Woman’s sports for all

 Biden has just signed on “on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity” 

Basically what it means is that your biological gender and whatever gender you feel are now the same and by law in America should be treated equally.


Now boys who identify as girls will soon be able to use girls’ changing rooms, even if girls using those facilities feel uncomfortable about this! 


This also means that trans-woman can complete against biological woman in sports..... stop and think about this and the impact it will have on sports scholarships, bursaries and grants that relies upon sporting prowess and achievements.



 



Some of the poorer kids in the states only can afford to attend college through a sports scholarship, so for example a not so well off girl from a poor family may still be able to attend college as it will be paid for her if a talent evaluation considers her a good enough athlete by winning at her chosen sport. Now consider that men can out-perform women at about 95% of sports 




An example of this is Serena Williams at her peak was the best women's tennis player ever produced, and she likely wouldn't have beat any man in the top 50, probably not even top 100


So should women & girls should quit whining, put a smile on their face & try harder? Because you are not going to beat a bloke who has had the bone density and muscular advantage of testosterone raging through his body for mist of his life, even if he were to start taking testosterone blockers now to reduce his hormones to a lower level this advantage (like sports enhancing drugs) has already been coursing through his system for years building his foundations to kick your arse if the sport you have been flogging your guts most your life for is advantageous to be stronger at with muscles and bones and tendons .... which for most sports this is an advantage. 


‘Biden Erased Women’ is now trending on Twitter. The very laws that were established to protect the rights of girls to single sex toilets, changing rooms and sports are now soon to be turned upside down by presidential decree. Legislation that was intended to protect the rights of girls to single-sex provision could now make single-sex services impossible.


Check some of my previous posts where I have wrote about the dangers of this before ....now soon to become realities across the post.


This is anything but progressive!!

On the cards

 Today I was reading on Reuters online about a lass called Indy Mellink, she is a Dutch card fan and was explaining a game to her cousins last summer when she asked herself: why should a king be worth more than a queen?



The 23-year-old forensic psychology graduate, encouraged by her father, decided it was time to break with the centuries-old tradition of sexual inequality in playing card decks that rank men above women.

“If we have this hierarchy that the king is worth more than the queen then this subtle inequality influences people in their daily life because it’s just another way of saying ‘hey, you’re less important,” she said in an interview. “Even subtle inequalities like this do play a big role.”


So apparently now after a lot of trial and error, she designed a genderless deck in which the images of a king, queen and jack were replaced with gold, silver and bronze.

After a few months, she had sent out around 1,500 pack as she has started selling online 


I am just wondering what will be the next target for “wokeness”

Perhaps chess but it’s a woman(symbolic) that is the most powerful piece which is the Queen.

The Queen is more powerful than the King although I don’t see men going crazy with woke eagerness to make the pieces on a chess board ore “gender fluid” or gender free. 

But the there will be some who consider it’s the Queen that does all the work whilst the fat king wobbles around one square at a time trying to not get caught and the game only ends when king is mated so the woke bridge may have something to say about this and some wee self-righteous virtue signaller similar to our wee Indy Mellink of the cards ab  above may consider consider it’s time for a change for this old game .... but then again if someone has such energy perhaps it could be put to better use by encouraging people not to be so weak-minded and triggered by every little thing they don't like,  It is sad how people like her seem to think human beings are too stupid to differentiate real life from fun and games, and that our thoughts need to be policed.

Selling Scotland Down the River

I know that it’s picking the low hanging fruit these days when criticising the Scottish National Party, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel....but still I can’t help myself so you can imagine my joy coming across their Official Merchandise Store online (snpstore.org) 

It’s says on their site “The SNP Store is the official online store of the Scottish National Party. By purchasing from the SNP store you are helping the SNP shape our nation’s future success”.... Sales will go towards their campaign for Scottish independence (not the cloning of extinct “read never was” Unicorn DNA to introduce they into the highlands, I think they gave up on that one once they learnt glitter is not unicorn DNA) 


The first thing that caught my eye was the official SNP “Scottish ‘n proud” Gin which is selling for a small 50cl at £32.99 ...which they are again showing there humour surely and having a laugh at this price.

The irony is not lost that the SNP introduce minimum pricing on Alcohol because they claim that The Scottish people have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol whilst here they are peddling their own Gin.....I guess they have since branched out from selling snake oil. 






They also sell teddy bears wearing a “Yes” t-shirt ....I thought political parties where not allowed to politicise to children but they have been known in the pass to turn up at schools and hand out SNP balloons ... they try to indoctrinate them young. 





I must also say I was quite surprised to see their “Scotland in Europe” t-shirts still on sale for £16...I wonder what next? Perhaps “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart play live at the Hydro 2021 tour” 




They also sell a “Scotland in Europe” face mask, I certainly hope it does a better job at blocking airborne particles then the SNP have done with their pledge to stay in the EU but as reading the small print  “this item is not classified as PPE Equipment” I would think not, but it would not surprise me if Jeane Freeman starts handing out any unsold stock to nurses and doctors on the front line. 

If you don’t fancy that design of face mask they do have another politically designed 26 to choose from on their pages at £8 a pop .... nothing quite like cashing in on a pandemic.






I am actually surprised the SNP have not opened up their own funeral directors company, they’d certainly do a roaring trade especially due to how they have handled the pandemic in nursing homes. 

(If you find that joke bad taste then the chances are that you support the SNP which then points to you having worst taste... touché separatists, get back in your boxes) 

I must admit I was a wee bit disappointed when I could not find on their page any Ian Blackford’s Billy Bunter Pies..... now that would be a best seller!
