    The NFL, and I believe all professional and collegiate sports should follow this model, allows anyone of any gender to play.

    When I watch high level sports, I want to see the best humans do the best under arbitrary conditions defined by the game and I want them to play the best under the same.

    I honestly don’t give a fuck what’s under their jerseys. I care about the jerseys. Repeal title IX. Colleges are already underwater. Subsidizing women’s sports with tuition is absurd. One team, multiple sports.

    Cut all the bullshit sports. No more field hockey. No more huge athletic complexes to satisfy the desire of women and men to play sports in college. Who cares what you are? If they are good enough to play the game then they can play in college. And if they are really good, they can play pro.

    The NBA has been subsidizing the WNBA at a loss for 20 years. Can we just stop? The best players play in the NBA. Everyone else can play D-leaugue. That’s egalitarian and respects everyone’s gender. If you can slap a puck past a goalie consistently, do you think I’ll really think much about your gender identity while I cheer you on?

    Fuck off with this shit.

      The main problem with that is sports would then be like 95% played by males. Almost no woman can match a man in sports where physical endurance, strength or speed is involved.
