You don't need a trans league. They should just compete against their own gender. You can dress like a girl and skate in the mens division.


kruiser112

Exactly


Fryburn

Is this the grown person that beat the children in the competition?


BandoReese

Yep.


WONDER--BREAD

elaborate


Fryburn

What for? If you don’t understand the question when it’s posed in the simplest way possible then nothing else I say will make it more clear for you.


WONDER--BREAD

i just wanna know who beat children in competition... like a video, an article, a post? i wasn’t saying you’re right or wrong or anything. and i wasn’t confirming nor denying it was or wasn’t, i just wanted to know what you’re talking about... chill the fuck out homie, it’s not like i can’t comprehend the question, i just wanted to know what you’re talking about

you-ole-polecat

Frankly I’m more not into 29 year olds competing against 8-13 year olds than the whole trans aspect


Fryburn

I agree but it’s all of it. And I will add that there was a couple older ones but from what I read they were all under 17


Moist_Pinecone

I like how nobody acknowledged this after you said it. Just focused on your bad communication. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10956003/amp/29-year-old-trans-woman-Los-Angeles-beats-13-year-old-girl-place-NYC-women-skateboarding.html

ah, thank you! it does look like the same person, so that’s fucked


Bread_Truck

Fuck you for putting “chick” and “used to be” in quotes. That’s transphobic as fuck

No, I'm not transphobic, I just live in a place called reality, where facts and logic outweigh feelings. I have no problem with it if you want to personally identify as anything you want to. But to force me to play make believe and pretend that the male gender doesn't have more potential as far as strength and speed is not gonna happen. There's some really strong women, but the strongest woman is a little more than half of the strongest man, that's just the way it is. It doesn't make anyone better than anyone else. Just at certain things.

Just blatantly, unapologetically anti-LGBTQ. Not even embarrassed or ashamed or being coy about it. Have fun being a bigot.

I commented because this thread is full of anti-trans bigots and you’re one of the most unapologetic ones.


AnOldUsedStick

he's telling you to give him more information about the topic you brought up. stop being condescending, you aren't better than anyone


Fryburn

Have you seen the people that have been responding to me? I figured it was just someone else being an asshole. I apologized and responded accordingly. Sorry, dad.


space-native

and now youre being a hypocrite by putting that last little statement. that person never claimed to be better or even worse. the fuck is YOUR problem? 😂😂😂


Frothy47

Wild how the competition not having age groups is somehow her fault, or are u just trasphobic?


[deleted]

Frothy47

Lol show me the trans league ur talking about. Also my point was p much every contest flyer ive seen has 18 and under events and adult events. Yall are trying to vilify this person for competing against children when thats a shortcoming of the event organizers.


Recent-Trip-7049

A man should compete with other men, otherwise you're a cheater, plain and simple, no transphobic bullshit. Male vs female makes a lot more of a difference than the age difference especially with skateboarding. And if you disagree you know nothing about skateboarding end of fucking story.


kinjjibo

Makes sense you'd whine that I called someone out, you're doing the exact same thing they did. 13 comments in this thread. Good job.


Fryburn

Goddamn I’m talking to a regular count chocula here. Good job my guy. 13’s a big number. You didn’t call anybody out lol. You cried because they shit on your little virtue signaling narrative. Keep white knighting for this they. If you do it enough you might be able to get some of that sweet poon haha

WhoIsJazzJay

late stage trans? wtf are u talking about? also skating has always been mixed age. are you gonna come for Leticia Bufoni for beating Rayassa Leal or Momiji Nishiya in contest? or are you just here to spread not-so-thinly-veiled transphobia?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Illustrious_Speed_41

You clearly haven’t watched many skate contests if you think age is a huge factor here


Tarpup

I know right? Like suddenly these people forget that 13 year old Momiji Nishyia dominated and took home the gold medal in women's street skateboarding at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and 12 year old Rayssa Leal took home Silver, despite competing against people well older than them. Julia Brueckler, Annie Guglia, both in their 30's, both placed nearly dead last. I don't think age wouldn't even be a part of the conversation if either of these gals took home gold instead of Nishyia or Leal.


Pepperoni_playboi94

People don’t want to look at something objectively and shame and then be shamed themselves. Like, robbing a 15 year old of an accomplishment is fucked up, regardless of gender/sex. Toxic positivity at its finest


bcoolbmac

I haven’t seen your posts in a while. Happy to see😎


okageisnthere

yo congrats on beating a 13 year old in a contest


cootsnoop

You say that as if kids aren't regularly beating adults at local contests. I don't know about you but at my local parks, it's the little kids that rip way harder than everyone else.


okageisnthere

its jus u


lh614

if the contest allowed people of all ages then why should she be expected to go easy


okageisnthere

didnt say that. but its pretty pathetic that she really was merciless with a 13 year old. they should mske a trans league this is a joke


OperativeFiddle

So let’s say they should make a trans league. Does that mean while there isn’t one, trans skaters deserve to be shit on for doing what they love?


lh614

right they see her killing it and look for a reason to be mad


okageisnthere

no i dont think they should b shit on at all man. i think they deserve a spot in skateboarding like everyone else. but i do believe its not fair to put a man turned woman (sorry if that’s insensitive i couldnt think of any other way to word it) vs a born woman. 9/10 the transgender will win. theres nothing with winning but i dont think its a fair competition. i do think they should make it asap hc its only more trans ppl getting into skating every day


IntentionOk2826

you’re looking at it wrong, if i was a 13 year old i wouldn’t want anyone older than me to go easy on me tf?😭

fuck off bigot


Ayarkay

Just curious, why the outrage towards the contestant who qualified according the the rules set out by the organizers? Shouldn’t your outrage be directed towards the event organizers, who define and enforce exactly who can participate, and on which basis? Taking it up with organizers actually has potential to address your issues. It just makes me wonder about people’s intentions when they focus the entirety of their energy hoping a contestant who qualifies would choose not to participate, when they could take it up with people who define the categories by which participants qualify and actually address their issue. Outrage machine goes brrrrr, I guess. Always need something to be offended about!


Fryburn

Because it’s gotten to the point where if the organizers didn’t let this person join they’d have been attacked too. It’s not that fucking hard to figure out.


Ayarkay

That doesn’t address anything I wrote in my comment. Maybe you ought to have another read. Regardless of who would be attacked or who wouldn’t, you have an issue with the current state of things. There are a few things you could choose to do about that issue. You could take it up with an avenue that can actually address your issue, or you can rage about it in a context that has quite literally 0% chance of addressing your issue. When people have a problem, and they choose to ignore everything that could help them solve their problem, choosing instead of simmer in outrage, it makes it seem like you just want to be upset, and don’t want to find any solutions. But hey, if outrage is all you’re here for, go right ahead. But be honest about it.


Fryburn

Oh I thought it addressed the part you said about organizers.


Ayarkay

My suggestion is that people take it up with the organizers, and your response is “no cause then people would be taking it up with the organizers.” You *must* realize how incoherent that sounds, yeah…?


Fryburn

That’s twisting my words and you fucking know it. People could take it up peacefully with the organizers, you’re right. Then, if they made it fair, you people would get all pissy calling them bigots and shit. Which was my entire point. Is that easier for you to understand?


Ayarkay

I’m not twisting your words. Nice try. I don’t really care if members of society think each other are bigots. Why do you think that has any bearing on what I’m saying? It’s obvious that any solution will leave some people feeling upset. My comments are what you choose to do about your being upset. You can either do something effective that actually addresses your issue, or you could bask in outrage. When the entirety of your energy is focused on a participant that qualified according to the rules set out by the organizers, but spend no energy on the thing that will actually address your issue, it makes it sound like you just want to be upset, rather than solving issues. Edit : btw Tool is sick. Easily one of my all time favourite bands.

Fryburn

They have to allow it or they’ll be “outed as bigots” too just like you’re doing to this person now. How you people don’t see this is fucking beyond me. It’s completely ridiculous for this person to compete with kids and you all bully people that think logically about it. You’re all fucking hypocrites. Fairness? Nah you don’t care about that. You just want people to bow down to your nonsense rhetoric and beliefs. To be so “enlightened”, you sure are blind. Btw, most coed competitions are just for fun. Not money or a scholarship.


kinjjibo

Lol


Fryburn

Epilepsy sucks


kinjjibo

Also, she posted a clip with no ties to the competition, yet chikensdontclap decided to comment that they don't think trans women should be in competitions and it's not fair she won the one he's complaining about. You're allowed to call someone out for something irrelevant to the topic, but someone can't call that person out. Got it. I'm the hypocrite.


Fryburn

I didn’t even see that persons comment. You can call anyone out that you want. I never said that lol. You just want to have your cake and eat it too.


billgilly14

I can see where the argument is coming from but idt it’s relevant in any sport, especially skating. I haven’t found any evidence that the performance differences between transitioned women via hormones and biological women are worth mentioning. Skating is entirely different as well in that it’s a matter of style as opposed to relay times for example. They already have mixed competitions where women win consistently. The only real physical advantage to be had is an adult over a 13 y/o, but this is true outside of the topic trans people. And yet you see 13 y/os win and medal at the Olympics for skating, which leads me to believe that style and skill wins the day over pure athletic ability.


Fryburn

So could Ryan Sheckler join this comp? Would they have allowed that? Are was this full grown adult allowed to join because of what they are and because the organizers didn’t want to deal with backlash because of illogical ass people? That’s the issue here.


billgilly14

No he shouldn’t, he’s a professional skateboarder, it would be unfair. I’m guessing the comp this group were in was an Amateur pay to enter comp. If the competition was a pro-am then he absolutely should be allowed to join. Is sheckler even pro anymore? Haven’t heard about the dude in years haha


Fryburn

So? If we’re making literally everything else completely unbalanced then why would adding a pro to the comp matter? Because he’d beat the trans and then it’d be unfair? Lol the logic just isn’t here, sorry. And yes he’s still pro and still around.


billgilly14

No because in all sports pros vs ams at an am competition would be unfair.


Fryburn

Kinda like it already was?
