[WHOA! WHO KNEW??? WHOEVER COODA TOLE???] -

A recent study has shown that biological males identifying as transgender women, still retained considerable advantages over biological females in strength and muscle mass, even after a full year of hormone therapy.

The study, conducted by the the Karolinska Institute — a medical university in Sweden — and Linkoping University, a university in Sweden, showed that the biological males (transgender women) who took a full year of hormone therapy, still had muscle mass and strength advantages.

I’ve also heard more red blood cells. There was some study of labor hours during WWII ... men working 12 hour shifts had fewer injuries and fatigue issues than women because of biological differences like that.

Someday --- someday soon --- a female athlete is going to die in competition with a male. And everybody knows it. And unless we, the socially backwards, sexist misogynistic right-wingers, put an end to it. nobody's going to stop it.

Who cares? The feminists and LIBs have what they want. Let them experience the consequences of their lunacy. What nitwits.

That explains part of it. I never thought of that.

There’s more than hormones that separate men and women. They developed differently in the womb. You can’t change that.

I can't be 100% certain, but I am pretty sure that what you just posted is homophobic or racists. Well, at least that is what they tell me. I need to go to the you tubes and check. Wait here...

Where does it say, “diversity is our strength,” other than in a Hillary speech or some other commie rant?

I never thought of that. You’re right.

But the liberal commies will just say, “Sheeeee BEGGED for it!! Sheeeeee WANTED it!!!”

Or some other stupid democrat crap, and it will be forgotten, swept under the carpet, and her parents ridiculed, and the killer will have songs written for HIM.

That pic is not quite what it seems - the person applying the chokehold is biological female transitioning to male - and Texas requires one to compete in their biological birth - IMO they should allow women to compete against men but not men against women. Trans should have nothing to do with it.

I see “women” at the gym who have gargantuan arms, shoulders, and backs.

I don’t know if these are actually “men,” or what. I do know that no “woman” can be built like a male weightlifter unless “she” he or IT is taking some chemical.

I have also seem very strong actual women, but it’s a different sort of muscle—not male beef power. It’s a feminine kind of strong muscle. Some, I’m sure, are stronger than some actual men.

The brains of a male and female are visibly different.

That’s actually a really bad picture they are using for this.

That “guy” in the picture is actually a biological female. She’s taking hormones because she’s transitioning to be a male. She wanted to wrestle against the boys but the state of Texas forced her to stay with the girls.

Everyone focuses in on boys transitioning to be girls. But there’s a lot of girls transitioning to be boys too that gets almost no attention. Because of that, the Texas law didn’t take this situation into account. So now you can have girls taking testosterone competing against girls.

We needed a “study” to tell us what is obvious? There are two sexes, and on average, the male sex is stronger than the female. Of course the average does not mean every male is stronger than any female!

Humans have had two separate teams for most sports as long as I’ve been around, because of the obvious fact.

There is no transgender anything. No one changes his/her sex.

BUMP! XX will always be XX and XZ will always be XY.

All the hormones and body desecration surgery in the world can’t change your DNA.

It’s a shame sports officials don’t have the cojones to insist on DNA testing of the competitors and put an end to this sham.

That’s what I have said on this and always attacked for it.

Majority of women keep voting for the Democrats. So this is their problem as far as I’m concerned. Keep voting for progressives and Democrats and radical feminists and this is the stuff you are going to get.
