    Bit disrespectful that they haven't put it ahead of the 'Home' tab in the order, if you ask me.

    I hope they keep it there permanently, just in case any stories relevant to the late Duke pop up, we'll know where to go.

    He seems to be suggesting that you can't bowl around looking like that and also complain that you're stuck in a precarious occupation.

    Aye, it's purely a reaction to the aesthetics. And the name.

    It has made me realise some BBC staffer has had to go through their instagram to find a presentable photo for the front page. They've done the best they can, in this case.

    Fuck man, I'm glad as a teenage weirdo I ended up on this bit of the internet, lurking footy manager forums could only give you old fashioned memorising the train timetable kind of autism rather than scary weaboo version.

    Sounds like he's a virgin eating salmon paste sandwiches every day. Fair play to the bloke but living a medieval existence in this day and age sounds boring. At least get him a pornhub premium account and some prawn toast before he carks it.

    It's the new boogeyman!

    I can only think of 1 case in VFL were a male to female transition after puberty warranted a ban from playing.

    I'm aware that Joe Rogan and his followers are quite obsessed with this happening in woman's MMA.

    School sporting officials in those environments have such an impeccable record on the nonce front I can't think of any way that could go wrong.

    You could time the inspections to coincide with when the zero covid freaks are swabbing their anuses for a more reliable test. Two birds with one stone.

    They can do the boys during their unnecessary circumcisions. Then just tattoo them behind their right ear. Easy.

    Or would those sneaky LGBT's just get blackmarket tattoos? Bastards.

    Obviously that is mental but out of interest is there ever any women transitioning to men and playing men's sports or is it mainly the other way around, where there is a more obvious advantage? Or is it all just fake news amplifying a minor issue?

    Fake news for the most part. Elite Sportsmenpeople make up a tiny percentage of the population, as do Transgender people. The chances of the two overlapping must be vanishingly small.

    Most people seem to think it's as simple as "a man would beat a woman at sport". Mate, grab any Transgender person you want, they're not beating Serena Williams at Tennis and they're not out running Dina Asher-Smith at the Olympics.

    Weightlifting may be the only sport where simply being a man COULD make you competitive with top level female competitors, but the number of Transgender people that wish to both transition to female and become hench must be ridiculously small.

    The concern is mainly in the man-to-woman transition. As far as I know, there has not been a single high profile case. Perhaps the highest profile one was that cyclist who won the Masters Worlds in Track.

    I think that the other WHAT IF is that if biological sex is not considered, what will the Chinas and Russias of the world do in order to win some Olympic medals.

    As for the FL law it is, as most things in the US are, partisan posturing.

    Well, the idea on the left is that gender is all cultural, and people should be able to self-declare themselves into whatever category they want. If you were to apply that to sports, you could get some average male athlete self-declare as a woman and win everything, robbing women of the earnings that they deserved.

    Just bin gendered splits. We've all been secretly wanting Tyson Fury vs Nicola Adams all along anyway.

    Saying that very few trannies actually ruin sport for women is a bit like how I still believe in Lance Armstrong because they were all at it.

    Even if it doesn't happen that often it is still an issue, but I don't think there are any easy solutions. It's incredibly unfair for women to have to compete against trans women, and in the case of combat sports probably borders on outright dangerous.

    I'm not sure the "Can compete against women if testosterone less than..." rules really work either; I'm sure the advantages gained by going through puberty as a biological male don't disappear overnight, but then I'm not an expert.

    As lol as that site Pepe has linked is, it does show the level of advantage that just being biologically male gives across a lot of sports.

    This is how they ended up making a meal of that South African runner. If they are some sort of hermaphrodite then sorry love/mate, you can't compete in either category; but if they are all woman and just happen to produce more testosterone than normal then you would feel sorry for her since it's not really any different from any other physical gift that elite athletes tend to possess.

    Also, no trans athlete is being denied the chance to compete. They just have to compete in whatever category their biol- ummm, "assigned at birth" sex happens to be.

    I genuinely want to see what Caster Sameya can do without the testosterone blockers. It's the hand God gave her. The least she should have is the opportunity to batter the records.
