Controversies have always swirled around the Olympics: race, politics and performance-enhancing drugs. The new controversy will be interesting to watch. Can a person with XY chromosomes compete against persons with XX chromosomes? In other words, can men complete against women in women’s sports?
For a great Catholic Thing article explaining this in detail, read “‘Transjacking’ Sports” HERE.
My kudos to the Vatican for speaking out on this issue of gender-craziness in a document entitled “Male and female he created them: for a path of dialogue on the issue of gender in education.”
Quoting Section 25:
“25. The process of identifying sexual identity is made more difficult by the fictitious construct known as “gender neuter” or “third gender”, which has the effect of obscuring the fact that a person’s sex is a structural determinant of male or female identity. Efforts to go beyond the constitutive male-female sexual difference, such as the ideas of “intersex” or “transgender”, lead to a masculinity or feminity that is ambiguous, even though (in a self-contradictory way), these concepts themselves actually presuppose the very sexual difference that they propose to negate or supersede. This oscillation between male and female becomes, at the end of the day, only a ‘provocative’ display against so-called ‘traditional frameworks’, and one which, in fact, ignores the suffering of those who have to live situations of sexual indeterminacy. Similar theories aim to annihilate the concept of ‘nature’, (that is, everything we have been given as a pre-existing foundation of our being and action in the world), while at the same time implicitly reaffirming its existence.”

Of course, if you state that an xy person is male, and an xx person is female, you are branded a BIGOT. What the people who actually think that are doing is akin to telling a person who has cancer: “You’re not sick; you don’t need any treatment.”
Bill: I couldn’t agree more and I am not one to get bullied by these intolerant bullies.
To make it simple, we should just eliminate the male or female sport, just compete as one group, no division. The moto of Olympic is faster, higher, stronger, anyway!! Whoever, faster, higher, stronger will WIN. The same with the restroom, just have one kind of restroom, no male or female. No more affirmative action based on sex, all the same.
