I actually really like Aba&Preach take on this problem. "If there is no advantages in sex, then why do we hear so much about trans women breaking records in female sport, but nothing about trans man breaking records in male sport?"
Better question: if there's no advantage to sex in sports, why have separate leagues AT ALL?
@@LostinArtKit Ew, gross! Seriously??
@@LostinArtKit but have you really heard what they were saying?) They had a position, why it actually wasn't as bad as everyone is thinking. And they also had a discussion with D'Angelo about it, where both sides of view were heard and explained.
@StraightWhiteMale you did not build the world you dominated it there's a damn difference
@@celestialmajesty2053 don't feed the troll
“We just want to be accepted for who we are.” They said. “Women have nothing to worry about”. They said. “Women won’t miss out or be affected”. They said. “Don’t be silly, we’re not going to compete in sports.” They said.
It's called "gaslighting".
Don't worry well never ask for abortions after 23 weeks. Don't worry well never remove men from their children's lives.
@@ds29912 Well...Some men should be removed from their child's lives. So not sure what you're getting at there
I feel nothing for them. They wanted to be at the top but now they're having loopholes thrown at them and seeing what men tried to warn them about for years. Let them learn the hard way.
@@SandraNLN lol enjoy trans men in sports 😂✌️👌
It was all over when they started giving the ,"woman of the year award" to biological men. Identifying as who you want to be... doesnt make you that. Wierd thing about reality...it's not subjective !
I remember when that was a gag from "parks and recreation"
When your enemy makes a mistake don’t help them. Why should I white knight for the same people who say all men are toxic and try to tear men down with affirmative action quotes. I fully support what trans community are doing because those man hating feminist deserve what they are getting.

The saddest part is, Kids in High school are being taught this is all 100% OK....
Yep
Tragic
Yeau this generation is getting screwed
I feel for the younger generation. I went back to school recently, and the stuff that is being taught in the universities is scary. They are totally pro-LGBT, so much that they silence and cancel anyone who questions what causes sexuality and gender dysphoria. They say gender is on a spectrum. Abortion is just a choice. Evangelical Christians are the enemy of a tolerant society...One of my professors went on NPR to praise Critical Race Theory and said that Evangelicals are against CRT and they are the enemy.
I’m lucky my pe teachers old as so me and my mates can talk to him about how backwards this is
I love how feminism has gone full circle to having men dominate everything again. Good Job!
But they had to get rid of their nuts first.
@@XmassWraith zuby didn’t lol
He’s the exception, not the rule. The rule is... we all gotta cut our nuts off and those who don’t must date those who did. That’s gonna be the revised first and second amendment.

@live fornight wtf is terf
The fact no trans man wants to play in mens sports says everything I need to know on the subject.....they should have their own competitions
Its about that they are technicaly allowed to if they do wish so
@@skknireeker9073 well why would they when they have a clear edge on the biological females why would they go against other men when they can play in womans sports and dominate.
They dont, but its about that they are technically alowed to if they wish so.
I think there are some. But unlike the other side, they are not breaking records. From what i've seen at least
what? you mean Mulan wasn't a documentary? im stunned.
I remember a few years ago reading comments saying that eventually the increasing acceptance of anyone who just calls themselves trans would result in men eventually identifying as women and taking over female spaces. At the time I thought it was a bit silly, why would a man change his entire life just to win medals or something like that. Now I've seen that happen multiple times. I really feel awful for female athletes who have worked their asses off for years to be the best of the best, only to get beaten by a trans woman.
It’s not just sports anymore.
*man
there's no such thing as a "trans" woman.
@@poisenbery literally
the reason shouldve been obvious. there are men who are sacks of trash and cannot stand the fact they arent the best. so if they are given a chance to completely dominate and NOT be vilified for it? those trash bags would totally do it. just look at the Seinfeld episode where Kramer joins a martial arts class and just beats the crap out of a bunch of 10-13 year old children because he has like 30 or 40 years on all those kids.
I never thought it a silly concept. I knew years ago this would be an avenue exploited by subpar male “competitors”
Skeletal size, bone density, heart size, lung size, the list goes on. I wonder how they can claim "there is no scientific case" that trans women have an advantage....
In biology we have this term "sexual dimorphism", i.e. the difference in appearance of males and females of the same species. It's beyond my comprehension how some folks can say that there's no difference between the sexes when we clearly see the EXACT thing with pretty much every other species!
@@FerrowTheFox Exactly! If there were no such thing then why are there separate categories for men and women in sports to begin with!?
@@FerrowTheFox I had to do Bio for my forensic science and antrhopology and arch degree. I really am starting to think its either deliberate or these people are really this fucking stupid. have we really advanced so much that THIS is the main problem of our society? Gods are laughing at us and noming their divine popcorn leemiie tell ya
First they said that race is made up and it has no biological importance. Everyone in the west bought it. Now they’re telling you the same about sex. And you’re buying that too.
@@FerrowTheFox
That's biological sex, not gender identity, which is a social construct.
My solution for this issue: The simple thing, I, as an autistic person, am being told quite often.
" *You can't expect society to accommodate ALL your "special needs".* "
See, it's that simple.
There's no need for them to compete in professional sports.
Facts
Yes, or if they want to, they can compete in men sports.

Now this is podracing!
The whole point of separating male and female sports in the first place is exactly because of biological differences! I mean what other acceptable reason could there be now in 2021? It's for the same reason they separate by weight class in fighting. Imagine them claiming that separating by bodyweight in fighting is somehow 'body/fat shaming' and should therfore be abolished... 🙄
I suggest they create their own sports league where 'gender identity' is the basis for division and see how that plays out
just like the Paralympics has different divisions for blind people and amputees. They could have trans athletes who still have their junk and 'amputees'.
Don’t give them any fucking ideas m8
What is a "Laurel Hubbard"? It's what you get when you're not man enough to play in the real world.
@Dan Theman I've watched an animation on how they perform surgery to their penises. Apparently they sorta like, cut a hole at the area a little bit above it(?) and like, tuck the penis inside and sew it in

Oh you know they owe you mad interest.
And I identify as a firefighter, I get all the social points without having to actually fight any fires. My friend with no music experience identifies as a successful DJ, he too gets a lot of the benefits of being a successful DJ but without doing any work or having any talent, its okay he simply identifies as hard working and talented, but unfortunately being a Trans-DJ is incredibly difficult, you see not only is has he not landed any gigs despite clearly identifying as successful but now his land lord discriminating against him asking for money!
So I was curious how did identifying as rich work? I think it will be hard to prove he is a rich man yet also a victim when in reality he is definitely neither
This is pretty transphobic ngl
Put that on your tax return and see how that does not help you.
Every time I hear this subject, I find myself wondering why the ladies turn up. Don't compete. Just say no. Make a stand. Because a trans athlete winning a gold medal against no competition has no victory to celebrate. I appreciate that this is difficult for women but we men cannot do this for you.
Hubbard is a case in point. Let him compete alone. Let him pretend he's won. Eventually he will tire of the pretence.
If women stood together and refused to compete, they would have a chance to turn this around.
But dude gotta compete too kinda cunty to remove him from male and female sport, should just have her compete against dudes
@@markgreenway7651 yes, but then he - sorry, she - says that its not fair as she's a girl ! He used to be a male weightlifter. He still is.
@Steve Price they can't just refuse to compete. They were threatened to lose their job. This issue was exist in indie wrestling. So apparently, intergender wrestling was trending in indie wrestling world few years ago (and probably still). A lot of female wrestler who disagree with intergender wrestling will be kicked out of the show. And since indie wrestling is a complete scripted, they usually let the women win as their payment for contributing the trend. while they have equal payment, many women wrestler still feels discouraged because they know they've been played, they can't win out of pure strength, only can win if the script let them. but threatened to lose their job if they refuse to participate. Someone on twitter calling this issue, but people start cherrypicking women like chyna, etc. As few example of women can compete against men in wrestling, while in fact, women who can do that probably just 1 : 20 in general. And people bullying this guy too, saying he was misogynist because limiting women opportunity against men, while it's kinda ironic since many women wrestler don't want to participate in intergender wrestling but they can't and obviously, their choice were limited and their voice ignored
@@chakravartin3356 you're talking about professional and clearly scripted public entertainment.
Athletes have much more to lose by inaction.
If testosterone isnt an unfair advantage why is it considered "doping" and "cheating"?
Hey there! Trans people know that higher levels of testosterone generally correlate to higher levels of performance. That's why even though trans people have technically been allowed to go to the Olympics since 2004, nobody but Laurel Hubbard's ever made it in: she had to undergo strenuous testing in order to make sure that her levels were comparable to women who were assigned so at birth. These rules make it so that some biological women have higher testosterone levels naturally than trans women would be allowed to, and tests/rules like these why trans women don't overwhelm these sports, even though it may feel like they should.
@@are_ya_wynning_son It dosent matter if his testosterone level is zero or minus 10 He still have +40kg of muscelmass and will lift easily close to double the weight of the silvermedalist...
@@Vixxing21 Actually, on the necessary amount of hormone therapy, muscle mass goes down to levels which are attainable by natal women, and sometimes lower. It depends on the individual.

TOTALLY AGREE
All female athletes should boycott any sports where transgenders have been accepted. I’d consider boycotting the entire Olympic event.
Absolutely, it’s disgusting 🤢 🤮 that this is happening
Realistically, all the women are competing for the silver medal. What a letdown for the real women who spend some much time, effort, and energy training to compete in the Olympics
Exactly. Either by sitting out or taking some roids.
The fact a mediocre 40 year old transitioned and became a world championship medal level pretty much shows up the whole thing
Plus did he really transition? His armpits weren't shaven.
@@KM-zn3lx 😂😂
That is the whole point. These are men who couldn't compete with fellow men, so hey, why not bully the women?
"They will have to shut up and bow to us because we are Victims."
Well played, gentlemen, but not admirable... .
Makes a mockery of all the great athletes who achieved the records of the past when they're smashed by some dude who couldn't cut it in his own division
This shows exactly ONE case. That is also a fact!
Normally you (not Sidney, news reporting is important, not Glitterball personally, but you ... the people) don't give a shit about trans people. They are so unimportant and rare.
Now, when it comes to world-class athletes who are many times rarer and extraordinary people, does that suddenly matter? Let people who have a clue decide about it, such as scientists and the athletes themselves. You are just a bigot and we really don't need any more hypocrisy.
Oh wait: pointless debates by amateurs without a clue are also important. These keep you from doing other stupid things with your pitchfork, for example.
All of this is of course meant to be satirical.
P.S.: Oh, and why stop there? Why don't we also ban people who fall out of the norm and thus have an unfair advantage over others?(That is btw. what makes a human being to be world class). How about Usain Bolt or Sally Pearson with their extraordinary cardiovascular system? We really shouldn't put our pitchforks away again anytime soon after the torches are burning ...
Sarcasm aside, there should really be 4 categories in certain sports. Otherwise it's unfair (everyone is talking about male-to-female transsexuals, but according to your logic, female-to-male transsexuals are even worse off). And don't get so artificially excited, medals and titles are usually revoked very quickly. Even in retrospect (Lance Armstrong, Tonya f'ing Harding, all "honorable" athletes).
Oh and please, people, take a breath again. In the end it is not Sydney, you or I who decide, but the Olympic Committee. They don't give a shit about RUclips:)
I am literally skin and bone, especially now that I have trouble eating after Corona. And I can overpower my wife when wrestling for fun, every single time (shorter, probably like 20 kilos heavier). I am almost 40 so probably not really high on testosterone anymore. I don´t do any sports and she does. It´s just an unfair competition.
I used to know a giant in high school she was 6 foot 8 and 400 pounds I am only 180 and just shy of 6 foot one day my friends were on a similar topic about gender and stuff i always hang around a political crowd and they said the winner between us would get 10 dollars now I have never played a sport in my life I'm a couch potato yet I won I don't know how anyone could see this as fare even with hormone therapy.
@@germanshepherddog732 Thanks for sharing that! It's a good example (that should be shared all over the place!) showing that even with that massive difference in height and weight, you still won.
because you have thicker bones and she has more fat
One of the biggest problems with the current transfad movement is that the ideology is completely incoherent.
They say that they need to "transition" for the mental well being of those in that situation and then say that no one should have a problem with it because there is no difference between men and women... It's all a social construct... Really? Then what are you "transitioning" to if there is no difference and why? Transition into the same thing? That's not actually a transition.
They also try to say that men can have periods. If you believe that you need a biology lesson or two because you clearly don't understand why that happens and why it only happens to those called female.
Interesting to note that a lot of the people who have lived the trans lifestyle for decades say that the current transfad movement doesn't speak for them...
I wouldn't want my lifestyle to be associated with such nonsense either.
They claim men can have periods and get pregnant because they identify as men after the transition, that's literally their only logic.
This. Is. Truth.
i feel like for a portion of then it's mostly that they don't recognise themselves in gender social norm that are created by the system (colour preference, character ...)
and the others it's really that they suffer from gender dysphoria somthing that more and more studies show that it is due to difference in brain developement
the problem is we don't know the causes of these difference and if these causes are valid on all cases(allimentation could be one) because if these cause are avoidable.
and we abolish all gender norm that don't anchor themselves in science(sport separation is not one of them but we could make it not about gender using strict physiological criteria)then maybe there would be less cases and people would feel better in their skin.
there is also the fraud that claim there are that for advantage but we can't do anything about them
I seriously never understood how men can have periods and how people pointing this out are automatically transphobic. Like... did they skip their biology lessons or something? It's ridiculous. 🙄

It’s not “arguably”… Men LITERALLY have physical advantages for sports. We are in absolute 🤡 world. This is heartbreaking for talented, driven and disciplined WOMEN who’ve dedicated their lives to compete at the top levels that their biology will support. Disgusting as well.
When a man up and decides he's transgender, and proceeds to immediately smash records right and left with performance that's mediocre for men's sports, I don't see how you can say otherwise.

And any kind of fighting, not to mention they stay as tall, which helps in 90%+ of sports
And they still have the increased muscle mass and their body still produces testosterone while they're taking hormone therapy which helps make you stronger and grow muscle with less effort.
@@jamesgennaro9679 Oestrogen inhibites testosterone production on its own. Not to mention that medication designed to specifically block test production are usually also taken. Taking oestrogen will also cause your muscle mass to start to atrophy down to a level more common with biological women.

Why even bother with "gendered" sports if you may simply "identify" as a particular gender at will?
yes , open all sports up to any whom wants to compete , no categories , weight limits, anything , but thats not the argument from women "we are equal" they cry "we can do anything men can do " until it hits them that they are losing all the time now and that doesn't feel good , it contradicts the "women empowered , able to "do" anything narrative , then the screaming starts "unfair!!!!" tell you what , here's an idea , any transgender will have to wear a weight belt , perhaps double their weight , just to make it fair, they did this in horse racing , or have a runner start way back from the starting line or run extra laps then the girls(sorry , birth capable persons) , empowerment in action , a weight lifter would have to lift the weight plus the combined weight of all the girls in the competition , we must protect girls feelings at all costs, crazy right , don't be surprised when ideas like this are floated , probably already have been
@@jkbughunt pretty sure the majority of female athletes dont think this way. More likely it's the people that have never tried hard at sports or have only worked in fields where the physical differences between male and female dont matter.

It is totally unfair to have non-biological women who, for starters, don't have periods, competing with biological women who do; and that makes a huge difference in a lot of aspects, among other things mentioned in the video. 100% agree that, if there's not enough research, we shouldn't be doing this in the name of inclusivity.

Yup. Why do the men in pro fighting world are never beat to pulp by transmen in the octagon? Feminists must answer.

many mens sports are technically co-ed sports as they never made a rule against women being a part, just oversight, assumption that no women would try to join and so they didn't make a rule.
@@CarbLoaders There is transmen being forced to compete against women. They would rather compete against men than have the hollow victory of beating women.
Men’s sport is already co-ed but women just can’t reach that level. That’s why women only leagues were created.
i see 2 ways to "fix" this, first, introduce a new bracket "Transgender athletes" to begin with you can have both Male→Female and Female→Male transgender people, 2nd is for EVERY Biological female in Laurel's category to simply refuse to compete, I'm a kiwi myself, and while i'm all for what ever you want to do with your body is your choice, that stops the second what you choose to do effects others in a negative way, and this is a VERY clear example, if your a weight lifter and you have "transitioned" and you are still lifting weights equal to what you did when you were a male, you should compete against males, or be the bigger person, and step away from the sport.

Strongly recommend listening to the Real Science of Sport podcast episode on transgender women in women's sport. One of the hosts is Professor Ross Tucker, who was one of the figures involved in World Rugby's decision to prohibit trans women from competing in international women's rugby, and he goes through explaining the extensive process and large body of evidence they assessed in reaching their conclusion.

Well, soon that won't happen. They will start to hand medals to everyone because "everyone worked hard to get here and everyone deserves an award. Plus ofc no one is better than someone else, we are all equal". All sports will become like comedy shows where they don't even need to show a scoreboard. At least if certain people get to decide that thing also.
There was a fight between a trans and a woman that ended in the lady's skull being cracked. She mentioned that the punch felt like smashing a lorry into her head. It wasn't even a fight, it was brutal. Most of them would never have been heared of in men's sports. But they are not just breaking but smashing record in female sports. "Born in the wrong body" my ass.
I have actually had the case of Laurel Hubbard as my topic in my final presentation exam in high school (12th grade, doing my A-levels, between 17-18 years old). I put out a survey on our school cloud asking (every student (12-18) and every teacher) what everyone personally thinks should be done about this. Most people thankfully choose the options "She should take part in men's sports" or "there should be an extra category for trans people". But the third biggest category (don't remeber the exact percentage, but i should still have the data in detail on my pc, so if anyone is interested... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) choose the option "nothing should be done/she should still take part in women's sports" and most of the reasons (yes, i asked everyone to leave a reason for their decision) were "because she is a women." or "if she wants to be seen as a woman, we should respect that!"
It made me regain and at the same time lose hope for my home country (Germany) since i could thankfully witness that the majority still used their brain, but seeing that a part went after the typical illogical "woke" agenda made me worry that this mindset might grow here in the future and that soon, people will lose more and more of their logical thinking in order to not offend anyone.
Im praying for my country and for the future of humanity 🙏

a transwoman is allowed to have a bigger difference in testosterone to a female, than a male who uses steroids has to a male who doesnt.
let that sink in
So, you're a woman beater? ... No, I'm an Olympic boxer.
Everyone talks about hormones, but men have twice denser bones and with that comes physical strength. If someone doesn't know, our muscles can put much more force, but are limited by our brain in order not to shatter bones. Ergo men having denser bones can use much more force than women even if they have the same muscles mas (which they already have more).
Men don't have denser bones, the only difference is testosterone and collagen, these athletes were on testosterone and used it to build muscle easier and faster than the women can biologically.
Men don't have a physical advantage over women without effort, you still have to work out to get strong it's not from bone density
@@tokofukawap4055 you are so wrong. Men have denser,stronger bones, tendons and ligaments. Get some education!
@@tokofukawap4055 bullshit. Men in almost all cases have an inherent physical advantage over women--there are a few, but very few outliers. You say: "Men don't have denser bones, the only difference is testosterone and collagen..." Yes, actually they do have denser bones and musculature, due to natural, NORMAL levels of testosterone. Those normal levels of testosterone in men do the things you claim 'these athletes' had to take testosterone for.
Men most certainly have a natural physical advantage over women--thousands of years of evolution and biology guarantee it. That's not a matter of opinion. You can look it up. Yes, you have to work out to get strong, but as a man, you start out much stronger than almost all women before you have done a single workout.
Men also have, generally, longer bones giving them advantages in leverage and reach. Not to mention larger lung capacity and hearts giving them endurance advantages which do not diminish with hormone therapy.
If there are no differences we would see trans men dominating in male sport, right?
some references to support the claims would be useful ... Was curious to see some on the matter and found this one that states otherwise: "Thus, throughout prepubertal and pubertal growth, and in the fully grown young adult, males and females have the same trabecular BMD (number and thickness of trabeculae) within the vertebral body; what differs is vertebral body size. Men have a wider and only slightly taller vertebral bodies. Thus, growth does not build a denser skeleton in males than females, it builds a bigger skeleton. If the strength of the vertebral body is greater in young males than females, it is due to gender differences in size, not density, not the amount of bone within the periosteal envelope of that bone."

"Born in the wrong body" we don't really get a choice of what body, country, or family we are born into. It just kinda happens. This whole issue to me is completely a result of what our society has deemed as masculine and feminine making those men or women who feel or think in more modern traditional masculine or feminine think they are born in the wrong body when people shame them for not being more masculine or feminine as men and women. It's ridiculous honestly. You're welcome society. This is what you have created for yourself by holding to these stigmatized ideals.

I hate it when people say that “I was born in the wrong body” BS.
What??. R u sure?. Or wasn't becoz something bad or dark happened on ur childhood made u think ur gender swap?. Usually people be trans becoz the have experience something bad since their young age. Things like the parents who mostly influence their children who desired their children to be a boy but end up they got a girl. N girl but end up they got a boy.. so the parents dressed them up to the gender that they want their son or daughter to be.
Another case is becoz the child already have dark history with pedho people.. maybe family, someone close or they're being bullied in the school.
And another case is becoz pronography.. it maybe influence from friends, family or their serounding..
So watch out ur child and try to know them more.. n bringing up them with the right path... talk with them befriend with them.. accepted what gender they're.. if they're confused about their gender when they hit puberty..help them back to the right path especially teens. They usually confused when the hit certain time.. they got to much ego, too much thinking, too wild, too much things for we parents to look for them. Becoz teens is the messier part of life as a human being.

And to your point if a female is transitioning to male they should not be allowed to compete in the female events period as they are taking medicine that gives them a clear advantage, this is why the progressive left is so dumb they make everything ok but in the process ruin everything as they dont think things through because every choice they make is based on emotion NOT reason.

No.. I dont think how transgender people are treated is even slightly a part of what any of this is about. It's a nice subject matter for the cult of critical theory. And critical theory is fucking batshit crazy. It's an ideology whose dogma sounds like satire. It's like it attempted to one-up all of Marxism, scientology, vegenism, mormanism and fundamental Christians, and then blew right past that goal.
The original posters question is a simple one that the activists will never answer because their dogma considers objective reason meaningless. So who cares if they hold 2 views that are cognitively dissonant. Men and women are identical. So what the fuck is the transition that transgender people make? If it was just about clothes and makeup then what the hell is the steroids for? What is the surgery about? What is the transition?

I don't think this is a "man thing" or whatever, I think the explanation is very simple - Everyone is afraid of standing up to the woke mob for fear of being canceled. These days you can (and probably will) lose your job and your livelihood for voicing the "wrong" opinion.
It's actually quite amazing how quickly the world can change through the efforts of people who are organized.
We get called TERFs by other feminists, men who dont like feminism dont even bother to listen to us, and the LGBTQ hates us. It is pretty great.
They were the ones who demanded this. Feminists created the "gender is a social construct" propaganda specifically to help them push women into direct competition with men in every aspect of life from education to workplaces to politics to sports. The TERFs like "Parker Posie" are a tiny minority of feminists who - as a group - also seem rather confused about what exactly they believe the line is for "equality."
@@kele5181 the original "woke mob" were called the Temperance Movement, and they terrorized men in the US by smashing up or burning down bars, and in the UK they did the same to coffee shops.

They also pushed for the divorce laws that created an increase in divorce & single motherhood. Today, 85% of the inmates in US prisons were raised by single mothers. And every school shooter but 1 was raised by a single mother.
The next "woke mob" were called the Suffragettes, and they terrorized men in the US by smashing up polling places, burning boxes full of ballots, and assaulting voters & poll workers. They managed to get the vote without having to register for the Draft like men are required to do by law. Now that they have voted for the Welfare State party for 100 years, the federal government is $26TRILLION dollars in debt (not counting unfunded liabilities), and the cities/states where the Welfare State party have ruled for decades are falling apart and riddled with violence, needled syringes, & feces.

"Trans women have biological advantages over biological women." Wait a minute, I've been told, over and over again, that sex is just a social construct, so...I'm a little bit confused at this point. o.O
Exactly - it is a social construct which is why women need their own spaces... ... ... ... oh wait...
Sex isn’t a social construct it’s based on biology and facts. Gender on the other hand is a social construct. The stereotypes and assumptions you put on a person because of how they appear is a social construct to make a difference between men and women. I can promise you that if you weren’t told who was trans, you wouldn’t always be able to tell.
@@TheBatCat No, Gender and Sex are one term with different spellings. Redefining the dictionary changes nothing.
@@andyknightwarden9746 Sorry Eric, Genders is not the same thing a Sex, it's the socially constructed roles and expressions of the Sexes in societies. For example "women should be in caring roles, wear pink and cook dinner while mend should fight, build cars and drink beer".
@@grassygnoll3345 Wrong. They are the same thing. And who's Eric?
I made it to the Olympic trials in 2004 the honest answer on why "I" didn't make it is honestly cuz I choked, but with that said if it was cuz somebody had a physiological advantage over me I'd have been pissed I started training for the Olympics when I was 8 I went to the Olympic trials when I was 18 having competed at this level I'm sorry but this is unacceptable
For anyone who needs or wants an analogy:
Artists enrol in a professional competition, using paint and brushes and canvas. These people (the women) have done this for years and it's considered rather fair, with the exception of people who cheat with special canvases or pre-made paintings. One year, someone enrols but has a camera. They (the trans-woman) take a picture, gets it printed on a canvas, calls it a painting, and subsequently wins.
We can all see that this simply isn't fair due to the equipment being used, no matter what they want to call the end result. A photograph cannot identify as a painting. A camera cannot identify as a paintbrush. They need different competitions in order to be fair.
Once I know a dude who considered himself a new Da Vinci. He had his permanent marker always in his pocket and made his tiny graffiti everywhere. That's not really following rules, you know. In the end his poor kindergarten graffiti has been considered art, while an army of people who try their best are put aside, because their art is considered too common, not original, already seen, too normal and so on.
This guy had to write notes under his pictures, as "this is a foot", just because it was not clear to the viewer, but, eh, he was the artist.
I think it's not only a gender thing: I think there are lots of money under this new wave of insanity: making people confused about their identity makes them easier to control and easier to push them tu buy things. Like human beings were some farm animals.
I have dedicated my life to art painting and drawing. photography is it's own category. That's the only solution trans athletes must have their own category.
how is it society has become so ignorant & silent of what is so obvious?
the dude still has a penis for christ sake
@@adamgm130 It infuriates me, particularly as a woman, that he went through male puberty and had natural male hormones, his body grew as a man, and yet because he 'self-identifies' as something else he gets put in women's categories. Either keep them to their biological sex, or give them a new category. If they are kept to their biological sex, they obviously can't take hormones as that could allow them to cheat.
Fun fact; I'll bet if they were given their own category, we would see a massive drop in trans athletes and it'd go back down to what it was 30-odd years ago. They just want the upper hand, and identifying differently is the easiest way to do it rn as it's fucking accepted by society. I do believe if it was as easy for women to do, we would see them doing it too, it's just easier for men as they have the natural biological advantage for this
@@strawberrypencl agree 100%. so true having a category of their own, what's the point in that.
i think it's the only outcome woman athetes should accept
I agree. But not wholeheartedly.
There are two things needed taken into account:
1) Was the transition before, during or after puberty?
2) How long do they take hormones? What are their hormone-levels?
To 1) When they transitioned before puberty, then there is no (real) difference to the gender, they transitioned to, I think. When they transitioned after puberty, there is nearly no difference to the gender, they transitioned from (See 2). When they transitioned during puberty, there is a big grey area, where I can't draw the line.
To 2) When they don't take hormones, they only dress up as the other gender. The other thing is debateable, and I also can't draw a line.
A different competition can work, but with something similar to weight-classes for percentage of transitioning, when you know, what I mean.
What if, if a man participates in women's sports, the real women just publicly refuse to compete?
He would look pretty dorkly 'competing' alone...
I'd actually like to see that happen. All ACTUAL women just take a knee and stop competing until they ban transgender athletes.
Hubbard was mediocre in men's weightlifting. Wasn't even close to being relevant. After Hubbard went thru a transition she became just short of top 5 IN THE WORLD in women's weight lifting. But biology doesn't matter😒
Yup the testosterone flooding their systems for decades didnt have any impact at all because political correctness trump biology :)
As a man, I think we should care less... got banned on r/feminisms because I was asking why aren't they trying to do something about this unfairness towards women athletes.
“Explosion of trans athletes” says it all..
Why doesn’t anyone talk about the fact that these men weren’t top of the line athletes in their sports so they switched to women’s sports and are dominating women because MEN ARE STRONGER!
Lmao because apparently that would be “TrAnSpHoBiC” or some stupid shit like that
Yeah literally they need to either compete with the rest of us or don’t even compete unless it’s against her transgenders. They wanna face women bc they know they’ll get mopped on the same playing field they end up putting real women in which is so bogus. Those women be working hard just to get wiped by a man in booty shorts and a bra😐
Cheryl Sabol SO TRUE!! This is something I've said for quite awhile!
Hi there! There's no data that supports the claim that cis men are changing sports and pretending to be women so that they can do better. The reason that trans athletes are feeling more comfortable about playing sports openly is because there's more representation for them in media and general society, so they can be themselves without having as much fear. (That's the same reason there seem to be more gay people now. Previously in history, it was much less safe to live openly, so there seemed to be fewer of them. However, now that they are able to have rights more similar to the ones heterosexual people have always had, more are feeling more comfortable in being open.)
And how you never see trans men competing in men's sports.
When I transition to becoming a five year old, I'm going to win all the trophies at school sports. I'm gonna feel so proud of myself!!!
You reminded me of that scene in Monty Python's "The Meaning of Life" where the Men's team plows through the Boy's team quite harshly.
Yay!
I was just thinking that. If you can "feel like" and "identify" as a gender, surely you can also do that with age?
@@linusgustafsson2629 Definitely! I'll shave my pubes off too, wear a school uniform and get my larynx surgically adjusted.

"You'll have men's sports and you'll have co-ed sports."
I think that summarizes it perfectly.
They should just allow all Trans athletes to compete in the men's events. Problem solved. Have a women's event, and an open event.

Apologies for the length but I do hope you read this Sydney!
I was born female, and I *am* female, BUT, when I hit puberty I exploded with bulging muscles. I was a gymnast from the age of 5 and I also enjoyed weight training from the age of 10, the facility was next door to where my Mum worked at the local hospital.... And then over about 6mths I gained 20+kgs and started looking like a very short Arnold Schwarzenegger so much so my parents and teachers were convinced I was taking steroids... so off too the specialist and test after test and finally it was discovered I was producing the same levels of testosterone as a approx 15 - 16yr old boy. Not fun, but the bullying at school ended quickly as it was discovered I was as strong (at 13) as the average 16yr old boy.... now this was back in the early 80s... why am I giving you this context?
Because from that point on I was no longer allowed to compete in school sports with the rest of the females in my class. I was no longer able to compete as a gymnast (after 8yrs of hard work and hours of training) and I was certainly not able to compete in weight lifting anymore.... And I *AM A BIOLOGICAL FEMALE!!! *
*BUT* Lucky for me I had a nurse for a Mum and an Ambo for a Dad, so although it hurt like hell, they were able to sit me down and explain that this weird thing going on in my body although not my fault - was also not the other girls in my classes fault either and so although I never gave up my training - I never competed again and the records I held - were taken away.
I am now over 50, retired and as I read and listen to people like Sydney I am disgusted that non-biological females are competing against biological females - take it from an FEMALE whose body still produces more testosterone then a females body should..... It is bloody wrong and it is bloody unfair to see what is happening in female sports! And if this is not stopped soon - it *WILL be the death of female sports!!*
If I was a Female competitor - and I found out I would be competing against a biological male - I would very publicly boycott the event and hope the rest of the competing females stood strong beside me..... after all *NO COMPETITION - NO EVENT - NO WINNER* *Call it the modern day 'burning of bras!!"*
You should make a video about your experience.
@@Kaboomboo Thank you KaBoom. I did actually; a very very very (LOL) long time ago... I love to journal and had been keeping journals (fyi not the 'dear diary' type journal lol), I write in poetry form, especially when I am angry or hurting - and I've been writing for over 40yrs.
So back in 2011 I made a simple little video about the joys of living North Queensland ~ from our amazing beaches; our rivers with photo bombing crocodiles; to the bush with koalas chilling in the trees, kangaroos bouncing, and snakes a-slithering lol.
It was just a bunch of photos with me talking in the background - BUT tree trunk sized legs and arms were in a few of the photos - add to that - my deep man voice and.... the nail in the coffin - my tattoos.
I have *never* been judged and attacked like that. Which turned into vile bullies threatening me (apparently they decided I was either a bloke pretending to be a female OR an ugly butch tattooed dyke), I was even hacked. So I deleted the video, deleted my channel, and even uninstalled You Tube. As for my tattoos - they cover hideous scars - not that anyone cared by that time...
It was near on 5yrs before I rejoined You Tube again.
I've gone back to making videos (although due to surgeries and such I haven't made one for way too long); but now I have fun with the moppets and the trolls etc. I just don't do voice overs and every part of my body stays behind the camera/video. Oh and I have a great VPN and Cyber protection - so no fear of hackers and of course I changed my name.
And most importantly.... when I make videos now... I make them for me and no one else.
OMG *again* damn I babble on, sorry lol.... I have been told I type like I talk. So I truly thank you for taking the time to read my original comment - many people can't be bothered to read anything past the *'Read More'*.
Cheers, Mia!
I feel for you, that is so wrong, to be fair I don't think I have to words to say to do it justice, I can only say that it makes me upset, disappointed and angry they stopped you from competing and then look at the crap spouted today.
@@rianmacdonald9454 Thank you, and you did have the right words - and you are 100% right, I am 51 now and I would be lying if I said what was being allowed today didn't rip open old wounds.
But even now (well before I temporarily ended up in this damn wheelchair anyway), when I was asked to join the "seniors" female football, I declined, because I KNOW I could unintentionally but seriously hurt another "senior".
What I now have to deal with - is people assuming I am transgender (male to female) all of a sudden. And the glares I get, and the security at shops knocking on the bathrooms (females) asking me if I am in the "right" bathroom (I actually now carry a copy of my birth certificate and photo ID everywhere I go).... has once again come to bite me in the butt (so to speak).
There have been many who think I discriminate against transgender people, I don't, I just do not agree with their stance on sports - *AND what they seem to forget* - I am also trapped in a body I never asked for, and have spent my life being punished for it.
THEY have surgical and pharmaceutical options - *I don't* And now because of all this sports rot - I have to deal with strangers who treat me like I kicked their dog....
When I lost all I had worked for as a child - my beautiful Dad said something I will never forget; and became my mantra (and my sanity) for life.....
*"Well Miapiccola, seems there's a road block ahead; best we get out the shovels and dig you a new path to follow"*

@@Aussie1968 It’s sad you weren’t able to compete because of something that was occurring naturally in your body and it must hurt to see someone who, I assume, has far more testosterone than you welcomed into women’s competition. What saddens me about Laurel Hubbard is that she must know she has a huge unfair advantage over her competitors but is still determined to go ahead and beat them. And what does that prove? What does she get out of that? Where is the satisfaction for her? I would hope that, if I was in her position, I would do what I would see to be the decent thing and retire from competition. We all have to accept that the hand life deals us means we won’t be able to all the things we would like to do. I do worry where all this could lead and what it could mean for women’s’ sport.
I think the only way the message might get heard, is if all biological women withdraw from any sport that allows transgender athletes to compete.
But they won't. Some will be scared of being labelled a TERF (as if that's a bad thing), some against their own interests actually support this.
@@katymvt being a TERF is no better than being any other sort of feminist. Feminism is a communist ideal that is meant to destroy men, family structure, and "capitalism." TERFs are just one of the factions of feminism, much like the national socialists & international socialists & fascists were just factions of communists fighting for power.

@@MissUltimaThule Yea, I took anatomy in college and they taught us how to sex categorize an adult skeleton. Once you know what to look for it's pretty easy, especially if you have the whole skeleton.
@@MissUltimaThule Pretty much the same thing a forensic anthropologist can do, but ok.... want to name every discipline that can also sex ID a skeleton for more internet points? I mean, I said what I said as a joke but I could have listed them all and looked like a knob too but that might have ruined the funny.
Maybe Russia, China or some other country that hasn't gone completely insane, start a truly female sports league, leagues so women can compete fairly again . Surely this can happen somewhere again and anyone who loves women's sports will be a huge fan.
Thank you so so much for talking about this. Especially as a female HS runner, I have witnessed firsthand how much of a disadvantage we are at biologically compared to our male counterparts. When looking at progression, HS boys tend to improve in a linear fashion while a lot of girls struggle to run well after freshman/sophomore year because puberty works against us athletically, not in our favor like men. Competition in sports, while important, is not a human right, and to simply ignore biology like this is a slap in the face to female athletes everywhere.
Thats why we have things like Leagues and weight classes. Because we don't ignore biology in literally ANY other part of sports...

Forcing trans people to compete with their
assigned at birth gender means forcing transmen to compete against women, even though they have all the physical advantages of cismen, but that doesn't seem to bother you. It seems that conservatives are fine with a man curbstomping women as long as he was born with a vagina.
