    It's just science. It's nothing political for me. You won't get a rise out of me.
    I know it’s science, that’s what I’m referring to with intersexed people and how that dismantles a rigid, binary definition of a man or woman. 
    Not in contact sport it doesn't. Sure in life have as many definitions as you like. I'm all for people being free and happy. But in sport and even more so striking sports it's binary. If you test high in testosterone for  any reason you cannot punch someone of a regular level for your sport. It really is that simple

    Funny how it never seems to go ther other way, woman wanting to play mens sports. Gee, I wonder why lol.  Whole topic is a joke. 
    They exist, but you don’t hear about it because it doesn’t make good clickbait for twitter. 
    No. You don’t hear about it because it’s not controversial. It doesn’t give them an unfair advantage to play up. It’s not putting others at greater risk of injury. So nothing to talk about.

    The Olympics do not see it as an unfair advantage? Anything that is deemed to be, is forbidden.

    No one is forced to apply to and compete in the Olympics if they do not find their rules fitting. They can e.g. go compete with organizations that are both funded by and let Russians compete under their own flag. And who wing decisions after Russian athletes loose. 

    It's obviously not an clear cut thing and something to discuss (within the sport world), but abusing and misgendering a person in here and on SoMe in general is icky behaviour. Like that piece of shit hungarian opponent she is to fight next.

    ^ SC, So my daughter shouldn't play BC soccer if she doesn't want to play against a U14 XY chromosomal female identifying child that injured her.

    That's what you're saying, that's what the coach said, and that's what BC soccer says. And it sounds like the Olympics are okay with it, too?

    I'm not saying she doesn't want to play. Being injured by them/they doesn't bother her (except for the vision loss, pain, headaches, and inability to enjoy regular summer activities like jumping on a wibit, playing soccer, running, or tubing). She doesn't know the ramifications of concussions, however.

    Are we talking about rules for sports exclusively? And I don’t think there’s any info out there on the boxer’s testosterone level.

    True but it's not everyday a genetic boy hurts a girl at a provincial level of play.

    I think the point was made earlier in the discussion that perhaps the force on ball hit by that person would be greater than a genetic female.

    Or even the height difference: that person might have not stuck the ball back that smoked Pip squeak.

    All in on the conspiracy. Of course you are. You're probably also on of those people who like Trump because  no one's "tougher" on Russia, but you also actually are a Russian lapdog. Good luck in your alternate reality.

    Some of the sports accept gendered transitioned people if they transition before puberty. I didn't even know children were allowed to transition that early except maybe intersex?

    Maybe that's  Euro stuff?

    Here is that persons instagram posts before the match regarding the ”controversy”. I take a guess you already knew this while typing your BS.
     








    So once again you were knowingly posting ignorant and hateful shit. 

    You should also be banned for infering she is not a woman and knowingly misgendering her, joining the online mob abusing her. I don’t think the Pearl Jam community should in any way allow or help foster that type of hate. My opinion but hopefully Kat can take a look through the guidelines and see if that is really allowed. It’s a really, really vile thing to do. Not surprised in this case. But abhorrant shitty stuff.

    When it is convenient.   Don't forget that part.  Follow the science, when it fits your viewpoint.

    How can the Trumpers claim to follow the science and then follow the religious right and beliefs based on a work of fiction?

    Thanks. I'll order it from the library.

    I appreciate you advocating for the preferred gendered terms and pronouns for everyone.

    There's a book mad honey by an author living in Kamloops, BC, on the traditional, unceded territory of the Secwepemc people about forgotten memories and keeping family together. And another one by Jody picoult??
