#WHY CAN'T TRANSGENDER MAKES PARTICIPATE IN MALE SPORTS?

[msclaritea]

"Transgender youths should be allowed to compete in women's sports at school and college level to protect their health, physicians say.

Researchers at Vanderbilt University, Tennessee, said participating in sports had many benefits, including boosting mental health, self-esteem and lowering the risk of obesity and chronic diseases.

They advocated for trans people to be allowed to compete in their desired gender category at elementary, middle, high school and college. But they admitted competitive sports were a different matter because participants had invested their whole careers in the game.

They warned that a wave of 22 bans on transgender athletes at schools and colleges was harming the mental and physical health of the group and discouraging them from competing in sports.

In an interview, lead author and sports medicine expert Dr Alexander Sin said: 'Does it matter who gets a medal at a third-grade competition?"

YES! It damn well does matter for little girls and their self-esteem. Vanderbilt University is a prestigious college. As in Affluent, wealthy. So, it's the wealth class pushing for Trans Identified Males to be allowed into women's sports.

THIS HAS NEVER MADE SENSE. If the person is still biologically male, why can't they compete in MALE Sports?

WHY CAN'T THEY COMPETE IN MALE SPORTS!?

I say for now, keep the bans going until we can properly sort this mess at a later time. The wealth class, right now, are acting like a bunch of wannabe mad scientists with too much money and time on their hands.

The article goes on and mentions, casually, that Trans youth are 1% of current high schoolers. Why the hell is society being asked to set aside the mental health of girls and women, as a whole to accommodate a group that keeps making so many demands without allowing people time to learn more about whether these demands are actually necessary or even good for the rest of us?

Too many walls of text with no time so I'll just do simple bullet points in no apparent order ^^

I'm not on the murderer's side, you actual braindead chimp. I am explaining why they retaliate to violence and murder another human being - it's pure homophobic rage because to them, that trans woman is a gay man. It's an explanation, NOT an excuse. The fact that you bent over backwards to act like I thought a homophobic hate crime was a good thing is fucking insane. Genuinely.

Being a feminine trans woman and being a gay man are the same in the eyes of society, especially if said "trans woman" likes men. Sorry 🤷‍♀️ Same goes for those masculine women and "trans men".

They don't have a harder life than me, except for likely the symptoms of the horrific surgeries, excessive testosterone taking and the impact of binders on their ribcages all for the hopes of being seen as anything but a woman in a misogynistic society.

Trans people can only be gay if they're same sex attracted. A "lesbian trans woman" is a straight male, so no I will not be celebrating the fetishistic penis haver larping as a dyke. ;) Now a "straight trans man" would be a different story since she's a homosexual who felt pressured into being viewed as male but ultimately is still a female who is attracted to other females.

You use "violent" too much. There's a difference between a differing opinion and violent opinion. A violent opinion would be wanting transgender people murdered or mass incarcerated. A differing opinion is not believing in gender ideology.

Most of the "anti-trans" legislation being passed is literally correct. Males should not participate in women's sports or have access to their safe spaces such as restrooms. Children should not be convinced to fuck up their bodies forever because they identify as a demigender smol doggo pupper at 15. Of course I feel no desire to defend them - they literally are damaging issues that should be stopped.

Those gay spaces you're talking about with transgender gay people is just larping bisexuals and heterosexuals. I'll pass. There's a massive difference between having a movement for females and then booting out female lesbians versus not wanting to share a space with people who are quite literally physically not what the space is meant for. It's like if I went to a powwow only for it to have some natives but mostly white people dressed up in costumes, and the natives have to dance sacred dances with the pretending white people. Literally no difference to me.

Me not wanting to be with a penis isn't the same as being pro life...wow, I can't even begin on that one. Pro life is an ideology based around the inherent desire to control women's bodies and what they do with them...sounds more familiar to the "lesbians MUST include trans women in their dating/sex lives" crowd 🤔

Corporates make hella cash off the trans movement too. An organization literally remade that new "inclusive" flag with the trans flag on it. Also, those surgeries and medications ain't gonna pay for themselves...wonder why there's actually so much interest in pushing the gender ideology...those medical bills would definitely fill some pockets.

Ironic to criticize my usage of words while saying radfem ideology is *list of buzz words*

K that's it byeeee look at this cat everyone

Man, the closest to a ‘golden age’ of being a homosexual must have been the late 2000′s, early 2010′s…I remember being a young teen going through the realization that I was gay and going online to spaces where it was actually okay in their eyes to be a homosexual.

So many YouTubers who were based around serious and light-hearted discussions about being lesbians really helped me, as well as seeing gay men express themselves since that helped me learn more about the LGB community. I felt like things were looking up for us and that even though being gay was different and could sometimes be scary, there would always be this community to back each other up. It was going to be okay to be a gender non-conforming lesbian, because the older women I saw on my laptop screen were trying to make it so.

And then in about 2015-2016, something shifted right before my eyes. It’s not like the trans community didn’t exist before - I knew them well enough, and was 100% supportive of them, but they had grown much louder. I think the most damning thing for me personally was watching all the lesbian idols I had come to know on places like YouTube started coming out as trans men or nonbinary. I couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed each time, even though I had been taught by now that this feeling of disappointment was “transphobia”. These were my role models, my only connection to gender non-conforming females since I lived in a small conservative town in the armpit of Florida.

I tried to be supportive all the same, even though it seemed like every day those channels I watched or blogs I read started to disappear or change themselves to being about exclusively trans topics. It was like these people thought that the legalization of gay marriage in America was the end-all to oppression or issues for homosexuals, and so they had to move on to the next thing. I felt frustrated, but also pressured to joining the bandwagon, accepting that trans people were the oppressed now, and “cis” gay people had power over them even if it didn’t make much sense to me.

I wish I could go back to those times. Most libfems and tras really think that because gays can marry now and sometimes commercials on TV will show a gay couple, they don’t need to care about us anymore. But I’m still here. There’s plenty of people still here. This is a very America-centered post as well, since I’m sure the experience of anyone outside of it may be different, but my personal experience really opened my eyes to the trans community and their��‘allies’. Greedy consuming erasers.
