I think most would agree with my general assessment that it's wrong for transgender women (born male) to participate in competitive female sporting events.

I'd like to hear a logical explanation for why some deem it OK for people born as males to compete in the female category.

If the LGBTQ crowd is looking for acceptance and/or inclusion, these types of stories (which are becoming more and more common) are doing the complete opposite.

This isn't about whether transgender is right or wrong unto itself.
No matter how a person feels about it, it's reality and nobodies business but their own.

Until they do things like this.
IMHO

Instead of a asterisk in front of the record they should put a T.

Seems to me, the solution is rather simple, if perhaps a bit burdensome for some event organizers. Throw in another category for all trans anything's. M>F, F>M, unsures, etc. No reason that I can think of for any non trans to have to compete against any trans.

That is as insensitive a comment as I have ever read on this forum... Why don't we take all of em and ship em off to a remote island somewhere... No need for any non trans to interact with them, right?

Dude.
They don't even want a third category bathroom.

True story.
