We can either have equal rights for women or equal rights for transgenders, not both. That’s how you know this is all bs. Rights cannot be at anyone else’s expense.

If nothing else, it'll be interesting to see how this impacts the entire question. The Olympics should be fun.

The reason why women are not paid as well as men is because it's men who pay to watch them play. Most guys could care less about watching women play basketball, or hockey, or softball, or flag football. Unless they were naked, of course. Guys want to see men play because they are the far better at sports. It's the income that counts, not the gender.
If they drew the same crowds for the same amount of money, then they should get paid equally. But, that's not the case. So, they're paid accordingly.

This is about men who transition to women and dominate women's sports because they are naturally much stronger and faster. That is just not fair to women. If allowed to continue, women will eventually not be able to compete in any sport. I called this happening as soon as it all started. Instead of calling it mens and womens sports, they should rename it to XX and XY sports. |

You think there are hordes of elite athletes looking to do that? 99.9% of the men in the world couldn’t beat elite women no matter what. I don’t think Serena Williams needs to worry. This is mostly a political scare tactic. |

We live in a time when it's becoming mainstream. Look at Bruce Jenner, if he was born later who says he waits decades? It's going to be a big issue going forward. It only takes one person to change a sport. Take Tennis, a crappy men's player can tear up the women's brackets.

This is mostly a political scare tactic. The worst men's professional tennis player could easily beat the best women. The average serves between men and women differ by about 15 mph. Serena Williams wouldn't be able to return serves 15 mph faster than she has ever seen. |

Honestly, I'm taking a wait and see approach on non-contact sports as I feel like I could persuaded either way. Contact sports shouldn't allow transgender participants, it's downright a safety hazard.

That's why no one watches college football, right? |
