Literally no one
McKinnon did his CNN bit. He’s highly excited.
CNN calls him Associate Professor of Philosophy at College of Charleston, which is misleading since he’s “quit” [or been told to quit or be fired, or just plain been fired] and will be gone as of May 15 and has been on sabbatical and then medical leave all this year.
His fans are gloating at his…erm…whatever this is.
Anyway. Point is, things have to be arranged to suit McKinnon. That’s all you need to understand about trans women in sport.
There you go. If transgender people had their own sports then McKinnon would literally have no one to race against, and we can’t have that, so all of women’s sport has to be wide open to takeover by men who say they are women. Mind you he doesn’t explain why he wouldn’t have people to race against, he just asserts it, as if it were a rule of sport that people who win literally have no one to compete against. He’s equating being the best in the field with being the only in the field, but that’s just silly. Literally.
He’d have plenty of people to race against.
Men. Or, shall I say, other men.
There are plenty of men at his level in the world, and plenty better than him. He wouldn’t win at the top level competing against men.
He could compete in high school races, maybe, and maybe even win there. Why is that somehow less acceptable than competing against women?
Of course we know why. It’s not fun to crap all over the accomplishments of high schoolers, but it’s fun (and acceptable) to crap all over women’s dreams and goals.
Bingo.
To be fair to Cyclepath here, I think he would also think it was fun to crap all over the accomplishments of high schoolers. Social circumstances alone probably rule that out.
It’s not fun to crap all over the accomplishments of male high schoolers. I think we’ve seen from his attack on the girl from Connecticut that he has no problem with males crapping all over female high school sports. It’s just he knows that no one would accept a claim that he was a trans-teenager and let him run against teens. Why? Teenager is quite definitely a social construct, but the actual fact that he is larger than a lot of high school kids, and certainly has more years of training would send everyone into apoplexy if he tried.
