I can’t stand it but the only reality TV I watch is sports. If I need my fix of tang I’ll head to Lucky Chengs in NYC or hit up the “Drag Races” they do sometimes in 17th St near DuPont Circle in DC. I may take my kids to check out fire island when I eventually dump my mother’s ashes in LI since she wanted it to near at or near Jones Beach.

This was a few years ago. My wife and I went to the " Ugly Disco" dance at the Rochester Convention Center. There was a drag show on stage that was very funny and very entertaining. The folks doing the show and the folks watching the show all had a great time. Where does the evil exist in this.......WWJD?????

What are you, some kind of pedaphile groomer? Church Lady Karen Christian and her short dicked Nazis will make you see things
the right way.

You wonder why this seems so prevalent….posting to social media increases the perception. There are about 100 transgender athletes in junior and senior high schools. Anyway, whatever international standard is set would be good with me. The coverage and re-posts allows the issue to “punch above its weight”….

Why? Chances are their child will lose to someone at some point. The earlier we learn these lessons the better.

Indeed, both 2nd and 3rd place finishers were blown away badly by the #1 finisher...a "biological female"....anyone bothered by the winner being so much better???

That's baloney, Snake. Why don't we have HS pitchers pitching LL ball then, or college GKs in the cage for youth league lax?
Do we teach fair play anymore? Don't like it, think it's wrong.

I am more concerned with 16/17 year olds posing as freshmen lacrosse players in high school.

Exactly.
Someone else was born with more speed...'biologically advantaged'.
ahh well

Why? Isn't better that we teach our kids early that they're going to lose to someone eventually?

I am speaking for myself. What’s your view of lacrosse players playing down 1 to 2 years to be recruited?

How is that done, they stay back a year or two in school in order to be eligible to play at that level?

This is far more prevalent and far more impactful than “transgender” athletes tilting competition. My son was actually 27 months younger than some of his “peers”. Some kids stay back and repeat 8th grade and then do grade to grade transfer in HS. Originally 2022, playing against 2024s and looking great. You have to have the bank to make it happen though. It’s “unfair”….I am surprised I haven’t seen more complaints from those concerned with competitive balance. It’s rampant in lacrosse.

In terms of losing, yeah.
There's almost always someone, bigger, stronger, faster, more coordinated...whatever...and these are biologically, genetically, determined traits. It doesn't really matter how someone was born with these traits; they are "biological advantages".
Individuals are different and that's a fact of life.
Now, what we do with them, how well we train our minds and bodies for peak performance, how well we rise to competition pressure, these are things to celebrate as one's own efforts.
Someone who competes in a sport that is timed always has themselves as their own measure. Improve my time and I've succeeded. But someone is almost always faster if I look hard enough to find that competition. Doesn't mean I failed, indeed I could run or swim or whatever my very fastest time and "lose"...yet I've succeeded in my own effort.
And if that's not how we're looking at high school sports, we're really missing the point.
