USA POWERLIFTING SUMS UP THE TRANSGENDER ATHLETE DISPUTE IN ONE PARAGRAPH

USA Powerlifting makes a pointed defense on its website against critics who say the federation’s policy of barring biological men from women’s competitions is discriminatory.

A paragraph in the “Q and A” section of its statement on transgender policy makes their line of thinking clear — sports are by definition discriminatory, and the transgender policies they are enforcing are rooted in a desire for fair play, not hate.

“While the term discrimination is used to catch the attention of the public, it is often misused,” the paragraph reads. “We are a sports organization with rules and policies. They apply to everyone to provide a level playing field.”

In this age to use common sense. The biggest problem with the elites is the total lack of common sense. Glad to see people waking up!!!

Think hard about the people who thought this crap up, and how they don't want to stop there.

Women’s “liberation” has supported the equality of women for 50 years. This is the ultimate equality.
Eliminate gender division in all levels of athletics once and for all.
No more “LPGA” or Women’s Tennis Association, women’s professional basketball or soccer. Those delineations are discriminatory towards men and neutral gender or “tweener” competitors. Athletes like Serena Williams for instance, should be competing with men anyway as her testosterone levels are clearly higher than many liberal mayors.
Give the “progressives” what they’ve been asking for for 50 years, what they deserve. Parity. Complete equality.
It will end women’s involvement in every competitive sport there is!
Watch them scream hysteria with confusion.
