Dear ladies of women's professional sport. Your betters in the political Left would like to explain to you: SHUT UP BITCHEZ!!! First Martina Navratilova, now Sharron Davies.
"To protect women's sport those with a male sex advantage should not be able 2compete in women's sport."
The tweet was 'liked' more than 7,000 times in just 24 hours and she was met by support from former Olympic track winner Sally Gunnell, gold medallist boxer Nicola Adams OBE and gold middle distance athlete Dame Kelly Holmes, who commented: "Setting fair and safe markers in sport is a must."
But the comments faced fierce backlash online, with some even calling on Davies to be stripped of her MBE. Lucy Clark commented: "Well done Sharon, fuel the hate!
"No one chooses to be Transgender. You have no idea about what it is like to be TG. Shame on you! StriptheMBE."
That was the Sun UK, which reported it fairly straightforwardly. Ish.
The Independent article is interesting though. It starts with a TED talk video about trans and has numerous links and pictures promoting trans throughout the body of the text. Fanning the flames, one might say.

Davies is another liberal woman finally come to the point where she can't be dragged any further, because there is something she cares about more than politics. For her, that thing is women and women's sport. She knows, viscerally, that a third rate male can beat a first-rate female in almost any physical sport, every single time. About the only exceptions are things like car racing, shooting and certain gymnastics events where smaller size and weight are a greater advantage than muscle density.
I'm beginning to wonder not if she will be silenced by the law, but rather how long it will take them to get around to charging her.
There are at this point two or three possible end results of this farce.
First, and most likely, the top ten "female" athletes in the world will be men. That's where the gravy train is heading. People like Davies and Navratilova will be forced from public life by a barrage from the shite-flinging SJW apes, and women's sports will become men's sports. And then die, as women stop competing and men stop watching.

Second, and probably still fairly likely, the international sports committees will start feeling the quiet heat of every pissed off female on planet Earth, and create a special Trans-division where the men-in-dresses can compete with each other fairly. Which will be a cause celebre for 15 minutes of fame, and then fade away quietly because nobody actually cares. That's about the best outcome I can see, from a fairness and Humanity viewpoint. Everybody plays fair, everybody gets along, and the Market is allowed to speak.
Third, the most unlikely but probably the most fun, every female on every Olympic team in every sport refuses to compete against the men in dresses. They just down tools and walk out, leaving the IOC spluttering and shouting on the podium. That would be a thing of beauty, a blow struck for freedom and fair competition by every competitor.

Ah, but if biology is a social construct, then it's their fault for not training enough!
Historically, laws get changed when whamminz get negative impacts from existing conditions. Let's see if that still holds true when the tranz train comes to town.
Yes, biology as a social construct. Indeed, an act of speech!
I want to corner one of these pricks some day and ask him/her/it why there's no cure for cancer if biology is a social construct. Or starvation, for that matter. If wishes are horses, why don't the beggars ride?
Women still can't reliably compete at the highest level of car racing because the way they process spatial information is just slower enough than male processing to be unavoidably detrimental at those speeds found in Indy and F1.
Trans are just failed men. But women are not failed men. So trans are not women.
Just restrict womens' sports to those with XX chromosomes. So easy!
Gender dysphoria is a mental disorder.
Excellent analysis re possible outcomes.
I'm with you on #3! I'd love to see that, and the sooner the better.
How many more institutions of civilization will these people destroy?
When does it stop?
I don't think option #2 is realistic, just because numbers. There aren't enough TG competitors to fill-out a new category, and you can't hand an Olympic Gold medal to someone just because they are the only one who showed-up in their chosen sport.
I love this trend. It was one of Alinsky's rules for radicals that you make the enemy live by their rules. Take this to the logical end! Don't let them waver. Applaud the take down of Navritilova.
Women cannot compete against men in gymnastics.

Equal rights was the women’s demand. Competing with males in sports. Quotas in hiring. Special programs, scholarships, endowments in education. Special emphasis on female health. Easing of requirements for military service. Demanded and got combat status as a f’n resume’ status symbol. They’re making government socialist. When the shoe is on the other foot they whine. No sympathies, here.
My father used to race at Indy. I was visiting him there once and was watching a couple of Indy drivers playing Pacman... none of the whole pattern nonsense that we all got into
... just pure reflexes and instant decision making...it was a sight to see.
You reap what you sow. Navratilova behaved in exactly this way against Margaret Court in Australia who came out against homosexual marriage. She was all for renaming the Margaret Court tennis court and other vicious attacks on her. These SJWs never ever think that the mob wont come for them one day.
My fondest hope is that the Left will shit on white women so hard and so relentlessly that they say "screw you guys" and go back to marrying white men, bearing white children, and cutting eye-holes in white pillowcases.
White men should remorselessly mock and belittle Leftist values in front of white women to give them the message that Leftism is for losers, mental defectives, and single toothless 30-year-old hags with half-black children. Thank you, my dear tranny athletes, for making that task so much easier!
