Ms Dorries has said she wants other sports to follow in the footsteps of swimming authorities in banning trans athletes from women's elite events

She said on Tuesday that she had just met the sporting bodies to discuss trans participation and that it was"a complex and emotionally charged issue" that had"been ducked for too long".

"Today I have made my position absolutely clear: I expect sporting bodies to follow the policy that competitive women's sport must be reserved for people born of the female sex. Nancy Kelley, chief executive of the LBTQ+ group Stonewall, said in response to the comments that International Olympic Committee guidelines made clear that"inclusion is the starting point and that we should not presume an advantage based on someone's trans status or intersex characteristics".

Perhaps we should also ban bellends from working in Government…. That’d be you Nadine!!

M2F and F2M categories. Simple and Fair! Now stop crying and start pushing for this to be included.

Something I can agree with her on is this

Born a male , always a male

Not just elite events Every woman’s /girls event let them have they’re own event

Well done, males should not be competing against females 👏

🤨🤬

Can't see why anyone has a problem banning men from women's sports

Daily reminder You Will Never Be A Women YWNBEW

The pendulum is starting to swing the other way eventually the lying scum in the media will be removed and prior will begin to realise the truth ..

Just have trans sports 🤷‍♂️ don't see the big issue.

Good on her!

Tom Daley 'furious' at FINA decision to ban transgender swimmers from elite women's competitionsDaley, 28, said that 'like most queer people' he is strongly opposed to the FINA decision, which allows female-to-male transgender swimmers to compete - but no transgender women who have gone through male puberty. Hey Tom, how about we will celebrate the inclusion of trans women in women's sport, when you include trans women as your next surrogate mother. Let us know when it's done..... Another dishonest headline. Transgender ATHLETES are not banned; trans-identified females can perfectly well enter female competitions (if not doping). Trans-identified MALES are banned from female competitions. “Man thinks other men should be allowed to do whatever they want just because they want to” is hardly news.

Violence against women: Men and boys urged to speak outEveryone in Northern Ireland has a role to play when it comes to tackling violence against women and girls, an EVAWG conference in Belfast has heard. Teach it in primary school Imaging having hargy at something like this kinda makes a mockery of the whole thing Having a father present by far the biggest influence on correct male behaviour. Need to emphasize the family unit instead of saying every shape and size of family is equal. For boys it's crucial they have the Dad there as a role model.
