Girls' track and field athletes don't stand on podium next to trans athlete at Oregon state championship

I know that in our state, slots for sectionals and state meets are limited.  So if a biological male is involved, it takes the spot of a female.  There are a fixed number of entries allowed for the top qualifiers in each event.  So even if this male qualifies in the furthest north section in the state, someone in the furthest south section could be impacted because their wild card slot could be taken.  A lot of girls here their HS goal is to one day make the state meet.  It sounds like a low bar, but we had one girl who got a Division I scholarship not make it until her senior year and she was only about three slots from the last qualifier in one of her events.  Some of these meets are extremely hard to make and are decided by times, even if it's from other sections ran at different locations.  So they don't even have to be in the same area to be impacted.

I'll use one event I know about bc of my daughter's involvement.  To make the 1600m girls finals in our largest class, the qualifying time is 5:45.  Well, just because you run a 5:45 at sectionals doesn't qualify you.  Each section has so many slots (5), so if they have enough girls qualify, those girls make it.  So let's say that fifth girl runs 5:25, everyone after 5:25 until 5:45 goes into a wild card pool with similar people from all the other sections.  There are four of those statewide plus if any section fails to qualify enough runners to use all its slots that can add to the four.  I can't recall a time the state meet ever had empty slots, so 5:45 won't get you there.  So by default, anyone who qualifies knocks someone else out.

Even assuming that's the case in Oregon, there are 6 divisions. So the tranny would only be affecting the ones in that division and event.  Just saying since we're picking nits and stuff.

Oregon high school sports are organized into six classifications by the Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA). These classifications, ranging from 1A to 6A, are based on school enrollment. The OSAA has been considering potential changes to this system, including reducing the number of classifications to five, according to OregonLive.com. The classifications are: 

 

• 1A: Schools with fewer than 74 students.
• 2A: Schools with 75 to 145 students.
• 3A: Schools with 146 to 310 students.
• 4A: Schools with 311 to 607 students.
• 5A: Schools with 608 to 1004 students.
• 6A: Schools with 1005 or more students.

So your argument is you're only screwing over one classification of girls?  I'm not sure why that's alright and what you're arguing for but it's a bizarre argument to me.

I didn't make any argument other than the one I stated that since we were nitpicking the whether "all" females were affected or not, I would nitpick your nitpick. That's all - don't read anything more into it.

I wasn't really making a point, just arguing the entire silly "all" argument---since Mark felt the need to say that it might be all since it might affect athletes from other areas---I just wanted to be a smart ass and say in this one case we are talking about, it doesn't affect all the athletes.  That's it, so let's just leave it at...  Why so serious.

Gotcha.  I guess my levity/snark meter was on the fritz.   

I think the "all" argument is a bit of a stretch, but also depending on your frame of reference.  All female athletes can be impacted by males in their sports these days, but all women of childbearing age can be impacted by abortion... but all women of any age can be impacted by males in their safe spaces (bathrooms, locker rooms, etc.).

Arguing this point isn't particularly important to me, so I agree, let's carry on.

Long ago, on a discussion of abortion, I introduced the concepts of "infinity-minus" and "zero-plus," which actually came from my engineering world.  Abortion advocates are infinity-minus -- their default is that abortion is legal, but we can carve out situations where it is illegal.  I fall into the zero-plus camp, which is the opposite, because I oppose abortion for convenience.  Theoretically you could arrive at the same point with each approach, but it is unlikely, and each is a different mindset.

The point being that while I oppose abortion, I recognize that there are cases worth discussing its legality.  This approach shows empathy and a willingness to negotiate solutions in good faith.  I've had a lot of successful business negotiations with this approach.

Back to trans, I tend to fall into the zero-plus camp as well regarding the privileges of their chosen gender, to use your phrase (which I like).  Obviously, trans advocates like Squissy here are infinity-minus.  But I do it from a backdrop of recognizing the reality that some small number of people truly have gender dysphoria.  From this backdrop, we can have productive discussions with the infinity-minus folks regarding questions like:  what do we do with such people?  What is truly in their best interest?  How do we merge that into a functioning and safe society?  What about children?

I find this approach much more productive and easier to defend than a staunch "zero" stance. 

With abortion, I'm actually fine with making it legal... I just think that the woman killing her kid should have to pay for it.  It's shouldn't be on the taxpayers dime.  Her body, her choice right?  Well, her choice, her money.  Another big talking point by the left is that women struggle making this decision?  Fine, let's either call their bluff or help.  In order to get an abortion, a woman must be required to seek outpatient psychiatric care.  AGAIN, another leftist talking point is how the financial burden on society if the woman is required to keep the child is far more than paying for the abortion.  My argument is that if she's going through mental gymnastics over the decision and then dealing with it... it's far more beneficial for her to pay the couple thousands of dollars to take care of her mental health and abortion then the hundreds of thousands to raise the child.  Personally, I'm against abortion.  I don't think it should be legal.  There are plenty of people out there who want to adopt an infant.  There's people who will pay the mother for the expenses.  Some insurance companies will cover some of those expenses on behalf of the adopting parents.  There are other ways out than abortion.  But, if we're making it legal, fine... you pay for it.  You pay for the mental health help as the result.  It's WAY cheaper than paying for the kid.  Maybe... just maybe, more women will be more responsible in their decision making.

 

As for the trans issue, let them play dress up all they want (if they're an adult), as long as they don't force society to play along.  That's mainly what I mean when I say that the left should abandon their trans movement.  Stop forcing and proposing legislation that requires society to play along in their delusion.  If they TRUELY have a mental health issue, then that's fine, it can be dealt with... the thing is, those people aren't the problem.  The social contagion is the problem.  I'm willing to bet that 99% all trans people in this country are just going through a  phase or are professional victims, have far leftist activist parents, or are just fock'ed in the head.  Those with true gender dysphoria probably make up about 1% of this group.  When laws, policy, and rules are made to cater to these people, it affects all of society, but 100% of all women and all times.  Unlike abortion where it pretty much affect only certain age groups.  Yes, all women go through that age group, but it's only 15% of their life.

I do think more women are impacted by roe v wade

The trans movement, not just in sports, affects 100% of society.  It directly impacts 100% of all women, disproportionately, on a daily basis.  Abortion affects all women, though only during 15% of their lifetime... but that's potential, as the overwhelmingly vast majority of women in that age group aren't in the situation where it matters.

I would argue that even 1% is WAY too high.  It's probably more like .001%.

It seems odd to me that a person like yourself, from the party of protecting the minority and oppressed, would use the "but it's rare" argument.  As I said earlier though, regarding sports, by definition more straight/regular girls are affected by sports competition than the trans person themself, since that trans person affects the multiple people in their event, over various scopes already discussed here.

So I'm glad we can agree that trans women shouldn't be in women's sports.  

I don't actually feel strongly about the bathroom debate, and I'm not sure what the right answer is.  I was merely pointing out that taking a dump in a stall is not the concern of the opponents.  I'll also add that IMO the concern isn't as much from true gender dysphoria trans people, but rather from bad men who might take advantage of such policy.

TB’s original claim was that trans stuff should be more important to women than abortion, since trans stuff affects “every” woman.

We can argue about the #s, but wayyyy more women are going to have an abortion or unwanted pregnancy vs. be assaulted by a tranny in a public bathroom or lose a sports opportunity to one.

And unless we’re talking about being raped by a tranny, the result of abortion laws is way more impactful than sports stuff. I’d bet most women would rather lose a sports competition than have to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term.

Any way you slice it, TB’s argument is just dumb. Unfortunately you missed most of it and decided to pester me instead. That’s okay though I like you Jerry.
