Is reality and science finally taking hold in the sports world when it comes to men that think they are women participating in sports meant for women only? Some additional thoughts buried in here as well:
FINA just eliminated all transgender women who have undergone male puberty from swimming competition. Thus, unless parents commit child abuse before that growth stage hits, there will be no more men (e.g., William “Lia” Thomas) taking team spots and championships away from biological women. This is also starting to happen in other sports as well – rugby, bicycling, weightlifting with more to follow as they are evaluating solid evidence instead bowing to the yelling and yammering of a tiny number of militant sexual identity bullies.
FIFA, on the other hand, just eliminated ALL testosterone standards in soccer. Let the Law of Unintended Consequences run amok. Don’t worry, when the Division 1 men who didn’t get onto professional teams and invade the female teams, there will be a reckoning and things will be put correct.
And hopefully we can put this madness behind us. Not just the idea that women should have a “sports space” (versus a “safe space”) of their own. It should be that Gender Identity should no longer trump Biological Identity. No more of political pressure and “me, Me, ME!!!” in allowing the Tryanny of the Minority sowing chaos for the rest of us.
