Keep trying to make those likes stick

Dress however you please.
Call yourself whatever you like.
Sleep with any consenting adult who’ll have you.
Live your best life in peace and security.
But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real?

Blinded by ideology, paralysed by politics.

@BBCWomansHour @lauragrb @BBCNuala Oh dear, there's an elephant in the room and you are too chicken to even go there. ...

This has been an important Olympics, for intellectually discriminating sports fans. It has been divisive - between the spined and the spineless, the serious and the clowns, the honest people and the charlatans.

I'm pleased about that.

Well said, Matthew Pinsent.

Don’t you see? Don’t you see what this insanity is doing to women?? WHY DO GIRLS HAVE TO SHARE THEIR BATHROOMS W/BOYS? THEIR LOCKER ROOMS? THEIR SPORTS? THEIR PRISONS? WHY DO 4th GRADE BOYS HAVE TO SHARE THEIRS W/GIRLS (& THEIR TAMPONS) IN MN? NONE OF THIS IS NORMAL, SAFE OR FAIR

This brave trans-species athlete just smashed Usain Bolt’s world record in the 100m.

So thrilled to see that the cheetah won. 👏🥳

This one suddenly seems quite relevant again...

There is a reason that the wolf preying on Little Red Riding Hood wore a dress.

Sure seems like unequal justice in the UK

[Martina Navratilova @Martina]

Apparently it’s called a rabbit punch and it is illegal. Ref was asleep I guess

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

4 punches to the back of the head (by a male nonetheless)??? And not a SINGLE point deducted???

If there were one video to portray the negligence and the cowardice of the IOC, this is it.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

Why does this MP hate female athletes so much they’d write this? There is/was a serious risk of life changing injury putting a male in a boxing ring with females. This statement is just staggeringly ignorant!

It’s 2030 in the UK & you’re being executed for posting a meme …

[Helen Lewis @helenlewis]

People kept asking me in person to explain the debate over the Olympic boxers, so I figured it was more efficient to write it down for @TheAtlantic

Everyone has the right to believe anything they want. And everyone else has the right to believe that those beliefs are fucking ridiculous. Cheers.

I understand the need for empathy when it comes to transgender athletes. I understand that Iman Khalid is DSD and obviously this must be very challenging in ways we can’t imagine. That said, where is the empathy for women with XX chromosomes who train their entire life only to be potentially met with an unfair playing field and in extreme cases, safety concerns.

It’s entirely unacceptable that the rights and opinions of ALL stakeholders, explicitly including xx female athletes are not being considered. The punishment and reprisal of these women for voicing their feelings on the matter is bordering on fascistic.   
 
Their concerns should be closely considered as an entire generation of upcoming girls may never get the opportunity to fulfill their dreams no matter how hard they work. The scholarships, titles, world records, prize money, Olympic opportunities, endorsement deals could all eventually become out of reach. This looks like a world without Serena Williams, Lindsay Vonn, Simone Biles, Ronda Rousey and many more.

Only when we agree that these issues must be addressed can we truly work toward solutions for inclusion, safety, and fairness. Each governing body for all sports needs to grow a spine, look at the data, and seek out solutions. Stop gaslighting the world by claiming there is no cause for concern. Only a flat earther would actually believes this! People just fear retribution should they point out a naked emperor.

Amazing

[Jon Pike @runthinkwrite]

@PennyRed Because we have a classification system that 'controls out' male advantage in women's sport. The existence of women's sport depends on excluding those advantages that are caused by being male. If you are opposed to this, that entails being opposed to women's sport.

[Ross Tucker @Scienceofsport]

@PennyRed Because if we recognize ONLY natural advantage, then the biggest one is being male. And so in sport, it would mean that "being male" (or having male advantage) would become a talent. And being female a disadvantage. Female sport exists to exclude that "talent", to create fairness
