Wearing a mask with your nose sticking out is like wearing a condom on your testicles.
When out walking, look out for PROBlems. You know: maskless Plague Rats On Bicycles who blow past you without giving you time to get out of the way.
Ah, CONServatives, the Masters of Projection (MOPs). With CONServatives, every accusation is a confession. Weird, that.
............Oh, what fresh hell is this?

" I'm old-fashioned. I like two sexes! And another thing, all of a sudden I don't like being married to what is known as a 'new woman'. I want a wife, not a competitor. Competitor! Competitor!" - Spencer Tracy in 'Adam's Rib' (1949)
Art thou every retard among us related to thine uncle or mistress by way of moral or illegitimate rendezvous? Thus, we are one side of the other's coin by luck or pluck. - Jimmyz

Why not let all compete for a position on the team of his/her choice ?? Why is there separation male female ??
Why does the NCAA condemn NC-HB2 and the separation of biological sex yet require the separation of biological sex in their member institutions ??
BTW, legal barriers to women as players participating in male-dominated professional sports or NCAA don't exist to my knowledge and yet.
It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

Nor does one in track and field, baseball, basketball, soccer, and a host of other sports. Your point?
A rational handicapping system for any particular sport would, it seems to me, level the playing field. Dismissing the concept out of hand seems rather thoughtless. Like I said: it works for golf.

Uncle Ferd's g/f says...
... if Ferd was inna Sex Olympics...
... he'd win a gold medal.
I have no issues with transgenders competing with men, even though females taking steroids and hormones is technically cheating, they'd still be at a disadvantage vs men, so it's not a big deal. They have too many advantages vs women, man to female transgenders have the benefit of bigger frames, more bone density, etc, and female to male trangenders have the benefits of being on male hormones. They should either compete with men or have their own leagues.
Even when comparing males and females of the same size and weight, elite males will dominate elite females every time. Conor McGregor would knock the holy $#@! out of Ronda Rousey. LeBron James is a better basketball player than Brittany Griner. It is what it is. It's biology.
