Several female competitors dropped out of a jiu-jitsu tournament last weekend out of fear for their safety. The women were being forced to fight against transgender women. The inclusion of men in the women’s competition made the women feel scared and unsafe during the matches. The good news is that the world’s largest grappling association, the North American Grappling Association (NAGA), has been forced to change its transgender participant policy because of the backlash.
The women who were scheduled to compete last weekend say they were not warned that they would be fighting transgender women in recent matches.

It's way past time to push back. Hard. Set a few examples of what can and will happen.

There's no such thing as a "transwoman." It's a man in drag. If that man has been through male puberty, he's liable to kill a real woman in mixed martial arts contests. Maybe, just maybe this trans business is going to subside once it's called what it is: madness by freaks who shouldn't be humored in their multifarious sicknesses. It's also cheating, and is the most unchivalrous behavior possible.

If all the women drop out then it’s just men dressed up as women. It’s a level playing field again. The women can then set up - in Monty Python fashion - a “Women Who Are Not Pretending To Be Women” competition.

Looking back on decades of the imbalance created in grade schools - trying to raise the status of girls in the classroom (which was necessary) they stomped on the boys (with enthusiastic overkill). Now, girls think they're men, and boys want to be special by being girls. Young children are impressionable - a person of authority can teach them anything.

Good for them. It's way past time for someone to do that.

If this becomes universal, maybe this insanity will end.

It would be worth the disqualification/suspension for one of the females to "accidentally" land a kick or elbow in the jewels of the pretend female.

I think a new rule should be implemented. Anyone who “transgenders,” should have to prove change of chromosomes before competing in sports. . NO ONE can really transgender unless they change chromosomes. Otherwise one has really not transgendered. No amount of pills, shots or shaving will transgender a guy.
This none sense has to stop. It’s ridiculous and is making fools out of people.

#5 as got it right. I want my little grandchildren to be confident and try the things they want to do. I have 4 little girls ages 8, 9, 11 and 14. They have been in Taekwondo since they were little and just received their 1st degree Black Belts. They compete in Traditional and Extreme styles and Extreme Weapons. They've learned discipline. They're very good and are district champions in several categories. BUT...they cannot compete with males. I see artistry in their competitions. Precise moves, flips and leaps, set to music they are fun and exciting, but as far as one on one contact competition with males, even in their age groups would not be a fair fight. The girls can be aggressive but nowhere near as aggressive as the boys, not to mention the size weight difference. Does a kid have to get hurt or killed? I wonder of even that would give these trans-zealots pause?
Why push this nonsense? It is ruining sports of all kinds for everyone. I really can't understand "sportsmen" who will accept a win, trophy, medal or championship knowing they would never have won anything on an even playing field. What jokes they are.

I hate to see all the real women's years of training be wasted, but they did the right thing.

Exactly what every real woman should do when at a competition where men are masquerading as women.
Either don't show up at all or just stand there when the whistle blows.

If transgender people want to compete in sports, they deserve a League of Their Own where they can compete against others with the same physical attributes. Seems the only fair thing to do. Call it the Trust the Science, Chromosomes Matter League.

Re #14: Within the last month one sport (I forgot which) with both men's and women's divisions instituted a third for people mixed up about their sex. Not one "transathlete" showed up for competition, proving for certain that the men pretending to be women athletes--it's almost never the other way around--are to a man wusses with zero male pride who couldn't beat their fellow men in any athletic contest, so they decided to take trophies away from girls and women. They should be shipped to Malaysia and have their butts caned, sewn up, and caned again. Anything to cure them of picking on the girls.
