Not sure what they would say about trans sexual men competing as women in the running competitions in Paris at the Olympics next summer in 2024. If that is even the right term. It would probably vary individual Olympian to Olympian.

Whats with calling generation 1925-1945 Traditionalists, I thought we were the The Silent Generation?
As for all this 'Identifying' stuff, I wouldn't be surprised if my Grandson 'comes out' and Identifies as "Ex-Box!"

Transgender issues like so many other minority (not race) issues are amplified by the media creating a false presence.

The way one was born is the majority determinant ......when you rearrange the spots on a leopard you still have a leopard!!!!

Are you referring to visible physical characteristics or internal brain development as a fetus? Usually these are in sync, it seems sometimes they are not.

As far as competitive physical sports are involved, the physical characteristics should matter.

So what about all the years the Russians were trying to do this with their women athletes and the world was trying to prove it and stop them. This whole issue is ridiculous.
