Comments by "Green Hornet" (@greenhornet8262) on "Transgender athletes banned from elite international track and field events l GMA" video.
The problem for me comes for situations like The South African athlete. She is not transgender, she hasn’t gone through any surgery to change herself. She was just born that way. It’s not fair to punish her for something that naturally gives her an advantage in athletics Just like usual bolt isn’t punished for being naturally taller

@chingron the solution is to let her race the way she is. If she is female and has XX chromosomes so then nothing else should matter. Five years ago I had the same position as I do now. If she is born female which she was, then she deserves to race with others born female.

@chingron I never said anyone should be banned for a unfair advantage. if it they naturally possess it, then they deserve to race.

@chingron again, you don’t call it giving it a pass for usaine bolt for having longer legs as an advantage, so you shouldn’t be called giving it a pass for her.

@chingron I would understand if she had a penis or testicles, but she doesn’t. That doesn’t make her Trans. Trans people want to physically alter themselves. She’s not playing dress up, etc.

@chingron if she is intersex, that means she has both male and female features, so where do you expect her to compete. She’s has too much of an advantage for female races and not fair enough advantage for male races.

@chingron you didn’t provide any solution, you just dismissed her with what she can’t do. As I’ve said before, the solution is to let her compete with the group of those where she was born, which is female. You keep saying life isn’t fair for 100 % of people, well that relates to everyone else who you claim aren’t fairly competing against her doesnt it. Say life isn’t fair to all the females who think racing with her isn’t fair. If you’re not going to provide a solution other than saying there’s no solution, and saying she shouldn’t compete at all, you shouldn’t input on what she decides to do.
