Quote from: Cartierfor3 on October 15, 2023, 01:25:15 PMThe last couple pages are a great example of why I can't pit. No one is actually debating or stating a position. Good grief you guys are obsessed with Dax.Feel free to leave, then. But thanks for stopping by. With Wacky gone, the pit is almost exclusively for dax arguing incoherently with like every other poster (although I have him on ignore and try not to directly engage with him).

Trumpers keeping their eye on important issues. Explains their success at the polls and not at all getting humiliated at midterms

Brilliant analysis BACYou're in full blown deflectocon mode Just for my own Dacian edification…is deflectocon a play on decepticon like from Transformers or is it con as in convention like a convention of deflectos?

Has any trans cyclist attempted to compete on the elite level and been turned down? It’s a fringe sport so you shouldn’t pay any attention to it . . . #blueanongE whackadoo logic
Just my interpretation, but I think what CF3 was trying to convey was “even though this doesn’t affect me in any meaningful way, I don’t like this, but I’m not sure how to articulate why it bothers me without sounding like a transphobe”

My original post was because I saw this thread had some action and I thought "hey, maybe there's some interesting discussion in here" only to see it was the usual pit trash that comes with the pit. So I posted that the silly pit'ing is lame. Then Rusty asked my opinion on the bike race and I shared that if I was involved I'd probably feel like it was unfair, which to Rusty was a gotcha moment for whatever reason. Also, all of us have opinions on things that don't affect us in any meaningful way, and that's ok.
I’m not triggered! You’re triggered!
Everyone with single brain cell understands that the moment one or two trans women want to ride on the Elite and are denied. There will be another crap storm.I've documented this repeatedly on this blog as to what occurs when cis-gendered women attempt to stand up for themselves. The terrible part is, the cis-gendered males that facilitate these meltdowns and their ridiculous equivocations and explanations.
Those who transition from female to male (FTM) are eligible to compete in the male category upon providing a written and signed declaration acceptable to the UCI Medical Manager. It is the responsibility of athletes to be aware of current WADA/USADA policies and to file for appropriate therapeutic use exemptions.Those who transition from male to female (MTF) are eligible to compete in the female category under the following conditions:1. The athlete has declared that their gender identity is female.2. The athlete must demonstrate that their total testosterone level in serum has been below 2.5 nmol/L for a period of at least 24 months.3. The athlete's total testosterone level in serum must remain below 2.5 nmol/L throughout the period of desired eligibility to compete in the female category.

Here is the current policy for elite competitions:Quote Those who transition from female to male (FTM) are eligible to compete in the male category upon providing a written and signed declaration acceptable to the UCI Medical Manager.
