    I hope some parents challenge this and take it as far as they can. She shouldn't had been allowed to wrestle due to doping.

    What is so sad about the story? The kid wanted to compete with the boys.

    Sure. Let him go out for the boy's team and if he can cut it in practice, let him compete. I'd say this with any female that wanted to do so, let alone someone who identifies as a male.

    If you feel that way you'd let a male transitioning into a female play on a woman's team?

    Yep. It's sports, let the kids play under the gender to which they identify.

    I would be against men transitioning to women allowed to compete as women. There's the rub.

    If you let women play against men you'd have to let men play against women.




    You can't have it both ways
