wins, re-writing history.

Lol At EQUATING lgbt with civil rights. I know for a FACT the black community is furious over this.

HAHAHA!

They deserve it so well when they're too scared to protest that dude. Found a photo of him winning $1000

You clearly haven't been paying attention (or, more accurately, have been paying attention and are horrified at what your liberal friends have caused).

This is purely a product of liberal insanity.

Something to ponder. I'm not so sure where this is going. It's possible that trans women are going to be a permanent part in athletic contests for womens. However there is a strain of feminism that opposes this. That pits two major advocacy groups against one another. This isn't like one hate group vs another thats a non hate group. Both the feminists and the lgbt are considered politically correct movements.

So something has to give. I'm not sure which one will win this.

So the questions are:

1. do you recruit these "girls" now to your university to run track, and take advantage of their superior natural strength, risking that one day if the feminists who oppose this win, trans status in womens sports are seen as unfair advantages, you may be seen as exploiting a temporary mess, win at all costs etc??

2. Or do you refuse to recruit them, and if it turns out this is a Jackie Robinson barrier moment, and that you are behind the curve and you look like a monster, Adolph Rupp type, in the eyes of the social justice warriors?

I think this is a tough call.

Two pc advocacy groups pitted against each other - I will sit back and watch. If trans women are allowed to compete in universities as women, and scholarships are handed out, it will be the end of women's sports as we know them. LOL - I love it!

Jarmila Kratochvilova's 800m WR is now in jeopardy of being broken!

The solution will be that scholarships and other resources for men will be cut and the money given to the new bigger combined group of females and transgenders.

The Reason why sexes for athletics were separated long ago was because women would have never been able to have have any recognition or Limelight had all sports had both sexes compete simultaneously in the same category. No woman would have ever won anything. Women wanted a separation so they could have a stage in the world of competition. Yes that's chauvinist. It had to be. For example, Wilma rudolph would have never won a race. She got to be a recognized star because of sexist based segregation in sports. I thought that was good and what women WANTED so as to not be overshadowed.

That's about to be annihilated now.

She takes shots to suppress testosterone and increase estrogen. I don't have a problem with her competing.

That sounds healthy.

Trans women have been allowed to compete in the NCAA since 2011. They are required to have had one year of HRT (testosterone blocker plus estrogen) but surgery is not required.

200,000 women competed in the NCAA sports in the 2015/2016. How many trans women can you name in the NCAA? (I know of two - none in D1).

Hardly the end of women's sport.

no i suspect you were still too slow.

so you're saying in HS I could have just worn women's clothes and make up and said I identified as a woman and won a state cross country title and gotten a full-ride athletic scholarship?

Negative steroids. Now you can get arguments. How much lessening is enough? I've had to listen to the "do it natural' angle on rejecting p.e.d.'s for 25 years, and now this is natural? I thought we in track circles have a cosensus against altering a bidy by artificial substances? Now we are goin to embrace chemical changes to make one suited to race? And for p.c.?

Predicted timeline.

-athlete accused of NOT surprising testosterone

- athlete ordered to take more chemicals

- advocacy group protest chanting slogans about " stay out of my body " " my body my choice" " u camnot be forcing me to take hormones or surpress my testosterone" and other "we are women stay out of our body" war in women theme

- media jumps on board

- ncaa, iaaf etc capitulate

- no more shots, just men in lipstick racing girls
