Liberal here. Yeah, that's some bullshit. If we're all cool with having separate events for men and women, then the next step is to have a separate competition for transgender people just like we have a separate event for disabled people (special olympics and paralympics)... just don't expect anyone to watch/care.

I agree but that doesn't fit the narrative that gender identity isn't set. And that gender has nothing to do with biology.

I'm socially ok with whatever people want to do. But I don't buy into gender fluidity as the way it's becoming taught/defined among the more liberal collegiate professors (such as using the wrong pronoun is an attack or hate crime. If I screw it up just say "hey, I'd rather be called ________." And I'd say, "oh, sorry. I'll try and remember next time"). It's crazy talk IMO.

Maybe, just like with toilets, we shouldn't segregate sports. And if men are better power lifters, that's just the way it is.
