Re: Transgendered girls in the Olympics
whats the big deal if a newbie pussysexual win against gg ..
which is not the case . if anything girls have a better chance since they do not have to shot hormones while their body is in a natural recurrent homeostasis state meaning is mostly always balance.
As to the point of what one idiot wrote is that mtf woman wheren't taken seriously ,,
As you can see we are taken seriously if not we wouldn't even be allow to compete. That shows equality.
As to the outcry society always cry for something
kinda like your gay tranny chasers ya cry when the dick goes in and cry when they dick is out..

To use an example that has nothing to do with trans issues: if a referee or judge makes a blatantly incorrect ruling that is allowed to stand, the person who is awarded the win won't necessarily be taken seriously for it. Sure they will still have the win on their athletic resume, but in the eyes of the public they won't be seen as having a legitimate win.
And that is the point I was talking about.
True equality isn't just institutional policy, but includes the way people are seen & interacted with in society. A gg who is employed by an "equal opportunity employer" may not have their sex impact their job, hiring, firing or pay raises... but it's not true equality if the coworkers go out to drink outside of work and start spreading rumors about "the dumb bitch that management shouldn't have hired for a job that's only guys should do." Even if these coworkers are entirely civil and appropriate at work, and the girl is oblivious to what they're saying at the bar friday night, it isn't true equality... although it is, most obviously, better than blatant discrimination practices.
And maybe its easier to withdraw from life
With all of its misery and wretched lies
If we're dead when tomorrow's gone
The Big Machine will just move on
Still we cling afraid we'll fall
Clinging like the memory which haunts us all

What happened was is that there was mandatory testing done for ALL female athletes until 1999. They abolished the mandatory testing and now it is done for select cases. It seems that AIS cases are allowed, but are done on a case-by-case basis.
