Give me a break. I thought you MAGAs detested the victim mentality. If my kid spent years moaning about “missing a podium moment,” I would know that I failed as a parent.

+1 i’m glad about this change but completely agree with this

I'm sympathetic to the swimmers who were impacted by the lack of common sense regarding Thomas. Especially because the swimmers who spoke up about the issue were dismissed as bigots. Even the PP's editorializing that their complains were "moaning" is dismissive and gaslighting.

In the end, the people who opposed categorizing Thomas in the women's group and allowing her to compete directly against women despite a clear physical advantage that no cis woman has, were proven right. But now PP wants to call those clearly valid arguments petty "moaning." Nope. Those swimmers had and continue to have the right to view what happened here as unjust.

+1

The PP and the others in this thread attacking Riley Gaines and the other swimmers who stood up for themselves are engaging in typical misogynist minimization of women who speak up for themselves. It’s classic in its form: attack looks, describe the fight to push back against sexism and misogyny as “moaning” or “whining,” imply ulterior motives, etc.

If you removed the context, and lined the quotes up, the sexist language is identical to the language used by far right activists to attack women who are pro-choice. And that is because the underlying driver in both cases is roiling misogyny. One of the saddest aspects of the rise in gender ideology is that it has laid bare the fact that there is very little difference on both ends of the political spectrum when it comes to how much they hate women.

BS narrative.

The left does not hate women.

GTFO.

It’s unlikely PP is a MAGA. This is a 90/10 issue. It’s only in deep blue echo chambers like DCUM where people like you even exist. Outside of those small echo chambers, people would read your post and immediately dismiss you as crazy.

Most Americans correctly view what happened to the female Penn swimmers as a travesty. And Americans like their podium moments, and understand the loss of a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Your attempt to dismiss that loss because you are upset at discovering just how far outside the mainstream you are doesn’t change the fact you are far, far in the minority (and wrong) on this issue.

The angry cope from the blue cultists in this thread is wild to see.

Here’s what I believe - this has been blown up to be a huge issue and it is not. If you voted on this issue, you are a moron.

+1

And a bigot.

I believe what happened at Penn to the female swimmers was morally, ethically, and legally wrong. I believe it was wrong across the board, deeply sexist, and an example of the endemic misogyny in our country and culture. I believe people like you are on the wrong side of history.

If that makes me a bigot, that word has lost all meaning. And also, it means that at least 95% of the country and probably 99.9% of the world are “bigots.”

Hyperfocusing on transgender athletes during an election makes you a bigot.

Voting for a POS candidate like Trump over this “issue” makes you a bigot.

Posting about it 24x7 makes you a bigot.

Insisting that it’s “misogyny” makes you a bigot.

This.

Choosing to target transgender women was a choice you made, bigots.

It's choosing to stick up for girls and women. What's so difficult about that to understand?

Shrug. I didn’t vote for Trump, and your little temper tantrum here just shows how much you are in the wrong. But do continue calling nearly the entire electorate “bigots.” I’m sure that will work out well for you.

I’m not sure about misogyny. But it definitely takes a certain kind of intense entitlement to believe that you should be allowed to compete against biological women when your physiology is male.

+1000

And for the record, I voted for Harris, Biden, and Hillary, hate Trump, and hate MAGA. But what Trump did on this issue is seize on something the Dems were completely effing up for misguided reasons and use it as a wedge to capture low information and centrist voters.

If Dems had just approached this issue with more pragmatism from the start, instead of becoming beholden to a small group of fringe activists, maybe Trump wouldn't be president now. So where some people blame the individual voters who were swayed by Trump's messaging in the issue of trans rights, I blame Democrats and the Biden administration for being so wrongheaded on an issue that like 95% of the country agrees on.

Liar. It’s not 95%. GMAFB.

Such a thoughtful, cogent, well-reasoned reply. So persuasive. Much convincing.

The left certainly displays contempt for women on this issue, and even in this thread. You can’t help yourselves. Ideology over all.

It’s true that not every parent has emotional intelligence or empathy.

Ultimately it was the years of “moaning” that helped get this important change.

Yes, a very important change for the dozens of people impacted.

And it affects even fewer transgender athletes. Can you imagine upsetting all the competition rules for 50% of the population for just a few athletes who want to change their sex?

I’m not sure what your argument is. There’s not a lot of them so let’s just ignore them? How do you feel about the separate races for kids who use wheelchairs? We can figure out fair solutions if we want to.

Yes. And it’s striking that’s who people chose to protect - not the people who were born female.
