It WAS letting a man play tennis. Geez, why even moderate what is blatantly true?

This has already happened in women’s MMA.

Fallon Fox (I know, sounds like a stripper), a male who thinks he’s a woman, beat a MMA female competitor to a pulp.

It was actually kind of amusing watching the female MMA competitors try to remain politically correct while protesting the absurdity which is male athletes competing against females.

We now know who one of the early contenders is for the “Arthur Ashe Courage Award” at next year’s ESPY Awards.

And liberals actually will argue it makes sense to say that is a picture of a woman.

I’m sure the real gals don’t care one way or the other.

Must be a male homosexual thing.

Can't admit to being a homosexual that desire men, so some cross-dress, pretending to be a female that desires men, solves that little conflict for them.

Same with Bruce Jenner.

But it's all for naught, it's the little pieces fellas.

At least Bruce said he still likes the ladies.

I wonder what Mr Ashe would say about freak show rejects getting an award named after him?

Arthur Ashe showed true courage back when it was pretty much still open season on blacks.

These mentally ill people need to be in an institution where they can get the help they need.

Kroc also served in the U.S. Marines during her lifetime.

I think it’s more of a Tirasias syndrome. You have guys in their late 40s early 50s that are getting older, and this is their perverted attempt at rebirth.

Very interesting take. what is tirasias syndrome? Sort of like getting a trophy wife for more normal males?

Got Cajones? Then I will call you Matt and not help you delude yourself. Please get some help at mental health clinic before it is too late.

1. He was hot!
2. He does NOT make an attractive woman.
3. Reinforces my theory that this mental illness is related to hormonal imbalance.

Well I call it that after Tiresias, the famous Greek prophet that was transformed into a woman by Hera.

There’s actually a book called The Man that Would Be Queen, which basically splits make transgendered into two camps: 1 ultragay men that can’t accept their own masculinity, and 2 aging males that do it to try to escape their own death through transformation.
