I'm 41 years old. There is male and female. Those are the two genders/sexes. Everything else is a persons preferred form of sexual intercourse. A straight male is just as male as a gay, bi, or whatever. They are all males. Same with females. Who you prefer to engage in sexual intercourse with dors not change your gender. Neither does changing your sexual orfans and taking hormone therapy. If a person was killed in a fire and was marred beyond recognition, and they did a genetic test on them they would either be male or female and it would be whatever they were born as. Sorry but your argument holds zero water.

This. I'm fine with Lia being/identifying as a woman. I'm not fine with being forced to compete against her. That's simply not a fair competition. I think the issue is where the cutoff line is going to be because I think it would probably be fair if she'd never gone through male puberty but there are some things that can't be fixed simply by taking hormones, especially after the fact.

A metric ton of estrogen would fix it…


I totally agree with I could care less about all the gender stuff as long as they don’t infringe on my rights.

Crap, my wife is left handed.
Good bye VN, I’ve had a pretty good run. Our 25th anniversary is 3/22…she will likely dismember me with a silver knife to honor the Silver Anniversary celebration. 😳

My wife is left handed, red headed, and a little chubby. We celebrated 20 years of marriage in December. I learned to sleep with my eyes open years ago. Good luck Doc

My wife and I reach the 18 year mark on Sunday. We were going to go on a marriage retreat but unfortunately her grandfather passed away this past week. We are having his funeral tomorrow. We will have to find another time to celebrate. Here's hoping your wife doesn't kill you.

They need to pinpoint that better than they have based on her earlier performances (her times were absurd compared to the field). The arguments I heard prior were based on reductions in her performance as a female swimmer compared to her times as a male swimmer as somehow being proof that all was well. But for argument's sake (completely made up numbers follow for simplicity), if a male starts with a 200 percent advantage over the average female and that advantage is reduced by 180 percent by hormone therapy there's still a 20 percent advantage not being accounted for. Don't come at me with the argument that prior time's have been reduced by 180 percent because that's incredibly disingenuous.

I think we will eventually get there in terms of policy but right now we aren't close. What I truly don't understand is how utterly tone deaf Lia is. I mean I have some really catty things to say about that and I don't tend towards catty or mean but she's assuming that she has a right to an extremely limited set of resources that women have been denied for decades without giving the women around her so much as a 'hello, my name is...."
