Bigot also means that someone is close-minded or intolerant to people of other groups differing from their own group. So next time, make sure you look further than the definition that google provides, which I know you used that one since you copied it word for word. With the definition I provided above, bigot was used appropriately in every instance provided in this thread: yours and doot doot's.
Use whatever definition you want. I haven't been closed-minded (fyi there's a "d" in it) or intolerant. I have stated an opinion - that it is unfair to all the other women that Semenya (for example) is allowed to compete in women's events. I have not belittled anyone else for expressing a different opinion.
I have expressed no opinion on Semenya, what she wears, what she says or how she identifies. They are matters entirely for Caster Semenya and it is not for me to comment. However, I think I am entitled to say that it is unfair for all the other women without a Y chromosome to compete against her.
Again - you're using the wrong word.
Here's another definition of bigot "a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion". Again - it's not the right word. I have no issue with black people, women, black women, transgender women or androgenous women. There's been no intolerance in my posts, let alone utter intolerance.
I only have an issue with people competing with an unfair advantage.
It's as simple as that, and you're being disingenuous trying to make it anything more than that.
