Bravo! Well said. I can't imagine how hard the decision to get in the ring was for the "actual" female fighter....working tirelessly to get a chance to go to the olympics to then be faced with the choice to step out because the other person isn't the same gender or step in knowing the game is definitely not rigged in your favor. It's horrible all the way around. Cruelty is the new normal. I guess men can now hit women as a pinnacle of achievement.
A few are speaking up. One of the Irish female boxers has said she’ll refuse to fight a bloke. I think she’s the title holder. Sharron D is speaking out which surprised me as she’s commentating for the bbc in the swim pool so could have kept her head down. She’s got Barry McGuigan on board too. The consensus is athletes should withdraw all together in protest against the IOC decision. If they don’t it will just continue. I know that many of these ladies have intimidating, obsessive male coaches who push for glory come what may. The whole Olympic thing has been a debacle, maybe it was meant to be who knows these days. Where are all the women who think they’re blokes trying to get into male sports I wonder? 🤔
Yes, I used to follow Sharron on Twitter, she was ace.
That’s right the Irish one you mention is the lady Kellie Harrington whom I mentioned in the post.
For me it’s both downwards and roots up. Whilst it’s important that female athletes refuse to take part, it’s also important that girls feel empowered to say ‘no’ too.
Just a point to add. Apparently they are saying this *ahem* ‘winner’ had a condition called DSD - an intersex condition. I have added this to my post in the interest of balance/transparency. So maybe he didn’t have a penis. Some photos suggest otherwise. It has been established, however that he went through male puberty which gives a clear advantage. Had that advantage and still chose to compete - fight - a woman. Can’t help being born with that condition, Can absolutely choose not to use the physical advantage to smash a woman’s face in. This person is NOT a woman. It’s a woman hater.
Maybe we need a third category? Where would it end though?
Well said! I went on a similar rant earlier today. The world is so %#*^]{ up. The soy-boys and weak women who are supporting/enabling these cowardly, nasty, failed men, are putting women's liberation back by over a hundred years! All the brave work that women (REAL women) did in the past has been steam-rollered into the ground by these freaks and their woke enablers. What's the solution? Women (again, REAL women) should stand together to refuse to compete against biological males. Let the freaks compete against each other in their own competitions, have nothing to do with them, oh, and 'vote' with your wallets, don't financially support any organizations/individuals who supports this madness. I'm glad my mother and father didn't live to see what's going on in the so-called civilized west now. Mark
I agree. Let the trans have their own teams. Good point. They can compete against one another. It would only be fairplay then. Otherwise these sports are no longer FairPlay.
They are equal in terms of their contributions, but cannot by order of nature, have the same things. Their contributions should be respected as different but equally valid. I would say it all has its roots in economic growth. Convincing women to have the same as men served the economy above all else.
Feminism is a backlash from male dominance … Religion made us second class citizens ( obidient slaves ) Industrialization put women/ family on the back burner..
Let’s hope we can find some balance and treat each other with kindness. Soon!
No there are two SEXES. Animals don’t do gender cause they’re not susceptible to society’s brainwashing of what males and females ‘should’ do, about images. They don’t care about pink and blue and high heels. It’s all human bullshit.
Meh, I’ve had rabid feminist employees who confused equal respect with equal ability to do things. Of course that’s not true and they lied to themselves and were unhappy.
Why do I have the feeling that he neatly puts men and women in boxes based on preconceived notions from the previous century of what men's work is vs what women's work is with substantially different payscales? The remuneration for teachers and nurses is criminally low because they are traditionally women's jobs. The difficulty and importance of the work is automatically discounted.
I agree with you there. I still think that many still have trouble understanding the difference between sex and gender and the influence of damaging stereotypes.
You are talking about a complex modern social situation of last century?
I’m talking about basic differences between male and female.
You can’t possibly think that Afghanistan today reflects western society last and this century.
Humans are a product of long evolution. You can’t understand the sexes unless you understand how evolution determines what is created.
Please get a flock of chickens, say 12 hens and 3 roosters. Watch how they interact.
Then start comparing them to other species. You will find how males are used to enhance evolution.
To create a better society we first need to understand who we are. That includes males and females. You capture develop a better society with false understanding of how we evolved and , therefore, who we are.
Currently in the USA women have the most opportunities in the world but appear to be the unhappiest. Why, because they don’t know who they are and what they want.
I’m 80 years old and I’ve never met an older woman happy she never had kids, is single but was successful in business.
I’m pleased you are happy with the life you lived. We all make choices but in old age, me looking back, it appears I didn’t make choices, just did what I had to do.
I’m pleased with my life too. I got lots of bad cards I had to play but luck intervened and things turned out well.
Pleiades don’t assume any of my posts were projections of what is good for you, because I’m not you and have no clue of the cards you were dealt in life.
My posts were about how human. males and females evolved.
At the end of who we are, we must accept we are on a one way street to death’s stop sign, on a trip that appears to not mean anything and that’s the fate humans have to deal with.
I watched an interview with Eddie Hearn today on YouTube. Let's just say he disagrees with the IOC position. I understand the boxing regulatory body was against this but are no longer in control due to corruption, so the IOC is in charge. I am terrified for women's safety.
My heart goes out to them. They have a narrow window in which to compete and when this happens it is, as you say, hard to ask them to refuse. But my terror is that someone is going to get killed, all in the interests of "being kind". It's clear to me that women and girls have to look after themselves now. Society is not going to.
Yes the cult of being a ‘good little girl’ and nodding along with things is alive and well. Let’s hope what happened today shines a light on it and encourages discussion.
Consent threw in the towel. The concept became meaningless when vaccine mandates, midazolam and gender blockers rode roughshod over the NHS constitution, the Care Act and the scientific precautionary principle. People were schmoozed, seduced, shamed, mislead and belittled to the extent that NO didn’t mean No anymore.
Hear hear! I am so glad that there is at least one organized group of women and girl athletes--actual female humans--who are standing up to this takeover of women's sports by men saying they're women. I've seen ads by this group. There was one person interviewed in Matt Walsh's hilarious documentary "What Is A Woman?", who said the way we are going, there will be no more women's sports, there will only be men's sports and transgender sports. The latter being (this is me talking, not the woman in the documentary) men's b-level sports, the men who couldn't make the a-team. And women and girl athletes will be left with nowhere to compete.
I've been ranting about this for some time and here is the proof that that our society is in its death throes.
I have been advocating for real female athletes and in other situations, to refuse to be part of this vile barbarism. The Olympics is going to open many ordinary people's eyes and maybe, just maybe there is a glimmer of hope.
I cannot believe that some women in sports are staying silent and allowing these failed males steal their dreams & titles. In all sports, and life, I’d argue, this nonsense must stop.
Fantastic post , Just when I think that the sporting world and world in general couldn't repulse me any more and now Domestic abuse is made an Olympic event . I am a male athlete as in a real 1960s manufactured male and I fully support women's sport for women x
I loved this piece, Julie. I am so glad you have the backbone to speak up. I actually had to block a long time subscriber that went after me about restacking this, I tried justifying myself for sharing it—which I probably shouldn’t have done, and she still went off on me. In this crazy world, I sure am glad there are people out there like you!
Truth is everything. Once we see something amiss, i believe we have a moral duty to call it out. I wrestled with whether to post it on my Facebook. Where I live is a very liberal (can’t think of a better term, hate ‘woke’ as I think it’s divisive) town.
I knew that doing so would probably spring clean what was left of my friends list and possibly even get me a beating, but not speaking my mind was leaving me feeling worse than ever.
Conscience eats us.
However we see things, even with different points of view, I think it’s vital we don’t censor ourselves. Love to you ❤️
I’m all for free speech. Hate censorship but we also have our own personal right to keep our own individual space a healthy one. This is why blocking works. The person can say what they want but you, personally don’t have to hear it.
Wow! You’ve got more guts than I do… that said, I totally agree with you!
The bottom line is that God made males and
Females to be different ! That was God’s plan and when people mess with God’s plans bad things can happen! Including bloody messed up faces, and all the rest!
Its fucked up and the sick thing is that women are the kindest and keep enabling this to happen to their own sex. Maybe someone has to die first. Well, it’s coming unless they see it for what it is.
Bravo! Well said. I can't imagine how hard the decision to get in the ring was for the "actual" female fighter....working tirelessly to get a chance to go to the olympics to then be faced with the choice to step out because the other person isn't the same gender or step in knowing the game is definitely not rigged in your favor. It's horrible all the way around. Cruelty is the new normal. I guess men can now hit women as a pinnacle of achievement.
Exactly. You’re not telling me she faced no pressure to get in that ring. She did.
It’s misogyny gift wrapped as progress and it stinks.
lose lose situation no matter what....it's truly unreal that anyone could cheer for this
100%!

Maybe we need a third category? Where would it end though?
Why don’t they have a new category called trans?
They tried a third category before and no one turned up. The point is to beat women.
Seems like it. Just another way to relegate women to last place. Not fair. Glad people are expressing their opinions on this issue. It’s important.
Many are. We also find strength in each other. I live in a very liberal town but I don’t care. I will say my piece to the end.

Crazy times wh? Clownworld indeed!
I agree. Let the trans have their own teams. Good point. They can compete against one another. It would only be fairplay then. Otherwise these sports are no longer FairPlay.
If there is any medical speculation around someone’s biological sex then it’s a ‘no’ from me. They are not in that category.
This ⬆️🎯
This insanity has roots in feminism promoting a false concept, women are equal to men.
Women are not equal to men just as men are not equal to women.
They are inherently different, not superior or inferior, simply different.
We fail to recognize and honor this fundamental difference because the feminist movement didn’t promote women, it promoted women being like men.
They are equal in terms of their contributions, but cannot by order of nature, have the same things. Their contributions should be respected as different but equally valid. I would say it all has its roots in economic growth. Convincing women to have the same as men served the economy above all else.
They've confused equal with equivalent.
Feminism is a backlash from male dominance … Religion made us second class citizens ( obidient slaves ) Industrialization put women/ family on the back burner..
Let’s hope we can find some balance and treat each other with kindness. Soon!
Absolutely xx

You, perhaps don’t understand males.
In the animal kingdom there’s always 2 genders.
Why?
Why not have females mate and exchange DNA?
Because males speed up evolution by weeding out the weak.
The rams butt heads so the stronger gets to impregnate females.
Men kill each other to get the female prize and women are instinctively attracted to male winners.
Industrialization and Capitalism has freed the human female from male dominance.
You want evidence?
Compare USA to Afghanistan.
Human evolution is continuing in Afghanistan.
No there are two SEXES. Animals don’t do gender cause they’re not susceptible to society’s brainwashing of what males and females ‘should’ do, about images. They don’t care about pink and blue and high heels. It’s all human bullshit.
Why do the rams butt heads?
You need 2 genders. (sexes) to make evolution work.
It's too slow to have the tiger weed out the weak, although they help.
Get a flock of chickens and you will understand.
The function of male gender is to speed up evolution.
I think gender is a social construct, sex is a biological absolute. I don’t think they are interchangeable.
Meh, I’ve had rabid feminist employees who confused equal respect with equal ability to do things. Of course that’s not true and they lied to themselves and were unhappy.
I agree. They can’t.
Why do I have the feeling that he neatly puts men and women in boxes based on preconceived notions from the previous century of what men's work is vs what women's work is with substantially different payscales?

I’m 80 years old and I’ve never met an older woman happy she never had kids, is single but was successful in business.
In contrast, many old men are.
Well now you've met such a woman. But thanks for letting me know what you personally believe makes women tick. It means nothing to me though.
I’m pleased you are happy with the life you lived. We all make choices but in old age, me looking back, it appears I didn’t make choices, just did what I had to do.
I’m pleased with my life too. I got lots of bad cards I had to play but luck intervened and things turned out well.

Yes - I was watching something earlier about two rival/associated sporting bodies or something - that must be what you’re referring to.
Women have to refuse to participate but that’s a hard ask with all the pressure upon them, all the hard work they put in.
My heart goes out to them. They have a narrow window in which to compete and when this happens it is, as you say, hard to ask them to refuse. But my terror is that someone is going to get killed, all in the interests of "being kind". It's clear to me that women and girls have to look after themselves now. Society is not going to.

Utterly insane. Call me a right wing extremist, but I’m not okay with men punching women in the face for sport.
No-one should be.
And the consent thing is twisted. When is consent coercion?
We know what’s happening here.
Consent threw in the towel. The concept became meaningless when vaccine mandates, midazolam and gender blockers rode roughshod over the NHS constitution, the Care Act and the scientific precautionary principle. People were schmoozed, seduced, shamed, mislead and belittled to the extent that NO didn’t mean No anymore.
We're all far right now😉
Would seem so….😂😂

Betsy you say the truth!
Good on you feisty girl, more balls than today’s eunuch mainstream journaliarist types. Applaud you big!!
Cheers. Needs calling out.

Yes I think that’s the upside. The Olympics is shining a light on many things. About time too.
100%, Julie!
I cannot believe that some women in sports are staying silent and allowing these failed males steal their dreams & titles. In all sports, and life, I’d argue, this nonsense must stop.
Insane. They’re calling ‘intersex’ aren’t they?🙄 This person went through male puberty and was NOT a woman.
Sport brings people together.
Politics divides.
The elites are deliberately destroying sports.
The question is “who are the elites?”
They may orchestrate but ordinary people are enabling it.
Couldn't agree more. 👏👏
