Yes, and I believe he has a point.

From being a taboo subject, it is now well on the way to becoming a compulsory subject in any arena.
Remember the huge hooha about the South African female runner a few years ago? Semanya-something or other?
Nowadays nobody would notice.

Their solution will be to eliminate outdated gender categorization in sports, and if women think its bad now, just wait until both sexes are competing on the same field. It will be a bloodbath, and women will lose to men in every instance of every event in every sport, and they have asked for it, so, tough shit.
So, you go "trans girl".
This. Exactly this. A time will come when a coach has an "opportunity" to create a team that will be utterly unstoppable. Then the floodgates will open. Title Nine is already under siege and I love it.

Things must get really confusing when deciding on whether to focus on the snatch or the jerk.

This seems appropriate...
The comment at 11:55..."There really is no need to compare men and women." HORSESHIT!!!! This is the ENTIRE mantra of the LIBTARDS!!!

The tennis argument is easy. The current professional format is the men play best of 5-sets, women just play 3-sets.
Until the women's game starts playing best of 5, there's no discussion.

^^^^^ EXACTLY!!! And until the women play best of 5 sets, I don't want to hear one friggin' word about "equal pay". You want equal pay? Then DO EQUAL WORK!!!
The population of women that could keep up with a man in ANY sport, especially CONTACT sports, is microscopic. Case in point...this little girl getting HAMMERED in the football game.

Did she hold on to the ball?
BTW - in the NFL that would be a 15-yard personal foul and potential ejection.

So, what was the point of all the 'drug' testing over the past decades? Were the soviet 'women' discriminated against because they had testosterone?

And it is insulting to all women. It trivializes women's sports and makes them meaningless.
LeBron James may as well just make no other change, call himself a woman and form a one woman WNBA team.
Deontay Wilder should call himself a woman and go through the women's boxing ranks like a hurricane. Chocalatito Gonzales could do it (as Chocalatita), and he weighs 115 pounds and is 34 years old.
It makes as much sense.This message has been edited. Last edited by: jhe888,
