    Hahahaha

    You could also change it to "Would Jon hit it?"

    Nevermind, that doesn't help at all.

          I've got no problem with letting people live their lives as they see fit as long as it doesn't interfere with other people's rights to live their lives as they see fit.

          This is interfering with these young ladies' lives.

                There is just no way that “girl” isn’t a narcissistic sociopath. Every single trans woman who basks in the glory of winning these athletic competitions, will be one. Progressive pop culture hasn’t thought through very well the self selected group of people they are throwing their weight behind.

                      If the ERA becomes law you won't have to go the trans route.

                      Just beat them straight up, no hormones needed.

                        Is there any actual current rule that would limit a Lia Thomas sort to just identify as a woman and compete against women? Or is there some sort of rule, an accidental nod to reality, saying the trans woman has to have had hormones or a procedure?

                          I believe there is some kind of hormone limits. I heard an announcer mention something about that the other day. Apparently Mx Thomas followed the NCAA rules.

                            I bet they even have rules against steroids.

                              It’s a bit more controversial than that, The NCAA originally punted and deferred to the national authorities for the various sports. When that came out it included a time restriction that would have eliminated Thomas. So the NCAA did their own rule after all.

                                      This site compares high school national champion boys times vs womens Olympic times. Scroll down to the swimming.

                                      Seems like 60% greater upper body strength and a larger heart and lungs might just make a difference.

                                          On twitter there is a video of two members of the crowd watching the race, discussing Thomas.

                                          One of them says, "I'm not a veterinarian, but I know what a dog looks like."
