I’d say it takes cojones to speak out like that, but in his case he manages without.

Transgender sports insanity is an assault on society and morality.

Lance knows about cheating, and he recognizes that transgender men in women’s sports is cheating.

Lance has admitted to his history of cheating in the sport of bicycling, but I’m still glad he took a stand on this issue.

For those calling for three categories (Men - Women - Other), the trannies and all those on the Left will never go for it. They want total and complete acceptance that a man can become a woman, and vice versa.

Just go home Lance, and ST*U.

A lot of us were sick of you and your little "Livestrong" outfit, and your cameo movie appearances making you out to be some sort of hero long before you got popped for doping.

I wonder why they wouldn't want that...

No special categories! Biological males and females only. This category would turn every sporting event into a circus and an opportunity to promote perversity.

There is a very simple solution for running sports of any kind... DNA.

If you have a ‘Y’ chromosome... You compete as a ‘Y’ athlete (commonly referred to as ‘male’).

If your have a ‘X’ chromosome... You compete as an ‘X’ athlete (commonly referred to as ‘female’).

Problem solved.

I’m ok with men competing with liberal women. Their voting habits created this mess.

Without free speech, we have nothing but slavery. And it seems that it was the Left wants...and enslaved populous.

I think it is time for everyone to speak out and stop letting the slime intimidate us. They can’t stop us all. The wave needs to keep getting bigger until it overtakes the slime.

Good for Lance.
