VICTORY!!! LPGA to change policy on ‘female at birth’

[NUMBERICA]

Hurtful? To whom? Your family? Your friends? Honestly, have you ever thought about how this affects your family or have you mostly been concerned about yourself? I guess the most important part of all this is, YOU DESERVE YOUR HAPPINESS! Screw the rest of the world.



Surrounding yourself with enablers to feel better about yourself is classic narcissistic behavior.

If you don't understand how disgusting this is, your parents did a bad job.

News this big deserves a new thread. There was quite a debate when I first posted the news of Lana Lawless suing the LPGA. I am very happy to see this news tonight. I commend the LPGA for doing the right thing, even though it took a lawsuit to do so. Now the LPGA agrees with me, and many others, that there is no reason to keep a transgender woman from competing. This is a wonderful victory for the transgender community.

Wow, they will double their viewership to 4 people weekly.

shut up, jesus

i fully agree with the op, but this thread is going to be really depressing

I'm sorry I offended you, you should be more tolerant however.

Its a simple fact though that God gave me an aggressive and thoroughly unpleasant personality. Since he made me this way and he does not make mistakes. I feel I have carte blanche to be unpleasant and you have an obligation to not only accept my behaviour but also to promote it and thoroughly endorse it. Otherwise, you will be pilloried as an opponent of personality diversity.

consider the source....

I'm sorry?

this is a wildly contrived scenario built on a number of specious and offensive assumptions, such as that transgender women have a significant athletic advantage over at birth women, or that any pga runoff could dominate the lpga

i dont have a dog in this fight, and am not against the lpga decision. and i think its patently ridiculous that anybody would think that somebody would undergo gender reassignment with participation on the LPGA being even moderately motivating.


That said, your statements here are utterly dismissive of very real sex differences. It should be obvious that any pga runoff could dominate the lpga given annika sorenstams relative mediocrity in the PGA tour. And it should also be obvious that things such as limb length alone should give transgender women a significant advantage over at-birth women.

One interesting aspect of this, though, is male advantage in spatial reasoning. Would the hormone therapy feminize the brain to an extent that would eliminate this advantage, or perhaps the people who select for this reassignment had more feminine brains in the first place...

Anyway, whatever.

My feelings exactly.

sad world we live in.

i'm am really saddened by these "cosmetic" surgeries, no matter how much surgeries they do they are still a man.

i will cry a tear when i go to sleep tonight or maybe i should do a dolphinoplasty.

True story: I would accept 100 transgender children before I'd feel good about having one kid that's this big an *******.

Numberica is right; your parents failed at promoting within you a basic sense of decency and empathy.

Some of the comments in here are just insane. Utah has got to be the most bigoted place in the country.

No offense Dave, but was your marriage an arranged marriage?

Congrats on passing the NY bar.
