A biological teenage boy that identifies as a trans girl wins Texas state women's wrestling title two years in a row. Do the girls just have to abandon their childhood dreams of a conference or state title if they have to start competing against men? What if some trans dudes start playing high school hockey and have a significant weight and speed advantage and start crushing chicks into the boards? I normally don't feel for the women's movement at all, but this is a whole new ball of crazy. I've got nieces and don't wanna see them have to forfeit childhood sports because they're getting dunked on in JV basketball.

How to solve, a trans gender classification, it would be fair and let boys and girls be boys and girls again.

If you have a dick or had a dick you don’t get to compete with women/girls. Same in reverse. No exceptions. No “identifying” is to be considered. The Dick rule should always apply.

As a society we are way too soft in that we are afraid of offending everyone. We can’t cater to everyone’s weird needs. We have to draw a line in the sand, especially when it’s biological matters like this

I guess the Dick rule doesn’t apply. No dick is involved. But if the “girl” is taking steroids, I don’t see why that is not doping and reason for disqualification.

A couple of yrs ago one of our boys got his shoulder dislocated by a girl in a tournament. Hurt his pride slightly!
