I always find it amusing how there's always that one guy who breathlessly rushes into every thread about the physical differences between men and women, just to attest to everyone that he would get "totally dominated into utter, and absolute submission" by the scores of female badasses out there...lol...preferably while wearing skin tight leather, of course.
You can almost set your clock by the time it takes for that guy to pop into these kinds of threads each time.

Sanity prevailed back then. There is a long list of physical advantages you gain by being a man that women simply do not have. Many of them are not negated by a sex change. Things like bone structure and bone density and musculature. That is why they didn't allow the sex-changed former men to compete back then. That's also why we have separation between men's and women's events in the first place. Now you can compete with little or no limits? You can have a penis still hanging between your legs and still get to compete against women in all events?

These people are crazy.





Nonsense!


The US Marines have just been ordered to integrate females into frontline combat units.


Would Obama do that if he believed women couldn`t do everything men can do?

Tell me there isn't going to be a sudden "flood" of men with new found transgender feelings (and family being held hostage) under drug treatment to meet the qualifying hurdle and then competing as a "woman".

I'm not talking about the occasional actual transgender case but instead widespread pharmaceutical abuse for "national pride".
Great point, probably being implemented as we speak.

So anyone who disagrees with you is a bigot?

As someone who is generally supportive of the LGBTQ community, even I think this is a bullcrap ruling.


OK, so let`s just see where we are....




Same-sex marriage


Women in combat


Guy with fake **** punching woman

Reason, hate-filled or not, is still reason.


Stupidity, well-meaning or not, is still stupidity.


You will not be competing in the Olympics, so your ability to not get your ass kicked by a girl is irrelevant to this discussion and an example of well-meaning stupidity.

This is great news for guys like Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather. They've been punching the crap out of women for years for free. Now it's actually a sport!

Do you think women in infantry-related positions is a good idea? In all honesty?

I wonder if/how many there will be. It's a shame to think the Olympics might become just another "trans issues" playground. I hope that doesn't happen but what are the odds of that.
