“It’s About Protecting Young Girls!” | Sharron Davies On Swimming Trans Ban

World swimming has effectively banned transgender women from competing in women’s events.
FINA has widely adopted a new “gender inclusion” policy which permits swimmers who transitioned before age 12 to compete in women’s events.
TalkTV’s Renee Hoenderkamp is joined by former Olympic Swimmer Sharron Davies to discuss the future of swimming.
Sharron: “It is about protecting young girls and boys across all sports.”

Legend Sharron Davis it was the right thing , the facts about the advatages are obvious . Well done Sharron

[@valansley]

WELL DONE Sharon 👏

[@seandelap8587]

They should compete in their own categories simple as that

[@jlm3124]

Be kind to women. They can race against men and have their times counted separately. I bet they won't want to do that, for the very reason Sharon describes over women not wanting that. Makes me so angry, the selfishness and entitlement of these trans athletes.

[@gingermcginge6466]

It still baffles me that people are upset that actual women don’t want part time women competing in their comps.

[@phildemetriou440]

Part time woman ?

[@gingermcginge6466]

@@phildemetriou440 yeah a man playing dress up isn’t a woman therefore just part time.

[@TERFClub]

Love you Sharron keep on fighting for the women and girls!! And so will we 👏👏👏

[@Eviledna67]

So true! What happened to the campaign This Girl Can?! We all need to stand together - why have women always had to fight for fair play?!

[@Mike-1000]

*Sharron Davies knows the score 👍👍*

[@kevin982]

Sharron finally vindicated.

[@sallywright8065]

Amen to that

[@thewerewolfofnorway437]

We can all thank Kelly Jay, among others, for this ruling.

[@awakeningthespine]

Why would girls be allowed to transition before 12 years of age! This is insane!

[@tomnicholson2115]

A good start, but more needs doing, anything that was a man not only banned from womens sports but also women only spaces.

[@Johnny-sj9sj]

As a normal bloke, I couldn't agree with you more! God bless the likes of Kellie Jay Keen, and everyone else who stands up for female privacy.

[@KennyKen2009]

two gorgeous, clever ladies

[@diman2842]

Im glad you mentioned parkrun... Because it's not just about high level competitions... Thise local records and PBs count

[@lesleymooney305]

We all owe Sharron, Kellie-Jay, Douglas et al so much for all they have done and continue to do. Push back against this nonsense is a victory for common sense

[@ianreid]

Thomas hasn't transitioned so HE is a male and should never have been allowed in women's sports or changing areas. Never see a woman transitioned to male winning against real men.

[@jillyanddavedave280]

They should form a twanky category.

[@Deb-ator]

I would be happy to watch a transgender Olympics. Not sure why none of the trans community is advocating for one. I have met trans women and believe that there are people who believe that they are born in the wrong body BUT many people seem to suspect that there is a cohort of men who either can't compete and win against men now choosing to identify as women to compete against women or are incels identifying as women to access women. I wasn't swayed by the view but I do feel it strange that the loudest voices are the trans women, where are the voices of the trans men?

[@sharlenemckenzie9688]

Easy These men get off on the distress of women It’s called misogyny

[@sharonvogancawston3275]

Competition needs to be fair for everyone, but we do just need to remember that there are a few children born intersex.

[@Deb-ator]

That's biological. Therefore this doesn't apply to them.

[@chuck2306]

protecting young girls No it is the right of all females to have privacy from Males in their changing room competing in physical sports is not fare if males compete Trans woman are Not women.

[@J80MBO]

Renee promoted

[@다미최-w5b]

To be frank , there is little difference between a big muscly female swimmer and a trans swimmer.

[@phildemetriou440]

One has a vagina and the other has a penis, that's a big difference !

[@aaronjamesmoore757]

I dont think women should be allowed to make a decision on anything

[@tomnicholson2115]

Go back to your cave!

[@shanerosser]

No. Women wants to get rid of everything that is trans so that they can wipe out on all men who are trans.

[@Johnny-sj9sj]

What the hell are you on about? From that comment, you are an oxygen thief and a waste of skin. Please go back to bed. For about six months.

[@Deb-ator]

Neither should morons.

[@edaleman2758]

I wonder how many of the people commenting have ever met a transgender person 🤔

[@royboy6301]

And your point is ...

[@NPC--666]

I have. So what's your point? 🤔

[@stevelee9924]

So have I, c'mon snuggles, what's your point.

[@TERFClub]

Yes I know many,. I also know some that are openly on women’s side and detest what’s going on in their name.

[@tashaax1993xanimalloverx]

Actually have a trans cousin and know 2 others ....but what's that got to do with anything ? Being a woman I have the right to an opinion simple as

[@Bobby-LeeChanning]

STOP PROMOTING HATRED AGAINST MINORITIES .....BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS
