They probably don’t want to be sexually harassed by their teammates.

Who cares about women in sports? If that woman has, or ever had, testicles between its legs it ain’t a woman.
The Olympics are not going to survive so I think the USA should save money in the future by withdrawing now.

Get Out Now!

Not just that, but history shows when a few lesbians get on a team, they take over and make life for straights unbearable, to the point where they quit, and then the team pretty much becomes all lesbian over time.

Quinn is a woman who used to go by her given name of Rebecca. She then embarked on her gender confusion journey. She goes by “Quinn.” Her preferred pronoun is they. She is supposedly trans but if she’s a trans man, one would think she should play with the men since the trans women insist on playing with the women. But Quinn still plays with the women on account of her sex, not her gender. If the trans women played with the men because of their sex, most of this problem would go away. But clearly the rule is that rainbow types can do whatever they want, and anybody who wants a clear rule is a bigot.

My question about Quinn is whether she is taking testosterone. She looks pretty muscular. If she’s bulked up on PEDs, she shouldn’t be playing against women. What is the current Olympic rule?

Canada women's soccer will do no worse than silver after beating the U.S. women's national team in the Olympic semifinal round Monday.

Poetic justice.

How to square this with what Biden says about women.

“There’s not a single thing a man can do that a woman can’t do as well or better. Not a single thing.”

Where are all the tranny women pretending to be men out competing the men?

I grew up before all this woke BS and massive corporate deals for athletes. All the olympians from my little resort town came back and started ski shops. No multi million dollar contracts with them to say how horrible the USA is for Nike.

Bruce Jenner was well ahead of his time, winning the Olympic Gold Medal in 1976. She is a real heroine, don’t you know.

The Olympics used to have a sports component to it, now it’s all about wokeness, mental illness and sex.

Biden should launch "The Joseph R. Biden Transsexual Athletes' Special Olympics" to be held every four years in Wilmington, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, and the like. Probably not very popular in Tehran, Moscow or Mogadishu.

I was always picked last, too. I would never try for an Olympic men’s soccer team (or try to pass on a women’s soccer team — gross!).

Interesting how Henrich-Dora Ratjen, a man who competed as a woman in the 1936 Olympics is never mentioned. His medals were confiscated and his name purged when it was found he was a man and not a woman.

Should be the same today.

Henrich Ratjen ran as a woman in the 1936 Olympics with Nazi blessings..

When it was found he was not a woman his medals were confiscated and his name purged.

Maybe the Nazi connection is why he is not listed as the first man-woman athlete.
