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.


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


No, they don’t. That’s just another RWNJ talking point that the “leftists” love to push.

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.


DP. Just because you have typed it out does not make it so.


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?


Because it’s choosing to “stand up up girls and women” in an unhelpful way.

Where were the bigots when it comes to women’s training facilities? Or other significant inequalities in athletics that do affect THOUSANDS of girls and women every day?

We see you for what you are.

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.


We could. But allowing transgender women to complete with women was never one of those fair solutions.

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.



Bigots suck at math.

“Nearly the entire electorate” did not hyperfocus on it or post about it 24x7.


Oh, is “bigot” the special word you reserve only for women who speak up about injustice and unfairness? Or those that identify misogyny and speak up about it? It is an honor to be called a bigot by you, in that case.

Also, pretty sure you are the one who lives your life entirely on DCUM. Otherwise you’d know just how far outside of the mainstream you are.

The tantrums from the blue cultist crazies on this thread are certainly something to see.

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.


So let the athletic organizations find a way to balance fairness and inclusion. Don’t freak TF out over a handful of athletes. Certainly don’t side with the GOP on their attacks against LGBTQ kids.

The athletic organizations have proven themselves spectacularly incapable of balancing fairness and inclusion. Your demand is nonsensical.

I’m a former D1 athlete with two competitive athletic HS daughters who have many transgender friends. I’m plenty familiar with the views of people in this space.

See, the crazy thing about voters is that you can’t stomp your feet and make them do exactly what you want simply because you want it. This is indeed a hard lesson for many on the progressive left, who never heard the word “no” growing up.

NP. It’s certainly not the biggest concern I have about women’s athletics. That doesn’t make it wrong for me to celebrate this overturn of an injustice

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.


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.


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.



Bigots suck at math.

“Nearly the entire electorate” did not hyperfocus on it or post about it 24x7.


Oh, is “bigot” the special word you reserve only for women who speak up about injustice and unfairness? Or those that identify misogyny and speak up about it? It is an honor to be called a bigot by you, in that case.

Also, pretty sure you are the one who lives your life entirely on DCUM. Otherwise you’d know just how far outside of the mainstream you are.

The tantrums from the blue cultist crazies on this thread are certainly something to see.


I’ve already explained who I consider a bigot:

I’m a former D1 athlete with two competitive athletic HS daughters who have many transgender friends. I’m plenty familiar with the views of people in this space.


Maybe you should consider therapy to deal with your own deep self-loathing and self-directed misogyny. It’s sad to see. Hopefully your daughters can break out of the cycle of vicious misogyny you are perpetuating when they grow up.

DP. Just because you have typed it out does not make it so.


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?


Because it’s choosing to “stand up up girls and women” in an unhelpful way.

Where were the bigots when it comes to women’s training facilities? Or other significant inequalities in athletics that do affect THOUSANDS of girls and women every day?

We see you for what you are.


See, the crazy thing about voters is that you can’t stomp your feet and make them do exactly what you want simply because you want it. This is indeed a hard lesson for many on the progressive left, who never heard the word “no” growing up.



Many just ignorantly listen to RWNJ propaganda. Look at the whole price of eggs thing. Voters are dumb AF.

The GOP made a calculated move to attack transgender athletes because they studied the various issues and found that it was most triggering to a certain demographic.
