What do you think of trans athletes competing against biological females?

It seems unfair. Men are naturally more muscular than women and higher levels of testosterone may give a competitive advantage. There should be some metric that physically establishes physical gender as a requirement to competing. I think if a male is taking hormones but still has a wiener they should still be considered male. It leads us down the path of what makes a man separate from a woman? Hormone levels? Physical anatomy? Emotional identification of gender? It’s such a sticky subject. Or should trans athletes compete only against other trans athletes? Does this then become discrimination?

Ya know what is funny in this debate is how both sides of lib and con are changing themselves.
Libs were always on the side of women's rights. And now when trannies are trying to integrate themselves into women's sports the libs are on their side because they are afraid to discriminate the trannies!
Repubs are always against equal rights for women and trying to control their bodies.
And now they are against trannies integrating themselves into women's sports as if they now care about women's rights pointing out how unfair this is to women!
So I see hypocrisy coming from both sides.

Republicans are NOT against equal rights for women. They're against women
murdering innocent unborn babies.
They're also against
men
murdering innocent unborn babies. So no, it is NOT hypocricy!
MAGA! FAFO!

Except they are not sentient babies/beings since they are unborn, so I do have to add there is a degree of hypocrisy and not all republicans would think it is murder either and many republicans would have also had abortions, or engaged in them.

Are you
actually
saying that they only become sentient beings
after they're born??
So they're NOT sentient beings 30 seconds
before they're born?
That's BULLSHIT! They are human beings
regardless
of where they are in the growth process, and
abortion is murder!

Science says they are not sentient until birthed.
How many babies are aborted 30seconds before they are born? If there are childbirth complications this could happen, but that is for the sake of the mother's life.
The vast majority of pregnant women would know if they want their child or not by the first trimester and who is to know who has had abortions in their lifetime?
You may be surprised at how many women abort their child and they just take a pill for it.
If you found out someone you love and care about had an abortion, would you label her a murderer? Its inconsequential to anyone else.

Bullshit!
Science does NOT say that! It's murder!
And okay, you want to quibble about the 30 seconds? Then where do you draw the line? Two minutes? Two weeks? Two months? Six months? Who gets to play god and decide that??

Science doesn’t say it’s murder either, that is just your distorted judgement here.
You certainly don’t get to decide what is murder based on something that has sweet FA to do with you and God has nothing to do with it.
You are being completely and utterly wrongheaded on this subject and I don’t understand why it outrages you. You are sounding off like an hysterical loony leftist.

Science has nothing to do with it. Murder is a
legal
term. And yes, as a matter of fact, I DO get to decide that it's murder. That's my opinion, and I have a right to it. And my reference to god was
metaphorical,
since I'm an Agnostic.
And it's also my opinion that YOU are utterly wrongheaded and rather arrogant on this subject. And abortion angers me because it's the premeditated killing of a human being, i.e. murder. And I can't understand why you can't can't comprehend that.

So you are saying science does determine a fetus as a sentient being, living and breathing CO2?
You may need to look at the kind of person you have become, instead of getting all fessed up and wrongheaded about something that you have a distorted stance on and not to mention displaced control issues regarding abortion.
No one said you couldn't have an opinion, but its like anything on here, no one said others have to agree with it either and as often happens, some opinions that are wrongheaded will get challenged.
Stop it with your virtue signalling, because the reality is, is you don't really care.

I'll say this again, since you were obviously
not
paying attention. Science has
nothing
to do with murder. Murder is a
legal and moral term.
And you need to look at the kind of person
you are,
instead of being so arrogant, and claiming that I'm wrongheaded. Do you have a monopoly on truth? Your opinion of my stance is just that,
your opinion.
And I didn't say you needed to
agree
with my opinion. Just don't
insult
me about it. And I'm
not
virtue signaling, I'm expressing my opinion.
And you say I don't care? When did you obtain the power to know what someone else is thinking? That is more
arrogance
. I'm beginning to understand why so many people voted you as a bad poster in a recent poll. You're very arrogant.

Murder is a legal and moral term.
And how does that make abortion murder and based on whose abstract legalities and whose abstract morals?
And you need to look at the kind of person you are, instead of being so arrogant, and claiming that I'm wrongheaded. Do you have a monopoly on truth? Your opinion of my stance is just that, your opinion.
Your stance is wrongheaded, because you are being immoral and unethical due to ignorant condemnation and if I'm being arrogant here, its because I'm being confronted with it.
I didn't say you needed to agree with my opinion. Just don't insult me about it. And I'm not virtue signaling, I'm expressing my opinion.
You are expressing a virtue signalling opinion about some abstract thing that gets aborted. It doesn't exist, it doesn't affect you and you are getting all outraged. That is ripe for insulting.
When did you obtain the power to know what someone else is thinking? That is more arrogance. I'm beginning to understand why so many people voted you as a bad poster in a recent poll. You're very arrogant.
Your tells are showing. I may be arrogant, but at least I'm one of the best….
Norman! What did you put in my tea?
