Dude "identifies" as a woman (he's not) and if he doesn't get his way he will scream, rant and file suit.

Well, guess what? Today I "identify" my broke arse self as a multimillionaire (I'm not) and I want to buy a brand spanking new G5. I'm gonna go down to where they lend money to buy brand spanking new G5s and ask for a loan. When the loan guy looks at my credit score and bank account he's going to laugh me out of his office and call security to escort me off the premises.

But before he can do that, I am going to inform him I "identify" as a multimillionaire and if he doesn't loan me the money I am going to scream, rant and file suit. Security will then come with guns drawn.

But what's the difference? He's not a woman anymore than I'm a millionaire, but he gets to do what he wants because he "identifies" as something he's not, not unlike like me "identifying" as something I'm not when asking for the loan to buy the G5.

Probably not enough of them for that and definitely not going to make money.


Most sports don't make money. If we're using that criteria, then most of the sports that the trans athletes are trying to compete in would simply go away anyway. Look at 2018 LSU. The had three revenue generating sports - football, basketball, and baseball.

Basketball and baseball were BARELY in the black, contributing just under a million each to their profits, while football basically paid for their entire athletic department.

quote:

In 2018, LSU’s athletic department reported $145 million in revenue to the NCAA. Of that, LSU reported $87 million came from football. But that doesn’t tell the whole story. LSU also reported $39 million from media rights, the result of the SEC’s negotiations with ESPN and CBS. The athletic department only credited $12 million of that to football, even though anyone in college sports would tell you the vast majority of CBS’ interest in the SEC was football-based.

Football’s real contribution was well over $100 million of LSU’s $145 million in total athletic money. But even going by LSU’s accounting, football made $55 million in profit. Men’s basketball and baseball, together, added a little less than $1 million. Everything else lost money, but thanks to football, the department still made about $8 million.



I think we have to concede for the VAST majority of athletic sports in college, profit is not a factor. Cost, perhaps, but individual athlete sports like track and field and swimming are potentially negligible.

Title IX is a huge deal and if an institution or program doesn't abide by it they can get in serious trouble.

Title IX gives women athletes the right to equal opportunity in sports in educational institutions that receive federal funds, from elementary schools to colleges and universities.

So how is it equal for the other females to have to compete against one whose body and muscle was for 20 + years a male.

Elections have Consequences, I think its hilarious. Much like the undeserving Vandy kicker who showed up and kicked like a Middle Schooler.


I have no problem with that. If Vandy wants to put themselves at a competitive disadvantage, knock yourselves out. It's when you spit in the face of reality for a competitive advantage over the field, that seems to be where I have problem.

What is the threshold of an athlete to declare themselves transgender? Do they only have to declare they identify with a certain sex? That is the definition of transgender.

Yep, letting the girl kick didn't cost another athlete an opportunity (put the regular Vandy kicker on the sideline one time) or put anybody, other than the entire Vandy FB team, at a competitive disadvantage.

If you want to put a female kicker on the field with less ability than somebody else solely to make a political statement and give up 35 yards on the kick, go for it.

But don't put a 7 foot 280 pound male who "identifies" as a female on the Vandy women's basketball team and claim it's OK. It's not.

The NCAA has some testosterone requirements:

quote:

The policy is effective starting with the 2022 winter championships. Transgender student-athletes will need to document sport-specific testosterone levels beginning four weeks before their sport's championship selections. Starting with the 2022-23 academic year, transgender student-athletes will need documented levels at the beginning of their season and a second documentation six months after the first. They will also need documented testosterone levels four weeks before championship selections. Full implementation would begin with the 2023-24 academic year.


Biologically though, unless a person undergoes it BEFORE puberty, you'd still have the benefit of years of increased testosterone increasing your muscle mass. These levels would only serve to prove you wouldn't be currently at those levels.

Boys and girls are pretty much on a level physical playing field pre-puberty. You look at times for kids for the various sports they participate in, and there's no significant advantage for either gender.

FYI - I'm not saying "we should have kids be trans" - only that from a biological standpoint, the only time you could ensure that your birth gender does not provide you with an athletic advantage or disadvantage would be to undergo these processes as a child.

So I disagree with the NCAA, as current testosterone levels do not nullify years of muscle growth.

I'm pretty sure this person wants to be considered a champion, though he was like the #462 ranked male in college swimming.

You didn't post the acceptable levels. Are the levels an issue or do they have to be the same 6 months apart? If it is level driven, then like in wrestling( weight) , will we have testosterone level classes for championships?

The level for a transgender to be eligible is 5.

However, if a biological female had a 3, they would be considered a cheater and banned from the sport.

Normal men run around 10 and normal females around 2.

I see it differently, if she had gone thru all of camp and sacrificed on the scout team like college players do, i would have no problem. Her competitive advantage was being a female...

As it pertains to swimming, this is what their parents elected. Its truly hilarous to me. I think its awful personally, but this is what the academic world gives us.
