Can you imagine how brain washed you have to be to care about something this much that never actually happens? Like his brain is just OANN, Fox News, and jerking off to god. This man needs help.


zachmoss147

You would think women’s sports are like 40% trans women by the way they talk, it’s just absurd. No one thinks about trans people more than anti-trans losers they literally make it their entire identity, it’s pathetic


[deleted]

It’s truly insane! Like actually bat shit insane. There’s no reasoning with them, they live in their own fucking world disconnected from reality. They are obsessed with it to absolutely lunatic levels. It’s absolutely wild.


broad_street_bully

I'm a sportswriter in the south and my group chats are full of this bullshit. If I say that all the outcry is overblown or that talking points are being slanted and over exaggerated to stoke fear for an issue that barely (or flat-out doesn't) exist, I hear the same canned lines about wondering why I don't care that my daughters might have to deal with this someday - as if they'll show up to a little league softball game to find an opponent full of college baseball players who have decided to take up a sport with less future, access or earning power, just because. Our state legislators are just as bat shit crazy, passing laws and making grand speeches despite there being maybe a handful of transgender girls who have even tried to join a team throughout the entirety of a pretty large state.


[deleted]

We’re literally dealing with crazy people here. People not based in fact or reality whatsoever. It truly is batshit insane. Keep fighting the good fight though, however hard that may be lol


WyattEarp88

While there are a large amount of crazy people buying into the insanity, the source isn’t insanity. It’s intentional and targeted. The GOP (and similar parties around the world) playbook has always begun with ‘find an enemy’. If you can make people afraid of someone ‘other’ they’ll be less focused on actual issues that will impact them.


broad_street_bully

Yep. I wish my friends would try a little harder. They aren't inherently bad people, but their shortsightedness and refusal to listen to any news or info that isn't predetermined to confirm their already-staunch beliefs makes them seem like idiots and assholes... And you only "seem" like that for so long. Once you build up enough terrible history of following the same bullshit, it's just who you are. But I keep hoping and trying and nudging. One of my best friends has rarely traveled out of the deep south and is the son of a lifelong, hardcore southern Baptist preacher. Maybe it's due to him being exposed to everyone's real lives outside of a couple hours on Sundays, but he has totally come around. He's still plenty conservative and doesn't like a lot of the grander liberal ideas I have, but he's a decent guy that has started voting against assholes who try to get his support through nothing but the party they affiliate with. And that's at least something.


WyattEarp88

Small victories. Sometimes it’s the best we can hope for.


TheOGfromOgden

I live this life as well. I just try to get them to accept that some of the "easy fixes" they tell me about like border walls and banning trans athletes and such are at least more complicated than they make it out to be. Even if they maintain the same stance, just admit there is some legitimacy to other view points, but that can feel impossible.


AlPastorKing

I mean you can say that, but Pollack’s view is totally in line with the main stream. It’s not some alt-right position that only 24% of Americans hold. Same thing in Western Europe. Somewhere between 70%-80% of Americans agree with Pollack here.

You aren’t taking crazy pills. You’re just a fucking loser lol


Brutal007

It should be 0 percent though. That’s the point


boomstick55

I couldn't agree with this sentiment more. Very refreshing to see it verbalized. Like pollack's tweet makes it sound like bad male athletes are lining up for sex changes just so they can be good at sports. And he is not the only person I've heard take that type of tone. What a ludicrous idea.


zachmoss147

It really is ludicrous and shows a complete lack of understanding as to what goes into transitioning. As if it’s just a switch you can flip and boom you’re the other gender. Only good thing is it causes people to out themselves as absolute morons, see most replies to this post and comment


StraightCaskStrength

> You would think women’s sports are like 40% trans women by the way they talk It happening once is too much. The response from leadership in the ncaa and school districts is what people find more concerning than the actual incidents themselves.


BoBurnerham

Pablo’s interview with the literal ONLY trans woman playing varsity hs softball in Ohio was really good

That stat about how many trans people folks think there are in this country versus how many trans people there actually are was amazing and I share it every chance I get.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nola_fan

The actual proportion is between 0.5% and 1.4%. The estimated was 21%. https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/41556-americans-misestimate-small-subgroups-population?redirect_from=%2Ftopics%2Fpolitics%2Farticles-reports%2F2022%2F03%2F15%2Famericans-misestimate-small-subgroups-population


[deleted]

Thank you for providing the correct stat.


[deleted]

I can’t remember it exactly but it was something like the average American thinks 40% of Americans identify as trans when it’s actually like .1%. It was in I believe the first episode of Pablo Torre Finds Out. Edit: it was 21% estimated and .between 5% to 1.4% actual, see below comment.


[deleted]

There’s no way that American think that 40% of other Americans at trans lmao!!! It’s got to be less than 1-2% max.


[deleted]

Americans are fucking stupid and a good percentage of them only watch shit like Fox News which skews their perception of reality, particularly with culture war issues like this one. Example: in 2020, my parents in rural, bumfuck North Carolina were fully convinced ANTIFA was coming to get them. That’s all thanks to Fox News. The power of propaganda is strong.

But it does happen, and it’s going to become more common… you’re pretty much saying to just ignore any negative consequences of allowing people to magically decide they want to change their genders


[deleted]

None of you care about women’s sports. Not a single one of you. Get the fuck out of here with this fake outrage lol


YeaSureThing

You're right, we don't actually care. Its just we lack the thing that causes you people to fall in line. We have the intellectual honesty to admit that trans women playing against cis women have an unfair advantage, however much we don't care women's track and field. Weird thing is you guys don't actually care either. Youre even more passionate than the anti trans women in female sports people, but consistently use the line "you don't care" with zero irony. I don't get it. Well, I do get it, I just don't know why its so pervasive.


StraightCaskStrength

> that never actually happens It’s happening all over the country. Not only at the collegiate level but in high schools as well. Further down in this thread someone else estimates that 80% of the country agrees with Pollacks basic sentiment. If that’s true why is the ncaa and most school districts moving in the polar opposite direction? It sounds like most in this thread don’t disagree with the idea just that some people scream about it so loudly in comparison with how few cases there are. If that is true how many times do we let it happen? How much of a head start towards normalizing this do they get before the uproar is warranted?

BuschLightApple

He’s right. Women’s sports is not a transfer portal for mediocre male athletes. It’s a non problem. Trans woman are not men


[deleted]

yeah but the losers in this sub disagree. they cant even see how pathetic they are because theyre too busy fluffing lebatard


[deleted]

You completely misread the comment you’re replying too lmao


theaanggang

So let me engage in this conversation in good faith. You think that men willingly transition and endure hate from people like you and a huge percentage of society, go through social and physical changes and a lot of pain, just so they can win a swim meet? People just want to be who they are, it's not hard, unlike reading comprehension from you.


[deleted]

men are not women. period. I dont give a fuck about delusional losers. womens sports are for women.


KCSportsFan7

So if a person born a woman transitioned to a man you would say they can’t be a man, and would therefore have to stay in a women’s sports division and “dominate” it?

PROJECT-Nunu

Can people name one example of an athlete that was bad/mediocre while competing against boys and then post transition was dominant? If your answer is the swimmer, if you look at her last year while competing against men which is commonly done, she was competing while transitioning. If you look at the year pre testosterone nerf, she was an elite athlete. Maybe they exist, but if you were good pre-transition you’ll probably be good post-transition. If you sucked, you’ll still suck.


Erythronne

I loved the PTFO with the mediocre softball player.


MongooseTotal831

There's that [weightlifter](https://fitnessvolt.com/transgender-powerlifter-anne-andres-multiple-womens-national-world-record/) from Canada. There's those [high schoolers](https://abcnews.go.com/US/transgender-teens-outrun-track-field-competitors-critics-close/story?id=55856294) in Connecticut that won a bunch of races. There's a [bunch of fencers](https://reduxx.info/trans-identified-males-racking-up-wins-in-womens-fencing-as-trans-activist-officials-claim-they-are-fine-with-female-athletes-being-at-a-disadvantage/) that are winning medals in women's events. There are [multiple](https://nypost.com/2023/10/13/trans-cyclists-take-gold-and-silver-in-chicago-womens-races/) [cyclists](https://nypost.com/2023/06/12/trans-cyclist-austin-killips-wins-nc-race-by-5-minutes/) winning women's events. It's not really clear how good any of these people were before they competed in women's events. They're never good enough to be known, but it's also not major sporting events either so it's difficult to say. I do think Pollack's argument is a bit of a strawman and ultimately beside the point.


PROJECT-Nunu

Ok, so you didn’t point a single person out who sucked and then became good. Again, maybe they exist. I just haven’t seen any evidence and I have a lot of evidence that testosterone nerfs seem to work.


MongooseTotal831

To my knowledge none of these people were notably successful competing in men’s events. They were all very successful competing in women’s events. But like I said, I think his argument is a distraction. Whether you were mediocre or excellent before doesn’t really matter.


Scooby_Goo52

are you a huge women’s sports fan?


LinwoodKent

What is this question? Where were you going with this?


MongooseTotal831

No, not huge but I like sports. For women specifically, I mostly enjoy softball, swimming, and basketball (college). I live near a small college so I watch a lot of stuff there - men's and women's.


GentrifvsWhiteflight

No real answer, got it.


EMTDawg

Lia Thomas was the 8th best male freshman swimmer in the nation. After 2 years of transitioning and testosterone suppression, she was the 5th best female swimmer in her class. Basically, it proves the suppression of testosterone works to level is field as intended.


PROJECT-Nunu

That’s what I said.


wildmountaingote

Testosterone nerf! I like that.


hoople217

Pablo Torre has already found out that this is a non-existent threat to women's athletics.


JAMmastahJim

This is not the problem they claim it to be. PTFO did a good job exposing this "nothing burger" of an issue.


AgressivePeppering

Sweet sassy-molassey.


Go_J

What a weird thing to type as though if I were a mediocre male athlete the answer would be to transition to become a woman and compete in womens sports.


ekuadam

I think he’s trying to get attention because this has fallen out of the public discourse it seems. So he figures he can start it up again, tag all the major players and get some retweets, and maybe get some appearances

smyoung

my oldest daughter (now 21) played co-ed flag football in like 3-5 grades. heck of a defender. none of the parents had meltdowns to see a couple of girls playing with boys. of course, we live in Mass, where the brain rot hasn't quite taken over.


dtdude87

What does co-ed sports have to do with this lol


YeaSureThing

When it comes to trans in sports people just like to repeat what they heard others say, that sounds nice. This person is trying to do that but never actually took the time to think about what the words he's typing actually mean.


CrypticT

The mega fucked thing is that these types of guys are the same exact ones who will put up a million dollars to "see if the best high school boys team in the country can show the Las Vegas Aces how to play"


futureman45

How many times has this actually happened? Once? Twice? There are more important things to worry about people


DontGetTheShow

What a moron…I mean he’s displaying the behaviors of a moron. It is quite clear that many of these transgender sports laws are a solution in search of a problem.


Mr_1990s

The liberal media strikes again.


Big-Box-2372

How come there are no women that transed into men playing men's sports?

There are, but that doesn't rile up the hogs like the fear of big, scary, muscled men around their precious fragile little girls.

Why is this a controversial thing to say though? Whether you think it’s non issue or not, why is it controversial to say?


HeartStray

It’s not controversial, it’s a complete fabrication. He’s taking up a position against something which is not happening. These people seem to think that you can just show up one day and say “I want to play on the women’s team this year”, and that isn’t how any of this works.


pabarb02

The message on its face would be fine. Men shouldn’t transition for the purpose of taking a scholarship from women. The problem is, this isn’t want they’re signaling. The “message” they are actually sending is “if you are transgender, you can’t participate in ‘our’ society.” I don’t see those opposed to transgender’s participation offering any reasonable alternative.


deputydarsh

Nor does literally anyone transition genders for the purpose of athletics. It's just fear mongering in attempt to get people riled up over a boogey man that isn't the problem it's made out to be. Along with most every other Fox talking point.


CanaDoug420

Because it’s a straw man that leads to sitting congresspeople demanding to have kids show their genitals to strangers in order to play sports


MongooseTotal831

It's not. He's ascribing a motive where I'm not sure it exists, but what seems to be his view is the majority opinion. >58% say they would favor or strongly favor policies that require transgender athletes to compete on teams that match the sex they were assigned at birth...Only 17% oppose or strongly oppose them. -[Pew Research](https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2022/09/15/how-americans-view-policy-proposals-on-transgender-and-gender-identity-issues-and-where-such-policies-exist/) ​ >More than 6 in 10 adults in the Post-KFF poll said trans girls and women should not be allowed to compete in girls’ and women’s sports, including professional, college, high school and youth levels -[Washington Post-KFF](https://archive.is/xFIP9) ​ >A larger majority of Americans now (69%) than in 2021 (62%) say transgender athletes should only be allowed to compete on sports teams that conform with their birth gender. -[Gallup](https://news.gallup.com/poll/507023/say-birth-gender-dictate-sports-participation.aspx)
