• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Perhaps you should try reading the OP. That is usually a good start when contributing to a thread.
I did. The OP speaks also of biological men and women. Alas, it doesn't clarify what the word biological does there. I am still wondering whether there are non-biological men and/or women.
The closest to no-biological I found is this:
Sadly enough, I don't know whether the label man or woman applies. But it's the closest I came to non-biological athletes.
So again, what is the burning issue you want to discuss?

Better yet, who determined these women felt humiliated?
Indeed. From the original link:

'It was all smiles after the full-time whistle for both sides as group photos were taken and Say Word showed their respect and appreciation for the U.S. Women.'

Who said that people should be humiliated in sport?
Everyone who has disagreed with me on this forum when I said, "It is morally wrong to humiliate women for entertainment." Apparently women should be publicly humiliated for the entertainment of others if those women are humiliated as a result of their own decisions.

The question has already been answered. So I am asking you politely to stop harassing me with off topic trolling.

And what about men? Should men be humiliated for entertainment?

I just learned about a sport called slap fighting in FFebruary. Pure MAGA vibes.

They are disagreeing with what you posted. Which didn't reflect reality. They are disagreeing with the link. Which didn't show what you promoted. They are disagreeing with your premise. Which was risible.

Want to see women exploited for entertainment? Just check out Lingerie Football. Not a harmless multi age, multi gender, pro/semi pro/amateur competition.

They also get to decide for themselves whether they have been humiliated or not. Your opinion in the matter is not particularly important or well-informed.

I have never in my life heard the opposite. Are there people advocating for the opposite?

No.

I thought it was about transgendered people playing in sports that don't match their biologically presumed birth sex.


As a side bar, what about this question:
Who would win:
a Biological male untrained in the sport OR A biological female trained in the sport.
Depends. I was on cross country, the majority of girls could out run me.

The women themselves, and no one else, me thinks.
