Transgender teen wins regional wrestling title despite attempt to ban him from competing

The winning wrestler pulled a tearful runner-up next to him on the victory stand, and they exchanged a hug after a match that never took place. Mack Beggs, a transgender 17-year-old at Euless Trinity, won the girls 110-pound championship at Saturday's Class 6A Region II wrestling meet after a Coppell wrestler forfeited the final. Beggs, a junior, is taking testosterone while transitioning from female to male. Madeline Rocha's forfeit came 11 days after a lawsuit was filed against the University Interscholastic League by Coppell attorney and wrestling parent Jim Baudhuin, urging the governing body to suspend Beggs because of the use of the steroid.

It appears women are getting the short end of the stick in the transgender wars.

From bathrooms to beat downs.

“They might as well get rid of women sports altogether.”

According to Title Whatever, they’d then have to get rid of men’s sports.

Does anyone else think these kind of articles gets confusing. girl, boy she , and he.

Call the freak what it is, and stop encouraging this sickness.

I watched the Harlem Globetrotters this weekend. They have a female player now (how surprising!). I have no problem with this. It’s forward thinking: mixing the genders together in athletic competition confirms the game as purely inauthentic (a.k.a., FAKE).

we went from a western world of vikings, knights, and warriors to a bunch of pansy, weirdo’s, and freaks.

This is why I love the President. He wants to bring back sanity to the west. It is why the left hates him , and why they hate places like eastern Europe and Russia.

It is an interesting sequence of events.
It is considered "fashionable" to some people to surround themselves with these oddities and then complain when things don't go according to script.

But the left LOVED eastern Europe and Russia when they were all-out communist!

Logical solution:

Trans born male - to compete as a female must have had genitals removed before puberty. Then ok.

Trans born female - to compete as a male must have had the addadictomy surgery (to include grapes). But no testosterone injections - as an over dispensation of the drug can give ‘him’ an unfair advantage.

Yes, the girl thinks she's a boy but wrestles on a girls' team; however, in the article she is called he. It's a new Tower of Babel.

When I did a job up in Boston I met women who used these freaks as like a trophy. they loved to brag they had a homosexual friend.
One women in a bar told me I had to be introduced to a guy who had walked in. She said he was a woman. He was about 6ft 2 looked like a proper freak too. I declined to meet him, and then she brought him over to me. yes I refused to shake his hand, and I walked away letting him know what I thought.

Have not been back to Boston in years, and have no intention of ever doing so

I have to read the article 3 times to understand what the writer is saying, and if it is a boy or girl. Does not help when the writer states it;s a boy, but really it is a girl.

The Globetrotters have a couple of terrific young women playing for them, and they add to the show. They would not survive five minutes on an NBA court where the show is for real. But the ‘Trotters are a performance, so no foul having the gals participate.

The womyn you speak of are ignoring this in the same way they ignore jihadi brutality towards women.

Proof positive that in the Liberal Hierarchy of Sacred Values so-called women’s rights comes dead last. Millions of miles behind “transgender rights” and light years behind the rights of muzzies to beat women, enslave women, sexually mutilate women and stone women to death for the crime of having been raped.

At least girl changed to boy competing against girls is fairer than male changed to girl competing against girls. Got that?

Parents are already holding little Jr. back from 1st grade until he turns 7 so he’ll be a year bigger when he gets to high school sports. Other parents are brainwashing little Billy into becoming princess Billie all decked out in pink tutus and injections. It would be a small step for them to whack off their pre-pub babies’ organs.
