Siso Posted Saturday at 07:06 AM Posted Saturday at 07:06 AM My major concern about what people have or had in their pants when it comes to sport. Even tjings like darts and snooker. Men are generally taller than women so have an advantage with reach. 1

Even tjings like darts and snooker. Men are generally taller than women so have an advantage with reach. Whilst I don't doubt that there are problems to be worked out, it is not insurmountable. Consider a sport such as wrestling or boxing. Within one gender, there is a range of sizes and weights. They don't pair up a 110kg competitor with a 60kg competitor. They have weight classes. The fact is that sport only works when it is competitive. We don't team up professionals with amateurs; it would not be interesting to watch. The point is that these problems have solutions. In any case, the sports argument is often that is presented is "what about sport" as if this is an argument against trans is and an argument about sports. Now personally, I have little interest sport however, I suspect these issues of competitiveness regarding gender are as solvable as problems of different weight and size, as well as experience. 3 1
facthunter Posted Saturday at 09:06 AM Posted Saturday at 09:06 AM There IS generally a Mens and a Womens sport separation, but not always. In the recent Finke River event, IT was all in. To my observation Most disputation on this Matter is Very anti , sex change people. . Nev 1

Siso Posted 14 hours ago Posted 14 hours ago (edited) Finke is a free for all but they still have a womens class, which by the way i think is a great thing. Love seeing women compete in things like motorcycle riding. Tried to get my daughter into it a bit, she can ride but was more academic type. Edited 14 hours ago by Siso 1
facthunter Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago There were about 5 Women in the Last event. They Placed in and ran with all the Others. IF someone decides to rate how they rated between themselves THAT is not really doing anything special for them. They started based on established times like any other competitor in the event. Nev
