The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee quietly changed its eligibility rules on Monday to bar transgender women from competing in Olympic women’s sports, and now will comply with President Trump’s executive order on the issue, according to a post on the organization’s website.
Sorry, what about the men’s? If you are going to side with bullshitting Nazis that just want to distract and look up girls skirts, then men are subject too and I expect them to have to drop trouser at a moments notice and have their junk inspected. This is what you want, isn’t it?
Wouldn’t it be hilarious to see a FtM athlete absolutely dominate the other men in their sport? It would be the ultimate “fuck you” to these assholes and their ignorant bigotry.
Dude they might be able to crush Gymnastics
Is there a men’s gymnastics?
Lol yes
banning trans people won’t stop republican addiction to fucking kids and projecting naive insecurities
search your feelings for you know it to be true

She was ban from a competition where gender test where mandatory Last one she participate didn’t have thoses tests She never went to one that have thoses test mandatory Like the article said “Khelif has never provided any evidence beyond her word to prove she is a woman, but has vowed to compete in the upcoming games.”
I’m more encline and it seem it s more reasonable to believe she 's not a woman than she is.

They didn’t provide that source in good faith.

Why not ban trans men too? They could have an advantage in the gymnastics and speed skating sports too from being lighter and more flexible. Or we can just not ban either and let people compete based on what they want.
Because these rules only care about men becoming women. Because the people making the rules are sexist and stupid bigots.
Patricio Manuel is 3-1 in boxing. His main issue is men won’t fight him now because they’re terrified of losing to a trans man. It’s patriarchy all the way down, so generally the accomplishments of men who’ve transitioned and suppressed, because it kind of shatters the entire ‘unfair’ claim when trans men can win. It also doesn’t help them that being a trans woman isn’t some kind of automatic win; I can’t remember her name, one woman was claimed to be ‘cheating’ because she was trans, but she got 6th in the event. So the entire ‘huge advantage for people born men’ thing keeps getting disproved time and again.
Bro got litteraly one shot by a an unknown dude that dont even have a Wikipedia page. Not sure it s an argument.
I’d boycott the games if I watched them to begin with.
Fuck this timeline. Trans lives matter.
Trans lives matter!
the ICC has always been corrupt.
To hell with the Olympics. They’re incredibly dirty, they screw over the vast majority of competing athletes, and we already have professional sports organizations that feel the same need should you be interested.

Wow they stopped maybe 5 whole people from competing in games that were supposed to be about bringing the world together that’s turned into just another shouting match between petty assholes taking the entire concept to hell.
Sports are games, fun little doofy things primarily for children that adults can like too. The shouting matches about doping, the doping itself, “no fair no fair they’re cheating,” and the massive paychecks for professional level sports are why I don’t give any of the bullshit the time of day and never will.
Leave it to humans to remove from a concept the entire reason for that concept’s creation in the first place: fun.
Fuck competition for competition’s sake. Cooperation should have been our species business. The minute both teams/players aren’t smiling and laughing after the game, the game has lost all meaning and has become a shitty game that shouldn’t exist. That goes for you NFL, NBA, and yes, even the Olympics.
Come back when it’s about the world coming together again and not geopolitical medal count competition screeching.
I think a lot of people are just going to skip these Olympics. Sucks for the athletes though
