Transgender Swimmer Booed After Win

[rjs330]

Controversy continues around the Thomas, the transgender that is a male, but identifies as a female when she won the 500 meter at a NCAA meet. She got some boos. She also got called a cheater.

I feel bad for the females who have to compete with a male. The transgender couldn't compete with the men, but as female continues to win. It's unfair to women who have been left behind in this debate. What women fought so hard for is being pushed aside for the transgender agenda.

It makes me sick. How people cannot see that this is an outright attack on women is beyond me.

This is what happens when you aren't allowed to discuss issues without being accused of malice. It shuts down the conversation - which they are to cowardly on a real level to have - and instead believe some lie about how you have to HATE trangendered people otherwise you would agree. Its very manipulative and condescending approach to things, but it seems to work otherwise people wouldn't continue to act like this.

Hopefully, one of these days people will realize its a lie that just because you disagree with their viewpoint - or even parts of it - that you must hate...and they don't have to debate it like adults should.

I mean to me? All they are doing is ginning up hatred for everyone - sadly the transgendered community is included in that. You have to wonder if there is some motive that way of thinking. Division seems to help those that encourage that type of debate, and you have to wonder what motive really is. It certainly isn't a win for any community IMO.

Humans could come up with a solution for this. Instead they are choosing to eliminate a true women's sports league. Women - and Thomas I'm afraid - will all be victims of this way of thinking. Many will never accept Thomas as the winner which will do her more harm than good, and people's vicious talking points going ever which way direction doesn't help things. Yet, it seems that's the acceptable way of doing things today for to many.

It's sad all the way around.

Obviously men are just better at being women than women are. Caitlyn Jenner was woman of the year after only being a woman for 1 year. Other women took decades to win that title.

If every last female swimmer boycotted or simply refused to swim and stayed on their blocks this would be over, but the issue is it would take everyone. They are scared of losing scholarships so most only complain anonymously.

From what I have heard the college has an invested interest in him winning and that this is mostly about money as to why they continue to support this person.
I am sure he feels just great with his 6 foot 3 frame, bigger lungs, stronger muscles beating biological women. What an achievement! Maybe next we can see a race between 15 and 5 year olds?

It's the ultimate form of misogyny.

This is disgusting and shouldn't be allowed it is creating a precedence.

Men are born men and women are born women you can't decide what God made you.

That was my first reaction too! It doesn't make sense to me. Like how can he be happy because he won against women ... That's not an achievement.

They buy into this concept that transwomen are women. Some say it to just say it - and others believe it to their core.

The truth is they are transwomen, and should be encouraged to own that. When you own that you should be able to deal with the differences, and be okay with that.

I'm a woman and I accept my physical differences between myself and a man. My bones aren't as big, heart and lung capacity are smaller - the list goes on. I acknowledge I can't compete against football players for example. You have no choice but to acknowledge that fact when you are a woman. No Testosterone level will change that. It just is. Nothing I can do or achieve will change that.

Its the same here in this circumstance, but acknowledging different realities of the circumstance in life. It just is. Nothing they can do or achieve will change that. Just like a man can never have a baby no matter how hard they try. It just is.

Pretending - or just encouraging this group to lie to themselves? It's not healthy. It doesn't help the emotional/mental part either. Some accept the differences while others are encouraged not too. I feel the ones that are encouraged NOT TO are the ones that will be harmed the most in the end. The ones doing the encouraging will be the responsible ones for the harm as well.

This really does show the stark differences in the biology between men and women and why we've always separated the sexes in sports. I remember asking myself as a dumb teenager why women and men couldn't compete against each other in sports and I wonder if those who support the trans ideology do it out of the same mindset.

It should make the women who support this think twice about what it means to say a biological man is a woman because it will be them in the current environment that have to challenge it. Ideally they shouldn't compete at all until biological men are banned outright from competing against women, you only give legitimacy to an institution when you participate despite knowing the rigged outcome.

 

[Red Gold]

This "Thomas" is a cheater and should be ashamed of himself - yes - of himself.

 

[Red Gold]

Good point!

 

[Red Gold]

A man who is so unfair as to compete with women in the same sports group is a disgrace.

He should be thoroughly ashamed of himself, as I have said.

It's shameful what passes for acceptable behavior at sporting events. High school Black and Latino soccer players were booed, jeered and heckled with monkey noises and barking during a championship game

So the actions of the spectators at the swim meet in the OP were loving???

But isn't that a completely different topic?

 

[Red Gold]

It seems "normal" now that a man who thinks in his head that he is a woman is allowed to compete in sports with other woman - so that he can win sky high .....

What about women who think in their heads that they are men - do they then compete with men in sports - so they will lose "sky-deep" - if one can say so?

 

[Red Gold]

And what about those non-binary people - can they choose with whom they would wish to compete?
Or is there a special non-binary league in football etc?

Yes terribly shameful. It was a racist act and the school officials should have put a stop to it.
