Gender issues at the Olympics

[Omegstrat6]

The issue of gender in competitive sports has risen up again with the decision that two "female" boxers who had been previously deemed illegible to compete in last year's World Championship due to not meeting gender tests are being allowed to compete at this year's Olympics.

It is thought that boxers who have gone through puberty as male can have up to 162% punching power of those who went through puberty as females and that later trans-gendering does little to alter this.

Look up photos of Chinese boxer Lin Yu-ting or Algerian Imane Khelif and I'm sure most of us would say they both looked male but the point is that in competitive sport the idea of fairness should surely trump wokeism.

This is not about "equality" as allowing trans sports people to compete in either male or female categories where they have a biologically physical advantage is not "equality". Nothing at all against trans people wanting to compete-but create their own category for them.

I agree with this 100%.

Why can’t transgender have their own category?

I’ll tell you why, it’s because the gender Nazi’s don’t want a separate category, they want to impose their minority agenda onto all of us.

For me, without question, it’s the rise of social media that has fuelled this nonsense, now that the one eyed, one legged lesbian with the cleft lip and ADHD now has a platform it’s brought every nutter to the fore.

It’s like housing plans. You submit your plans for 100 houses in a place no one wants. It gets rejected in the full knowledge that it’s only rejected FOR NOW. Keep applying and you will get it passed.

The IOC are a bunch of woke idiots, a foul organisation. This gender business is all nonsense, trying not to offend the poor, hard done by minorities and in so doing, offend and discriminate against the majority. Add this to the disgusting inclusion of Russians and you get this bunch of morons in control of the World’s biggest sporting event. Nothing will change, though, it is all too political and corrupt.

Totally agree! Why can’t gays have their own television category too? Who really wants to watch programmes like place in the sun to see two chaps walking around holding hands!

It’s a good job you were not posting when our poster Johnny BigBananna was on here! 🤣🤣

He was openly gay and seemed like a good lad.

He had a sense of humour as well, unlike many of today’s minority people.

99 per cent of these so called trans are just men who enjoy dressing up as women. Most of them make no attempt to even look feminine. I've seen them posting on youtube etc with a bit of lippy and a bloody beard. Most of them look deranged and go totally apesh*t when someone calls them sir or he. Delusional mental cases most of them but social media and wokeism have give a platform for all the degenerates to come out of the closet. Marching along the streets, waving their rainbow flags screaming ''we are coming for your kids''. Worlds gone to sh*t. I'm glad I am the age I am but I fear for my great grandkids and the generation after that. Fortunately I won't be around to have to put up with it.
