Sports

I love football.  I'm not fanatical, but a fan.  I like basketball.  I can take it or leave it.  There are other "sports" that are not sports, but we will leave the olypics alone right now.

I read this story about a trans woman looking to go into the NBA (that's the man's side of basketball).  Obviously being trans, she used to be a man.  Good article.  The question is, if she didn't go to the NBA, would she go to the WNBA?  Didn't we have this discussion around the time of the olympics where there was a trans woman competing?  I remember reading the other day a trans woman competing in the MMA (Mixed Martial Arts).  You know its where the guys get together that don't \have many brain cells left and beat the hell out of each other. 





So what do you think?  If it's a Trans girl fighting, then would she have an advantage over the other girls?  In the NBA, are the boys scared a girl will beat them?  Or could we be getting to a place where we don't separate the genders and are good with blending. 

I know I am.
