Rowling not as bad as Linehan but they way she went after the algerian boxer wasn't good at all.

I get she has her history with domestic violence and is emotive / sees some red flags but that for me was way out of order.

A minefield of a topic tbh where the very strong arguers on either side would put you off their cause.

Quote from: AustinPowers on April 30, 2025, 05:01:02 PMSo what  is the wider opinion of Graham and JK Rowling  since this  UK court ruling?
Agree with everything they say.


Linehan and Rowling  seemed to have got a lot of  abuse over their stance.

Are they due  apologies now then?

The FA and other sporting bodies now rolling back should be the first to apologise to all women for allowing men to take their places / medals.

those fewer than 30 players and all non professional...

Ah that's all right then just the 30 men.  ::)

Quote from: Windmill abu on May 01, 2025, 07:56:51 PMAll that Graham Linehan & J K Rowling ever tried to do was protect the safe spaces that women and young girls need and deserve. While some transgender people may genuinely believe they are the opposite gender from which they were born, anyone who is anatomically male should not be allowed in to those spaces.

Was the Algerian boxer born and perceived as a female (physically)?

Did she grow up with the knowledge of her sexual composition?

so what places and medals are they taking? which was your point

FA and other sports - places and medals - ill leave you to marry the both, point is men should not have been in women's sports and from media reports any woman complaining didn't get a listening ear.

How many transgender athletes are there in the U.S.? Out of 510,000 athletes competing at the collegiate level, there are fewer than 10 who publicly identify as transgender

Probably 10 too many for some, but the above stat is probably the same across the world, using the toilet and the other instances as examples is pure daft, anyone that is a pervert will use whatever method they can to do what they do..

I'm on the fence with this and understand that there are people that are growing up, confused with who they are identity wise, biologically they are what they are born with, that's undeniable, but to rubbish what way they feel, or how they were born is wrong also.

There needs to be a channel for people of trans to be able to compete in their own area, but it is so small that they will ultimately be unable to do any competitive sports, that is not by own their choice, obviously a mixed event type thing were people are more accommodating

There are too many people on this subject that are poles apart on their views on it and jump on the small incidences that happen (obviously one is too many) and throw everyone into the same bracket 
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

There is a high correlation between autism and trans . Most people grow out of it when they grow up.
Trans activists are vile.
