05/05/2021It is not "controversial" to say that male athletes should not compete in the female sport category - it's 'common sense", according to Sky News host Alan Jones. Mr Jones said he agrees with Save Women's Sport Australasia, a "non-partisan, non-religious" organisation which "asserts" that "male athletes should not compete in the female sport category".
"I am still struggling to understand how such a position is deemed controversial," Mr Jones said. "Unfortunately, common sense is not common when it comes to Sports Australia. "They, along with the Australian Human Rights Commission - by the way, how the Coalition have not yet disbanded the Human Rights Commission I've got no idea – but these two outfits published guidelines two years ago that displaced the category of biological sex in favour of gender identity.
'By the way, how the Coalition have not yet disbanded the Human Rights Commission I've got no idea.' One of many things Alan has no idea about. Abolishing the HRC would require legislative change and even if they sought to, the Coalition doesn't have the numbers to pull it off.
Just remember, folks, if you're saying that 'transgender' people are still actually their original gender, then every single person on Earth is female, as that is how everyone starts out.
Is that silly old fart still babbling on about stuff? obsolete SelfInfested oldfool
The IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete in the Olympics since 2004. As yet, not a single trans athlete has managed to qualify, let alone win a medal. Seems like Jonesy is once again talking out of his arse.
