A lot of those athletes have died now due to health complications. Yet the drugs they "doped" those athletes with? That's what they're giving to children who say they're trans.
The number of people who are gender dysphoric is very small. The number who become trans is even smaller. The number who then become trans athletes is miniscule. How have they become enabled to grab the focus away from women's athletics?
Most men who say they are women are autogynephiles and we used to call them transvestites. They now claim to be actual women. EB actually said he was female. I don’t understand why everyone isn’t up in arms about it, especially women, shows how bad the bullying is.
@@paulmasonsjazz9611 at my grandsons 6 th form he's one of the very few saying he's a straight (and white, not that he has to shout about that)boy. Loads of the girls ( including his girlfriend who is definitely female I'm assuming precautions are being taken!) are " non- binary" loads of boys similar, queer or trans. Most will grow out of it, but I'm sure these kids are swelling the numbers!
Mens sports doesnt have this issue because the men wanting to win at their sport suck against other men the only way forward for them is to compete against women.
Maybe the answer is for (real) women to unite and refuse to compete with trans athletes. It would take courage and guts, but I suspect the answer is for the other athletes to pull out en masse and make these events totally collapse till the organisers see sense and stop this nonsense
@@trevoroneill397 nope, there are women who have been standing up against this- they have faced retaliation. And it’s just not the usual harassment or bullying. It has created problems in their careers. That’s why ALL people need to stand up against this nonsense, not just women
@@user-mi8xf8tq1z Sorry, I wasn't clear. Whilst there are many women standing up to this there is also a baffling amount of women who seem to champion this lunacy.
@@trevoroneill397 yes, I agree. And it is very sad to see that so many women and young girls especially who are supporting this insanity. I can’t believe how much these young kids are indoctrinated with this ideology. And that’s saying something, given that I’m only 33) And I can see that women who supply this “female erasure” are actually the ones who have never faces gender inequality or discrimination!!! I’m a child of immigrant parents. And I have firsthand experienced gender inequality and discrimination. So nobody can actually convince me that a man, who is born male and lived till 20-30 as a man, enjoyed male privilege in early life, education, opportunities, early career etc can ever become a “woman”. Nope, sir, you can’t!! And to those who say sex is biological and gender is social- I say that even socially men can’t become women because they have not faced life as a woman and hence they don’t know what it is to be a woman in this society. Even small things like periods make life uncomfortable and take some opportunities from teen girls!! So no, men can never become women and of course males can never change their sex to female!!
Everything in life is a trade-off. As we're talking about cycling, top cyclists have to give up drinking alcohol or going out partying. If you want to achieve your transition from male to female, then you cannot compete in competitive women's sports.
Only thing that annoyed me here was Sharron making the false equivocation that it's only female athletes that are being asked to compete against male athletes, they are not asking male athletes to compete against female. 01:38 Seeming to imply that this is somehow sexist, when in fact it something that would be idiotic to suggest. Females cannot compete against males full stop, that's why no one is suggesting it!
in the US, women's swimming has now been dominated by men. All the records broken by men. I tried explaining to a wokie at work about 100m sprinting, the fastest woman record is still held by an American woman "Florence Griffith-Joyner" from the 1980s.... if the 5000th slowest man competes, he will beat that 30 year old World Record....
What's the difference between identifying as a woman and pretending to be a woman? This is word play. This is a conflation of who you really are not being your body with the limits of roles. However manifest existence is defined by polarity. It's like trying to scratch an itch with an idea; futile.
Well done to Sharron Davies for speaking up against this madness , but it won't change until REAL women boycott their own sports and our politicians put a stop to it , but that would entail growing balls !
@@olliefoxx7165 I agree , but i would have thought by now female athletes would have said , " enough is enough . " The backlash should have erupted before now . I cannot imagine how it must feel for REAL female athletes , after years of training and devotion to their particular sport , having their achievements stolen by some utterly selfish male pretending to be a woman . It's disgusting !
@@namesake-mx9nl Women have been told all their lives they're strong and brave. They've been shown on the media as never needing a man and they can do anything by themselves. Yet, when it comes time to stand up for actual women and girls they're silent bc of peer pressure. This is proof that women will only speak out when it's safe to do so. They'll claim victory after men fix things but they won't do it themselves. They are creatures of groupthink and peer pressure.
@@namesake-mx9nl I agree. Just don't wait on women to do it. Men have to continue fighting for our females. They may be to scared to say it out loud but they can support those who do speak out.
Woman athlete’s stand together and boycott any of these nonsense events Let them race alone See how long it continues Let the organisers get your message by actions
They need their own special catagory, emphasis on special. It would be fun, there could be people who identify as crabs running side ways for example. Or running backwards.
The trans activism “movement” is all about misdirection. And whenever their misdirection is exposed for what it is through reasoned argument such as Sharron Davies’s in this video they then immediately switch tack to ad hominem “you are transphobic!!” and demand you be “cancelled” for bigotry. And, shamefully, MSM not only allow trans activists to do this (usually with no proper challenge), their production teams and presenters seem to delight in providing a platform for trans activists’ anti-women agenda. The trans “rights” activists are effectively demanding that elite women sports athletes must surrender THEIR rights to competition fairness. But the liberal left are in a total buggersmuddle over this because, at the same time, they’re insisting women don’t exist anyway by refusing to accept any common sense definition of “woman”. So why not just be done with it, sweep aside the whole gender divide across all sports so everyone must compete against each other, and see how the trans lobby like that!
The fact that this issue has to be argued shows that there is something basically wrong with men that they would be willing to commit such a violation of fairness. That they have the gall to say that they identify with women is beyond contemptible. Women don't go around violating other peoples' boundaries. In fact, their problem is that they have such weak boundaries themselves that they are more likely to be the ones violated. Case in point.
@@ron88303 exactly what I was going to say, don't tar us all with the same brush, I think it's totally unfair and don't agree with it, it's nothing short of cowardice in my opinion. Also I see SOME biological women who still identify as women taking steroids that put me to absolute shame with the weights they can lift.
Please don't lump all men in the same barrel, this is also another issue all men get labled the same. On the issue being discussed common sence should be used and this person needs to be informed of that you were a man you race against men it's that simple, if you don't like it dont race..
What a ridiculous situation, man competing with women identifying as women! Who ever allowed this madness to begin with? Breaking world records that have stood for years ! Its so disrespectful to women they train hard and work hard eat right total discipline to be the best in there field! Only to be facing men, the goal post have been moved so much there not even in the stadium anymore ✌
The sooner we stop excepting their delusions like calling them by female a name or her she, miss the sooner we can go back to normality and these people will live a life they want buy without the drama.
Actually, no. Misgendering has always been a " must do " for people who want to hate on Transgender people. The normality you speak of, is hate, discrimination and violence, sanctioned by authority.
It's nothing to do with fairness. These trans-activists all know about fairness. That's why they shout like banshees when they think trans-women are being treated unfairly by not being accepted when they enter women's sports. It's simply about destroying the norms. Fairness is nothing to do with that as far as the trans-activists are concerned. This is why the trans-activists rallied around the group of women giving speeches at Manchester's suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst statue. The trans-activists are not interested in rights for women. That 'norm', what there is of it, is now being destroyed by trans-activists and they are being allowed to do this by the public and the authorities.
Make the men's category open to all & leave women's sports for women, as intended. It's not just the competing though, there are issues around biologically intact males strutting around changing rooms naked, making women feel intimidated & uncomfortable. As some girls on the same team as WilLIAm Thomas said "it's very clear that he still likes girls".
There aren't enough of them to have thier own event. Despite what the msn and Labour MPs like to tell us, Trans people represent something like .7% of the population. So an entire event would probably be about 5 people total. Moreover that sort of event would be a level playing field so these cheats would have no invective to enact such a thing. They are pretty vocal about everything else, so why aren't they shouting for thier own category? From what I've seen the entire contention is around sub-par male athletes going into the women's game and stealing all the medals. Cheating. It's misogynistic to even countenance this imo. The athletic boards concerned should be ashamed at letting this happen to female competitors.
@@arthurmackrell8154 the 0.7% figure probably includes those that would have been considered transvestites in old money. Putting on a frock transforms you magically to womanhood nowadays. So you're probably right.
What if every cyclist registered for the race dropped out in protest, thereby removing the opportunity for the male cyclist to promote himself in the news.?
I noted that there were a dearth of female to male trans athletes.Strange really Male to female trans athletes,we hear a lot about them and they do seem to do rather well against biological women.Go figure
We should be outraged. When nothing makes sense, I want to know why it doesn't make sense. I am ALWAYS up for debate/ conversation, but it needs to be realistic, reality and make sense. Just needs to make sense. When did biology change? As a biology major, when did biology change? Confused here!
Kathy Smallwood is one of our greatest athletes in U.K. had it not been for the drugged up Russians and West Germans she would have won more gold medals.
I think you mean "East-Germans"? But yeah, these times were rather embarrassing. The entire world knew they had 'special' programmes for their female athletes, and the official organizations did zip about it.
I went to the doctor, and told him i want to identify as a pair of curtains...................He told me to pull myself together.What could he mean one wonders.
Stop apologizing and saying it isn't about hating trans people. It shows your fear of these people. I do hate that men are impersonating women. It's insulting and gross. They think their sexual fantasy defines what a woman is.
Testosterone was never the qualifier for womens sport. We didnt create a sports category because we observed that half tha population has 1/10th of the testosterone as others. This was never why we created womens leagues. The necessity comes from reproductive differences, and the effect it has on a womans body. Lower testosterone is ONE of those effects. But its not why we created womens sport. Testosterone was never the qualifier!
Look at Lauren Jeska, the British Champ that won all the ladies fell races 2010 to 2014. When it was discovered that she was a he UK Athletics asked her to provide blood tests to show her testorone levels. Men have a higher VO2 max where women cannot compete against them. There used to be a Barrs Body Test that now seems to be forgotten. Jeska decided to go to London and stabbed Ralph Knibbs (ex pro rugby) at UK athletics hq. She stabbed him in the head and neck and he is now disabled, she also injured two of his colleagues that tried to help him. She is now serving 18 years for attempted murder
@@admiralbillom7559 wow... I didn't know that. I used to run against her/he... totally unfair as men have a vo2 max much higher than women. Luckily she was stripped of all her/his titles
@@anthonymarsh880 the relevance is transgender women have been competing and winning women's races for a long time. It is not fair... we are built differently and when you have worked hard for years to be at the top of your game its disheartening
@@caroldixon3124 What is the relevance of this person's criminal record? The thread is about Emily Bridges. I will also point out that Emily has not been competing against women and has been barred from doing so. I dispute your claim that trans people have been competing against women for years. I do not support the idea of biological men competing against women but I won't join in hysterical, inaccurate allegations.
The selfish narcissism of this individual is incredible...he would happily cheat and ruin woman's sport for his own utterly selfish "look at me" agenda. What a noble sportsman. He should be ashamed, but he's so wrapped up in his own tiny little world he won't see the truth.
He’d refuse of course he would! Debates have been arranged several times and the men-who-pretend-to-be-women always bottle out at the last minute as there are no arguments that anyone can change sex.
Sharon, why aren't those East German medals discussed now retroactively rescinded and handed to the athletes who finished behind them, now that it is proven? Never too late for the IOC to act on that, I'd have thought...
Trans this trans that, people can’t decide who or what they are. Men ‘identifying’ as women wanting to compete in women’s sport is rubbish, it means they can’t make it as a man, give us all a break
I think the time has come to split competitive sport into three categories. Biological Male, Biological Female and others (that don't consider themselves to fit in to the first two categories). I think there would be genuine interest as to how those in the third category compete and produce results compared to the other two categories. I would be amazed, if such a system existed, that you didn't find the standards in the third category fell somewhere between the first and second categories. This is probably because there seems to be a disproportionate number of biological males that are wanting to transition to females and compete at a serious level (elite) rather than the other way round, all of whom cannot reach the standard required for success in their original category. That way all athletes/swimmers/sports competitors relying on their physicality for success would be catered for. I agree 100% with the sentiments of Sharron Davies and it is gobsmacking that the problem does not get sensible consideration for fear of causing "offence". How about the "offence" caused to people by the inclusion of those who identify as something other than their biological sex competing in the wrong category. (I do not consider myself to be rightwing by any stretch of the imagination, but this is purely a matter of common sense)
The problem here is that with these three categories you're losing all the categories for children. At the moment in football you'll have 'under7s', 'under8s' etc even competitive, but your three categories would put them in with adults. In tennis you'd lose mixed doubles which would be a shame because people like that. In boxing they have categories for different weights so with your three categories you'd be putting flyweights in with heavyweights so the lighter competitors couldn't play. There are also competitive sports categories for disabled athletes and with your three categories you'd put disabled athletes together with able-bodied. So I think that there would need to be more than three categories even though it's a good idea you've suggested in principle, it might be too simplistic not to cater for everyone who wants to play competitive sports.
@@vladimirimp fair enough, apart from the bit about under 7s or under 8s as this issue should not arise until adulthood kicks in and at 18 the person in question can officially transition. Mixed doubles would need to be a pairing of trans male with trans female so no problem there (apart from the fact it seems to be mainly biological males that seen to desire to Tranition and compete at a high level where their physicality is advantageous). Boxing is more complicated, but it would still be size related in their category. I suppose the numbers of likely athletes pursuing trans gender boxing will be small (so why have it at all?) but there is definitely no place for a trans female within the biological female category due to the physiological advantage they would have. Mike Tyson in his prime, if he became trans female would not have lost his physical advantage over a biological female in the same weight category as himself. Perhaps it is sadly one of the consequences of transitioning into the opposite sex that sacrificing a potential sporting career would be necessary. After all, it is a personal choice, so all the consequences need to be considered. It should not be up to sport to accommodate people that have opted away from the requirements of participation.
@@mickbrave8351 Ah, I wasn't talking about trans, just kids. I thought your suggestion of having three categories for all sports 'Biological Male' for instance would be - male kids, male adults, male flyweights, male, heavyweights, male seniors - all lumped together. And hence mixed doubles I just meant your three categories would mean we couldn't have a biological male and biological female pair any more. Because it's just three categories for all competitive sport.
@@vladimirimp No. keep sport as it currently is, with a new third section that caters for anyone fitting into the trans category (disabled included if necessary). Some sports or professional games such as darts or snooker probably wouldn’t be affected as much because the physiology is probably less significant. But as a rule, if the numbers are significant enough, have a trans category to cater for anyone who classifies themselves so.
I think I should point out that, when a body is on the slab at the Morgue, the pathologist will put a label on it that says, Male, or female. A pathologist knows all about biology. He/she wouldn't be fooled. There'e no such thing as Trans anything.
Forgive me, please. I would be amazed if someone hasn't said this before. Why not a FIXED RULE that separates athletes by chromosomes; no pronouns, men, women, etc, two basic catagories for competing in sport. Is this too easy? rr Normandy, France
....(hit key too early,) one group XX and the other XY; they can grow their hair as they like, wear tatoos, beards, grow long fingernails, spit and(optional) swear but would only fit in ONE CATAGORY OR THE OTHER. If no one has suggested this I would liked to be knighted....Thank you very much....rr
@@rick91443 There are exceptions, very, very rare exceptions, to the XX XY thing, but that's splitting hairs because Emily is not one of those people, he's clearly and undeniably MALE and should go back to competinng against other males.
The only way to sort all this out and make things fair is by adding another category to all events, male events, female events, Trans events, I don't think they will do that because the Trans won't have an advantage.

@@paulmasonsjazz9611 at my grandsons 6 th form he's one of the very few saying he's a straight (and white, not that he has to shout about that)boy. Loads of the girls ( including his girlfriend who is definitely female I'm assuming precautions are being taken!) are " non- binary" loads of boys similar, queer or trans. Most will grow out of it, but I'm sure these kids are swelling the numbers!
@@alisonwren3624 I believe none of them can do anything legally until they are 18! Who is feeding them all this stuff - surely it should be stopped??
They should be banned from woman's sports. Men's sports, fine.
Mens sports doesnt have this issue because the men wanting to win at their sport suck against other men the only way forward for them is to compete against women.
Man race with men, not woman,
This should not even be open for discussion. Biological sex = women not trans sport.
I used to be a motorcyclist but I have come to understand that I'm actually a CYCLIST. Wish me luck in the Tour de France!
Ha-ha 👍
There's a UA-cam video, search 'Motorcyclist Who Identifies As Bicyclist Sets Cycling World Record' 🤣
You would be better off on a moped
We need to all stop promoting lies and face the truth. There is no such thing as trasgender. We are all assigned sex as born.
Completely agree! Attention seeking weirdos.
Even the notion of assigned is ridiculous. This isnt Harry Potter Hogwarts with the sorting hat
Sex is observed.
@@K_F_P it can even be observed before birth via an ultrasound! Reality is so magical.
@@apebass2215 Ultrasounds are transphobic. 😂
Sharron Davis refused to use the "she" pronoun for Emily Bridges and just used his name throughout the interview.
Exactly.
Maybe the answer is for (real) women to unite and refuse to compete with trans athletes. It would take courage and guts, but I suspect the answer is for the other athletes to pull out en masse and make these events totally collapse till the organisers see sense and stop this nonsense
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏bravo!!!!! Stand up for women and lets stop these people appropriating biological women.
Not biological women just woman or womanhood.
There is only 1 type of woman
Woman need to start standing up for themselves. In my experience women feel the urge to virtue signal their ally status. They need to wake up.
@@trevoroneill397 nope, there are women who have been standing up against this- they have faced retaliation. And it’s just not the usual harassment or bullying. It has created problems in their careers.
That’s why ALL people need to stand up against this nonsense, not just women
@@user-mi8xf8tq1z Sorry, I wasn't clear. Whilst there are many women standing up to this there is also a baffling amount of women who seem to champion this lunacy.
@@trevoroneill397 yes, I agree. And it is very sad to see that so many women and young girls especially who are supporting this insanity. I can’t believe how much these young kids are indoctrinated with this ideology. And that’s saying something, given that I’m only 33)
And I can see that women who supply this “female erasure” are actually the ones who have never faces gender inequality or discrimination!!! I’m a child of immigrant parents. And I have firsthand experienced gender inequality and discrimination. So nobody can actually convince me that a man, who is born male and lived till 20-30 as a man, enjoyed male privilege in early life, education, opportunities, early career etc can ever become a “woman”.
Nope, sir, you can’t!! And to those who say sex is biological and gender is social- I say that even socially men can’t become women because they have not faced life as a woman and hence they don’t know what it is to be a woman in this society. Even small things like periods make life uncomfortable and take some opportunities from teen girls!!
So no, men can never become women and of course males can never change their sex to female!!
You can transition if you feel that's you path in life but you cannot be an athelete, unless it's against other trans people. That was quite easy.
Everything in life is a trade-off. As we're talking about cycling, top cyclists have to give up drinking alcohol or going out partying. If you want to achieve your transition from male to female, then you cannot compete in competitive women's sports.
Since when did reality become a crime?
Only thing that annoyed me here was Sharron making the false equivocation that it's only female athletes that are being asked to compete against male athletes, they are not asking male athletes to compete against female. 01:38 Seeming to imply that this is somehow sexist, when in fact it something that would be idiotic to suggest. Females cannot compete against males full stop, that's why no one is suggesting it!
in the US, women's swimming has now been dominated by men. All the records broken by men.
I tried explaining to a wokie at work about 100m sprinting, the fastest woman record is still held by an American woman "Florence Griffith-Joyner" from the 1980s.... if the 5000th slowest man competes, he will beat that 30 year old World Record....
Sharon Davies, what a star, from my youth, cheered her on so many times,, great to see her so outspoken on this subject.
What's the difference between identifying as a woman and pretending to be a woman? This is word play. This is a conflation of who you really are not being your body with the limits of roles. However manifest existence is defined by polarity. It's like trying to scratch an itch with an idea; futile.
Well done to Sharron Davies for speaking up against this madness , but it won't change until REAL women boycott their own sports and our politicians put a stop to it , but that would entail growing balls !
Women are natural followers despite what some try to say. They simply won't do it on their own.
@@olliefoxx7165 I agree , but i would have thought by now female athletes would have said , " enough is enough . " The backlash should have erupted before now . I cannot imagine how it must feel for REAL female athletes , after years of training and devotion to their particular sport , having their achievements stolen by some utterly selfish male pretending to be a woman . It's disgusting !
@@namesake-mx9nl Women have been told all their lives they're strong and brave. They've been shown on the media as never needing a man and they can do anything by themselves. Yet, when it comes time to stand up for actual women and girls they're silent bc of peer pressure. This is proof that women will only speak out when it's safe to do so. They'll claim victory after men fix things but they won't do it themselves. They are creatures of groupthink and peer pressure.
@@olliefoxx7165 For the sake of womens and girls sport , something has to change .
@@namesake-mx9nl I agree. Just don't wait on women to do it. Men have to continue fighting for our females. They may be to scared to say it out loud but they can support those who do speak out.
Women need to stand up against this and so do men.
Woman athlete’s stand together and boycott any of these nonsense events
Let them race alone
See how long it continues
Let the organisers get your message by actions
They need their own special catagory, emphasis on special. It would be fun, there could be people who identify as crabs running side ways for example. Or running backwards.
nope, no special cat, best option is Women (bio) and everyone else.
think about it
🤣🤣

Or Bishops only moving diagonally!🤗
The trans activism “movement” is all about misdirection. And whenever their misdirection is exposed for what it is through reasoned argument such as Sharron Davies’s in this video they then immediately switch tack to ad hominem “you are transphobic!!” and demand you be “cancelled” for bigotry. And, shamefully, MSM not only allow trans activists to do this (usually with no proper challenge), their production teams and presenters seem to delight in providing a platform for trans activists’ anti-women agenda.
The trans “rights” activists are effectively demanding that elite women sports athletes must surrender THEIR rights to competition fairness.
But the liberal left are in a total buggersmuddle over this because, at the same time, they’re insisting women don’t exist anyway by refusing to accept any common sense definition of “woman”.
So why not just be done with it, sweep aside the whole gender divide across all sports so everyone must compete against each other, and see how the trans lobby like that!
Only women bleed transwomen don't.
Sharon is well researched and is speaking sense - let her speak
"We are made to give birth " omg imagine the outrage that will cause.
Biological facts upset the leftist woke activists
The fact that this issue has to be argued shows that there is something basically wrong with men that they would be willing to commit such a violation of fairness. That they have the gall to say that they identify with women is beyond contemptible. Women don't go around violating other peoples' boundaries. In fact, their problem is that they have such weak boundaries themselves that they are more likely to be the ones violated. Case in point.
@@ron88303 exactly what I was going to say, don't tar us all with the same brush, I think it's totally unfair and don't agree with it, it's nothing short of cowardice in my opinion. Also I see SOME biological women who still identify as women taking steroids that put me to absolute shame with the weights they can lift.
Haha did you go to the same gym as fallon fox?? 😂😂✌️
Well said it’s called lunacy , lock them away keep the kids safe
@@ron88303 she’s talking about men that would do that not all obviously. Most men wouldn’t dream of it.
Please don't lump all men in the same barrel, this is also another issue all men get labled the same. On the issue being discussed common sence should be used and this person needs to be informed of that you were a man you race against men it's that simple, if you don't like it dont race..
These men are laughing up their sleeves at everybody
dragonfly, they are laughing up their frilly knickers! 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
@June 😂😂
What a ridiculous situation, man competing with women identifying as women! Who ever allowed this madness to begin with? Breaking world records that have stood for years ! Its so disrespectful to women they train hard and work hard eat right total discipline to be the best in there field! Only to be facing men, the goal post have been moved so much there not even in the stadium anymore ✌
Misleading thumbnail. It makes it look like she confronts her directly when she doesn't.
Well, he is a transvestite then NOT a transwomen! HE is a MAN so should compete against men. Geez, what is this country coming to....?
But his dress would get caught in the spokes.
The sooner we stop excepting their delusions like calling them by female a name or her she, miss the sooner we can go back to normality and these people will live a life they want buy without the drama.
Actually, no. Misgendering has always been a " must do " for people who want to hate on Transgender people. The normality you speak of, is hate, discrimination and violence, sanctioned by authority.
Silver is the new gold when a man is in the race .
HE is a cheat.
No need for research - boys go there, girls go there. That's the way we all like it.
Cant wait for Mike Tyson to come out of retirement and fight in women's boxing as a trans women
It's nothing to do with fairness. These trans-activists all know about fairness. That's why they shout like banshees when they think trans-women are being treated unfairly by not being accepted when they enter women's sports. It's simply about destroying the norms. Fairness is nothing to do with that as far as the trans-activists are concerned. This is why the trans-activists rallied around the group of women giving speeches at Manchester's suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst statue. The trans-activists are not interested in rights for women. That 'norm', what there is of it, is now being destroyed by trans-activists and they are being allowed to do this by the public and the authorities.
He only wants to 'compete' against people he can beat!!!!
Emily Bridges is going to destroy woman’s cycling,that’s “always been the plan” shims a cheat.
Absolutely bang on the guys a cheat
HE is not and never will be a woman only in his own unbalanced mind, don't try to drag other people into your crazy world 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
Make the men's category open to all & leave women's sports for women, as intended. It's not just the competing though, there are issues around biologically intact males strutting around changing rooms naked, making women feel intimidated & uncomfortable. As some girls on the same team as WilLIAm Thomas said "it's very clear that he still likes girls".
Now another man who failed in sport so now he’ll grow his hair and compete against woman. Woman should refuse to cycle against this MAN
He's a bloke .... End of chat !
If these men weren't faster or stronger than women they wouldn't want to compete against them.
There aren't enough of them to have thier own event. Despite what the msn and Labour MPs like to tell us, Trans people represent something like .7% of the population. So an entire event would probably be about 5 people total. Moreover that sort of event would be a level playing field so these cheats would have no invective to enact such a thing. They are pretty vocal about everything else, so why aren't they shouting for thier own category? From what I've seen the entire contention is around sub-par male athletes going into the women's game and stealing all the medals. Cheating. It's misogynistic to even countenance this imo. The athletic boards concerned should be ashamed at letting this happen to female competitors.
Very true. However I would think 0.0007% is closer to the truth, not 0.7%
@@arthurmackrell8154 the 0.7% figure probably includes those that would have been considered transvestites in old money. Putting on a frock transforms you magically to womanhood nowadays. So you're probably right.
there is nothing misogynistic about this . its just cheating
women need to boycott any event when a trans turns up
What if every cyclist registered for the race dropped out in protest, thereby removing the opportunity for the male cyclist to promote himself in the news.?
Neither male nor female, but the worst of both, when it comes to sports.
Its not a sport if the finish is predetermined. That's a scam.
What next,someone with a missing finger competing in the disabled games.
😂😂😂😂😂 that got me
Womens sport is not a place for failed male athletes.
I noted that there were a dearth of female to male trans athletes.Strange really
Male to female trans athletes,we hear a lot about them and they do seem to do rather well against biological women.Go figure
Spot on.
Nothing to discuss here . It is all NONSENSE. Grow up kids.
We should be outraged. When nothing makes sense, I want to know why it doesn't make sense. I am ALWAYS up for debate/ conversation, but it needs to be realistic, reality and make sense. Just needs to make sense. When did biology change? As a biology major, when did biology change? Confused here!
Sadly there's no sense to made here Carol.
Maybe you could ask someone in the Labour party seeing as none of them know what a woman is..
I'm not a biologist - so don't ask me!! 🤣🤣🤣
'Emily Bridges' was heard to say "Its a real kick in the balls to receive all this abuse"
Kathy Smallwood is one of our greatest athletes in U.K. had it not been for the drugged up Russians and West Germans she would have won more gold medals.
I think you mean "East-Germans"? But yeah, these times were rather embarrassing. The entire world knew they had 'special' programmes for their female athletes, and the official organizations did zip about it.
Disrespectful to women's sport.
It's a woke and idiotic non-question - so I won't bother with it. For me, a bloke is a bloke and a woman is a woman; Simples. Go Julia and Sharron.
I am a trans woman and am in total agreement with Sharon and Julia.
It’s not a case of *not asking* for any “special treatment”, it’s a case of - by default - ALREADY HAVING “special treatment”.
I’m so glad Sharron Davies has had the courage to stand up for women.
I went to the doctor, and told him i want to identify as a pair of curtains...................He told me to pull myself together.What could he mean one wonders.
👍👏👏👏
Tommy Cooper will be turning in his grave 😉😉
Stop apologizing and saying it isn't about hating trans people. It shows your fear of these people. I do hate that men are impersonating women. It's insulting and gross. They think their sexual fantasy defines what a woman is.
I find it insulting, too. It's as if they are mocking women.
If you want to talk about differences, talk about chromosomes, not testosterone.
Testosterone was never the qualifier for womens sport.
We didnt create a sports category because we observed that half tha population has 1/10th of the testosterone as others. This was never why we created womens leagues.
The necessity comes from reproductive differences, and the effect it has on a womans body.
Lower testosterone is ONE of those effects. But its not why we created womens sport.
Testosterone was never the qualifier!
Look at Lauren Jeska, the British Champ that won all the ladies fell races 2010 to 2014. When it was discovered that she was a he UK Athletics asked her to provide blood tests to show her testorone levels. Men have a higher VO2 max where women cannot compete against them. There used to be a Barrs Body Test that now seems to be forgotten. Jeska decided to go to London and stabbed Ralph Knibbs (ex pro rugby) at UK athletics hq. She stabbed him in the head and neck and he is now disabled, she also injured two of his colleagues that tried to help him. She is now serving 18 years for attempted murder
serving in a women's prison.
I don't understand the relevance of this comment. Is there some connection to Emily Bridges ?
@@admiralbillom7559 wow... I didn't know that. I used to run against her/he... totally unfair as men have a vo2 max much higher than women. Luckily she was stripped of all her/his titles
@@anthonymarsh880 the relevance is transgender women have been competing and winning women's races for a long time. It is not fair... we are built differently and when you have worked hard for years to be at the top of your game its disheartening
@@caroldixon3124 What is the relevance of this person's criminal record? The thread is about Emily Bridges. I will also point out that Emily has not been competing against women and has been barred from doing so. I dispute your claim that trans people have been competing against women for years. I do not support the idea of biological men competing against women but I won't join in hysterical, inaccurate allegations.
JHB.Please let the guest speak. Please. Interview, not chat so we can benefit from their knowledge.
What a load of bollocks
Sometimes literally.
The selfish narcissism of this individual is incredible...he would happily cheat and ruin woman's sport for his own utterly selfish "look at me" agenda. What a noble sportsman. He should be ashamed, but he's so wrapped up in his own tiny little world he won't see the truth.
It would be great to have Emily and Sharon on together for a debate. Good job Julia.
He’d refuse of course he would! Debates have been arranged several times and the men-who-pretend-to-be-women always bottle out at the last minute as there are no arguments that anyone can change sex.
Sharon, why aren't those East German medals discussed now retroactively rescinded and handed to the athletes who finished behind them, now that it is proven? Never too late for the IOC to act on that, I'd have thought...
Tell him to get on her bike.
Trans this trans that, people can’t decide who or what they are. Men ‘identifying’ as women wanting to compete in women’s sport is rubbish, it means they can’t make it as a man, give us all a break
I think the time has come to split competitive sport into three categories. Biological Male, Biological Female and others (that don't consider themselves to fit in to the first two categories). I think there would be genuine interest as to how those in the third category compete and produce results compared to the other two categories. I would be amazed, if such a system existed, that you didn't find the standards in the third category fell somewhere between the first and second categories. This is probably because there seems to be a disproportionate number of biological males that are wanting to transition to females and compete at a serious level (elite) rather than the other way round, all of whom cannot reach the standard required for success in their original category. That way all athletes/swimmers/sports competitors relying on their physicality for success would be catered for. I agree 100% with the sentiments of Sharron Davies and it is gobsmacking that the problem does not get sensible consideration for fear of causing "offence". How about the "offence" caused to people by the inclusion of those who identify as something other than their biological sex competing in the wrong category. (I do not consider myself to be rightwing by any stretch of the imagination, but this is purely a matter of common sense)
The problem here is that with these three categories you're losing all the categories for children. At the moment in football you'll have 'under7s', 'under8s' etc even competitive, but your three categories would put them in with adults. In tennis you'd lose mixed doubles which would be a shame because people like that. In boxing they have categories for different weights so with your three categories you'd be putting flyweights in with heavyweights so the lighter competitors couldn't play. There are also competitive sports categories for disabled athletes and with your three categories you'd put disabled athletes together with able-bodied. So I think that there would need to be more than three categories even though it's a good idea you've suggested in principle, it might be too simplistic not to cater for everyone who wants to play competitive sports.
@@vladimirimp fair enough, apart from the bit about under 7s or under 8s as this issue should not arise until adulthood kicks in and at 18 the person in question can officially transition. Mixed doubles would need to be a pairing of trans male with trans female so no problem there (apart from the fact it seems to be mainly biological males that seen to desire to Tranition and compete at a high level where their physicality is advantageous). Boxing is more complicated, but it would still be size related in their category. I suppose the numbers of likely athletes pursuing trans gender boxing will be small (so why have it at all?) but there is definitely no place for a trans female within the biological female category due to the physiological advantage they would have. Mike Tyson in his prime, if he became trans female would not have lost his physical advantage over a biological female in the same weight category as himself. Perhaps it is sadly one of the consequences of transitioning into the opposite sex that sacrificing a potential sporting career would be necessary. After all, it is a personal choice, so all the consequences need to be considered. It should not be up to sport to accommodate people that have opted away from the requirements of participation.
@@mickbrave8351 Ah, I wasn't talking about trans, just kids. I thought your suggestion of having three categories for all sports 'Biological Male' for instance would be - male kids, male adults, male flyweights, male, heavyweights, male seniors - all lumped together. And hence mixed doubles I just meant your three categories would mean we couldn't have a biological male and biological female pair any more. Because it's just three categories for all competitive sport.
@@vladimirimp No. keep sport as it currently is, with a new third section that caters for anyone fitting into the trans category (disabled included if necessary). Some sports or professional games such as darts or snooker probably wouldn’t be affected as much because the physiology is probably less significant. But as a rule, if the numbers are significant enough, have a trans category to cater for anyone who classifies themselves so.
The transmen would then say it was unfair for them to compete against transmen.
shouldn't be allowed ever
I've been 'trans' for 50+ years. What we have here is a case of mass neurosis and hysteria. And I was once part of it.
Yes, the hysteria has always been part of Transphobic hatred.
Julia, please stop talking over Sharon!!
Should male cyclist Emily Bridges be able to compete in women's cycling? - Fixed it for you.
I think I should point out that, when a body is on the slab at the Morgue, the pathologist will put a label on it that says, Male, or female. A pathologist knows all about biology. He/she wouldn't be fooled. There'e no such thing as Trans anything.
Forgive me, please. I would be amazed if someone hasn't said this before. Why not a FIXED RULE that separates athletes by chromosomes; no pronouns, men, women, etc, two basic catagories for competing in sport. Is this too easy? rr Normandy, France
....(hit key too early,) one group XX and the other XY; they can grow their hair as they like, wear tatoos, beards, grow long fingernails, spit and(optional) swear but would only fit in ONE CATAGORY OR THE OTHER. If no one has suggested this I would liked to be knighted....Thank you very much....rr
@@rick91443 There are exceptions, very, very rare exceptions, to the XX XY thing, but that's splitting hairs because Emily is not one of those people, he's clearly and undeniably MALE and should go back to competinng against other males.
@@ruthohare9840 My point exactly...
A cyclist with two helmets... is that really fair?
😂😂
Stop calling him a she
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Only way to stop this happening is for the real women to not start a race just walk off the track
Where to we stop....men or women identifying as children
Lots of men identify as babies. It’s a sexual fetish. But at least they’re not cheating at sport….
Sharon is 100%correct
He is a man dressed as a woman.
Trans, trans, trans. I’m sick of it. Do what you want with your life but you should not be able to compete against women.
The only way to sort all this out and make things fair is by adding another category to all events, male events, female events, Trans events, I don't think they will do that because the Trans won't have an advantage.
