To the poster who asked, “what is a woman?” The person who gave birth to you is a woman.

Only people who've given birth are women?

The medical professionals treating trans people should recommend against trying to compete in competitive sports and steer them to recreational sports where acceptance can make them feel better, rather than facing ridicule and accusations of cheating by crushing women in competitive sports.

Women gave birth to every human on this planet.

Women have given birth to approximately 117 billion humans over the period of time our species has existed.

To everyone reading this, a woman gave birth to you. There are no exceptions to this statement.

That's a really good point.

Of what relevance is your post? Do you think it's relevant? Because my mother is a woman and father is a man, that means trans people are not real?
What about gay couples, after all a women gave birth to me so that must mean homosexuals are fake!

i feel like it will never feel normal reading "nikki" and then reading "they", "themselves" etc. without my brain doing a double take wondering who "they" is and then realizing nikki has special pronouns.

American record holder Nikki Hiltz. Tough for some to swallow.

If Biological men could compete in track and field at the elite level in the women's division no one would have ever heard of Nikki Hiltz. Hiltz is non-binary. Why doesn't she just compete in the men's division if this is no big deal?

I don't get why Nikki involves herself in stuff like this. It is in no way the same as Nikki's situation.

Im pretty sure she would hate it. If DSD athletes,and trans athletes came out,and dominated, nikki would not be so supportive.
NIkki has stated publicly that she supports Caster Semenya and she has no issue with DSD athletes competing. You are going to have to find a different made-up, bullsh!t idea to spread hate.

Would Nikki agree to assigning 8-9 women’s American records to Bruce Jenner, as he identified as a woman but couldn’t outwardly express it due to prejudice at the time? He is on record as saying he identified as a girl/woman since childhood. Therefore, according to Nikki, Bruce was a woman while actively competing in track and field.

I don't support her

Bruce was a woman during his competitive years. Prejudice and discrimination prevented him from being awarded all those women’s records at the time. The records should be posthumously assigned.

People should link this and similar threads in her Instagram. It might help her to see the will of the people.

Lol these Letsrun threads live in a bubble. Much more track fans love Nikki. Leave your basement and go to any pro race and see for yourself how much applause Hiltz gets.

Bruce Jenner ran 47.51 for 400m while identifying as a woman. Should the woman’s 400m be reassigned? Should we shed a tear?

Umm, whatever happened to having a good means to a good end? Do you think it is just to kill a docile boy who insists he is a girl to prevent him from entering a female-only locker room with girls inside? You've gone Machiavellian. The ends do not always justify the means. Your statement reminds me of the Palestinian protesters nowadays chanting "By any means possible!" - which strikes me as suggesting terrorism. The aspirations of the Palestinians may be just, but their implied means to attaining it, if they involve terrorism, are not.
I cannot believe the transgender insanity has gotten as far as it has, but lets not also lose touch with reality.
So according to you, it's okay for biological boys to murder biological girls, but it's not okay for biological girls to stand up for ourselves???
Your argument is totally backwards and wrong.
Girls and women DO have the right to stand up for ourselves, especially in cases like this.
You missed the point. Nobody said it's OK for boys to murder anyone. Lover, not a hater wrote that you need a good means to a good end, not merely a good end (preventing males in female only spaces). If you deny that then you are Machiavellian. You don't get to rob (bad means) just because you are trying to feed your family (good end). But Lover, not a hater responded to a post that said any means is OK. Any means is not acceptable: you don't get to detonate a nuclear bomb to keep some crazy man out of what should be a female-only locker room, bathroom, prison, etc. Lots of people will die if you detonate a nuclear bomb.
The chant (threat?) By any means possible is now associated with the recent pro-Palestinian protests. Sorry, but terror is not an acceptable means to achieving a free Palestine.
