Yeah but it's not being cancelled, the same sentiments have been expressed in at least half a dozen threads on here so far - kill it and another will pop up. The essence of the debanking issue could be distilled into a few paragraphs.

In the old days OPs would know when a thread they had started had had its day and then they would just delete it themselves. This "nothing must be cancelled!" nonsense seems a bit precious.

I thought he was advocating equal rights for all.

It's not equal when a man can win in his category and then win in the womens category, it's all for men.

One of the things highlighted by the trans arguments is that men's and women's categories in sport were a bit of a joke anyway.
Trans activists have run with that to an extreme with their word games but the original point was valid.

I don't think that's a valid reason to cancel women's rights. The activists have done so just to cause trouble and for no other reason.

In school, girls outperform boys academically. And women often outperform men in ultra-endurance sports. For example, we have the likes of Fiona Kolbinger in transcontinental cycling, and women do better than men in English Channel swimming (e.g. Alison Streeter, Chloë McCardel and Sarah Thomas).

In what way are the categories a bit of a joke?

I don't want to speak for trannies but I guess they thought that women's categories were given less attention, less credibility and less money. For a mediocre male competitor it's an ideal opportunity to show that you're way better than you really are.

Of course, the real culprits, the real c**ts in all of this are the people who decided that they should agree that a bloke with a mental problem should be allowed to compete in the women's classes. And of course, the legislators that decided that we have to pander to these sick wanker's fantasies - legally. There ya go, I'm a hate criminal. And proud of it. :thumbup:

Because in rare cases there are genetic anomolies that give women clear male traits, so much that it can become difficult to clearly define which sex the person is. People like this would often be found in the top flight of women's sport and it's been argued this is unfair to normal women.
What commonly follows are discussions and arguments about what qualifies someone to compete as a woman, trans activists take it up a notch but they didn't start it.
So when winning female athletes are decided by the most recent definition of woman I think it calls the validity of a lot of women's sport into question.

You’re right, of course, especially in the light of more recent revelations. Quite why ppl attack the man & miss the subject matter is testament to human nature at its worst imo, but this happens everywhere, on every subject matter imaginable.

Just breaking…

Klaus Schwab's WEF plan to implant CBDC's in your hand is coming to fruition. We’ll give you a universal basic income of 2,000 euros or 2,000 dollars a month if you allow us to put a microchip in your hand? That’s exactly what’s about to happen as part of the roll out of the central bank digital currencies. Klaus Scwab laid out this plan in 2016 and gets the go ahead to push it through in 2023.
