Democrats pass bill to allow boys to play girl sports

It would be odd if he did that, but that isn't what he did. It was cisvestitismus and transvestitismus, used to describe a tendency to wear gender-conforming clothing or not.

Oh good! Could have sworn I saw a quote that he coined that.

Right, gender-conforming clothing or not. Two genders. Binary.

@KeithOlbermann
Can you just address the reality and move past it? You sucked at swimming. That's why you lost.
Second team all-conference. Happily for nasty, stupid, unsuccessful transphobe @Riley_Gaines_ she has no reputation to ruin

Riley's response:

That had to leave a mark,

Keith Olbermann is the poster child of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

He went from witty and unique in the sports reporting world (the This is Sportscenter with Bill Bradley is iconic.....Have you done any speaking in front of an audience? I delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention. I meant a large audience) to liberal pundit to off the deep end whackadoodle that must have sharp instruments removed from rooms he occupies.

His pure hatred for so many things is sad to watch.

(I) Male to female advantage - I just don't think that's true. I get that you said you're a scientist and just stated "yep, there are advantages," but that's not really a data-heavy analysis. A lot of what I have seen (for example: https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018...ance-including) seems to suggest there is not an unfair advantage. It seems incredibly likely that there is going to be a relatively small amount of rigorous data out there. Especially when you have conflicting standards (some states having no rules, NCAA having unclear rules, and Olympics with really specific rules), you're just not going to have great data. I get that you think that the common sense logic is that there is an advantage. I have not seen the data backing that up.

(II) Bad Training - Sure, I guess. I don't really know what that means or why it's a compelling argument, though. Yes, a biological male undergoing hormone suppression therapy would perform worse after the therapy than prior to the therapy. That is my point.

(III) Dysphoria -- Again, I'm not really sure how this is an independent argument at all. This relies fully on your first point that there is an unfair advantage. It seems to me that the only argument is that there is an unfair advantage. I am not sure I agree with that or that I have seen data to support that argument.

Any chance that 4 and half years later you have completely changed your stance on this?
