Would you be ok with your son competing with females in sports?



If your son couldn't compete with men in sports and decided to transition in order to dominate females, would you be ok with it? Consider the money that comes with being a star athlete when it comes to endorsements and book deals.

If it was a one-on-one sport like wrestling I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Absolutely not. But my kids would know that there are no shortcuts and if you want to be the best, get better. Don't cheat by pretending you're a different gender.

All sports should just ditch weight and gender classes and just let the best person win.

Equal rights, equal lefts.

Wasn't this the case historically? And just didn't make sense for women to compete.

The split is there for the sport to be inclusive, it's just ironic that inclusivity results in women suffering and likely dropping out of competitive sport.

Well who the hell wants to watch noncompetitive sports?

Pro womens sports are the equivalent of high-school junior varsity boys.

Actually most pro woken would lose to a good JV team.

I’m cool with him practicing with women in things like tennis/basketball/martial arts sparring, etc. As far as competing goes, as long as it’s in anything that doesn’t give him a massive advantage. Shooting ranges/archery, bowling, golf, skating, skiing, snowboarding, surfing, etc.

I would hope he's too good at the sport for that. If he can't compete with the men then time to consider something else.
