The post match shower room should be entertaining.

If you can’t compete according to the rules, cheat.

Wait until this spills over to the Olympics or women’s collegiate sports. Or maybe the WTA.

>>Where is the feminist outrage?<<

Women’s issues are now #3 on the pantheon of liberal outrage.

#3 — women’s sports (Title IX) — trumped by:
#2 — transgenderism + gay (guys can do sports and women will never be able to compete again) — trumped by
#1 — ISLAM!!! Kill gay and transgendered and render the problem moot!

You gotta love liberalism — it has agendas not morals.

When just about every dollar of women’s athletic scholarship awards at the college level goes to girls with Y chromosomes, the lib contingent may wake up (but I doubt it).

It already has: http://www.womensmediacenter.com/feature/entry/sex-testing-for-female-olympic-athletes-is-a-thing-of-the-past-at-least-for
“But at the 2016 Rio Olympics, for the first time in more than half a century, female competitors are not subject to any form of sex testing, thanks to one Indian athlete who successfully fought her ban.

In 2014, Dutee Chand, a 20-year-old runner hailing from a weaver’s family in the eastern Indian state of Odisha, was banned from competing in the female category and dropped from the Commonwealth Games under the International Association of Athletics Federations’ (IAAF) guidelines that disqulify athletes with hyperandrogenism—excessive but naturally occurring testosterone.”

I think it is hilarious that feminists who worked so hard to make sure that womyns sports got equal resources will now be completely dominated by MEN who need only sing “I feel pretty.”

If a guy is willing to use drugs to win, calling himself “Catlyn” is a LOT easier on the body to win.

Besides, other than gymnastics, tennis (51%), volleyball and a few other sports, women competitionlooks like guys on the field anyway.

No one who will pay $$ will mourn the loss of womens’ sports.

You can call a bull a cow if you want to. If you have enough political power, you may make a law that says everyone has to call a bull a cow. But when milking time comes, don’t be handing me that milking pail, buster. You’re on your own. Because I’m not a fool, and I won’t pretend to be a fool because of peer pressure.

You’ve created this monster. And now you can live with it.

Yes, but unfortunately, so do the rest of us.

This is sick and sad but not at all surprising. This crap has been gaining momentum for years. In a broader sense even up to professional levels,sports as we know it is slowly dying.

The girls could stop this nonsense if they refused to show up for any meets.

But that would take a lot of fortitude.

Nazis did it first. 1936 Olympics. Heinrich/Dora Ratjen.

What other “new things” the Nazis did will become A-OK in the future? Showers for undesirables?
