PRESIDENT Joe Biden just nailed the final nail on the coffin of women’s sports.
Yes, the end of women’s sports as we know it to be was killed by this (excerpts from a Jan. 21, 2021 article by pstarr@breitbart.com):
Biden’s executive order on transgender rights ‘unilaterally eviscerates women’s sports’
Hours after taking the oath of office, President Joe Biden signed an executive order on Wednesday giving sweeping “rights” to men and women who want to live as the opposite biological sex, including allowing these transgender individuals to compete in sports.
“On Day 1, Biden unilaterally eviscerates women’s sports,” author Abigail Shrier posted on Twitter. “Any educational institution that receives federal funding must admit biologically-male athletes to women’s teams, women’s scholarships, etc.”
And that executive order from Biden is the final nail from a string of “politically correct” nonsense. Here are excerpts from an article for the DailyMail.com by Kelly McLaughlin:
Transgender athletes to be allowed to compete as the other sex in the Olympics without having gender reassignment surgery
The Olympics are reportedly adopting a new policy that opens the field of competition to transgender athletes.
The International Olympic Committee received proposed guidelines in November from its ‘Consensus Meeting on Sex Reassignment and Hyperandrogenism’, which allow for broader policies that would include transgender athletes.
The current Olympic rules acknowledge transgender athletes’ right to compete, but with specific provisions under the Stockholm Consensus, which was adopted in 2004.
The policies, adopted before the Athens Olympics, say transgender athletes have to have gender reassignment surgery and have legal recognition of the gender they were assigned at birth. They also have to have undergone at least two years of hormone replacement therapy after surgery.
The proposed new rules would allow transgender athletes to compete after one year of hormone replacement therapy and no surgery is required.
Your sexual preference or what you fancy yourself to be does not define your sex. If you’re born with a penis and testicles, you are a male. If you are born with a vagina and ovaries, you are a female and no liberal politically correct nonsense, hormonal injections and surgical alterations will change that. At the end of the day you are just a surgically altered male or female.

Transgender athletes will spell the end of women’s sports
That concept of unfair advantage is the very reason we do not support the move toward allowing biological males to compete in female sports. It is a highly charged political topic, but it should not be if those debating would remember what we were taught as kids about fair play.
It doesn’t matter where you fall on the political divide. Both the far left and the far right should be able to concede that men are biologically stronger than women.
This is not a distinction of value, but a distinction of difference. Men are not smarter, more valued, or more worthy of praise than women—their biological makeup simply renders them stronger, faster, and bigger than women.
The issue of whether a boy should dress like and identify as a girl, or undergo surgery to “become” a girl, is a moral and ethical issue for another article. But the question of whether a boy, once he identifies as a girl, should have the right to play on the girl’s sports team is easy. The answer is no.

Martina Navratilova: Transgender athletes in women’s sport is Insane, cheating
Martina Navratilova does not believe transgender women should be able to compete against ciswomen.
The former tennis star wrote an op-ed in the Sunday Times detailing why she feels the practice is unfair.
“It’s insane and it’s cheating. I am happy to address a transgender woman in whatever form she prefers, but I would not be happy to compete against her. It would not be fair,” Navratilova wrote.
The 62-year-old came out in 1981 and has been a gay rights activist after her playing career, but she thinks men would force their way into women’s competitions if transgender women are allowed to compete.
“To put the argument at its most basic: a man can decide to be female, take hormones if required by whatever sporting organization is concerned, win everything in sight and perhaps earn a small fortune, and then reverse his decision and go back to making babies if he so desires,” she wrote.
“You can’t just proclaim yourself a female and be able to compete against women,” the 18-time Grand Slam champion wrote. “There must be some standards, and having a penis and competing as a woman would not fit that standard.”
Of course, I fully agree with Martina Navratilova and its quite ironic that one of the very first athletes who stood up proudly as a lesbian is now standing up against the hypocrisy and stupidity in sports.
This is an insult to natural women and degrades their very essence as a woman to perform their best and compete in sports.
Natural women should be up in arms against this insult and disrespect, it seems nothing is sacred anymore.
Just imagine if Lebron James suddenly identifies himself as a “woman” and competes in the WNBA and women’s basketball in the Olympics, or if Usain Bolt also identifies himself as a “woman” and competes in women’s track and field in the Olympics.
Or worst Michael Phelps wearing women’s swimsuit with his penis and testicles quite obvious competing in the Olympics as a “woman” just because he suddenly identifies himself as a “woman”.
Sports ,the last remaining venue where one competes in an atmosphere of fairplay and you win because of hard training and one’s natural talent as a natural woman or man, is shattered because of some liberal politically correct nonsense./PN
